A very comfortable cosy cottage. Very clean..nice and warm. Quiet location. Bus stops very close by. Would recommend

Louise

This is a wonderful cottage with a thoughtful and kind host. From the lovely welcome touch of wine and biscuits to the super comfy sofa and bed, the cottage is a stylish home from home. The kitchen is well equipped and a good place to complete a jigsaw. My dog really appreciated all the thoughtful touches for her too, especially the biscuits. Thank you for a wonderful holiday, gazing at the stars and exploring the beaches and nature in Flamborough. A cottage I would like to keep returning to.

Charlotte

A lovely cottage that's easy to book. From the moment we arrived, everything was straightforward. The key was easy to find, and the cottage was spotless, beautifully decorated, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Steve and Gill were friendly, helpful, and easy to communicate with throughout the booking process and our stay. We would highly recommend this cottage for anyone looking for a relaxing break. The location is excellentit's within walking distance of the town and just a short drive from some lovely beaches. We stayed with our dog, and the cottage was perfectly situated for enjoying walks and exploring the surrounding area.

The cottage provided everything we needed for our stay. It's in a great location for visiting Bempton Cliffs and Flamborough Head. Would like to return in the near future.

William

A wonderful cottage. Stylish, cosy, comfortable, well stocked and a great location. Nothing to dislike. Will come again.

Spent a lovely restful few days in Puffins nest over May Day bank holiday with our labradoodle Dil. A cosy, charming, comfortable cottage with all the necessities provided. Didnt move the car, walked everywhere thanks to the helpful printed maps, locals very friendly when popping to the coop and fish shop. And something that doesnt always happen, plenty of loo roll!! The welcome basket was a nice touch along with dog bowls, treats and supply of essentials tea, coffee, salt, pepper, vinegar.. The owner was very helpful when contacting about a possible later check out. Will definitely visit this bolt hole again. Whole heartedly recommend.

A warm, cosy mid terraced cottage located 5 10 minute walk to village shops & pubs, with handy bus stop across the road. The cottage itself was super clean & comfortable and lovely to relax in after enjoying walking the coastal paths. A great base to enjoy the village & the coast.
