Gough Bank Reviews

A lovely clean well maintained property in an ideal location. Central location in Flamborough village but with lovely walks along the cliff tops and to the nature reserve. Our second visit and wouldnt hesitate in booking again.
Lovely cosy two bedroomed house situated in a very quiet area in Flamborough. Clean and tidy with private parking and an enclosed paved area at the back, very safe for pets. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you would need. The house is close to pubs, fish and chip shop and a Coop. There is a large green area nearby to walk doggies. Its about a 3040 mins walk to the cliffs and beach at North Landing.
Have had a few breaks at goth cottage never disappointed good standards very clean and presentable private and good location recommended. The only problem now is the prices are starting to rise so have to be selective when booking.
4 of us spent 3 nights in Gough Bank. Lovely property everything you needed to make your stay comfortable. Spotlessly clean throughout. Location perfect right in the middle of the village. Definitely recommend

Great place to stay very clean good location for lots of walks.
We have just had a lovely 2 weeks at Gough Bank. The property is exceptionally clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. Being situated in the heart of Flamborough there were pubs that served lovely home cooked food, 2 cafes and 2 fish and chip shops. Ideal for anyone who doesn't want to cook. Plenty of places to visit nearby and North and South Lounding beaches both 1 mile from Flamborough so can walk to them. We would highly recommend this property and definitely somewhere we will stay again. Thank you to the owners for providing such lovely accommodation and thank you for the welcome wine and chocolates.
