Holly Farm Cottage Reviews

It truly felt like a home from home from the moment we walked through the door. Owners have made the space so incredibly comfortable, and it is so well equipped with all those thoughtful touches that make a stay special. The cottage is in such a great location, too. It was the perfect base for exploring the local area and heading further afield for longer day trips. Highly recommend a stay here and we will be looking for a return visit.
Anthony
This is a fabulous property that is tastefully and well appointed. From arrival to leaving everything has been thought of and the welcome pack superb. The area is great for walking and close to every amenity. We would have no problem in refommending this property ascone of the best we have visited
Super property. Lovely hosts. A great base for our walkingphotography break. Highly recommended.
This property was presented very well. We arrived to a lovely welcome hamper which was considerate to our needs. The property itself was spacious with a lovely kitchendiner and living room. It was just like home from home with every aspect thought about from a guests perspective. The owners themselves had great communication ensuring a smooth arrival & departure. The bedrooms again were very comfortable with a lovely walk in shower in the ensuite room. Plenty of places near by to visit. If there was one negative and it is only a small one it is situated on quite a busy road so can be a bit noisy with traffic. Would that stop me from booking this property again? No it wouldnt but I know that wouldnt suit everyone.
Absolutely stunning cottage. Pristine in every way everything we could have wantedneeded and more. Exceptionally clean. Lovely owners. Welcome pack amazing. Thank you so much for making our weekend perfect
This cottage is wonderful. It is well cared for and maintained and very comfortable. The kitchen has lots of high quality equipment and there are thoughtful touches all around the house. We enjoyed using the outside space the table and chairs on the patio, the summer house, large bike shed and hose to clean bikes off. The communication from the owners was very good and the welcome pack thoughtful. A big bonus was being able to walk to the cliffs to see the birds. A great place to holiday.
Faultless, the property met every expectation.
This is one of the most comfortable cottages we've stayed in and we really enjoyed our week here. Everything was clean, beds were very comfortable, the garden was pleasant to sit out in. The kitchen was extremely well equipped and everything was of a high standard. Cooking was very easy and had all the items we needed. It's a great location for seeing nesting birds on the cliffs, easy walk or quick drive. Sharon and Mark look after the place very well and were at hand when we needed help with an item we left behind. Communication was good. We would definitely consider a return visit. Excellent welcome pack too.
An excellent property, with everything you need for a lovely stay. A lovely welcome pack was waiting on arrival. Good communication with the owner. The only negatives are that the hallway was dirty on arrival and there is some traffic noise. A great location for exploring the East Yorkshire coast. I would stay again.
Absolutely fantastic accommodation. We felt welcome from the moment we stepped in. Everything to the detail had been thought of and we had such a relaxing break.
Alastair
Would not hesitate to go back to Holly farm, we have been there twice already. Sharon and Mark are great hosts they make you feel welcome.If you like peace and quiet this is the place.
Barbara
This is our second visit to Holly Farm. Great property in a lovely village.
Tastefully furnished and decorated. Very well equipped,especially the kitchen, with good quality china, pots and pans. So helpful to have instructions for all the appliances. Our one query about the heating was dealt with immediately and satisfactorily. A very welcoming and comfortable place to stay.
Excellent holiday cottage with absolutely everything you need for a wonderful stay. Games to play, books to read and the most amazing welcome hamper! Thanks Sharon and Mark for a fabulous stay. We will be back xx
Louise
This was our second stay at Holly farm cottage. We decided to return due to the cleanliness and homeliness of the property. It is also ideally situated for exploring the local area. Attention to detail is evident in the property as soon as you walk in. Everything you could need is provided and some extras. Excellent property.
We found Holly Farm Cottage to be exactly as listed,and that was perfect for our stay. The owners,Sharon and Mark,go above and beyond to make you feel welcome,and you feel that they are readily available,should you need their help in any way.We could not have been happier.
Holly Farm Cottage is all you could ask for in a holiday let and so much more. It's a fantastically equipped cottage in a fabulous location. Loads of places to visit and things to do in the surrounding area and being able to go for a full day's walking on the coast path straight from the front door keeps us coming back. Proximity to Bempton Cliffs and the lovely puffins and gannets is an added bonus. Can't wait to return later in the year
This is our second visit to Holly Cottage, again spotless, very well equipped and comfortable. A must for RSPB Bempton cliffs and well positioned between Filey and Bridlington. Pete, Jeannette and Zoe Lawrence
Barbara
Best cottage we have stayed in. The owners have thought of everything. Thanks Sharon and Mark
I wouldnt book with Sykes ever again due to them taking the deposit immediately when only so much was available and then taking g full payment a year before the actual holiday.
Victoria
Fantastic property everything you could possibly need. Immaculate throughout. Maintained to a very high standard. Very good communication from owners. We love this property. In a great position to visit the East coast resorts & inland areas. In a quiet village. Perfect.
