The Nook Reviews

The Nook is such a lovely holiday cottage and super well equipped for everything you would need during your stay. Perfect location for beach walks at North Bay and the surrounding area so pretty. The garden is fully enclosed and not overlooked at all, and I LOVED the gas range in the kitchen. Hot tub an absolutely perfect addition and really aided our relaxation. Owner super nice he checked in with us on day one and then left us to it. Would highly recommend. Thank you for a lovely long weekend.
Caroline
Wow!! What a beautiful cottage this is ! Lovely, clean, comfortable, enough space for 4 adults. We brought our springer with us and she loved the garden she doesnt jump over walls so that was fine for us. The hot tub was brilliant, warm enough for a typical evening in June overcast
Lindsay
Beautiful property, we had a very comfortable stay. We didn't take our dog away with us this time, but the garden wouldn't be ideal for our dog, the walls are low, not ideal for a medium to large breed dog that likes to be adventurous. We would definitely recommend the cottage to others.
Rebecca
We had a lovely stay at the Nook! It catered for all our needs and our son enjoyed his birthday there too. The welcome hamper was a lovely touch and the location was perfect for a quick walk down to a secluded rocky beach, which was a hit with our 9 year old. We couldnt really use the garden sadly, as the wall was too low to secure our very nosy, bouncy young dog! But to be fair, it was too hot anyway during the heatwave! Paul also saved us when my husband forgot his jacket and wallet! He was so good as to post it home to us the same day life saver!! Thank you Paul! Would recommend
Charlotte
Lovely house and the host was great. Very comfortable and quite central so just a short drive to places to visit. The only thing is we came on a bank holiday and the pub next door was quiet loud until late a night. Apart from that the house was perfect. We enjoyed our stay and would love to return.
What a beautiful cottage. The property is spacious and comfortable with everything you could need for your stay. Loads of character and the hot tub was a lovely addition. The location is spot on with walks from the doorstep and a very friendly pub next door. Scarborough is just down the road with plenty on offer. Would recommend the Peaches and Cream ice cream parlour at the North Bay! Only thing I would mention is that the property has a separate down stairs WC which isn't listed on the description. Was a nice surprise as we were only expecting one toilet! Big thank you to the owner for the lovely welcome basket and for sorting the couple of small issues right away on arrival. Will definitely be booking here again, thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Sheila
This is our 4th visit and its still a very impressive property and we had a gorgeous stay. The garden has had some work on it which was lovely and we loved the picnic bench. The weather was really good for February which was a bonus. Overall another wonderful holiday and we look forward to returning soon.
Stacey
Thank you for providing everything to make for a very enjoyable stay! We stay at cottages and houses often and 100 percent will be back. Id say its the best weve ever stayed in. Great location, great communication, great value and everything you could ever need! 5 stars!
The cottage is cosy warm beautifully furnished and very clean also ideally situated for the Cleveland way walking and a good bus route, it's the second time we have stayed there and I am sure we will be back.
Staying at Paul's accommodation The Nook was a first class experience! The cottage was warm and inviting on arrival with a few special treats laid on. Any minor enquiries while staying were responded to very promptly. The cottage is spacious, well kitted out and combined a cosy feel with plenty of room. The hot tub was great as we're the local walks to the nearby waterfall was about 2 miles and just right for us. Eating places were plentiful, from next door or 3 mins walk, to a short drive. We particularly enjoyed an eatery in the quirky Robin Hood's Bay only 20 mins away. Paul well deserves his high rating for this superbly renovated and maintained property!
Philip
Nothing much further to add to all the complimentary remarks made previously in the visitors book all very comfy and cosy, especially the living room. However, if only to be picky, we did miss a teapot for our Yorkshire tea! and a coffee pot or cafetire would also have been useful. No shaving mirror above the wash basin!?. Wish we'd known about Thursdays fish & chips night at the Red Lion !.
What a wonderful place this is, very quiet, cosy and very clean. It has everything you need for your stay. Paul, the owner, is a very nice and helpful man. It has good heating and a hot tub too. Comphy bed and a very hot bath. The Local pub just across from the cottage is very nice too, serves food at lunchtime and is very quiet at night. Bus stop at the end of the drive towards Whitby and over the road to Scarborough. Booked already for next year.
Caroline
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Nook. It is in a great location within a short distance of lots of places of interest and lovely walks. The place itself was spotless and equipped with everything you need plus thoughtful touches by the owner who was on hand if there was anything extra you needed. It has a lovely enclosed garden which is a sun trap great for our dog, comfy beds with good bed linen and a brilliant hot tub. What more could you ask for? Many thanks to the owner and his team, we will be back
We had a great holiday here and highly recommend. However we would have liked an information pack, the garden could have been maintained more with a use of a garden table. However we really enjoyed the comfy house and bonus of the hot tub. Thank you for the food basket and milk for a welcomed cuppa after a long journey. We will mention to friends and family if they come to North Yorkshire for a break away.
This property was first class.
A fantastic stay, I cant recommend this cottage highly enough. From the welcome pack from Paul to the comforts of the cottage ensuring our week was everything we hoped for. Visits to Runswick Bay, Bridlington, Scarborough to mention a few not hindered by the high winds that occurred. Would definitely book again.
