Kittiwake Reviews

We had a family break including our dog, had a great time, lovely accommodation, had everything you need, comfortable and felt secure If there was any issues it would be that its pet friendly but out the back its not fenced off so the dog couldn't be let off the lead to run around. Also inside the main bedroom and bathroom, for someone like myself who is 6ft the slopeing roof and beams were a problem, obviously it's part of the structure of the roof, but this didn't detract from our break, its very close to everything, short drive to Bridlington, bit further for Scarborough. One thing if your planning on eating in the accommodation most nights take plenty of food and drink as there is no supermarkets nearby. However had a great time, highly recommended.
A really pleasant place to stay very clean and tidy. My only concern was the bathroom floor was very spongy to say the least other than that it was a very peaceful and comfortable place to stay
A lovely cottage which was spotlessly clean. Great to have towels ect to clean dogs as weather was atrocious. Only thing I would suggest that it could have enclosed garden which would be good in the summer as you could leave door open for dogs
Home from home, everything inside was absolutely perfect. A very high standard. The shared garden with the other connecting cottages are Beautiful, but boundaries are unsafe for dogs

Absolutely lovely stay. Really nice clean and spacious. Would definitely go back.
We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely return. The cottage really was a home from home, it had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The thoughtful basket of dog supplies and selection of teas and coffees were also a nice touch and very appreciated. All in all the cottage was perfect
Rebecca
Perfect for us and the dogs a few issues with the WiFi but otherwise no issues.

The holiday cottage was nice and clean but attention needed to some aspects Coffe Machine not working properly and leaked badly Fridge freezer badly needs defrosting, drawers in freezer difficult to open due to build up of ice Bathroom door did not lock Would not recommend Sykes Cottages due to inaccuracy of listing ie enclosed garden, also very difficult to speak to anyone and didnt respond to emails. Only made verbal contact when the owner of the cottage got involved
The beds were comfortable The location is ideal for us We felt at home in this spacious property We liked the welcome pack for our dog and the drinksbiscuits for us We liked the night lights in the property The only downside were the settees They were too low and not comfortable for us and no enclosed area for our dog Lovely place though. ...we will be back again
Firstly, the main complaint we had was the no secure garden for our 3 dogs. The cottage next to us did have a fenced off garden. We were informed by the maintainer that all the cottages are being given Fenced off gardens gradually as we were not the only people to complain. The electric oven didn't work, so we had a new one two days before leaving. So prior to that we were using the microwave or going to the local pub, that was brilliant food. There was no vacuum, broommop in the cottage so it was difficult to keep the floor clean . We don't like to leave any property with mess. My husband did get a vacuum from the laundry room wasn't sure if that was correct.The area wasn't ideal for dogs, we only found one good beech for them to have a good run around.

The only reason I scored a nine for comfort was that I did bump my head a couple of times upstairs on the low beams. I am six foot tall so this maybe more of a problem to someone taller.
We all enjoyed our stay at Kittiwake. Everything that we needed for our stay was provided for even the dog was provided for. The location was perfect with parking straight outside the front

Scarborough Sea Life and Marine Sanctuary - YO12 6RP
about 16 Miles
If you are enjoying a lodge break in the Yorkshire Moors and Coast then a day trip to the Scarborough Sea Life and Marine Sanctuary highly recommended. This centre is one of the regions most popular attractions and is educational as well as fun. Visitors will enjoy a journey beneath the waves, meeting many strange, beautiful and fascinating creatures of the deep. As well as mighty sharks and beautiful rays guests can get up close to some more common creatures including star fish and can also meet the otters, seals and penguins at feeding time. The site also has children's play area and picnic tables as well as a restaurant and souvenir shop. Family tickets cost £46.80 but the Tourist Information Centres in Scarborough, Whitby or Filey often offer fantastic discounts.
Betton Farm Visitor Centre - TF9 3PS
about 16 Miles
Betton Farm Visitor Centre is the ideal attraction close to the North Yorkshire coastal town of Scarborough. This animal farm has all the cute farm animals you would expect to see and will appeal to younger children especially.  A great place to both play and learn we think the Betton Farm Visitor centre is great value for money.  Check out their website for the latest opening times and admission costs.  Some of the highlights of the day might include meeting Sofie the Shetland Pony and Henry the goat, as well as the pot bellied pigs called Porky and Hammy. 
Sea Life Marine Sanctuary - YO12 6RP
about 16 Miles
Located in the Scalby Mills area of Scarborough this makes a fun family day out for those who are interested in marine life. The fantastic ocean tank is well worth seeing - it's been transformed into a Turtle Reef and you can see an amazing array of colourful reef fish and coral. You may also catch a glimpse of the tropical sharks and turtles. Offering good value for money this is a day out with a difference and an all weather attraction.
Peasholm Park - YO12 6QQ
about 16 Miles
This attraction is ideal for sunny days as the beautiful park is ideal for wandering out and taking in the scenery.  You can hire boats including rowing boats and canoes to enjoy the views from the water.  The pedalos with the dragon heads are always a popular choice too. Look out for special events including the Battle of Peasholm Park Naval Battle which has been described as a "must see".  You can also take a ride on the North Bay Railway which will delight children.
The Grainary Wildlife Farm - YO25 3HS
about 22 Miles
Located in Harwood Dale Village, North Yorkshire we think this attraction makes a superb family day out and couples will also enjoy the nature walks in the area.  There are 6 nature walks in total surrounding the farm so walkers and lovers of the outdoors will be in their element. Some of our favourite walks include the Spring Flowers, Pond and Village walk which takes around 35 minutes, and the Meadow and Trees walk which takes one hour.
Madhyamaka Meditation Centre - LL21 9NG
about 27 Miles
Madhyamaka Meditation Centre  a unique and very special centre in the Yorkshire moors offering amazing meditation experiences for experts and novices. The beautiful setting really ads to the experience and the gorgeous grounds are abundant with wildlife including Squirrels, Deer and Birds including Red Kites. The centre is now offering a special weekend retreat for families which includes family friendly guided meditations as well as fun activities such as face painting, games and a barbeque.

There is also a fantastic restaurant over looking some of the displays and a souvenir shop. Family tickets are priced at just £32.00.
Flamingo Land - YO60 7EW
about 27 Miles
Situated in Malton in North Yorkshire this has to be one of our favourite family days out.  It's a theme park and zoo all in one stretching over a massive 400 acres. With thrilling rides for the very daring like Cliff Hanger, Corkscrew and Kumali, there are also more gentle rides for the little ones such as Frog Hopper and Helitoys.  Family fun attractions include the 4D cinema, the lost river ride and the Little Monsters Den of Mischief. Check out their website for seasonal events which take place throughout the year and you can also gain more information about the zoo.  Flamingo Land is a resort as well as a theme park so you can also book accommodation there.
