Self Catering in Yorkshire - Lingdale

Relaxing in rural area with sea views
We have just stayed in the Cow Byre. Being one of four barn conversions in a lovely quiet village. Pub is currently closed but there is a shop, post office, butchers, Hairdresser & chip shop. Having beautiful views over the fields, village over to the sea it is a beautiful location. You are in easy driving reach of Whitby, Staithes, North Yorkshire moors, Saltburn by the sea, Marske by the Sea & Sandsend. The Cow byre is disabled friendly with ramps & a wet room. In a corner so has two outside seating areas at the back over looking fields that our dogs loved. Bill & Sandra are close at hand but leave you to get on with your holiday. Very informative about the local area which was really useful. Everyone we met was really friendly, the whole area & the barns are spotless. Would definitely recommend .

Disappointed - misleading information
Lovely area. Clean cottage, comfy beds. Owners house very close - less than 3 meters from the holiday cottages. Open fields ? Not visible from the cottage. Private patio only accessible by leaving cottage via front door and walking around the building to the back. The only 'open field' was in use by dog walkers who weren't staying in the cottages. A second field contains a caravan. Not the place for peace and tranquillity to be honest. Owners very welcoming. Good access to Whitby etc.

Cottage in lovely setting.
This cottage was very small in main room with kitchen lounge and dining room all in one. The wet room was very good The stone floors were hard and cold as there were no rugs. Very plain and functional. The outside patio was lovely to sit out and had 2 meadows to take the dog. The furniture was old and uncomfortable .

Yorkshire haven for wheelchair users.
We had a great week in North Yorkshire. Our cosy cottage in Lingdale had everything we needed for a fulltime wheelchair user and her husband with welcoming hosts and impressive views over the moors to the sea. It was a really good base for exploring the coast with Saltburn, a Victorian spa town with real character, only a short distance away and iconic Whitby, half-an-hour away. Driving over the dramatic moors just added to the holiday.We'll definitely be back!

Lovely & in a great location for surrounding area
Wilsons Cottages have been converted from an old barn and The Cow Byre is one of four. Very clean and airy and more than enough room for 2 adults and a dog. The beds are quite comfortable and their is ample storage space. The cottage is well advertised as suitable for the disabled. The well equipped kitchen and lounge area are within one room. Being the corner cottage, there is a lovely sitting area in front of the back door and around the corner is another patio area. There is also use of the grassed farmers field for all four cottages. This is by no means a complaint but the only down side to the cottage we found was the inside seating, I am sure some people with certain ailments will find the style OK but I have a bad lower back/hip and could not get totally comfortable. Bill the owner is very friendly and informative and it was nice knowing he was close at hand if we needed anything. Of note, towels are not provided but bed linen is. The pub in the village has closed down but there is what looks like a very nice bar/restaurant, unfortunately though this did not have a beer garden so we were unable to go as we have a dog. The fish shop is excellent and the mini supermarket was well stocked. We would not hesitate to stay here again and have already recommended it to our friends.
