A Moors Week
Idyllic country cottage property: very private location, but easy to access local facilities and attractions. Super views from the property which was well equipped and very comfortable. Great place for a week away with Family and Friends, so much to do an enjoy in this part of Yorkshire

lovely house but some mishaps
A lovely house in a lovely place. Our stay was marred by the septic tank overflowing, but this was sorted after a few days. We would have expected to be told beforehand that it was unwise to drink the water. The supply of mineral water was limited to one 5 litre bottle. There were other factors which made our stay stressful, but these were not related to the house.

Get Away From Covid
Due to Covid there were only two of us staying at the property . However everything was fine although adjusting to an electric AGA took time. The details for finding the property were a little scarce and if we hadn't had a smartphone with Google maps we would have had a major problem

A welcome break from lockdown.
We took our two teenage children, their grandma and 3 dogs. The house and grounds were beautiful. Beautiful surroundings and everything you need for a relaxing break. Great local walks and places to eat and only a short trip to the coast. We’d definitely book again!

A Great Stay
This property is superbly situated either for adventures on the moors or fun at the coast. There are also some lovely walks directly from the property, and the local pubs serve very good food. The property manages to be extremely cosy whilst benefitting from extensive views to the rear aspect. Just great!

Rural retreat
Super cottage accommodation set in a superb elevated location overlooking the Esk valley. Handily located for yorkshire moors and coast, we had a fabulous week exploring the area. The cottage was perfect to return to of an evening, to relax in comfort and recharge the batteries. Highly recommended and would hope to return.

Amazing cottage in stunning setting!
Our family had an absolutely wonderful stay at Blue Beck Cottage. It was perfectly situated for what we wanted - coast, moors, and easy access to other villages and York. We loved the area and took advantage of the many nearby walks. The house was perfection. It was super comfortable and had everything we needed. We really appreciated all the high-end amenities - it was a total pleasure to spend time in the kitchen. The small details like the decor and the heated floors really made us feel like we could relax. And the views out the back were simply stunning. We enjoyed many hours out there just watching the clouds, reading and communing with the cows and sheep in the neighboring field. We didn’t want to leave and can’t wait to come back!
