Cottage vacation rentals in Westow

We absolutely loved our stay. The cottage was beautifully decorated and well equipped, making us feel right at home. The area and scenery were beautiful, making for the perfect relaxing stay.

3 Railway Cottage is a fantastic base to explore the amazing beauty of North Yorkshire. The cottage is located a 20 minute walk from the centre of Pickering but is in a really quiet and private location. The only exception of course is the opportunity to wave at the heritage railway trains that pass at the back of the cottage a few times a day which is really amazing, especially if you wave from the comfort of the hot tub! I can’t recommend this location highly enough, it is a really comfortable and well equipped cottage in a fantastic location - what more could you ask for?

We have just had a fantastic stay at The Lamp Post. We were absolutely blown away by the accommodation. Steve and Andrea have thought of absolutely everything. The whole place is luxury and pristine. The hot tub is so easy to use and definitely an extra added bonus to what is a beautiful place to stay. Thank you so much - we will definitely be returning!

We had a fantastic stay here for 4 nights. It was beautifully clean and had everything and more we needed. Such lovely hosts, very responsive should you need them. Great location! Such an easy drive to a lot of places. We visited Whitby, Scarborough, Pickering, Thornton Le Dale and more! All under 1 hours drive away. Cottage is so homely and very welcoming 😊 Amazing that each room has their own en-suite. Beds are so comfy! Downstairs bedroom was great for us with someone in the party having mobility issues. Games room is a fabulous touch! Sauna and hot tub both very clean. Highly recommend to stay here. Thanks for a wonderful stay 🥰

Lovely cottage in a great location. Walking the surrounding area from the house was great and very near to a pub and tearoom which both served great food. The hot tub was an added bonus!

Really enjoyable stay. Everything was perfect, and I would return if I were back in the area. The location was peaceful, private, and surrounded by beautiful nature — exactly what I was hoping for. The space was spotless, cozy, and thoughtfully designed, with all the amenities I needed for a comfortable and relaxing getaway.

Lovely relaxing cottage with everything we needed. Very cosy and relaxing setting with great views from back windows. Enclosed garden for dog or children. Hot tub was a great perk which was well used by us. Rillington village within 10 min walk which had a small shop and a nice pub ( the fleece). Tips for other travellers The fleece in rillington has a nice garden of weather nice and the food was nice too and dog friendly Ham and cheese which is a 5 minute drive the food was very good and dog friendly too although probably too far to walk Lots of walks nearby, we went to dalby Forrest, mallyham spout in goathland and Levisham near Pickering New Connie’s Chinese in malton was also very good

Amazing house absolutely lovely area and just gorgeous I had the best time xx

Excellent stay in Pickering, the house is exactly as described and more! Very well equipped and a real home from home. It is on one of the main roads but as others have said the thoughtful ear plugs made all the difference and we had no problem finding parking every day. This is a fantastic base for exploring the local area. Highly recommended

just returned from holidaying here- June 2025. Myself, kids and the dogs, and we absolutely loved our little peaceful break away, which was much needed. *Spotlessly clean. * great location for exploring Beningbrough hall. * Lovely quiet garden * off road secure parking * Tesco food delivery is available which saved us fetching shopping, as the car was already packed to the rafters we took the dogs, but the weather was schorchio, so majority of our time was spent just relaxing & enjoying the garden or going inside to cool off. The hosts Rebecca & her hubby were absolutely faultless / super helpful & have thought of everything, we were kindly left some milk & some other essentials, even had some treats for the dogs, & more importantly a fan for the hot weather which helped immensely. Not a bad word to say about the place. or hosts, book & enjoy. i would recommend others to visit here. hoping to go back in the cooler weather so we can do more exploring.

We had a lovely time at Fuschia Cottage. It felt welcoming and cosy. Everywhere was clean and tidy. The kitchen was well equipped and the milk, tea and coffee were welcome. Maybe the addition of some salt and pepper would be good but this is the only suggestion. Kirkbymoorside is very well placed for the coast and the North York Moors. Overall a fantastic stay. We will be back, Im sure.

Skylark cottage is in a lovely spot, a perfect retreat from busy life and a really calming space inside and out. It was spotless, cosy and well equipped. The newly created wood was a joy to walk through and our dog loved it here too!

