What our customers say about their holidays

  We had a great time, 5 of us (2 adults and 3 kids).

  The kids all got their own rooms, so quite indulgent and we had 2 guests stay one night and we didn't feel like we were crowded. Maybe a few extra utensils and pans wouldn't have gone amiss but no big deal tbh. Whilst one of the other reviews noted the shared aspect with the owner downstairs in a completely separate flat, it was no problem for us and we were left to our own devices...we could use the pool as much as we liked without the hassle of having to book or share like some other places (and the kids could not be dragged out of it on most days). It had an exercise bike as well so I could keep watch on our kids in the pool and cycle at the same time, shower and then jump in with them..all with the ever present Smart TV screens. The massive TV in the lounge was great for us to settle with a good film after a good day out and exhausted from the pool..with Sky movies included. Closest beach is less than 5 miles away, an abundance of fish n chip shops, combined with trips to Whitby and Robin Hood's Bay, it was a good week, even with the rain on and off but that the British Summer for you - take some macs and don't worry about it. I think you'd be hard pressed to get the seaside and private pool combo for this price. Just make sure whoever stays at the top of the house isn't too tall as they'll likely bump their head in the eves. The only thing to note is that the listing says it has an EV charger but it doesn't and it was fine for me as Rob, the owner told me in advance. I left home without my cables to charge anyhow but found that the nearby Morrisons had a nice spot/fast charger if needed (whilst getting a cheeky coffee or breakfast). Oh and take extra towels or you'll be forever washing them if you're going in the pool a lot and if you're like me and don't like the noise of the machine clanking away when you're trying to relax then take some extras! Great place overall - would recommend.

  THANK YOU George and the team from Mick Debbie and Abbey the dog.

  We found number 8 to be a perfect apartment for two and a dog. Everything in the apartment for a “romantic” get a way including the gift of bubbles and chocolates in the welcome pack along with the milk, coffee and teabags for that first brew on arrival…..Abbey says don’t forget to mention how she enjoyed the tasty dog treats too. We had some pouring rain, however whatever the weather, apartment 8 has such stunning sea views and is so comfy there is no need to venture out to feel you’ve had a break by the sea. We already have a sea view apartment At Hunters Quay, not only on our must return to list, but also as a definite winter break destination. Town and the supermarkets were walkable for us and with the beach only a hop skip and a jump away we were able to do plenty of short beach walking between showers and a longer one on a finer day. With the spa theatre in such close proximity, we will also keep an eye on events there, as apartment 8 will make a super theatre break destination. All in all we think George and his helpful team tick all boxes and provide a gem of a place to make happy memories by the sea without any need to worry about parking with the included parking permit. Added bonus as everything is so close no need to use the car. All in all this apartment is highly recommended by us

  We couldn’t fault the accommodation, it was a great location, everything you needed was within walking distance.

  The kids loved the pool, we bought along inflatables and plenty of pool toys and it was a struggle to get them back out. As mentioned the beach was also within walking distance and we were lucky to have some great weather whilst we were away. The accommodation itself was spacious, the kitchen was fully equipped, great to have tableware for the kids as I’m always worried they would damage something. The TV’s in each room were a bonus for that amount of people. The living area was our favourite, plenty of space for everyone to chill and relax together after dinner. My only drawback was the pool area started to smell very damp/sewage on the 2nd from and last day we were there, I’m not sure if the chlorine levels needed to be checked more frequently. Although the kids didn’t seem to be bothered by it, none of us adults really used the pool with the smell. Honestly though this didn’t deter from the great week we had here, we are likely to return and would 100% recommend both the location and accommodation to anyone with a large / extended family.

  The property was well laid out, comfortable and nicely furnished.

  Close to the pub, pool and park, beach, shop etc. We were lucky with the weather and enjoyed our stay. However, we were woken at night and in the early hours by doors banging either other apartments or the main entrance, mostly by dog owners. There was no outdoor space for the children so we were all either in or out of the appartment. I must also mention the John Paul as being the worst pub I've ever been in. The length of time we had to wait for food was up to 90 minutes, the children weren't able to wait patiently, on the third occasion we waited patiently and eventually asked if food was coming only to be told the order hadn't been placed. When the food did arrive there was human hair in the salad and the risotto was more like balls of clotted cream. It would have made a good sitcom so many people leaving without saying or getting full refunds on their food. So why didn't we go elsewhere? Because we couldn't get a table they were all closed due to staff shortages of fully booked.

  Had a nice stay with my dog but it's a studio not a one bed apartment.

  Not much room between bed and table so have lovely bruises on my thigh thanks to the bedpost corner. Flooded the bathroom as no instructions left as to which tap worked which shower head. Could have done with an eye mask as the overhead light was on from dusk till dawn and the blinds aren't blackout ones. Read other reviews and took a digital indoor aerial with me which I stuck to the window. TV worked as normal after retuning to aerial setting otherwise you have to sign in to each app. The instructions were there for the TV but they didn't work as previous occupants had attached It to a laptop and not reset it. It was well equipped and short walk to shops and bus station and across the road from The Spa. Sam the caretaker was lovely. She sorted the problem I had with the central heating but then it had problems again. Only there 4 nights and it was warm anyway so didn't bother her again. Wouldn't stay again though.
