Host & Stay - Widger Mews Apartment

Great location for exploring North Yorkshire. Well equipped kitchen but bit surprised that there was no kitchen roll.

Could have been cleaner. Bits on the floor when we arrived and windows dirty inside and out. Shower in en-suite very small and lacking in power. Some of the information in the online property pack is out of date.

Converted upper floor of an old stable block so no views to speak of - just other stable blocks and the main road. Pity we were not warned that the downstairs was being converted and contractors would be on-site during the week. That said it was otherwise very quiet - no-one around. Never saw the owners. Place was clean, kitchen well stocked. Nice touch - a proper coffee machine ( once we worked out how to work it !!) with some coffee pods left.

Ensuite bathroom was very "bijoux" (cramped) and could have done with some hooks for towels and the missing shelf replacing. Rather "naff" stretch cover on the leather sofa. Drive was very short & steep which was a challenge for our low slung cars. We were told there was another entrance but it was not obvious. No external lighting at night until we reached the front door ( we were walking from a party next door). Windows could do with a clean. The agents Host & Stay were the most irritating that I have ever experienced. Far too many irrelevant & unnecessary emails ...but almost impossible to contact when one wanted to.

Everything was perfect. Very clean and comfortable.

Very spacious and comfortable accommodation and well equipped. The heating was lovely and warm once we figured out how to use it. The location was fine for our requirements. We went to the coast one day and then walked into Malton another. It was lovely to see the beautiful racing horses trot by. We had a problem with a broken cupboard when we arrived but it was resolved very promptly after a short phone call to Host & Stay.

The ensuite bathroom could do with an extractor fan as it got quite steamy after a shower and perhaps it's time to replace the mattresses on the single beds although the one on the double was fine.

Clean and comfortable. Good parking. Spacious well equipped. Lovely area very quiet. Nice to see the horses being exercised.

Settees a little worn but very comfortable.

Clean, quiet, spacious, had what you need.

Poor water pressure in shower. All the fire signage takes away from the homey feel of the place, a bit overkill and made us feel unsafe and at risk. Very disappointed at the surprise mandatory insurance. This was not part of the description when I booked. I believe it has been added now but I was very put off to receive and email requiring further payment for this rental. Sneaky and definitely left a bad taste in my mouth.

Spacious apartment in a great location for our trips to Pickering, Thornton le Dale, Goathland and Whitby.

The shower in the ensuite needs some TLC. Be careful on the entrance to the property if you have a low car. There's an adjacent driveway that also accesses the property, which is not so steep. When comparing prices, note the additional £25 for damage insurance, which will be requested before details to access the property are given.

Great size apartment plenty of room comfortable bed ensuite a bit small but main bathroom huge great location very quiet plenty of parking fully equipped kitchen fast wifi.

Having to pay home stay twenty five pound non refundable damage wavier finding out about this after the apartment was paid for or could have sent them a two hundred and fifty pound bond refundable after fourteen days minus ten pound administration fee really after having my money for nearly a month . To me this isn’t justified at all just a bit of money grabbing from home stay .
