The place was lovely, lots of space and a great location. The shower on the first floor wasn't working and the second floor stairs were too steep for one of my party who has limited mobility, so it wasn't ideal not having a working shower. Apart from that it was a great place to stay.

Great location. Lovely building Immediate beach access and lovely little bar and some cafe/restaurants nearby. Bus stop outside with great access to all local areas. Accommodation was not as clean as would have expected. But good communication with the hosts, very responsive and helpful. Offered a mid stay clean and a partial refund on the cleaning bill. Very receptive. Thanks

First of all. the positive. Fantastic location and very comfy beds. The accommodation is worn and tired. The toilets and bathrooms were dirty and in disrepair. It is a lot smaller than it looks on Air BnB and although it is in a great location and has limited sea views from the living room, I wouldn't recommend this place to guest with mobility issues (we had 3 older people with us that struggle with walking and stairs). It would be helpful if that was made clear in the description. We had slug trails in the property each morning. I understand it is an old property, but stopping the slimy things getting in isn't that hard to resolve. The kitchen is tiny so preparing meals is difficult when catering for more than a couple of people. We have used Host and Stay before and found that the properties were immaculate, so we recommended them to a friend who booked for their family in Whitby who also found the property below par. For the price we paid we expected much more than what we got.

The location of Beachside cottage was amazing, with only a 3-5 minute walk to the beach. The beds were comfy and the washer/drier a lifesaver with small children by the beach! The smart tv was unfortunately not very ‘smart’ with only a couple of apps working, which was a bit of a disappointment. It was lovely being able to see the sea from several of the windows. The property was a little tired perhaps, but had pretty much everything we needed in a holiday house.

Lovely decor and very near the beach. Quiet even though it was a bank holiday, although no local store and the pub shut on an evening for food and drinks. Great food at the fish cottage and walk across the sands to Whitby!
