Whilst not the most picturesque village, Skinningrove has a beautiful beach and locals were friendly. Sitting on the Cleveland Way and close to a major bus route, it was ideal for exploring the coast between Redcar, Whitby and beyond.
The flat itself was furnished nicely and cleaned well. only drawbacks were that parking was quite tight and that the sound proofing between this relatively new built flat and others in the block was quite poor. I don't believe the neighbours were being noisy, it just felt like they were in the flat with you.

Accommodation is spacious.
First time I stayed like this accommodation and the stay was not comfortable for me . Due to unavailability of basic things and unclean areas such as laundry bag, bed sheet is not clean, not provided basic kitchen things (frying pan, basic things like salt, tea bag or coffee powder, no waste bin on toilet, no kitchen towel,only provide 2 towels for 3 number family for 3 night stay etc..).when I ask the house owner regarding the basic things which I need to stay at that accommodation , she stated that "they are self catering apartment we don't provide,that I am afraid sorry".
I booked this accomodation via booking.com under host and stay . After all payments they will charge extra 25£ . This thing only they tell you 24 hours before stay. If you want to get the address you need to pay that 25 £ . When you contact them with this issue they will tell you money will be refundable but don't expect they will not refund.
I already send a mail complaint mail regarding this issue . Waiting for the reply (even though it's day 10).

I was not overly impressed with the accommodation. Upon arrival found dirty cooker, fridge, bin half full from previous guests (including open packet of bacon in bin..), bathroom cupboard was gross. Surfaces were clean and tidy but it was clear it had only a light clean. Boiler was also switched off so had a bit of confusion initially why hot water wasn't working. Thermostat for heating wasn't working as it had no batteries.
Messaged host who was quick to get back to me and sent cleaner round in morning however cooker and fridge was still dirty. Thermostat issue was never resolved, despite my 11 night stay, which meant flat was either boiling hot or cold.
Lastly the damage deposit which they chase you for is very slow to be refunded. From my last day at the accomodation it took 7 working days (1.5 weeks) to receive it back in my bank account.
If staying in the area again I would definitely look elsewhere.
