洛克裡弗農家樂(Rawcliffe House Farm)

What a wonderful find - this perfectly peaceful place offering cottage and holiday lets was ideally located for Pickering, the North York Moors and on to Scarborough and Whitby. We'd selected a one bedroom cottage - Hindburn - which was fully equipped with a great kitchen - fridge/freezer, microwave, toaster, some lovely crockery - dining table and chairs plus two cosy armchairs in front of the fire in the main room. The bedroom next door was bright and airy with plenty of storage and led directly to the ensuite. Both the main room and the bedroom had vaulted, beamed ceilings and the cottage had lots of nods to its more traditional past. The ensuite was great, with ample towels and a really good shower. The surrounding land is farmland with sheep and cows in neighbouring fields and ducks and chickens on the farm around the pond. Each holiday cottage has furniture to the front and rear of the properties to make the most of outside space - when weather allows. We were unlucky to visit when a wet weather system had been dominant across the north of the country for some time which meant everywhere about was quite wet, and we had cloudy skies so couldn't experience the night skies we'd hoped to with the stars and planets on show. Our hosts, Duncan and Jan, were great to chat to, full of helpful advice as to places to visit, local pubs, shops etc and in the cottage was a pack containing lots of walks or drives for those wanting to explore. They were also really accommodating in the lead up to our stay. Lovely people. We definitely hope to come back, maybe more Spring time next time though!

Booked on the spur of the moment; Jan and Duncan are the perfect hosts - polite, friendly, helpful and the accommodation was impeccable. The farm is situated in a stunning, peaceful setting with beautiful views and within easy reach of the coast and other beautiful inland locations.

I returned to Rawcliffe House Farm Holiday Cottages after several years, this time as a solo traveller. I stayed in Hindburn Cottage which was immaculately clean and extremely comfortable. I was only here for 4 nights and wished I could have stayed longer. I definitely will be back,hopefully next year or sooner. Jan and Duncan are very friendly and approachable and should be very proud of what they have achieved.

Had a wonderful stay in the Walcott studio for two nights. Good location for Whitby/Scarborough and the Yorkshire Moors. Would recommend visiting The Blacksmiths Inn Pub, about a 15 min drive away. The hosts provided local walk suggestions, with directions and maps, we completed two walks which we would never had located otherwise. Such a peaceful and quiet location, with all the amenities you could need. Lidl/Coop are about a 15 min drive away in Pickering. Will definitely be visiting again.

Wonderful hosts and accommodation. Everything you need for a home from home. Truly peaceful location on the Yorkshire Moors. The whole family loved the animals on the farm, especially the goats Bill and Ben. Whitby, York and Scarborough all close by to drive to, but also plenty of walks around the moors are on the doorstep.

A lovely farmhouse stay in a self-catering room. Everything was squeaky clean and worked. We were unlucky to have cold weather and continuous rain! Our hosts supplied additional heat and were very caring.

The cleanest holiday cottage I've ever stayed in Beautiful location, Jan and Duncan are wonderful people can't do enough for you will definitely be returning Well done guys 5 stars + Internet speed great also
