James

Ken was genuinely friendly, meeting us on arrival and giving us a good tour. The place is tucked away in a peaceful spot with breathtaking views. Definitely worth a visit!

Emma Thompson

The cottage was lovely and really comfortable, plus the hosts were super friendly and always on hand if we needed anything. It'd be great if the hot tub area was fenced off from the drive, so solo guests can enjoy it safely while dogs can run free outside.

Emma

We had such a lovely, peaceful escape. The host was really thoughtful and attentive, making sure we were comfortable. The surprise bottle of prosecco for our wedding was a lovely touch. We've already told loads of friends about it!

Emma

The cottage was lovely and super cosy, a great spot to explore from. We really enjoyed our stay!

Martin

Really enjoyed the stay, lovely place with a great hot tub!

David

Really enjoyed our stay, the cottage was charming and perfectly situated for exploring.

James

What a lovely spot! The place is spotless and the owner really goes out of their way to be friendly and helpful. We brought our dog and appreciated the big field for walks. Perfect for exploring great walks nearby, then unwinding in the hot tub afterwards. Definitely recommend for a relaxing getaway!

Emily Carter

We really enjoyed our stay at Little Haven. The cottage was super cosy and spotlessly clean, which made us feel at home right away. It's a great spot for exploring the stunning Yorkshire coast, especially with our dog, who loved having the field to run around in. The hot tub was a lovely treat after a day outand Ken was very helpful, making sure everything was in order. The layout was perfect for the four of us, including our two teens, with a nice open kitchen/dining/lounge area for family meals. The shower was excellent and the beds were really comfy, which was great for the chilly Autumn nights. All in all, we'd definitely recommend it to friends and family, especially those bringing their dogs along. We'd love to come back!

Emma

The place has a lovely, warm vibe and felt really homely. The owner was super friendly and helpful when we arrived, which made us feel right at home. We definitely want to come back!

Emma

We stayed as a family of three plus our dog and honestly, the location couldn't have been better. Plenty of lovely walks right on the doorstep, like Guisborough Forest, Cooks Monumentand a stroll around Great Ayton. The cottage had everything we needed to cook up a stormand there are quite a few dog-friendly places to eat nearby. The owner also has an adjoining field where our dog could run around freely, which was really nice. Overall, a fantastic holiday!

Emma

We had such a lovely time at Little Haven! From the moment we arrived, Ken made us feel really welcome and was super friendly throughout. The views are absolutely stunning, especially when relaxing in the hot tub - it's a real treat. We appreciated that Ken let us use the neighbouring field to give our dog a good run around, which was a lifesaver. The cottage was spotless and surprisingly spacious for just the three of us plus the dog. Our double bedroom easily fit the travel cot, which was handy. Overall, a fantastic stayand we'd definitely recommend Little Haven if you're planning a trip to North Yorkshire. Thanks again, Ken! We'd love to come back.

Emma P.

We had such a lovely stay here! The location is perfect, easy to reach Saltburn for the seaside and nearby towns like Northallerton and Guisborough for shopping. The little village of Great Ayrton nearby is adorable too. We loved having access to the field - perfect for relaxingand the hot tub was a real treat! The space was a good size with comfy beds and nice sofas, making it feel homely. The shower was hot and powerful, which was great after a day out. We appreciated the fridge, microwaveand even the takeaway menus - super handy. Milk, tea bagsand a hairdryer were a nice touch. Check-in and out were straightforwardand the laminate floors made it easy for our dog. It was his first holidayand the owner was very understanding. Quiet and peaceful, we all slept really well. We'll miss sitting in the field, listening to the birds with a cuppa in hand!

James

Great vibe, good times
