The property was lovely although lots of steps up to the property which was a little difficult in the snow so something to bare in mind especially if you struggle with steps
It was lovely and cosy and had everything we needed

The location, the number of rooms, free parking on the street
Dirty duvets, rubbish under the beds, not enough seats in living room for 7 guests, no Sky remote despite cleaners pointing this out to Host & Stay.

Great location and house, second to none but.... be aware that the booking company "host and stay" would not give us access to the keys until I paid 25 quid for an insurance policy I did not need. Verges on a scam so read the small print. House also had cheap and broken chairs just left in the divining room and a broken oven door that was not fixed, despite the fact the company told us not to use it; great for self catering. Great house, shocking management

Our grandchildren (12, 10 and 6) loved the place - wanted us to buy a place like it! Then decided their parents should! 😀 Very clean and comfortable.
Kitchen needs more crockery and cooking equipment e.g. bowls for the microwave. As we were only there for 2 nights, these were not so essential. Swing bin bags far too small, too few dishwasher tablets - there were 7 of us and needed to use dishwasher as limited crockery.

House was very clean and had all the facilities we needed. It was a short walk into Whitby centre. There was lots of information about the property and local area before we arrived.
Lots of stairs!

A very comfortable stay in a prime location.
The house was warm and well appointed, the views and location were perfect.
The lounge was particularly welcoming and we enjoyed gathering there in the evening as a family.
We all found the beds to be comfortable.
None of the negative comments below would stop us from wishing to stay again, just observations which would benefit from being looked at.
This review is written on behalf of my mother (booked name Hunt)
There were a few issues such as a leak from the bathroom into the kitchen (reported) and the Saniflow system in the basement bedroom unfortunately left an eggy smell after using the shower and sink but I know this is a well known issue with these types of systems unfortunately.
The oven door needs looking at as it felt loose to us and it took a lot longer to cook our dinner one night as I suspect the heat was being lost.
The lock on the door down to the basement bedroom felt like it was on back to front, it would be nice to be able to lock from the stairs/bedroom side to stop anyone walking in on you in the shower!
There were two broken dining chairs (note left in the property from another guest who had spotted it)
Also the heating did not appear to be working in the basement bedroom, however this may have just been user error.

great location and plenty of space !
Wi-Fi didn’t work, basement radiator didn’t work, draws in basement fell apart , no mirrors for ladies to do their hair, steep steps leading upto the house pitch black at night , dining room chair dodgy and table matts scruffy, alert from that ok

Good space, modern decor, comfy beds, towels and essentials (e.g toilet rolls) provided, good location 5 minutes from town.
General paintwork and upholstery could do with a clean, sofa and dining room chairs are grubby. None of us could connect to WiFi. There was staining on the kitchen ceiling so must be a leak from the shower above. The downstairs bedroom can be locked outside but not inside (shower is at bottom of stairs so anyone can open door to come down whilst showering). No mirrors in bedrooms.

Such a lovely little house in a great location with a short walk to the shops, restaurants and the beach.
Kitchen had everything that we needed and we even had tea bags.
The large bathroom was amazing.
Would definitely like to go back
It was all great but there are lots of steps , so be mindful if you are travelling with elderly or little ones.

We were a group of 7, all family, and the property is huge, so spacious! Has 4 floors so I wouldn’t advise for anyone with mobility issues, but has everything you need. Kitchen, dining room, amazing main bathroom, 1 double en-suite with single bed and 2 top floor double bedrooms one with single bed in also and separate toilet, so you can fit a lot of people in fantastic for big family or friends.
Decor is beautiful, a lot of thought and money has been spent doing the property up.
The kitchen is fully equipment including coffee machine and pods.
Location is great, the road which takes you to the property is parallel to the train line, 5minute walk to station.
To the front of the property is a little paved area with bench and is a sun trap, which is rare to have a nice outside in Whitby that isn’t a small yard.
We thought it was a great price considering the location and size of the property, we would defiantly return.
The only niggles I can mention are the blinds in the bedrooms, they are cream and paper thin, didn’t block any light out whatsoever so from 5am we were all awake, also walls are stained and marked and sofa is very stained.

property was comfortable, well set out.
The parking does not exist on a busy weekend. we waited for an hour to unload, then parked a 10 min walk away. My first phone call to customer services was not helpful at all. the second time more successful. The kitchen was not well equipped for cooking for a group, also limited worktop space, the washing machine and dryer facilities shouldn’t be listed. they are old and filthy, due to being in a shed. Some cleaning overlooked, like place mats etc but all in all good.

Nothing. It was not suitable for elderly people at all!!!
The accessibility of the property was very poor. No mention of having to host cases both outside and inside the property up loads of stairs. Being in our 70's and me also a cancer sufferer was very difficult. Having to negotiate stairs to go to the loo in the night. No hand rails on quite a number of areas with stairs. Accident waiting to happen!!! Dried blood on the leather settee. Freezing cold and no central heating thermostat. I will be talking to the local trading standards and building control departments. Dangerous slippery surfaces