What a fantastic little cottage, perfect for a weekend away. Lovely hosts and perfect location for exploring Yorkshire, we would definitely recommend and hope to visit again sometime.

We enjoyed a lovely stay at this amazing little cottage, the cottage is beautiful and we can't wait to return.

Lovely and peaceful, the accommodation was very homely, the shower and the huge bath was amazing, the bath towels were lovely and soft, I would recommend this lovely home to anyone who wants to visit North Yorkshire, we visited Scarborough, York and Whitby. My 2 Labradors Betsy and Barney thoroughly enjoyed the beach at Scarborough and Whitby. Most of the areas we visited welcomed dogs, which was amazing. There is a nice shopping centre called Monks Park, half an hours drive but worth the drive. There are some lovely restaurants there also. Would not recommend the Indian in Malton, very disappointing but the Indian in Pickering called Spice 4 U was very nice and reasonably priced. Thank you Carol for sharing your accommodation with my family.

What a lovely cosy cottage, small but perfect for the 2 of us plus dog. Very dog friendly and totally secure. Very clean and well equipped with good wifi. The locals are a little precious about "their" parking spots but that was easily overcome. Would definitely recommend for a relaxing break.

The Spinney is a cosy comfortable cottage and is well equipped. The location is in beautiful countryside and ideal for a peaceful relaxing getaway. Micheal is a lovely Host and made us feel very welcome. Nothing was too much trouble and he was always interested in our adventures. Both he and Caroline were so friendly and helpful. A wonderful place to stay.

We visited Joanna's cottage to celebrate my husband's 50th , as a family of 4 with two teenage sons. We were excited about visiting Yorkshire, as a new County for us. It did not disappoint! We arrived to a lit log burner, fresh sourdough bread, luxurious butter, fresh flowers throughout, chocolates and other personal touches, that made us feel like we were in a 5* setting. The cottage is fully equipped and also has books, board games , maps and guides. The roll top bath was a real treat and all the provided soaps and moisturiser, was from local purveyors in Helmsley and Wetherby. Both Joanna and Phil gave brilliant advice of where to eat and places to visit. Even though they live on the grounds, you felt like you were very private and had the whole grounds to yourself. The location is perfect to visit York, catch the Yorkshire Heritage Train to Whitby from Pickering and to visit many picturesque villages with welcoming locals and inviting ancient pubs and churches. We will be back

Nice comfortable stay. Perfect base for visiting the places we had planned. Would recommend booking a table at the local pub, 30 seconds down the road. Don’t be put off by this as there was no noise or disturbances. Lovely playground a short walk away.

We have thoroughly enjoyed an all too brief, relaxing stay at Tarrs Yard. From entering the charming cottage, to leaving, one can't fail to be impressed by all that Lizzie and Andy have so stylishly created. The helpful, informative folder inside the cottage provides for guests' range of interests and enables visitors to capitalise on the hosts' wealth of knowledge and experience of the area. We can't wait to return and anticipate discovering more of what this area affords, whilst assured of a restful, peaceful property to daily return to. Thank you to you both for our introduction to North Yorkshire.

One of the best Airbnb cottages we have stayed in…recently decorated, tasteful furnishings, lovely gardens and everything we needed for our stay. It is a 30min walk into town, but is a flat walk along the old railway track so an easy stroll. We went to Beadlam Grange Cafe for breakfast which is a 5-10min stroll from the cottage too.

We had a lovely peaceful stay at the Granary. The cottage was spotless and Kate was there to greet us. It was a bonus to have the local pub within walking distance and serving delicious meals. My wife and I would certainly recommend staying here.

This was our second stay at the property and it was just as brilliant as our first. Plenty to do within driving distance and a lovely local area to go walking. The property is beautiful and our 5 year old boy loved it even more than last time.

Our second stay in this beautiful holiday home. Immaculately presented and lovely hosts. Great location, quiet but ideal for walkers and those on driving holidays. Also excellent for any one with mobility problems. Handy for Dalby Forest, Whitby, Pickering, Scarborough and the many lanes less travelled, fabulous scenic views and picturesque villages that North Yorkshire Moors has to offer. Also handy for the North Yorks Steam Railway. Our favourite and most perfect holiday haven and we will return again in the future.
