The property's location is highly regarded, with its peaceful setting and short drive to the coast. The proximity to footpaths and the village of Flamborough adds to its appeal.
The property is described as comfortable, with very comfy beds and soft bedding. However, some guests mentioned a lack of bathrooms and uncomfortable beds in certain rooms, which slightly detracts from the overall comfort.

The house is dirty and in need of a good clean. There is cobwebs everywhere and big build ups of dirt and dust. The showers are also in need of a good clean. Beds are very squeaky and uncomfortable. The spindle on the staircase fell off when we first got there it had just been propped up in place and wasn't screwed in. The hot tub was murky and had a green tint on the first day. The back door handle snapped off when a guest was going to the hot tub. The hot water is a nightmare there wasn't enough for everyone to get a wash which is not something you expect when booking a house for 15 people yet only enough hot water for 2 bath fulls. I had to contact maintenance 4 times In the 3 days we were there which again is not something you want to be doing when your on holiday. Overall not happy with the stay after paying all that money The maintenence men were very nice and sorted the issues quickly.

Garden is huge and perfect for friends or families to share. We loved the hot tub. Must say the pics donât do it justice! Little maintenance issue that was swiftly dealt with. I hoover or at least a soft brush would be useful and it definitely needs downstairs toilet , there so much space! Lovely stay and highly recommended!

Great garden.Well equipped.It was superficially clean, areas of the house needed a deep cleaning.The carpets were stained and the stair carpet is loose. The paintwork is chipped and dirty and the wallpaper particularly in the hallway and stairs is very grubby. The oven shelves were covered in burnt on food as were the baking tins. The kitchen smells of oily food because of this. One of the wardrobes is broken, at the bottom .
