Host & Stay - Iris Cottage

It was close to the shops and on a good bus route

There was no peeler or oven gloves. We needed to contact someone about the shortage of knives and forks which led one of our guests eating with a spoon instead of a fork.

Everything

N/A

The property was lovely and well decorated, and lots of home comfort s. Clean and tidy.

Just couldn't find the property on Google maps

Location only.

A lot. Noisy - unclean - general lighting poor - settee uncomfortable which they knew about from previous comments - dining chairs unstable/uncomfortable. - no terrace to sit out on as promised - blue bottle fly problems they knew existed immediately prior to our visit but failed to check - foisty smell in bathroom. E-mail of complaint not satisfactorily dealt with.

Iris Cottage is cosy and central to the area. Has good facilities on the whole, and each bedroom has an ensuite which is good when it's 2 couples staying. Easy, short walk from cottage to centre of town. Two supermarkets nearly at your door.

Kitchen needs a couple more utensils to make cooking easier, like tongs, a larger frying pan and an oven glove. Outside, approaching both front and back doors could be tidied up to make Iris Cottage more welcoming . . We had a problem with bluebottles, to the extent we had to buy fly spray. On one occasion on our return to the cottage, after making sure we had got rid of all bluebottles before going out for the day, there were 12 - 15 flying about.

nice spacious but cosy accommodation, and parking to rear of property, comfy bed. Not far from NYM railway which was why we were staying in Pickering.

noise from main road outside property. Maybe if the bed was on the wall alongside the cupboard the traffic noise might have been diffused or possibly wooden shutters on the window. Apart from that a slight problem with bluebottles, found several dead ones on window ledges which we removed but kept finding more so by the time we left there was about 5 flying around. Also in main bathroom there was a fishy smell coming up from shower drain on one day, so we ran the shower for a bit and it disappeared.

Beautiful cottage in a perfect location. Private parking an asset

A charming, modern cottage with all mod cons right in the heart of Pickering Town Centre with supermarket and a plethora of shops and places to eat right on your doorstep all within easy walking distance.

Nothing.

Very nice place but a little dangerous location for the meter box in the main bedroom. It couldn’t be seen behind the curtain and both my wife and I stubbed our toe badly.
