Above comments are really minor, overall a superb bungalow, well appointed and very comfortable, especially the recliners, which we have at home. Beds very comfy too.

A very comfortable and well-equipped bungalow in an excellent location for exploring Staithes and the surrounding area. Good off-street parking, but also with a nearby bus stop for the half-hourly bus service in the direction of either Whitby or Saltburn. There is a well stocked Co-op and a fish and chip shop a few minutes walk away.

Very comfortable, spacious and light bungalow. Very well equipped indeed. Whilst Lower Staithes has the characterful houses, many looked quite dark and cramped. Snd with no parking. It was simple to walk up and down into Staithes to enjoy its character but very nice to come back into the bungalow.

Good location apart from very steep walk into village, keeps you fit! We are all in our seventies & managed it. There is a parking space in the drive & another in the street, a bonus to be available most places in the centre. 3 pubs serving food & real ale. Only ate at Cod & Lobster which was good but not as good as Magpie in Whitby. Food looked gRead morereat in Royal George. 5 minutes walk to stop for half hourly bus between Whitby & Middlesbrough. Had to use own log on for some features on tv- confusing. Well equipped accommodation for very pleasant stay Hide

The bungalow was nicely designed and worked extremely well. The TV and "Lazy boy" chairs were a plus.

As said in my review in the cottage bit surprised to see broken window with no explanation. Also bin outside was so full lid would not close.
