What our customers say about their holidays

• Clare - Verified booking

  The house itself is lovely and generally well equipped.

  The kitchen had everything we could’ve possibly needed. One small but very useful addition to the property would be a clothes airer - the weather was so bad we couldn’t hang washing on the line. Well situated for the Mere and the town and only a ten minute walk to the seafront. A lovely welcome pack was provided and very much appreciated (great to have a cup of tea after a long drive and not even need to unpack) and it was nice to have the bird feeders in the garden that had obviously been filled before we arrived. We loved watching the sparrows have their breakfast whilst we had ours. The only disappointing thing (and it’s quite a big thing) is that there is no off-street parking. The listing suggests that this is available and it was definitely one of my criteria when looking for a holiday rental. I have an autistic son and off-street parking makes it safer for him and easier for me. We managed the situation ok but I really think this amenity needs to be removed from the listing - we were able to pull up behind the house to unload but then had to find on street parking and with double yellow lines in front of the property it meant trying to find a space in a side street, often a few minutes walk from the property.

  Excellent week in Hornsea.

  Elizabeth House was located perfectly. spotlessly clean on arrival, fresh flowers in all the rooms and a generous welcome pack greeted us. The rooms were a good size and had everything we could possibly want or think of. Free parking on the side street and having taken 2 cars we never struggled to park up. We were able to reverse up a small rear drive to unpack. The area was perfect for exploring - 2 local parks (with playgrounds)for early morning dog walks. 15 minutes stiroll through the town to the sea. Excellent variety of interesting shops. The sea front was clean and dog friendly to the right hand side. 3 pubs and an excellent war bar on the doorstep. The Italian was great as was Mas Indian. The Mere was beautiful and we did the 10k walk around it. We explored and would recommend Spurn head ( no dogs) and Flambourgh head . The fish & chips at the lighthouse in flambourgh village were amazing, though Lilys in the town were also very good. A super week , fabulous house, friendly helpful owners - highly recommend

  The cottage is very well maintained and in a pretty location very close to The Mere.

  Shops, including a wonderful butcher and restaurants were a few minutes walk away, no cars needed. We found it was within walking distance of the beach. I did know about the spiral staircase beforehand but by the end of the week I could have done without it!! On a slightly more serious note the stairs are difficult to negotiate with suitcases...soft bags are better and of course the bathroom is downstairs which may be a problem for some. The small bedroom is fine but be aware the bed is only accessible from one side and also had a footboard so no climbing in and out by the foot of the bed. Do not let this put you off, the cottage is so clean and fresh. We found the enclosed garden perfect on warm days for breakfast, coffee, evenings and enjoying a drink at the end of the day. The lovely fresh flowers, coffee machine, fresh milk, tea and delicious homade lemon drizzle cake were unexpected and a very welcome touch. Thank you so much.

  Fairplace is an immaculately finished, clean and warm cottage for two or three adults.

  We appreciated the central heating plus instant heat of the gas fire and continuously available hot water in a week at the end of October so definitely would be great for Summer or Winter stay. The cottage is truly 'fully equipped' and the owners have taken particular care with bedding and furnishing to ensure that visitors feel comfortable and 'at home'. ( Actually MUCH better than my home!) Potential visitors should note the description of the feature spiral wrought iron staircase- which was no problem for us- and the beautifully presented downstairs bathroom. We were very impressed by the light and airy kitchen diner, too. The cottage is very convenient, only 1 minute walk from cafes, 7 minutes walk from Hornsea Mere and only a few minutes more to the sea front and beach. There is parking in front of the cottage and fast WiFi. We were very impressed by Fairplace and had a great stay. Thank you!

  50 years of staying in Gites,Villas and cottages on holidays .

  We have never stayed in such a well loved and immaculate premises. Every thing you need is at hand in the cottage. Even cookery books. If your staying here there is a large Tesco’s with Petrol pumps less than 5 mins drive all your provisions can be purchased there. Look up the Legendary Local Fish and Chip Restaurant /Takeaway. Pubs within 150 metres in High St but this cottage is away from the High St and does not suffer any traffic or surrounding noise. We hope to return but suspect you will have to get in early for bookings. It is also a short walk to the Hornsea Mere and a larger walk to the Sea Front. Be aware people talk to you in the streets!!!Us Southerners aren’t used to that. Also lovely garden to sit out in with neighbours cat that comes to see you. You won’t be disappointed in booking these premises. Thanks
