Beautiful little cottage central to Whitby town centre.
It had everything you would need on your holiday plus a beach on your doorstep!
We managed to find free parking for the week and just used the buses.
Booking was easy and any issues were resolved quickly.

The location is brilliant!

The location is brilliant, so close to Plymouth but very hidden away and unspoiled. The house has the most stunning views, it’s 180 degrees of the sea, yachts, cloudscapes, sunrises, sunsets, boats ships it amazing and a real joy. The house decor is quirky and interesting, lots of beautiful specimens of shells and seaweed. It is decorated to a very high level throughout. The beds are really comfortable, the linen is so luxurious. This was our second visit, and we loved it. It’s easy to book and there’s good communication. The office is really helpful. Parking in the village is brilliant £12.50 for a week.

The Cottage was lovely and in the middle of the village of Tideswell, Derbyshire. All the amenities were on the doorstep, lovely area for walking and close to Chatswell House. Thank you to Amy for sorting some minor issue we had. Very helpful and everything was sorted out very quickly.

Rented the Painswick ARCs for my 60th birthday weekend. Great location and facilities. Registering people staying was a little tedious but did not alter the great weekend we had. Emma and Kirsty were great.

Our lovely Welsh break

We had excellent contact and the information was correct about the booking. The property was as described and right where we wanted and met our needs very well.
So we were very pleased and would book with them again. Colin and Sue.

I'm almost reluctant to leave a review of our stay at the Old Vicarage at Talland because it's such a wonderful experience that it feels like a best kept secret. But for sheer pleasure and comfort amidst beautiful surroundings above a secluded Cornish bay, it seems unsurpassable.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Dart Retreat. The property was clean, comfortable and well equipped.
The booking process was very straightforward and the only issue concerning a payment receipt was quickly resolved after a phone call with a very helpful staff member.

Highly recommend a stay in Kelsick villas. We were a family of three and stayed in room Catbells. Very spacious with magnificent views. Very clean and tidy comfy beds. Stayed many times in Ambleside over the years and this is an absolute gem of a place. Friendly manager (Christian) who was very attentive. Used the parking pass which was a great bonus. Very central, will definitely return.

We have just spent the most incredible weekend with a huge group of us in Ty Penbryn in Wales and OMG. Not only was the property itself everything we needed and more for a varied group of people from kids to adults with all sorts of wants and needs the rooms and the house itself wwfe spotless. We could not fault it. From check in to check out the service and communication were excellent.

We are already scouring the website for our next stay!

Thank you so much for having us!

We loved the house

We loved the house. It was perfect for our family of 25. Ring o Bells is a great small locals pub, friendly staff & great food. If a big group then you must prebook, there was 15 of us and the food was fresh & hot.
Please note that the hot tub is advertised as wood fired, it's not, it's electric, so no need to order extra logs. We had a firepit, a wood fired bbq and still lots of logs left.
Please be aware that you have to keep noise levels to a minimum, noise monitoring in place. 60dB between 10pm - 8am and 75dB 8am - 10pm.
No outdoor use after 10pm, so everyone has to go indoors. Wasn't a problem for us a the weather wasn't good, very windy & wet so we were ok with it.
The staff are very helpful and always there to answer questions, couldn't fault them at all.
On the whole, we had a fabulous week and would love to return one day

Had a fantastic 3 nights in Cosagach Falls Scotland, cabin in the woods.
Peaceful retreat!
Just the right amount of required things in there although a better fridge would be useful as we ended up using the stream to cool milk etc.
Booking process nice and easy

We stayed as a family at Hickleton Hall at the beginning of June for a family funeral. We are originally from Thurnscoe, but now live in Scotland. We wanted somewhere close and a place where we could all be together. We had an amazing experience staying at the hall. It was absolutely perfect for us and we definitely would consider staying there again in the future.

Great service managing our two holiday lets

Since Marie (Finest Retreats) took over managing our two holiday lets in Cornwall, the service has been excellent. She is proactive, responsive, communicates brilliantly with guests, keeps occupancy strong, and deals with any issues quickly and professionally. It's a real reassurance knowing the properties are in such capable hands. Highly recommended.
