Quakers Cottage, HINDERWELL

Rated 3/50 by Mary O on 15th July 2019

"This is a lovely comfortable cottage. It is a good base for exploring both the coast and North Yorkshire Moors. We were made welcome by the owners. However the cottage is right beside a main road, A174. This results in a lot of traffic noise which can be heard inside the cottage even with the windows shut. We found the road was very busy early evening so sitting in the sunny courtyard to relax after a days walking was spoilt by hearing the sound of cars, buses, lorries and bikes zooming past."

"So I booked this as a little winter weekend get away. What appealed to me was the location close to Whitby and Runswick bay only a 5 min drive away it was ideal for us. When we arrived greeted very nicely and made to feel very welcome. The cottage it self is amazing inside and I was better than I could have imagined. No issues at all. Will look to stay again in the future."

"First time booking a cottage for our annual Whitby holiday. Arrived early Friday evening, was really easy to find, there are some steps to the patio doors where you enter (instead of the front door) into the living area, and kitchen. The cottage was decorated lovely, plenty of space for the 2 of us. Having a downstairs shower room was great as we don't tend to us a bath. Lots of storage space in the garage and the washing machine is a fab touch. Upstairs the bedrooms are lovely, again loads of storage! Mattress on the double bed was far too soft for us (we sleep on a super firm at home), so used the 2 single beds which were fine. Lots of practical touches, like a bathroom jug and jewellery dishes in the bedrooms. Cottage is on a main road, and as your right on the end of the village, cars zoom past, but this can't be heard with the windows closed. Parking is 30 seconds away. There is off road parking provided behind the old school and plenty of road side parking. We would definitely consider booking again"

"We stayed in June, and arrived in a Heatwave, we have been looking forward to being away all winter. Charming cottage and modernised to high spec. It was like a tardis inside so much bigger than we expected . Lovely bathroom upstairs. The bedrooms are pretty and beds were so comfy, downstairs open plan kitchen and sitting room with french doors to a cute outside sitting area was just perfect to have your morning coffee and to relax in the evening. Ample storage space and garage too, to do washing. Bonus was downstairs shower and toilet. Our holiday is also a working holiday for us. Hubby draws caricatures in whitby shambles. Up at 6am and off before the hustle and bustle starts we enjoyed our drive along the coast with wonderful views. Fossilling at Staithes Port mulgrave just down the road, with stunning views. The owner we met twice on our first day funny kept bumping into him and we visited his father's butchers shop in Hinderwell. Which sells everything!! Main shop at Staithes so everything to hand. We had a wonderful time and are booking next year. I did not want to come home. The cottage is on on a main road, but I sleep in ear plugs so didn't bother me. Hubby sleeps like a log so his snoring was actually louder than any cars! Forgot to mention WiFi was a bonus specially for our grown up daughter thankfully. All was good. "

"If you are used to living on a main road without a garage facility then this is for you. It is very close to a road which starts up at 5.30am with workers (possibly going to the potash mine),buses, lorries, delivery vehicles and normal traffic. There is parking but not outside, though you can stop, it's round the corner in a communal car park. OK, just. Clean, warm and we'll furnished, and the owners are lovely but peaceful it's not.access is in a narrow 'garden' and better use could have been made of the attached garage which is clean and could be used but is not."