Holly fm cottage The cottage was beautifully presented, clean and comfortable. Everything a selfcatering cottage should be, every utensil you need and some. Ideally situated between Bridlington and fylde and belton cliffs just up the road. Highly recommended. Pete and jeannette lawrence
Lovely high end furnished cottage. Beds very comfortable and much thought gone into making our week a wonderful stay. Very generous welcome pack thank you! Close to Bridlington Filey & Scarborough.
Beautiful cottage in a great location. Will definitely think about booking it again next year.
Alastair
Amazing property. Everything was perfect. Hosts made us so welcome on our arrival. Cottage really well equipped. The welcome pack wow. Definitely will return!
Louise
This is one of the best holiday properties Ive stayed in. It was beautifully clean, had everything we needed and was spacious enough for 6 of us. Its very conveniently located to visit lots of nearby places. Would love to return again.
An amazing cottage! Very clean and has everything you could possibly need for your stay. We had great fun playing games from the selection available after our days out. In the information folder, there are lots of ideas for things to do and places to eat we tried lots of them. The welcome pack was perfect. It was great to be able to have a cup of tea and piece of cake after a long journey. All of the other goodies were enjoyed throughout our stay
Raymond
The cottage was delightful. Clean, comfortable and everything you could possibly need for a family stay. Sharon and Mark were very welcoming. I think it is possibly the best cottage we have ever stayed in and we have stayed in many cottages over the years. Thank you.
Jacqueline
If you ever have the opportunity BOOK THIS COTTAGE! Everything about it is outstanding. The hosts have gone to great lengths to make sure visitors want for nothing. Comfy beds, superior quality appliancescrockery, linen etc. Amazing welcome pack and a lovely garden with great little summer house. Also great location for nature lovers and walkers with Bempton cliffs just up the road. Would highly recommend this cottage to anyone considering a visit to the Yorkshire coast.
Kathryn
The main reason for booking this cottage was to visit RSPB Bempton which we visited four times in the week. There are lots of coastal walk nearby. Also, lots of nice beaches in the area. The cottage was exceptionally clean and comfortable with high end appliances. We would definitely book this cottage again.
One of the nicest and best equipped cottages we have stayed in. The owners attention to detail was fantastic and they went the extra mile with safety features and the welcome gifts. Couldnt fault it.
We had a wonderful stay, we would love to stay again and we would definitely recommend it to others. Communication was excellent, the property was as described and it was a great location to get to all local tourist spots. Parking was a big bonus, as was the quiet area closeness to the train station. We appreciated the well provisioned kitchen, welcome gifts, supply of teacoffee, comfortable beds and powerful waterfall shower in the large ensuite. The hosts were friendly, helpful and clearly care about the guests comfort and experience.
The property was spotlessly clean and came equipped with everything you could ever need. This combined with the excellent location made it an ideal base for exploring the Yorkshire Coast. Communications from the owners from booking to arrival was excellent.
Victoria
Another great stay at this lovely spacious property. Everything is of a high standard & has everything you could need. Cleanliness is outstanding as is the welcome package we received on arrival. In a great location to visit all the east coast resorts. Arrival information is the best we have ever had & nothing is too much trouble for the owners. 2nd stay here & we will definitely be back.
Debbie
Wonderful holiday cottage in a great location. The owners really have thought about every little detail. We will hopefully return in the future.
Holly Farm Cottage is a beautiful place to stay, in a well situated location for visiting surrounding areas and Bridlington. The owners have thoughtfully provided everything, and more, you could hope for to have a fantastic holiday, with excellent quality fixtures, fittings and linen. The welcome pack was luxurious and set the scene for the excellent quality of our stay. The garden, BBQ and outside patio set make this a great place to chill at any time, and the comfortable Summer House an added bonus for those balmy summer days. The owners, Sharon and Mark, were excellent in their communication throughout our stay and we would have no hesitation in recommending Holly Farm Cottage as your holiday accommodation on the East coast.
Lindsay
Holly Farm Cottage has everything you could possibly need a real home from home and its clear the owners have thought about how to make your holiday experience run smoothly. Spotlessly clean, great information and the best welcome tray ever! A great location for surrounding areas,weve really enjoyed our holiday and hope to return again soon.Thank you Sharon and Mark!
FIRST CLASS HOME FROM HOME. Sharon & Mark have gone to great lengths to make sure Holly Farm is maintained to a high standard. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
The house was immaculate and spotlessly clean on arrival. The service from Sharon & Mark was exceptional they even asked if there were any specific item's we'd like in the welcome pack and they responded instantly to a couple of text questions. The standard of fittings and equipment in the house was very high quality linen and Denby crockery etc.. There was a fantastic assortment of maps, books & games etc.. We really can't think of any way Sharon & Mark could improve the experience thanks!
This was the best holiday cottage we have ever stayed at! From the outset it was clear that Sharon and Mark would be fantastic hosts, with excellent contact prior to arrival, even allowing for customisation of the welcome pack, which was extremely generous. On arrival Holly Farm Cottage was spotless and even better than the pictures are able to do justice to. Every detail had been carefully considered with quality and design in mind. It was truly a home from home! A great location for both coast and country, despite the poor weather we experienced, returning to this fantastic property made this a relaxing break. I cannot recommend this highly enough and am sure we will be back.
