Beech View Reviews

Darryl
Having stayed in this little hide away, we are hoping to have many more stays in the future. It's private and with birds that are friendly come to eat food put out for them. Bed is comfortable and in good condition. I requested a shower slip mat the 1st time and there was one provided in our 2nd visit. Everything we needed for a long or short break. Best jacuzzi we have used too. Mrs pickering is a lovely lady too.
Andrew
Would like to say thank your for a lovely stay. We loved everything about Beech View. This was like having a secret garden stay. Absolutely amazing! We will be back again
Jean M
Really felt it was just a couple of nights for the hot tub stay, bed very comfy but no room to move when it was up, loads of unused drawers but no cupboard for cereal bread or anything that didnt go in fridge, toilet and shower very tight. The garden was lovely but the hot tub used most of it up , the hot tub was very good, and the owners were very nice. Wrong place for us Im afraid due to age and ability
Lovely little place to stay clean comfortably and with a lovely hot tub really ... Lovely little place to stay clean comfortably and with a lovely hot tub really enjoyed how private it was and so close to centre
Joanne
Absolutely
Exactly as stated cosy cottage which is very compact but it does have everything you need. The main plus points were the garden which has a big hot tub and is very private. The location is also great with pubs and shops within walking distance as is the train station which you can hop on to York or Scarborough. Only one suggestion maybe a few more pics of inside the cottage as I don't think you realise how small it is until you get there. We were out all days and didn't do much cooking, our preference is it perfect for a short break instead of a week bust if you like compact and cosy it's perfect.
The only downside to our stay is that 2 nights was not enough which was our fault entirely. From when we arrived and opened up the wooden gate and stepped into the most glorious paradise garden it only continued to delight. The owners have thought of everything, teacoffee and milk so a nice brew could be had on arrival, even an ice making machine for the all important drinks there after. The bed was extremely comfy, the cottage was warm and bright and immaculate. Best for us though was undoubtedly the hot tub..... Big enough for a football team, it was awesome!!! We would love to go back...... Just need to decide when.
Rebecca
The garden was beautiful! Hot tub was brilliant and it was in a really good location. It was very compact inside but with it being great weather we didn't mind. Was really clean and the bed was comfy. Would definitely stay again
Melissa
This is an amazing little cottage! It has everything you could possibly need. They give you a little bit of milk in the fridge, tea bags, coffee, sugar. It has luxuries like it has a ninja air fryer, an ice maker, a smart tv with Netflix on there, an the most important one a hot tub! The place was very private and very clean and I cannot fault it at all! The owners were lovely and welcoming. There is a folder in there will instructions for every appliance in the cottage and everything in there tells you everything you need to know for your stay! I definitely recommend Florios for food which is a 5 minute walk away as the food was incredible and service was excellent! There is so much to do around there and it is so peaceful. We had a power cut on the first night and the neighbours came into the garden after to make sure everything was back in and that we were okay. It was a lovely place to be and we will definitely be going back! 1110 recommend!
Jacqui
So relaxing, beautiful garden, enjoyed watching the wildlife from the lovely hot tub. The cottage was so cleverly thought out, amazing how much fitted in a small space but everything what was needed for a great stay.
Absolutely beautiful little cottage. As described, lovely garden and hot tub. The fold down bed was really comfortable, upon folding down the bed it created a gap between the top of the bed and the wall. Bolster cushions were provided to fill the gap. We found these worked to a degree but not ideal. They were aware of this and asked for suggestions. I thought maybe some firm cut to size foam pieces would have been better. The cottage in general was very clean , however the shower floor appeared not to have been cleaned since last used. Maybe this had just been missed. Overall a beautiful private little cottage in a lovey location, two minute walk to the centre of Malton. Tip for anyone's birthday, sign up to the Talbot hotel birthday offer . If you eat on your actually birthday and can show proof , they give you a free main and desert off the main menu . Lovely hotel and delicious food there too.
Was a beautiful stay. Perfect little house for a short break to recharge your battery's, they have utilised the space perfect. If your looking for a small break with your partner then I would definitely recommend. Thanks again
This is our 5th visit and it never disappoints. It is the perfect get away, and the hot tub is brilliant no matter what the weather. We just switch off and recharge. The garden is lovely to relax in too and is so well kept. Can't wait until next year. Thank you!
Darryl
Needs a slip mat in the shower. It was a bit slippy on the steps and getting into the hot tub. The electric socket next to the light needs securing. Table needs a bit of attention cos a bit loose. Be nice to have a couple of trays.
Beverly
Another lovely stay. Beech View is an ideal base from which to enjoy and explore the area. We visited Castle Howard, Flamborough Head, Scarborough and the delights of Malton on the doorstep. Returning to Beech View after a lovely day out is a joy. It is warm, very clean, has every facility you need and the bed is comfortable with lovely fresh bedding that always smells lpvely!. The private garden with hot tub is a delight to sit in and enjpy a relaxing evening. Very friendly hosts and a fuss free check in. Thank you Brian and Libby. We hope to visit again. Bev & Kev
Samantha
Absolutely fantastic little hideaway with lots of local facilities as needed. If you are looking for a cosy little place with a beautiful garden away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, then this is the place for you. We have stayed here for the last few years for a winter break and it never fails to give us exactly that.
