Host & Stay - Threadneedle Cottage

Good location. Comfortable property. Tea & coffee provided

No oven gloves

The location was amazing right in the heart of whitby.

Great location, very close to the train station and carpark. The bedrooms are spacious and the colour palette is consistent throughout the property. Dishwasher tablets, toilet roll, shower gel all provided. Beds and linen good quality. Sky tv provided which was a nice plus.

The property is a little tired. I was surprised to see a broken vanity stool under the stairs with an empty wine box and a bag of Christmas decorations. I paid extra for damage protection, but I needn’t have bothered. The dining table was stained orange, mirrors above the bed were missing in the top bedroom (exposing fittings), there was a large stain on the first bedroom floor and most of the furniture had obvious sign of wear. There was a B&M sticker on the toilet brush which didn’t scream luxury. The bedside tables were so dusty, as were the backs of the wooden beams on the doors. The main living room space had a floor that never felt clean, my son’s socks were filthy after walking on it. We swept and hoovered multiple times. I get holiday lets are used and loved, however with a little bit of maintenance this property could be back to its former glory.

Convenient to harbour

Cleaning equipment all on view under the stairs and extremely untidy!
