Vacation rentals in Great Ayton

What a stunning little cottage. Great space for me, hubby and our dog. The cottage has everything you could possibly need and more. It was very comfortable and cosy and the attention to detail is amazing. The welcome basket was an added bonus and very much appreciated. It was just a 5 minute walk into the centre of Bedale and it has everything you need.

We had a really lovely stay at this characterful home — it’s full of charm and personality, which made it feel really special. The added bonus was how well-equipped it was for children, with lots of thoughtful amenities that made our trip much easier as a family. Check-in was smooth and straightforward, and the host was incredibly friendly and responsive to any questions we had throughout our stay The only small observation is that it could benefit from a slightly deeper clean, as we did notice some dust in places. That said, it didn’t take away from how much we enjoyed our time — just something to be aware of for future guests. Would absolutely recommend and would love to return

Lovely stay over the Easter weekend! The house was spacious, well equipped, and had all the comforts needed for a sociable family night in. The bedrooms were all comfortable and we had two great nights’ sleep, and the en-suite plus main bathroom was a real bonus given there were 6 adults. We used the property as a base for exploring the local area, visiting Helmsley and Kirbymoorside and Rosedale Abbey over the weekend, and it was a perfect place to come back to at the end of the day. Helen’s instructions were clear and she was proactive and always on hand to answer any questions. Overall a great stay, and we’d definitely book again and recommend!

Myself and two friends recently stayed at Bay Tree Cottage for a long birthday weekend and had a lovey break. The location of the cottage is perfect, next to the harbour, in the middle of Staithes, close to local shops and amenities and some great local walks too. Watching the sunrise over the harbour in the morning was fabulous! The cottage was easy to find thanks to Kevin’s clear instructions and information provided, and inside exceeded our expectations. As a host Kevin was very proactive in communicating with us before, during and after our visit. We would recommend Bay Tree Cottage for a relaxing break and are looking forward to returning in the future at some point!

We had a wonderful stay at Sue's cottage on Market Square. Perfect position, for eating out pubs, cafes also butchery and a gem of a bakery around the corner. Would take my cup for a coffee and croissant for breakfast each morning. We did numerous walks during our week stay. Even took a drive over to Staithes on the coast. The Theakston brewery tour was informative in the history of this old brewery.Position perfect to travel east or west in the Dales & Moors. Loved it, thank you Sue for providing this cottage in Masham.

Absolutely fantastic stay! Beautiful shepherds hut in a beautiful location. Lots of lovely birds in the grounds, and even got visited by a small herd of deer. Jay and Callum are brilliant hosts, very responsive and helpful, and have put lots of nice little touches on the accommodation that make all the difference. Will definitely be staying again!
