Lovely house, exactly as the photos, staining on bathroom floor (upstairs) not sure if from a previous leak. Seal could do with being replaced on shower screen as water is getting through. Slight problem with the shower hose not fitting properly in the holder in upstairs bathroom. Everything else is perfect. As mentioned in other reviews there are a lot of steps up to the property, we managed even with slight mobility issues but can be difficult with heavy luggage. Great location, just up from Bagdale Hall. Lovely quiet area, co-op just down the road, close to train station, parking space is decent size but parking area would be quite tight for a larger car. Lovely stay and would consider booking again.

The house was easy to find and had the bonus of a free EV charger, which was great! Upon entering the house, there was a smell of sewage, probably caused by the downstairs toilet not being properly attached to the floor. Good space, but found the paintwork needed redoing, it was all looking a bit tired and bashed up. The bathrooms and hallways needed a deep clean, the skirtings were really dirty and the silicone and grout turning black in the bathrooms. Kitchen was well equipped, although again could’ve been cleaned better, a bit dusty on the open shelf. Beds and bedding was nice and comfy, but blinds in bedroom let in a lot of light. The house is a fairly new build, so the walls are paper thin and you can hear everything above and below you. Great location for accessing Whitby, short walk into the centre and the digital handbook they provided was very useful. The view of the abbey was fab from the hallway windows, great for sunrise views!

There are a lot of steps both inside and outside the property so not suitable for anyone with walking difficulties. However, it was perfect for our needs lovely and clean. Decoration was modern and cozy. Lots of information about the area on hand. The host was very proactive. Parking also which was a bonus. The space was small but we had a ford ranger and we managed to park that although it was only accessible from the drivers side but that’s not an issue. Also the parking is tight so recommend reversing. Overall would definitely return. We loved it.

Great location, lovely accommodation, we preferred the second bedroom with the smaller bed, the larger bed is on the ground floor. Lots of steps outside, be prepared if you have lots of baggage or have difficulty using steps. Car parking is tight, ideal for a small car only.

Good sized apartment for a few nights, lovely view of the abbey and in walking distance to local shops, harbour and sights. In general the apartment was fairly clean but the fridge smelt of fish, the downstairs toilet smelt of sewage, the towels had some stains/smelt and there were some crumbs/spills in the living area. Overall we enjoyed our stay, check in and check out were easy and there was clear communication throughout.

Lovely property for 5 adults and a small do. Booked this one as had EV charger and that worked really well, nice and quick charge. Although a lot of similar houses in a small area it was quite peaceful and for us. The car park was ok , if a bit tight for todays bigger cars. The house was nicely furnished and good TV options during some rainy days!

The place we (eventually) stayed in, at Whitby, was excellent in all respects. However, this did not fully compensate for the place we booked (in Stokesley) which was cancelled at 5 hours notice whilst we were travelling up. This caused us a number of inconveniences - 1 and a half hours in a motorway service station whilst we arranged a suitable alternative;a 90 minute round trip on the first evening to meet up with the pre-booked food delivery at the original venue; another 90 minute round trip on day 2 to attend the pre-booked football match which was an integral part of the weekend; also we were unable to meet up as planned with family members who live close to the original venue. All very frustrating, but we did make the most of a bad job. We also appreciated the help of Bethany at Host & Stay in arranging the last minute alternative accommodation. We never really found out the precise reason why the first accommodation was cancelled at such short notice - just ‘damage’.

Amazing Stay!!! The house is big and clean with full-equiped housing tools and furnitures. The location is also near the bus and train station. Highly Recommend!

The captains retreat was the perfect location for us and an absolute bonus that it allowed dogs! The bed were comfy, set up of the house was great and we made wholesome memories there.

After booking and paying (non refundable) we got an email that a scan of my passport plus a selfie was required... Having uploaded these, after a few days I received a 2nd request for this scan and selfie. (We were worried about the safety of my personal documents within this organisation.. ) Sending the scan of my passport would be rewarded by a 500 pounds worth in case of damage to the property.. (Later they let us know we'd first had to pay an extra 35 pounds for insurance..) We would have to upload a video of the property directly after entering, to prove the state of the property at the beginning of our stay. It did not help enjoying our holiday and the house. This house is not suitable for anybody with restricted mobility (lots of stairs in and outside). A little less accessoires would have given more space to live. The park and city center were at walking distance.

Great find. Beautiful bedding. Crisp and fresh. Would have benefited from more than 1 Tea towel to use. Plus no dishwasher tabs available not even one ! Otherwise a great place to stay with friends.

Host and stay are by far the worst host experience we have had on Airbnb. They hound you to fill in additional verification with a company called superhog even though Airbnb themselves say this isn’t necessary. They even threatened to charge £500 to my credit card as some sort of security in case we damaged the property if I didn’t fill in the verification - awful way to treat guests who have good reviews themselves. I asked for help from host and stay twice and their responses were unhelpful and too late to be of assistance. Really not an impressive service. With regards to the property it is clean and new, but it is compact and there are 37 steps up to the front door, not something listed in the property details. Car parking space is tight and we couldn’t get in as somebody else was parked in our allocated space, so loading and unloading was really difficult!! Bedrooms are very small and hanging space is just a small freestanding rail. Kitchen is well finished, but nowhere for guests to store food as cupboards are all full. Lounge furniture feels pretty cheap and only has 1 couch and a couple of small dining room chairs to sit on which is no good if there are 4 or more adults. The worst thing was the dog friendly garden space, this was nothing more than a muddy mess and was only a few feet wide - not dog friendly at all. I really wouldn’t recommend this property unless you are really fit and don’t mind parking miles away from where you are staying.
