Fabulous location. House very warm. Low ceiling in kitchen, but we managed fine. Mugs are in the cupboard next to the sink! Comfy beds. Plenty hot water.

It’s shabby and lacking care in some places in this cottage, and we left a lot of suggestions in the maintenance book…..which we noticed were repeated often by previous holidaymakers The bedrooms and the bath and shower rooms were good …it was the lounge and kitchen that were less than ok Outside seating area was unclean and neglected too It needs some TLC

The house was in an ideal position, 2 mins to shops, beach and accessing the Cleveland way. Good size rooms, and was clean but needed a deep clean and attention to detail. The house in parts looked tired and needed painting, the front needed weeding and general TLC. Some milk on arrival but nothing else and to provide a coffee machine but no pods (it might as well not be there). It has the potential to be lovely but just lacked a little care sadly.

Thank you for your review and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience that you've experienced during your stay, and we do appreciate your feedback as means to improve our property. On the other hand, while we do provide milks and the property includes a coffee machine, we highly advise the guest to bring coffee pods as some of our homes do not provide them. We hope you'll give us another chance to host you for another worry-free stay. Thank you!
