Location perfect for bars and supermarkets and a very short walk to the sea front. Accommodation had everything we needed.
Very minor points which we raised with housekeeping for future reference. When we arrived at 4.00 pm on a cold January day the heating was set at 12 deg C. I can understand to save energy but should have been switched on in the morning as we didn’t get the place warmed up til v late. Secondly we struggled to open the inner door with the key which we could see had had some wear and tear.

Great location in the centre of town & easy street parking (beware of the Lime Trees!) close to all amenities, trendy craft ale & wine bars (bit pricey) & traditional pubs. Sainsburys & railway Station close by, good selection of smaller shops & coffee shops. Local 2nd hand market stalls at the weekend.
Then excellent facilities, ice cream, fish & chips, etc. down on the clean sandy beach, pier, funicular railway (good value £1.60 per adult). Also Miniature Railway short walk away, again great value (£2.00 per adult).
Checking in time too late (16:00) & Check-out too early (10:00) - feels like lost part of a full day!
Standard Damages Insurance Retainer £250 (refundable less £10 admin charge) - Question of transparency/trust without need to photo everything in property. Opted for Waiver Insurance £25 for peace of mind.

Too many things that could get broken by little people, would have helped if owners had moved things higher up, given that they knew a 4 year old was coming to stay.
PAC man at top of the stairs= death trap, my little boy fell off the stool which is at the top of the stairs, ended up moving the stool into the kitchen to prevent him trying to sit on it.
Although if you have order children be warned there are lots of pictures of beautiful but naked women on the staircase.

Great location.
Lovely flat - full of interesting things. After 3 days it felt like home. Would recommend.
Would have liked small sharp kitchen knife. Couldn’t get Netflix to work in the living area - was OK in the bedroom. Note on front door said all guests are asked to decorate a plate - we enjoyed looking at previous guests plates but we didn’t get one and were a bit disappointed.

Loved the videos of the property shown on their website. Unfortunately this must be an old video as quite a few of the features were not included or were now broken / damaged. Loved most of the apartment. I took some cool photos. Location great. Not too noisy but the dog next door does bark a bit.
Communal carpets dirty. Some of the “ornaments” made areas look a little like a jumble sale. Just odd bits scattered around. Lots of personalised, signed bits to “Neil”. The old fading plates on the wall put the kids off eating. Great idea just everything needs a clean / finishing off. I wasn’t going to take photos of the bits that needed attention as it was nothing major. Their website said they offer plates to decorate, we did not see these.
This is the 4th booking we have made this year with H&S. We hadn’t received check in info on the morning we were due to travel. This has not happened before. I emailed but didn’t receive a reply. I called and was told I hadn’t signed a waiver. I had not received this and have not had any for our previous bookings. I was also told I had to pay an £250 for insurance? Then instead I paid £25? Now I’m still unsure whether this was down to H&S or the owner whoever Neil is.
I was then was asked to send ID. It’s either a new thing or Neil is worried about his collection going walkies. My passport is in my maiden name. If I was asked to send ID when I booked our previous 4 stays then I would have known which name to book under. Why this couldn’t have been done last August when I had booked god knows but if I hadn’t called on the morning
to check we would have arrived and my passport would be at home. It’s really put me off booking again to be honest.

Loved the location , decor was cool and fun , beds were very comfortable , loved all of the windows , natural sunlight and fresh air .
neighbours dog barked whenever we passed the front door . some damage to the houses walls and stair railing that have not been fixed . lights in the kids closet had no batteries . sofa was comfortable but felt a bit gritty, which is understandable being a beach house that allows dogs . Sofa and red coffee table could use a deep clean but otherwise the entire house and our stay was wonderful .

Everything! Especially the plate thing! Lots of fun! Location was great! So close to a long stretch of sandy beach and also the local town. Facilities in the apartment were first class. Lots of room. And such an eclectic collection of artwork that even us two pensioners never ran out of conversation pieces to chat about. Loved the Pacman machine too! A competition every evening! Brilliant. So enjoyable! Just 3 nights away but feels like 10 days to re-charge our depleted batteries! Thank you for sharing this with us.
Needs a grab rail in the shower. (Great shower though). And a toilet roll holder stand. Oh...and a bread knife....and some spare light bulbs. Very minor suggestions, but they can make a bit of a difference.

Very artistic apartment. The plates in the kitchen are a nice touch.
Could have done with a clothes airer. Had to wash some muddy clothes and there was nowhere to dry them. Not keen on paying a damage waiver with a £10 admin fee either.

The location is just fine and parking was no problem in December. However, in the summer that might not be the case! Internally, the unique and quirky features were great.
Kitchen facilities were weird! Full of electrical appliances but very few basics. For instance, one sharp knife and one saucepan and frying pan only, but no oven gloves, wooden spoons, measuring jug or bread knife. It's as if the owners didn't expect you to cook. Also, we found two TV remote controls hidden from view - one under a cushion and the other under the bed! Finally, one door handle fell off whilst we were there and others are becoming very loose.

Everything - we love the apartment having been before. The location is brilliant - Saltburn is a gorgeous place. The hosts are amazing and the apartment covers all we could need for a short break. Always a pleasure.
Nothing - there are a lot of steps to the apartment so a heads up for anyone with mobility issues should be aware.

Everything. It was quirky and very spacious
Shower not big enough for larger people, especially as there is so much space in the bathroom.
Not a complaint but the Expresso machine does not work properly. Put the coffee pods into the machine, but only managed one coffee out of three.

Individual style, with all areas of comfort considered. The apartment itself is curated like a gallery, inspiring creativity. Peaceful and convenient location.

Plenty of roadside parking and a key box made the tribal super easy with bags and a baby.
Perfect location between the beach and town. Means everything is within walking distance. Milton Street has all the essentials we needed - supermarket, coffee shops and restaurants.
The apartment is immaculate - lovely and clean. And the decor is brilliant - really fun and uplifting.
The shower is hot and powerful. The beds are comfy. And there’s space to hang your clothes.
There was nothing I didn’t like but if I had to pick fault:
- The apartment is a bit chilly which was fine in September but maybe an issue in winter.
- The stairs might not be appropriate for older people or crawling babies/toddlers.
- A hairdryer would’ve been a bonus.

Everything
The shower in the bathroom was far too small considering how large the bathroom was. I’m 5’4” and slim build and only just fitted in. However, my husband 6ft and 16 stone struggled to turn around in the shower and wash. The bedroom pillows were far too soft and the Veloux window in the bedroom would have been better with curtains or a blind.
Apart from the above, it was absolutely brilliant.

Fab location. Funky decor. Really comfortable. Sainsbury’s across the road. Cafe with amazing food and a perfect cup of tea just down the road.

Love the artwork, Pac-Man machine and the plate to decorate.
Location is ideal for the shops and restaurants.
Close to beach and free parking.
Bed really comfy, nice and quiet in the attic room.
No hairdryer which might not be an issue for everyone, but I had to go for dinner with wet hair which was less than ideal for someone with long thick curly hair. Also when I messaged they said they couldn’t get one out to me.
Also disappointed the fairy lights in the kids cupboard didn’t have any batteries in so couldn’t see to play in there.

This is a great place to stay- it’s inspiring and fun. Everywhere you look, there’s something interesting to see. If the weather is rubbish, there are some great books to settle down with. The owners have created a space that is both playful and comfortable.
I love Saltburn, it’s a simple and beautiful place. Nothing pretentious about it. It feels like a town that is on the up- some of the beautiful old buildings have been restored nicely and there are great places to eat and drink nearby.
Nothing could have been better.
