Hillrise

Hillrise is a very comfortable, cosy but also spacious, home from home. The location and local amenities are great for walking & exploring the area. The owners had thought of every detail and we will definitely try to go back, perhaps when the days are longer as there is so much more we want to explore. It was also ideal for our dog as a separate area for her to sleep and back yard a good space. Thank you for a very enjoyable stay!...

Hillrise, in Glaisdale is a quiet, clean and well equipped cottage that is spacious and cosy at the same time. The two log burners are a great asset as they create an ambience that can't be achieved via central heating. There is a pub which is a short stroll down the hill (3 mins) which serves food of a decent standard. There's also a train station (!) that runs trains into Whitby every four hours or so. This is a great base for a holiday but there's not a lot for young children in Glaisdale itself. The house has a huge selection of books to read, along with a 'play' area with a Wii and other toys. Lots of DVD's to watch and the owners kindly allow you to use their Netflix subscription too. Book with confidence....

5* gorgeous location, lovely house. Excellent base for exploring. We visited Whitby, Scarborough, York, Middlesbrough, Saltburn, Harrogate and Bridlington. Beacon farm is amazing for ice-cream and delicious food. The kids loved the play room. WiFi was handy. Washer and dryer was a great addition. Husband was apprehensive about parking, but we had two cars and managed to park easily every day (just a few houses up the hill a couple of times). Highly recommend....
