Tawny Owl Reviews

Jane
Wonderful property virtually on the Cleveland Way and a short walk in the village of Staithes, where the Cod & Lobster is a real treat. The hot tub is divine after a day of hard walking.
Sheila
The cottage has very little natural light and is dark and dingy, also very hot during our stay

Louise
We had a wonderful stay in Tawny Owl. The cottage has everything you could ever need, plus we were left some goodies for when we arrived which was lovely! The hot tub was wonderful and much needed after lots of walking and exploring. The walk into Staithes is easy and it is a lovely little village to walk around (we recommend food and drink at the Read moreCod & Lobster). Fabulous location with many lovely beaches, walks and nice towns close by. We will definitely return, thank you. Hide
Jane
We love this cottage! It was our second stay at tawny owl and it is a great place to stay. We love the location, a short walk to staithes and within east reach of lots of other great places. Its clean and cosy, and the kitchen is surprisingly well equipped. We loved the hot tub and there was plenty of space in the house for us - family of four - foRead morer a week without feeling cramped. You can hear the road from the property but it didnt bother us.

Belinda
Beautiful accommodation in a perfect location .Would highly recommended. The cottage had everything you needed. Hope to return in the future.
Kenneth
Fabulous location and lovely cottage. The water was cold the first morning (COOOLD SHOWER). The weather was so warm we didn't have the heat on... and it seems like the heat has to be on for the water to be warm. I heated one-half of the cottage (the bedroom we didn't stay in) and the second morning the water was warm. So we figured it out. LovRead moree this place. Will stay again soon! Hide

The Grainary Wildlife Farm - YO25 3HS
about 16 Miles
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.
Scarborough Sea Life and Marine Sanctuary - YO12 6RP
about 21 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 21 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.
Peasholm Park - YO12 6QQ
about 22 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.
Betton Farm Visitor Centre - TF9 3PS
about 23 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. 
Flamingo Land - YO60 7EW
about 25 Miles
Situated in Malton in North Yorkshire this has to be one of our favourite family days out.  It's a theme park and zoo all in one stretching over a massive 400 acres. With thrilling rides for the very daring like Cliff Hanger, Corkscrew and Kumali, there are also more gentle rides for the little ones such as Frog Hopper and Helitoys.  Family fun attractions include the 4D cinema, the lost river ride and the Little Monsters Den of Mischief. Check out their website for seasonal events which take place throughout the year and you can also gain more information about the zoo.  Flamingo Land is a resort as well as a theme park so you can also book accommodation there.
