A beautiful cottage in a glorious location!

The attention to detail in the cottage is impeccable. We found everything we needed and the view and welcome were amazing. Sarah was very responsive and we loved our cake and Prosecco on arrival. We will highly recommend this to our friends and family. And hopefully be back ourselves!

Beautiful cottage

A beautiful cottage with breathtaking views over Runswick Bay. Spotlessly clean. The owner has thought of everything and on arrival there are fresh flowers, bread, jam, milk, juice, prosecco! And a delicious sponge cake! As it is the Easter hols we were even treated to some little eggs and choc bunnies for the kids. There is an impressive selection of board games. The cottage is right next door to a quiet pub that serves delicious meals. Can't recommend this cottage highly enough. We've stayed before and we'll definitely book again!

Amazing cottage with fabulous sea views

Another amazing stay for us at Galleon House. Definitely one of the best cottages we have stayed in. The views are so calming, we particularly love watching the sunrise and walking along the beach. Sarah is a fabulous host providing everything you need to make your stay a home from home. The welcome pack is outstanding, homemade cake & jam, bread, milk, butter, Prosecco and fresh flowers. Can’t wait to return.

Wonderful Winter Break

Galleon House is a fantastic cottage. Great views across Runswick Bay. Perfectly located. Very comfortable ( especially the beds ) and absolutely everything you could need is provided for that 'home from home' feeling. Great communication from Sarah ( who kindly returned a 'phone charger we had left behind ) and a lovely welcome pack of cake, bread,jam & prosecco on arrival. I highly recommend Galleon House as a holiday destination and we will certainly return again. Paul & Gill.
