Thixendale : locations de vacances

Comfortable well-equipped modern house a short drive from the coast, Bridlington, Flamborough, Filey etc. We also walked from the coast path back to the house across the fields. House is mainly comfortable although small double is, as described, a small double bed - so this room is not really sufficient for a good night’s sleep for a couple. Kitchen is well-equipped and there is plenty of parking (3 cars possible).

Lisa and Graham were exceptionally friendly from the start, but allowed us our privacy while we were there. Lovely touch having local biscuits and milk on arrival. Linen and towels in the bedrooms were lovely and fresh. The water is supplied from a local spring, and was delicious, and power from solar panels. The view from the kitchen/lounge was amazing - cute goats, sheep and donkeys just outside the door, and views over the hills to the sea. Watching the sunrise was lovely. The "Scratching Post" games room was fun, with fresh eggs and drinks available to buy and a pool table. Bring 50p coins! Really close to lots of walks - either straight from the door to Boggle Hole, or a short drive from Falling Foss with a beckside forest walk. Close enough to drive to Whitby for fish and chips, or Thorpe Stores in Fylingthorpe for a fresh bacon buttie from the friendly local shop. We'd love to come back and stay again.

An unusual tucked away single storey property, so much space for the 2 of us! Very quiet, off the street, with parking nearby. Conveniently located for beach or town. Comfortable bed and settees, cosy heating and all kitchen facilities. We shall return!

We booked Villa 2 for a family get together for a 70th birthday celebration. (8 including a child) The location is central and a couple of minutes walk to harbour. Check in was easy, the host Rachel communicated well and was informative. The kitchen was well equipped and very clean. Bathrooms were clean, towels, shampoo and shower gel were provided. All bedrooms had a wall mounted tv and storage. Parking permits were provided for the duration of our stay and after request we had a later check out time. (Which after a day of sea air and clocks changing thrown in there were some tired people)

Short stay but everything was as expected and will definitely book again if another reason to visit the area arises.

The house is lovely and well stocked. It is a home away from home with attention paid to the detail that makes a home. Sally was really responsive and helpful. We went for my mums 87th birthday and she loved being there and quite the accolade she said best nights sleep in a long time (she was in the small double room nearest the toilet), possibly helped with me waiting on her hand and foot. A lovely stay and Thankyou Sally.

If you’re staying in Pocklington then this house is fantastic. Huge! Clean! Warm and cosy. All the mod cons. Really really exceeded our expectations. It’s just a couple of minutes walk from Market Place. Only comment is that maybe there should be fans in all the bathrooms…otherwise, it’s like Dr. Who’s Tardis…way bigger than you think. Loved it.

My wife and I had a great stay at Maggie’s shepherd’s hut. The weather wasn’t great but the cosy hut and log burner made our stay comfortable. Maggie was a great host. Very friendly and welcoming. She was very informative and knowledgeable about the local area and recommended a great pub for dinner. We had a good breakfast in the tearoom to set us up for the day ahead. Overall we had lovely time and would definitely stay at Maggie’s Shepard hut again.