Such a gorgeous little cottage, with a lovely secret garden and relaxing hot tub. The bed was extremely comfy and the owners couldnt have done anything better for us. The place had everything we needed, and Malton had loads of nice places to eat and supermarket was down the road. Just beautiful, would definitely go back
Could not of asked for anything more
Matthew
This is a superb weekend getaway for a couple. The residence is a converted barnsummerhouse which is very cosy and had tons of amenities including a small fridge, smart TV, 2 cooking hobs, convection oven microwave and an ice maker! There is a binder on arrival with lots of useful information about all the various machines and how to use them as well as providing tips for your stay and information around beddinglaundry etc. The garden is in a private courtyard with the main attraction being the hot tub it's wonderful to relax in peace and quiet under the stars in a lovely picturesque way. The village itself is only a 35 minute walk downhill and has lots of good places to eat, local shops to explore and some great places to drink I would recommend the brass castle taphouse. Will definitely be coming back!
Debbie
We had a lovely week at Beech View. The garden is beautiful and we used the hot tub daily. We travelled by train, and the station was only a short walk away. Location was ideal for us and there was plenty of places to eat and enjoy a good coffee. We got the train to Scarborough and there is also the coastliner bus. We didn't explore as much as planned as we enjoyed the peace and tranquility of the garden, relaxing in the hot tub. The accomodation is compact but it is exactly as described. Wardobe and unit for clothing and there is an enclosed shower and a separate toilet. There is an airfryer, 2 ring hob, microwave, barbecue, cafetiere, toaster, iron and hair dryer. Towels provided plus spares and separate towels for the hot tub and a portable airer for drying outside. The bed was so comfy and we slept really well, open the french doors in the morning and listen to the birds sing. We thoroghly enjoyed our stay, would we return.....absolutely.
I have used Sykes Cottages for about 25yrs in the North Yorkshire moors area this cottage is the only one I've had a complaint with. The main complaint was with the shower which didn't work very well,also the flexible pipe from the unit to the shower head was absolutely thick with black mould as was the jointing between the tiles and also the woodwork.the towels were in need of replacing some nice fluffy ones would better than the ones supplied. I made my remarks in the visitors book and vacated the premises 24 hrs early. Within 1hr of me leaving I received a text from the owner agreeing their were issues with the shower but because they were booked up back to back they hadn't time and as soon as they got a break they would attend to the issues, to me that isn't acceptable, there is no excuse for poor hygiene standards. The black mould in that shower cubicle has been gathering in there for months not weeks but I gave them a 24 hour break by leaving early, hopefully they will be able to tackle the problem ready for the next holiday maker.
Alexandra
A great property, the most private hot tub we have ever found in a gorgeous secret garden. The property is small but is fully equipped with everything you need we usually stay for a full week so have used the cooking equipment, entertainment etc. the tv is logged into Netflix, Amazon prime etc, and there are dvds and books available. There is tea and coffee and a small jar of milk on arrival. Absolutely loads to do in and around Malton some great cafes would recommend Leonis and Lutt & Turner, also The Talbot has a lovely terrace with great views if you get a sunny day! Easy train access to York and Scarborough both worth a day trip. Also worth a walk out to wharram Percy medieval village with a picnic. Also some fab outdoor activities locally we did Go Ape at Daley Forest and then hired mountain bikes, there were also lots of hiking routes there. I could go on! This was our second year and we will most likely be back again next year
We had a lovely stay. The location, the lovely setting, the studio itself and the lovely private garden were perfect for our one week break. The studio is small but it had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The owners have really tried to think of everything. The bed pulls down from the wall but was very simple to use and very comfy with really nice quality bedding. We slept incredibly well. We cooked in on some days and enjoyed our breakfast and evening meals sitting in the garden. Even when it rained, we could keep the doors open and sit under cover, There are plenty of shops and supermarkets within walking distance and also a variety of places to eat out too. The setting was the main wow' for us. Looking out from the studio into the lovely garden with the lovely view of the hotel and it's grounds in the background was great, especially as the sun started to go down. We used the hot tub on several evenings. It was great, very relaxing. Someone mentioned the small bathroom as a negative. We didn't have an issue. There is a full sizefull height shower and a loo with small sink. Both have doors and are private so as long as you are a couple who are used to sharing your spaces, I wouldn't let anything stop you enjoying this lovely place.
Joanne
Extremely happy with our stay at Beech View. Lovely and clean and equipped with everything needed for our short stay. Very peaceful, perfect for a quiet getaway. Hot tub was an added bonus. Would stay again and would recommend. Thank you.
Claire
Fantastic stay, the hot tub and private garden were the real selling point and the cottage itself had everything we needed. Super comfy bed made for a lovely relaxing break. The owners clearly put a huge amount of effort into making the place perfect and were extremely attentive. Thank you Libby and Bri
Lovely little cottage,second stay. It is very small but in good weather the garden makes up for that.Malton is a nice town but like others has lost quite a few pubshops.Owners Brian and Libby very friendly and helpful
What a lovely idyllic little find, the most picture perfect cottage. Everything you need to relax and unwind. Only a 2 minute walk from the town centre. Can not fault it. Would definitely stay again

