    The cottage was a little damp. Couldn't leave food out like crisps and sugar.

    Very cosy. Spacious. Good size towels and wonderful shower.

    Every year we hope the mattress will have been upgraded. Sadly we don’t find it very comfortable and it ‘twangs’ as you move… and the bottom sheet was very bobbly and pilled which didn’t feel very nice. Everything else was fine. We just didn’t sleep very well.

    Excellent location and lovely hosts. The improvements each year are much appreciated. The cottage had everything we needed. Nicely decorated and the bathroom is much improved. Nice to have Wi-Fi and a parking permit for the car park.

    The bathroom looks new and is very clean. However the shower is impossible to get to an acceptable temperature. It was either too hot or too cold. Perhaps get someone to look at it as it looks new.

    Great location, lovely decor. Well equipped house.

    Meals / Restaurants. The Royal George, as we were travelling over 200 miles, I tried to book table for 5 for two nights. No they said we only take walk in's. So walked in all empty tables had reserved Table markers on? Went to Cod and Lobster. Went back to Royal George, we were a group of 5 having our last night so we had a few shorts. First round £18, second round £28, difference was a Run and coke rather than a coke. Third Round £30 same round? Questioned bar staff and they said sorry we forgot to charge for the mixers last time! Asked to see the previous tab,"sorry can't do this on our till.

    Location near to all the shops restaurants etc

    Property was old, and even in June, felt a little cold/damp . Electric heaters helped.

    Staithes is a lovely little hideaway. Anchorlea was well equipped and comfortable .Host really accommodating and communication great, tips on parking really helpful

    Heating very unpredictable - controlled by the owner on an app - guests can only choose whether the electric radiators in the property are on or off, and 'on' was sometimes red hot or sometimes cold with no apparent logic! Some road noise during the night from vehicles going over the cobbled street outside.

    Lovely little house - very nicely decorated and furnished with modern stylish bathroom and well appointed kitchen. Log burner was a bonus on a chilly evening! Ideally located for access to Staithes harbour and shops.

    Hardly anything to be unhappy about. The shower is effected by low water pressure but still Ok. Not a problem for us but the parking 10 mins walk up a very steep hill could be better explained in the listing (though it's possible to park for a short time to unload right outside)

    Great location 10 mins walk from the harbour. Superbly equipped kitchen. Plenty of storage space. Nice enclosed court yard at the back. Plenty of seating and nice dining area. Next-door to a lovely Delhi and yards away to the nearest pub. Staithes is a lovely place to explore.

    Lovely property in a great location, be prepared to walk up the hill to your vehicle and don't whinge about it. Its part of the charm of the village, If you want to park your car outside the door go to another town this is not the place for you,

    Lounge gloomy and chilly. Lighting poor, outside area not in the sun. Second bedroom awkward sockets, no bedside light, beds soft. Water dangerously hot. We were both a bit under the weather so may have influenced our slightly negative review. We left a day early

    Quite spacious, nice bathroom, good location, good to have parking but quite a walk away. Main bedroom nice.

    The location is great, right in the middle of the town. The rooms all good, maybe kitchen could do with some improvements like the oven which is a bit worse for wear. The kids were happy with their bedrooms on the top floor and the double room was great. The log burner was lovely - could have done with some heating being on as it was a bit chilly and I don’t think we weren’t meant to touch any thermostats. A lovely stay, thank you!

    Heating system is controlled from an outside source and it would be better to identify this on the website as you only know this if you read the pack up.
