  We have just returned from our Easter weekend stay at Granary Cottage.

  We had a very friendly welcome from both Debra & Mark. A welcome basket of Chocolate Eggs, Biscuits and an Easter card with a handwritten message awaited us, there was a pint of milk in the fridge and a vase of daffodils on the coffee table. The cottage is tastefully and comfortably furnished in keeping with its character. It was very clean and there was everything there that we needed. Mark happily helped out with some WD40 when we had a slight issue with the lock and quickly came to our rescue when ‘someone’ accIdentally switched off the hot water instead of the heating on the control box. We had hot water again in minutes. ‘Someone’ also managed to leave their phone charger and Debra sent us a text to let us know and had offered to send it on to us. The cottage is so peaceful despite being on a working farm and there was no movement of tractors and other farm vehicles before 8am. The location was ideal for us as we were visiting elderly parents in nearby Scarborough and it gave us a restful comfortable break away from the Easter Holiday crowds. The villages of West & East Ayton are just 1.5 miles down the road with a Spar supermarket, couple of pubs serving food , petrol station, and a lovely Fish Restaurant. From Ayton you can easily access Scarborough and the other coastal towns of Filey, Bridlington & Whitby in one direction and Pickering , Mallon, York , Helmsley in the other direction. The cottage is an ideal base for walkers or cyclists , there are the ruins of Ayton Castle and the very pretty Forge Valley Woods Natural Nature Reserve which takes you along a quieter route into Scarborough. We can highly recommend Granary Cottage and will certainly return.

  The Granary was all we could have wanted.

  Comfort, cleanliness, all necessary facilities. Absolutely perfect for our two doggies being on ground level with doors out on to the fenced in patio area and then out into the open tracks and fields. Beautiful setting with great views from "the bench" and endless walkies. We are coming back in December when the weather won't be as good as we've just had but we'll cope ! One caveat though .... and this is nobody's fault .... if you go in summer as we've just done make sure your dogs are treated for ticks. We had several removals every day and it's not pleasant. It can't be helped but take care. Other than that no problems at all and we'd highly recommend the Granary. The upstairs Granary Loft also looks excellent but is ony for two people plus dogs.

  Just had a lovely weeks stay at the granary cottage and it surpassed our expectations.

  Debra and Mark and the whole family were very welcoming, helpful and knowledgeable about the surrounding area, advising us on the best walks and places to visit. It was ideal for walks with our 2 dogs Flora and Skye from just outside the front door, and they had a fantastic time too! Was lovely to see the baby calves in the field directly across from the cottage. No need to drive anywhere if you didn't want to. The welcome basket and flowers were a lovely touch....Flora and Skye loved the dog treats!! Every finishing touch thought of. A very enjoyable and relaxing stay....and we will be back next year. Many thanks Debra and Mark....and the whole family

  Wow, what a wonderful place this is.

  Absolutely everything you need in a holiday cottage. Lots of things we didn’t expect, fresh eggs and milk, local biscuits were waiting for us when we arrived and a lovely vase of flowers. A truly idyllic location on a working farm, would be a lovely place for a family with children. So nice to wake in the morning to just the sounds of the countryside with no traffic. Lots of lovely places to visit nearby with places to eat and of course Scarborough if you want the beach and more entertainment. Marc and Debra the owners are always around with advice on where to go. It also truly dog friendly. We can’t recommend this place highly enough.
