The hot tub was fantastic and the owners went out of their way to resolve any technical difficulties we experienced. Whilst there was some noise on the Saturday night with the live music, from the pub across the road this was not experienced the rest of the week. The welcome hamper was a nice touch on arrival. For an advertised dog friendly accommodation strange choice of flooring in the garden. Possible gate at end of seating area/edge of bar to separate from hot tub. A washing line would also be handy. Clearer instructions regarding recycling and check out would be useful. Parking was difficult at times and the van in front of the property didnât move all week!

Loved the house, children loved the bathroom. In a fab location, little bits of street noise but nothing to put you off having a great time. You can walk out the door and get anything you need from the street. Half an hour away from whitby. Would recommend this to anyone. We had an action packed weekend and enjoyed the hot tub at the end of the day. Cleopatra,s takeaway is a must. Cant wait to come back here. Thanks to danny and nicki for a lovely weekend and for letting us stay in your lovely house xx
