Very spacious property and gardens. The only complaint was that the oven in the main kitchen does not work. I note that other guests had reported this months ago. I rang Jayne on our first day to report it, she just said she would let the owner know. Catering for 9 people with just a small oven in the annexe wasn’t ideal. The only pub in the village is closed so the only place to go is the Parkdean resort.Overall we had a great time and if the owner could repair/replace the oven, it would be 5 stars.

We had an excellent stay - the house was very spacious and had plenty of space for an extended family trip. Allowed us to spend time together but sufficient individual lounge areas also. The garden is huge!!! Great for kids and dogs. Very close to the beach - a 10 minute walk. Lots of things to do locally as well - trips to hornsea, filey, scarborough and brid, an animal park 5 min drive away - great for kids.

The house and location were perfect for our three generations celebrating a 70th birthday. The house is very specious and well equipped with views of the sea, a large garden and coastal walks right from the door. The local beaches are beautiful with miles of sand and shallow sea. Lots of places to visit just a short drive away too.
