Prospect Farm Cottages

Beautiful barn conversion in an old farm courtyard, (more properties at this location). Tastefully decorated, clean and everything worked as it should . Efficient heating , meant it was a cosy place to stay. Situated on the edge of the N Yorks moors, handy for Whitby and Scarborough. Picturesque Thornton le Dale next village, with Pickering 10 minutes further. One of those places we could easily go back to.

After a frustrating arrival, The Sinnington was very cosy and ideally located for Thornton Le-Dale and the Dalby forest. The cottage is open plan with a balcony style upper floor. The area was fairly peaceful with access to many pubs, restaurants, tea rooms, and cake shops.

We arrived through open gates and realised we had no idea which cottage I'd actually booked. (There were no details provided on Booking.com.) There seemed to be no one to check us in, so a quick call to Martyn soon resolved the issue. However, we were ignored by what seemed to be two people chatting and unloading timber. After talking to Martyn, one of the two people acknowledged we were actually there, we believe the owner's son. Once in the cottage, we found mouldy crumpets and out of date toasted tea cakes in the bread bin. After a frustrating arrival, we decided to walk into Thornton Le-Dale when we were challenged by someone from inside the main house, through a window, asking if we were actually staying at the cottage and had we checked in. The final straw was only one breakfast bowl, side plate, and juice glass in the cupboard when the Sinnington cottage is for two guests. Martyn rapidly provided the missing bowl and glass after a quick message. The shower temperature cannot be adjusted without being freezing cold or scalding hot. The door to the property is tricky to lock and unlock. The fridge door doesn't always close properly. There were no cleaning products apart from a near empty bottle of washing liquid or complimentary biscuits or chocolates as advertised. The hand soap in the bathroom was empty. Attention to detail and cleanliness could really improve the guest experience.

Amazing facilities in an excellent location

quiet location

Beautiful location. Lovely clean property.

Low vaulted ceiling in bedroom. Not great to manoeuvre.

Great location with secure parking. Everything you need is covered in the cottage.

No where to sit and relax. Bench seat outside the cottage and the Garden area has a pub style bench but you can’t really relax either.

It was easy to find, well maintained, clean and ideally located for our Needs.

It wasn’t a problem for us but it would be better if it had explained in the description that the parking is a few meters ( uphill) from the property . Anyone with joint issues etc would struggle.