Had a lovely stay here, location was great and we thankfully had beautiful weather which made use of the outdoor space even better. Bed was extremely comfy! And the hot tub was just what we needed after long days of walking If we were ever in the area again I would definitely be back
Kathleen
Booked for a week and only stayed 2 nights. Not for us, photos of bathroom facilities need to be added to site, I would not have booked had I seen pictures. Chairs not comfortable. I realise it has limited space but everything was an effort. Hot tub was nice.
Another fantastic get away at Beech View. Only slight hiccup was an issue with the Hot Tub one night, but the owners were prompt in getting it looked into, and working fully again. We really can't fault anything at all except that our stay went too quickly!
Excellent little cottage with everything you need complete with hot tub. Would definitely like to go back again.
Teresa
Lovely homely cottage. Excellent facilities. Very clean and garden also very neat and tidy. Nice to watch the birds on the feeders each day and even the squirrel enjoying his self. Clear access instructions by text.
The property was lovely, well equipped and clean. We had a lovely relaxing stay.
Josiah
The property was lovely, well equipped and clean. We had a lovely relaxing stay.
Beverly
Lovely relaxing stay. Property was clean and had everything we needed and more...Bed very comfortable and sheets smelled lovely! Beautiful garden and the hot tub was to die for! A couple of points that would add to the comfort factor for everyone...In the rain, the hot tub could still be used if it had some kind of covershelter overhead and given this is Yorkshire this would be beneficial. Also the reclining chairs may benefit from seat cushions or new seat pads as they have been well used and not as comfortable as they were....especially for us oldies... Apart from that, a lovely stay. Thank you.
My partner and I had a 4 night stay between Xmas and New Year and we absolutely loved it. The accommodation was easy to access, it was spotlessly clean and exactly as described on the website. The hot tub was a god send after spending our days site seeing and walking in the cold and rain. The facilities within the cottage are just right. There is a hot shower and it is hot and an integrated fridge and even an air fryer which you can cook almost anything in as well as a two ringed hob. The cottage is just a short walk from the town centre and local amenities. You get a designated parking space. Overall, it was just what we needed and we would definitely use again if our travels took us back to that area of Yorkshire.

Tractor and trailer rides around the maize are also available and are recommended for those with young children.
Betton Farm Visitor Centre - TF9 3PS
about 15 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.

Within the site is a discovery centre, several pits filled with Roman and Medieval ruins and a science lab where children can take part in exciting experiments. Staff are on hand at all times to help the children and to ensure they get the most from the experience. The attraction can get busy during school holidays and pre booking is recommended.

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.

about 18 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.
Scarborough Sea Life and Marine Sanctuary - YO12 6RP
about 19 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.
Sea Life Marine Sanctuary - YO12 6RP
about 19 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.
Stillingfleet Lodge Gardens - YO19 6HP
about 22 Miles
A day trip to Stillingfleet Lodge Gardens is the perfect way to relax with several gardens to explore in the grounds of a historic farmhouse. The gardens were established 30 years ago and each has something different to offer. Expect to find dramatic displays of foliage and flowers as well as beautifully landscaped areas. Families will enjoy the woodland which leads to a wildlife pond and a beautiful wildflower meadow.
