  Nice, but kitchen needs improving, and equipment checking over!

  Nice location, plenty of room.

  Uncarpeted stairs felt a bit dodgy as they were quite steep! The kitchen was underequipped, no tea towel, or kitchen roll provided, which I would consider basic kitchen equipment. Also no soap, or much toilet paper in the downstairs toilet, so had to buy more not long after we arrived!. The cooker hood was set at an absolutely ridiculous low height, and made of glass, so this made it a bit more invisible. Both my husband and son caught their faces on it. Were plagued with at least 4 flies in there during our stay, which was annoying when trying to eat!!! Also the dining chairs were so heavy to move!! Dirty trays, and glasses also found, so maybe previous people hadn't washed up properly!

  Great stay, beautiful house. Small areas need attention to detail, cobwebs in the bedrooms, not enough rubbish bags left

  Lots of space, plenty of pots and pans, comfy beds, great location

  Could do with a bit of extra attention to detail in cleaning- lots of cobwebs and some flies even tho it wasn’t excessively hot and actually rained for our entire stay

  Good family home , great location

  Great room for large family including a separate escape lounge with TV. Great local friendly pub next door with excellent Sunday Lunch ( it’s a quiet pub and quiet area). Food location close to beaches

  No real outside facilities, weed covered and broken seat. TV facilities ie Netflix were not available as advertised ( this was due to previous guest login out in error, however previous guests also left their own Amazon Prime accounts still logged in which is a common rental guest error!). PS4 in secondary lounge not working . Hob/oven extractor hood at a dangerous height and caused a few bumped heads .

  Such a beautiful house in a lovely little village

  We have just returned from a 5 day stay here. 3 adults and 4 children. The size of the house is perfect for such a large group. We loved the 2 sitting rooms which both adults and kids enjoyed thoroughly. Plenty of books and board games. We got the kids into monopoly haha. The bedrooms are all such a good size and plenty of wardrobe storage. Lovely clean bedding and towels. This property also has 3 toilets and 2 bathrooms. Perfect! Loved having the garage part which had the washing machine, dryer and freezer. Washing machine is great with kids and also was able to get some done before heading back. Outside had a lovely courtyard with a table. We found that there was plenty of hot water for us all, also had enough toilet rolls and there was also cleaning products too. The ship inn pub next door is definitely worth a visit. If eating then definitely recommend booking. We spent our last night here. The food is beautiful homecooked. Such a lovely village. 5 mins away to filey in car/bus and the coaster bus stops right across the road, heading both to Scarborough or bridlington. Great communication with the host also.

  Ideally a larger towel (bath sheet) would be better suited and maybe a bit more attention to dusting. However, it wasnt that bad, but was noticeable in areas but this could be due to not being used as much?

  We had a wonderful stay and would definitely return especially to go to eat at the pub next door!

  There is plenty of space in the property, it was ideal because we took my young grandson and his friend and they loved having their own lounge to play games etc. The kitchen is also well equipped with plates,cups, dishes and cooking trays, pans etc. The bedrooms are a good size especially the master with en-suite and loads of wardrobe space. An all round lovely house.

  The outside space could do with some real or artificial grass for the children to play and be able to sit out.The cleaning staff need to be a little more thorough,even though the majority of the house was clean the oven could have been better and some of the rooms upstairs were dusty with spiders and webs. I know that the spiders are a problem that can’t be helped but on this occasion they were overlooked.
