From Our Guests
Boutique-styled, beautifully finished and brilliantly located — the easiest holiday we've ever booked
From Our Guests
Five stars, more than once.
"Dogs welcomed properly — not just tolerated. Beautiful walks from the door, the kitchen seats us all easily, and the beds are the comfiest we've slept in on holiday."
"Boutique-styled, beautifully finished and brilliantly located. We had the bedroom with the balcony — waking up to the countryside view was magic."
"An absolutely beautiful cottage. So thoughtfully decorated, the kitchen is a dream and the garden was a sun trap. Debra was wonderful with our two spaniels."
"Booked direct and saved over £100. The hot tub at sunset with views over the countryside was the highlight of our family week in Whitby."
Travelling as a bigger group?
Combine Dairy Cottage with our sister property, The Captain’s House.
Together the two cottages sleep up to 16 — perfect for milestone birthdays, family reunions and walking groups. Both are run by Debra, so you book once and we coordinate everything between the two houses.
