Great location, pub next door is good for food and quiet so no disturbance.
Very clean overall and warm. No wood provider for log burner which would have been nice in the autumn/winter.

Disappointed that the £500 deposit is refunded only at £485 as there is an admin charge! No breakages should be a full refund and all costs should be included in the price you pay to rent.
Fridge door holder broken already on arrival and it cost us a pint of milk - but I don’t get a refund of that or an admin charge!
Parking is awkward - instructions say don’t park in the path but neighbours asked us to do just that to free up more space for them to get in and out.
As others found -the cooker hood is quite dangerous if you are taller than 5ft plus it was dirty and dusty on top.

The house was a good size and a good location for us. Although as with all the reviews I read, it was quite dirty. I needed some attention.
Dust and cobwebs, everywhere marks and smears etc dirty windows

Good location easy parking house well equipped, towels and bedding good.
On busy road noisy, beds very soft not a good sleep for me but that’s just my preference, bit dusty in en-suite bathroom corners and cobwebs throughout property not cleared.

The location was ideal. The washing machine and clothes line were a good addition. Beds were clean and comfortable. Parking spaces were always available. 2 sitting rooms.

The property wasn’t very clean, especially given there is a £100 cleaning fee on top of the price quoted. There were cobwebs everywhere, the cutlery, glasses etc weren’t clean. There was no washing up liquid in the kitchen, no towel or soap in the downstairs toilet, the only tea towel in the kitchen was marked and had holes in. The extractor fan is dangerous and 3 members of our party hit their head on it more than once! There was no kitchen roll provided and only 3 toilet rolls for 6 people to last 4 days. Again given there is a £50 service charge I would expect these things to be provided for the duration of the stay (which I am sure was the response to a question on booking.com that enough of both would be provided for the duration of the stay) There are no locks on any doors, there should at least be locks on the downstairs toilet door and the main bathroom door! The dining table is too big and heavy for where it is situated. If someone is sat on the 2 chairs side by side access to the kitchen is blocked. Sash windows in the bunk bed room did not appear to lock. Open and half full bottles of wine and soda had been left in one of the kitchen cupboards along with an empty sanitary towel wrapper in one of the bedroom draws (front bedroom on the right at the top of the stairs, second draw down to the left of the bed)

Just had a wonderful family weekend away at this property. It is exactly as it is described, clean and spacious with brilliant instructions from the owners on how to access the house. The pub next door is superb for a few drinks on an evening!!

Wow what a house. Went above and beyond our expectations. If your looking to stay in the area don't waste time looking for anywhere else. Stayed here with my family and can honestly say we didn't want to leave. Such a luxurious experience and at a fraction of the price. Everything has been well and truly thought out to make this a home away from home would defiantly stay again.

Holmdene is a nice property, with plenty of space for the seven in our party in a useful village location close to the coast. The place is well-appointed and comfortable.
Our stay was marred by an issue with the hot water - a lack of, initially, that was fortunately rectified once the owners were made aware of the situation. Unfortunately, the shower in the main bathroom was not adjustable and stuck on scorching hot - this was flagged to the managing agent on the first morning but wasn’t seen to - we were advised that, as the shower in the en-suite was working - we’d be okay with that. This was far from ideal for a large group of three generations, piling into grandparents bathroom through their room. Not a huge deal, but we booked on the basis of the facilities advertised so the fob-off from Host and Stay (the managing agent) with their faux-empathetic responses did irritate.
Also, no recycling provision and an awkward dining table location further impacted our enjoyment of the stay.

Holmedene was perfect for a multi family trip - it was the first time we’d taken our small baby away and the house suited our needs perfectly. We particularly liked the open plan kitchen and living area which made cooking nice and sociable (there is a separate living room too should anyone want to watch tv in peace!) Very clean, and well located - lovely area to explore around the house. Would recommend going to the pub next door - great pub and landlady was extremely friendly.

Not enough hot water. Kept having to boost hot water cylinder. For the amount of people that can stay at this property, hot water becomes an issue. Everything else was spot on.

Everything! From the communication leading up to the trip and throughout. The property was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed as a family. The attention to detail from the hosts is top level.

Only issue was having to turn the boiler on for the baths and showers as the warm water didn't seem to last for too long.

Great place, family loved the whole trip. It was so clean and plenty of space for all of us. Location was great plenty to do in surrounding areas. Would 100% stay here again.
Only comment would be for more cloths, tea towels and dishwasher tablets as we had to go and purchase these.

A very warm and welcoming home. 8 of us stayed in this house comfortably and still had enough space to spread out. A beautiful location with a variety of fun activities and close by spots for walking and adventuring. Would highly recommend to those wishing to enjoy the Filey Bay and surrounding areas

We had a great time at Holmedene, the place was very spacious and perfect for 7 adults, one child and a baby. Beds were very comfy and we had everything we needed in the kitchen. The nice shampoo and conditioner in the bathrooms was a great touch. The dining area was spacious as well, although three of the chairs might need an upholstery refresh. The location is very convenient for visiting Filey and Bempton Cliffs. While you need to pay £25 extra on top of the list price for damage insurance, the price is still very competitive for the area, the quality and the size of the property. We loved the decorations on the wall and the paintings. We had a small issue with the hot water as it was not enough for all of us to take a shower because pressure was low in the boiler. However the Host & Stay Team responded quickly and managed to give us instructions on how to fix the issue so we could wash the salt out after the beach. Overall we loved our time at Holmedene and would happily be back.

Great place to stay, fantastic location well worth the visit.
However if you are booking this stay with air bnb? Please be aware there is a damage deposit to pay to the host after you’ve paid off the balance. This payment proves very difficult to make via superhog.

Photos don’t do the size of the house justice. Great house with everything we needed. Great for a large family with children. En-suite bathroom and additional downstairs toilet a bonus. Extra snug room with PlayStation was great for grandchildren. Beds comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed. Lovely quiet location not too far to travel to coast. Would stay again. Communication with Airbandb great.

BEWARE Having left the property in a clean and tidy state we had to wait 2 weeks (14 days) for our security deposit to be refunded as this is their standard policy. Just what you need in this current economic climate, a company that keeps your money for no reason other than to profit further whilst making you struggle financially for weeks after you check out!! We wont be using this company again.

This was beautiful accommodation, even more spacious and generous than the photos can show! PERFECT for a holiday with a large family or mixed age groups, especially with separate sitting room.

The bathrooms and kitchen are modern and with every appliance you could wish for. Cooking was a dream and the laundry/drying facilities are great. The beds were clean, comfortable and the cotton sheets have prompted me to order some, luxury!

The small courtyard garden is a sun trap and we spent a lot of time there eating and drinking wine!

Nobody could be disappointed with a stay here! :)

This place is great, the pictures don't really do it justice. It's a lot bigger in reality than it seems on the pics. Loads of room, good lay out, everything you need is available. Location is great and the pub next door is a bonus, they were lovely and fitted us in for dinner when our asda delivery was delayed.

Couldn't recommend this place highly enough.

The location close to the pub was ideal. The pub is a quaint quiet place that sells excellent pub grub.
There was parking for our cars.
Seven of us stayed for two nights it was very good.

The downstairs is open plan. Quite a lot of the noise generated down stairs is transmitted upstairs to the bedrooms.

We went for a family Christmas and had a brilliant time. The house was immaculate and well presented, we had everything we needed. Enough space so we didn't feel on top of each other. Would definitely
recommend and would gladly go again if we were in the area.
