Summary: The cottage is stunning and the location is perfect for what we needed. The separate chalet with one of the double rooms was useful for this as it meant my parents didn't have to manage lots of stairs.Its a 20 minute walk outside of Whitby (mostly downhill after a sharp uphill, remember that on the way back!) and that walk is very picturesque with some great views across the countryside.Currently the narrow lane alongside the cottage is closed to vehicles, which if anything is a good thing as the road is even quieter than it might be - it'll slightly slow up your drive if you want to head to the Abbey though.The garden is large and the covered pergola means you can enjoy sitting outside with the BBQ even if the weather is a little changeable. When we were there we saw ducklings on the little stream that runs through the garden.It is possible to have 2 extra beds put up on the mezzanine "snug" - but I'd say these are only suitably sized for children and if they're up there than noisy adults in the living room below might keep them awake. It worked fine for us, but something worth bearing in mind.

Summary: Our family had a fantastic stay. The cottage and its grounds were beautiful.
Zoe C. May 5, 2025 10:33:19 PM
Summary: Just arrived home after a 3 night stay at Larpool Mill; the most breathtaking accommodation we’ve ever booked. Our faces when we arrived said it all! This truly is a home-from-home equipped with everything you need inside and out, with very cute welcome goodies, ample space for a large family and tranquil outdoor setting for evening gatherings. The decor (as a cottage girl geek) was out of this world. Credit to the owners of this hidden gem. We will absolutely be returning. 10/10.

Summary: Cottage and surrounding grounds were wonderful. Ho wever on our booking it said there was a hot tub so we booked expecting a hot tub. Turns out there wasn't one. Had we known that we would have booked in Whitby itself rather than the outskirts, Host was apologetic and website has been rectified, We had a lovely stay,just not the one we were hoping for

Summary: We stayed for 3 nights and loved every moment of our stay. The cottage has absolutely everything you could need and comfortably accommodated 9 adults and 5 children. We were blessed with sunshine so we got to enjoy the stunning garden, watching the children play in the stream. Absolutely perfect weekend.