Anthony
Property was very comfortable, well equipped and loved the hot tub. Just clean the windows.
Sheila
Yet another wonderful stay at this beautiful cottage. It has everything you could need and more and love the hot tub. Great bus service which we used more than once. Really sad to be going home but we will be returning soon!!
Beautifully presented, warm & homely cottage. Great for exploring the nearby countryside. Hot tub a definite bonus after a long day trekking.
Jeffrey
Fantastic property and will go back. Only real negative is it could have more comfortable mattresses.
Very comfortable cottage. Excellent host. Great location to explore the area.
The owner provided an excellent place to stay that was well equipped and very homely. Would certainly recommend that people book The Nook for a holiday.
Lesley
We had a lovely stay at the Hook ! Certainly made our first visit to this beautiful part of the country enjoyable a long with the glorious weather! Lesley Peter and Locki Byrne
Louise
Great holiday home nicely situated off main road with private parking. Hot tub much appreciated by Mum.
Rebecca
My sister and I have stopped here several times and absolutely love it and have more trips booked already. The cottage is delightful and beautifully presented and the hot tub is a real bonus. The location is perfect for exploring this area and you can walk and get on the Cinder track and Cleveland way without going out in the car. There are several nice places to eat within the area. The owner Paul is great. Always available and leaves a really nice welcome pack and treats for the 4 legged friends too. Cant wait to go back.
Claire
An absolute gem of a holiday cottage. So warm, clean and comfortable and in a perfect location for the coast and countryside. The very friendly and helpful owner came to visit on the first evening to check everything was okay and had provided a generous welcome basket of treats including some for our dog! We had a really lovely short break and recommend this cottage very highly.
Steven
Fantastic character property,well presented! Hot tub is a welcome extra after a long day walking the dog! Perfect location,out of the way and literally a stones throw from the pub,which unfortunately we didn't get chance to indulge this time!! The only small negative was the height of the side stone wall in the back garden which our dog found great pleasure in scaling which meant we couldn't fully relax when in the hot tub,saying that we would highly recommend and would love to return.
Judith
Excellent as always Paul our second stay! ! One word Perfect!! Cosy warm spotless clean credit to owner we will be back, plus a bonus with hottub and beautiful weather cannot fault the nook
Victoria
The Nook is a beautiful, warm and cosy cottage in a delightful village. Paul, the host, was very welcoming and helpful and left us an amazing welcome basket with some lovely treats. The hot tub was a real luxury and the pubs in the village were very welcoming and did some lovely food too. Will definitely be back soon. Thank you
Cassandra
What a lovely little find The Nook was. It had everything we needed for a fabulous weekend away. So cosy and plenty of walks from the front door with our dog Riley although Scarborough and Bemton Cliffs are not far away. Just a tip take some bird seed for the birds which there is a variety. Also the garden was fully enclosed so didnt have to worry about the Riley the dog exploring whilst we were in the hot tub. Dont let the pub next door put you off no noise what so ever & Paul the owner was very accommodating but not intrusive. Wouldnt hesitate coming back to The Nook in the summer months so we could sit outside in the garden with a drink.
Elizabeth
A lovely cottage , friendly helpful owner.
Denise
Absolutely stunning house and location. ..lovely walks along the Cinder Path. Facilities in the house were lovely. Such a stunning home, warm, cozy and quirky. Right next door to a pub which is an added bonus as well as the hot tub. Host was very friendly and welcoming, and locals friendly too. Would definitely recommend to friends and would definitely return
An excellent property in every aspect, comfort, cleanliness, position, owner, everything We have just had 5 nights in this property over Xmas 2024 we thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our time there. Thank you Paul.
Lorraine
Absolutely stunning cottage. Beautifully furnished, very comfortable, warm & cosy. Lovely comfortable bed with quality bedding. Fab bathroom with a good size bath and powerful overhead shower. There is a good size oven and ample pots & pans for cooking with. Washing machine which we didnt need to use but good to see one there. Great secure garden for the dog and a hot tub that we didnt get to use as it was a tad cold outside! The cottage and garden were immaculately clean and very welcoming. Lots of nice goodies on a welcome tray, even some treats for the dog which was a lovely touch. This was really appreciated. Paul the owner stopped by on our first day to introduce himself & check everything was OK for us. This place was a real home from home and we didnt want to leave. Already booked a return visit, hopefully the weather will be kinder and well get to try the hot tub!
Sheila
This is the second visit and yet another amazing holiday. We did have an issue with the hot tub which was resolved and did not affect our stay. Can't wait to visit again
Jackie
Wonderful property, nicely furnished, clean and comfortable, good location, well appointed kitchen. Always a thoughtful welcome pack of goodies including treats for the dog. Our first choice property in the area with a great host. Already booked again for our 3rd visit.
Philip
Lovely stay with the family. Cottage was perfect and well equipped, with a lovely welcome hamper. Perfect location for exploring the North Yorkshire coast.
We were delighted with the house and our stay. The only facilities we would have appreciated being available are reading lamps in the living room. Thank you Paul. Valerie and Martin
