The property is generally described as very clean and well-kept, with several guests highlighting its spotlessness. However, one review mentioned dog hairs, which suggests occasional lapses in cleaning standards.
The location is highly praised for being central, with easy access to local shops, pubs, and restaurants. It is also well-situated for exploring nearby seaside towns and the countryside.
Many reviews note the property as cosy and comfortable, with good quality bedding and a homely feel. The presence of a hot tub adds to the comfort, although one review mentioned the sofa being a bit soft.
Facilities like the hot tub are appreciated, but there are comments about the lack of recycling, basic TV, and a need for more crockery. A maintenance issue with a side panel is also noted.
While the reviews reflect a positive experience, there is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the owner beyond providing contact information and ensuring a comfortable stay.
About this property
10 Walton Terrace, a well-positioned, two-bedroom home is nestled in the heart of Guisborough, an attractive market town in North Yorkshire. Perfectly positioned near a hub of amenities, and upon the cusp of the North York Moors National Park, 10 Walton Terrace is the perfect destination for families, friends or couples looking to enjoy the wonders of this stunning region, whilst also a short drive to the breath-taking coastline. Benefit from a parking permit, for a nearby public car park, before travelling on foot for a short distance, soon reaching your new home-from-home. Step indoors to be greeted by the homely sitting room, where you can relax after a long day of exploration, whilst the kitchen/diner has all the essentials for a self-catered stay, where you can whip up and enjoy mealtimes as a five. End your evening with a tipple in the rear garden, partly covered to even enjoy through the wetter months, before climbing into the indulgent hot tub for a well-deserved soak. Once you’re ready for some rest, head upstairs to be met by two well-appointed bedrooms, a double with plenty of storage, and a family room for flexibility, both serviced by a sleek bathroom, housing a bath with a shower over. Take the time to explore the charming town of Guisborough, where you can browse through the local shops or visit the Guisborough Forest & Walkway Visitor Centre, with plenty of rural walks to enjoy from this space. By car, take a day trip to the seaside town of Saltburn-by-the-Sea for a beach day, explore the beautiful fishing town of Staithes with its quaint harbour, or take in the fresh air from the cliffs of Whitby; here, you can also enjoy some traditional fish and chips by the harbour, walk up the 199 steps to Whitby Abbey and take in the views across the coast, and discover a wealth of attractions along the cobbled streets. With so much to see and do, do so with 10 Walton Terrace as your base.
Guisborough is an attractive market town set in rural surroundings on the edge of the North York Moors National Park. Steeped in history, Guisborough is in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and the town's most notable feature is the beautiful ruined abbey, Gisborough Priory; standing in full glory, to its original height of 97 feet, the dramatic gothic east gable towers high over the market town and has become a well-known icon of the town. This bustling small town has twice-weekly market days, a good selection of eateries, excellent pubs and many independent shops. Around Guisborough sits the spectacular woodland of Guisborough Forest. Guisborough Forest & Walkway is situated in Pinchinthorpe on the outskirts of Guisborough at the northern end of the A173. It extends for 2.5 miles along part of the route followed by the old Guisborough Branch Railway line, heading west towards Nunthorpe, and east to Guisborough Forest, which is managed by Forest Enterprise. It is a gateway site to the North York Moors National Park and offers splendid views of Roseberry Topping to the south. Points of local interest include Highcliff Nab and Hanging Stone. Captain Cook 92s Monument is also within walking distance. The Cleveland Way and the Tees Link walks pass through Guisborough Forest, and are just two of the many walking routes easily accessible to visitors. This super country park has cycle trails, walking routes, bridleways, a trim trail and an easier sculpture trail. The park includes the Guisborough Walkway which runs along the former trackbed of the Middlesbrough to Whitby railway line. This includes a wetland area with boardwalks, woodlands and grasslands. You can also climb Highcliff Nab for fabulous views of Teeside and the coast. The park is also very popular with mountain bikers with a number of super trails to explore. There is an excellent visitor centre with full details of all the trails in the park. The long distant trail of the Cleveland Way passes close by, whilst nearby Roseberry Topping is well worth the climb to take in the spectacular views. An easy thirty minute drive brings you to the Heritage Coastline, with historic villages and resorts, including Staithes, Saltburn and Whitby to enjoy.

Everything in the property is to a high standard and lovely and clean. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we loved the hot tub. You are a few minute walk to the centre of Guisborough were you will find plenty of pubs and eateries. We visited Saltburn by the sea and Staithes. I would certainly recommend this property it is home away from home.

We often book this kind of break for ourselves and our 4 legged friend and normally spend most days out. Here we felt very comfortable and enjoyed some well needed rest days in the property too without feeling it was just a base. The property is well cared for and lovingly looked after we would recommend staying here for a nice relaxing break Lots of places to visit on the doorstep and shops restaurants etc easy to access within a few minutes walk. Only had one slight issue with parking permit which wasn't the owners fault and a quick call sorted that out fast and easily which was perfect top Amazing place can't wait to go back

Was spotlessly clean and the hot tub was an added bonus. The bed and bedding were very comfortable. Good central spot for traveling to other places for days out. The priory and grounds are spectacular. Located on a busy road in the centre of town .
