From start to finish, my experience of the accommodation and hosts was excellent.
There was friendly and helpful communication before and during my stay.
The cottage was beautifully prepared for my arrival with the chocs, biscuits and champagne others have mentioned. The house was warm, lit and welcoming, and the hot tub was already bubbling and ready to go.
The cottage was very clean, well equipped and comfortable, with pretty much everything you could want - and more. Wifi was great.
I had brought all my food with me as I intended to leave my car gathering dust for the week, but there were quite a few nice pubs and tearooms within a few miles walk - or a short drive of course.
There was plenty of walking in the immediate area, on the Cleveland way (visible from the house) and the great Cinder track, which was ideal for walkers and cyclists, and on the permissive paths, one of which you use to get from the farm road to the Cleveland way.
I had a truly relaxing week. The hot tub was fantastic to sink into after a long day's walk, and the views from the tub across the countryside and to the sea were amazing. Of course, I was in there every day, what a treat.
