Rose Cottage is potentially a great stay. The location is excellent with convenient off street parking. The property is furnished to a high standard and it has a lovely, modern kitchen.
Unfortunately it was let down on this occasion by a lack of attention to detail by the management company. We paid a 15% premium over similar properties, expecting to get some extra 'luxury'. We were left disappointed.
There were too many small niggles which could easily be avoided. Host & Stay were responsive, but the overall impression was that we should be grateful for what we did get, even though on arrival the 1st thing we had to do was go shopping for what we thought were essentials (like toilet roll).
We provided feedback during our stay. Hopefully this will be used to improve the experience for future guests.
The niggles didn't put us off enjoying the facilities in walking distance of Rose Cottage, but next time we visit the area we will try one of the other properties, not hosted by Host & Stay

Lovely, cosy cottage and much more spacious than expected. Very quiet yet so close to the centre of Stokesley which is a lovely town with lots of restaurants and pubs. The bedrooms were spacious with extremely comfortable beds. We had a great family weekend away and a bonus that we were able to bring the dog. Everything we needed was provided and Charlie from Host&stay was very friendly and communicative before our stay…thank you!

We had a lovely weekend with Family .
The cottage was very clean and tidy and was very well laid out .
We especially liked having two bathrooms and living rooms .
The village was just outside the cottage door , lovely for a morning walk to the local coffee shops for breakfast .
Brilliant communication from the host .
Would love to visit again .
Thankyou for making our family break a special one xx

The cottage is very well situated and has a lot of character.

There were no wardrobes or cupboard space in two of the bedrooms which made it difficult to store clothes and suitcases. We had rented for 6 people but there were only 3 mugs in the kitchen. We were each given a bath towel but not a hand towel- there was only one in each bathroom. There was a tiny tablet of soap at each handbasin but no other toiletries at all were available. We felt it was a shame as these small details that could be easily solved would have made a difference.

Comfortable and convenient in a great location

Information on local amenities was lacking even on the weblink. Also, the Wi-Fi details were incorrect- a letter was missed out from the password.

When we are travelling with children and my elderly father, bathrooms seem to be rather important. This property has a full bathroom upstaris and another upstairs as well as a converted wardrobe in the master bedroom that has a toilet and sink (much to the amusement of our children).
Nice, enclosed accessible outdoor/decked area at the back of the property.
Great to have a second lounge. gave the children their own space (would be even better if this room could have a TV in though)
Nice clean towels and bedding.

The parking wasn't really accessible for us on this trip. There is a small lane (mud with grass down the centre) that was water logged and we didn't want to chance getting our car stuck. We parked on the High Street over night and moved the car at 8am each morning. (Overnight is fine, and then with a parking permit - available in many of the shops on the High Street, free of charge, you can park for 2 hours.)
The cottage is an old property and as such, has a few dents and marks (including on doors and carpets). I was initially worried that we could have been blamed for these as there's no mention when the deposit it taken.
The kitchen could do with a bit of a sort out. It's as if someone has bought huge amounts from a charity shop or has inherited lots of old crockery and left it in the cottage. Six of everything would be plenty (therefore leaving space in the kitchen to put food) rather than having 20 dinner plates, side plates, bowls of different sizes etc etc.

I loved how this house had so much accommodation for our whole group. I felt the layout suited our needs well. The owners have made many thoughtful touches. Staying here allowed us to enjoy the North York Moors and Stokesley.

I spent a lovely few days at Rose Cottage with my sister and niece. We were visiting family in the area and it was located beautifully for us. The cottage had a lovely comfortable lounge, it was maybe a little cluttered with a table in the middle of it and extra chairs. The kitchen and bathrooms were clean and bright.

Very comfortable for three people to have own rooms and great location. Convenient parking nearby on High Street. Stokesley a lovely village.

The key safe by the front door was very difficult to open and needs replacing. The rear safe good.
Couldn’t turn on downstairs shower, and a loose tap in en-suite. Also need to be aware of steps up and down into rooms.
No instructions re electric fire.

the location

the property was ok, but it was very dated, which was ok. the problem was cleanliness, it didn’t feel very clean. The skirting boards were very dusty and the floor of the kitchen area wasn’t clean, as our socks became very dirty straight away. There was stuff everywhere in the kitchen and the tea towel, that had been put out for us had a hair on it and it didn’t feel clean. There was a kitchen brush, next to the sink that was very grubby.
The shower in the downstairs bathroom didn’t work and the light switch sometimes didn’t switch on and sometimes didn’t switch off.
The second lounge and the bedroom above it were freezing, even with the heating on.
The car parking space, is just on mud and no path to the rear of the property.

Lovely house for the weekend - bigger than expected with two receptions and decent sized bedrooms. Really great location just of the high street of Stokesley which punches well above it's weight for cafes, pubs and restaurants. Easy drive to the hills.

Parking was a bit odd and down a track that some cars might struggle with. But not a big deal as the road is only 50m away and has plenty of space.

Upstairs was fine. 3 clean bedrooms with comfortable beds. Downstairs carpet and furniture were filthy with pet marking. Host promised to clean, then wrote to say the carpet could not be cleaned during our 3 night stay. Spent the 2nd night elsewhere to allow the Host to clean. Hosy refused to refund, Airbnb intervened.

The location is perfect, beautiful little market town and surrounding countryside:)

The red sofa in living room - very aged and not very clean.
No washing machine - this was a little bit of set back as you expect to have it when booking a house.

Great stay in a brilliant location. seconds away from the high St. We were a family of 6. 4 adults and a 5 and 7 year old. Ample space for us all. Property looks small from the outside but it's actually very roomy and clean. Definitely a home from home stay. 2 big bathrooms with bath a d shower and a 3rd toilet in the middle bedroom strategically located in the wardrobe space! Great idea! Lots of local info in the property. Excellent communication with the hosts. No problem with parking. Brilliant stay overall!

The property is fantastically located in the centre of Stokesley. Numerous bars and shops on the doorstep. Lots to do in the local area as well. The photos show the property at it's best and some areas could do with a bit of TLC, but comfortable and functional. Fine for the price.

Lovely cottage in quiet, characterful alleyway convenient for shops and restaurants in the beautiful Yorkshire market town of Stokesley. Cottage is well equipped and is deceptively large on the inside.

A nice place to stay. Very centrally located - just off the Main Street but very quiet.
A bit like the Tardis - looks tiny from the outside but a deceptive amount of space inside.
Finding the location can be a little tricky - but once you've tracked it down it is a doddle.
Clean - comfy - well equipped - would highly recommend it.
Would happily stay again

I have tried to be kind with scoring 3/5...
This property is in need of maintenance and is very tired throughout.
Upon arrival there was what looked like brick dust all over kitchen side that had not been cleaned up after works.
The upstairs toilet was broken and needed to remove the toilet top to be able to manually work the flush mechanism
There were dirty pots and dishes in cupboards
Thick dust on most doors
One of the couches looked like it was ready for the tip... all worn and faded
The boiler leaked onto the microwave
Overall very poor standard & value for money!
Shame really as location is superb for central Stokesley
