Sandside Beachfront Cottage Perfectly Saltburn

Location was great, within walking distance of beach, shops, cafes, restaurants etc The bedrooms & lounge/kitchen area were fine. Spacious, comfortable beds. Cosy in lounge/dining area but good enough for 3 adults, 2 children & a dog for 2 nights.

The frontage of the property very disappointing. Bird droppings on seats & steps. The outside table had not been cleaned & was dirty & tatty. The bbq had not been touched for weeks & the rack was rusty & grimy. Not a welcoming sight-front gate only opens slightly, needs fixing. The floor in the main bathroom has lifted where water has got into it. The ensuite shower door doesn't close properly & is very small for an adult. No mirror in main bedroom.

Beautiful accommodation, excellent communication from host throughout.

Good location on sea front.

Nothing to dislike.

The cleanliness of the cottage.

Shortage of toilet paper

Excellent location right by the seafront. Parking was on the street but we had no problems finding a space. Property was lovely and warm.

Beds were very soft and uncomfortable, mattresses need replacing.

Location was amazing, super nice hosts- allowed us to check out late.

Mattresses were too soft

Location perfect right by the beach. House clean

Only downside was that there was only one breakfast bowl in the cupboard

Location excellent - right by the cliff tops and near the cliff railway. The apartment was well furnished, with sofa/dining seats comfortable. Nice induction hob with a large fridge/freezer. Seating area outside caught the sun in the evenings. Parking was on street but easy to get spaces. Really close to a large Sainsbury's and great restaurants.

For a top price rental in the area, there were a number of minor points that could do with attention. (1) The wooden gate from the street to the property didn't lock properly and could only be opened half way. (2) The apartment smelt damp on arrival (which we managed to clear by leaving the 2 opening bedroom windows in the property and front/back doors open when we were there (lounge windows didn't open)). (3) There seemed to be water damage to bathroom floor from previous users, causing it to be soft and the laminate flooring to be debonded (we decided not to use the shower, incase that made it worse). (4) In the upstairs ensuite, the extractor wasn't working and neither was the lighting in the mirror. The shower was a very small 800x800 corner unit too (ok for small kids, but not usable by the large and older adults in our party). This bedroom was also accessed via a smaller than usual spiral staircase, tricky for my elderly parents to navigate with their minor mobility impairments. (5) The bed mattresses and pillows were extremely soft (I had back pain in mornings as the mattress didn't give enough support). (6) A neighbour's 40mm waste pipe was also leaking onto the roof of the lounge, leading to smells in the courtyard outside and in the top floor bedroom when windows open. As a side, we noticed the property was up for sale.

Loved the space the location was fantastic slightly hiccup with the entry code but was impressed when we finally got in. The kids loved their ensuite room and the spiral staircase made them feel like they were entering Narnia

Little issues dishwasher didn't work lots of cobwebs and spiders that were not welcome guests a few tweaks would make this property special
