Great property, not so sure about Host and Stay

The property is lovely and in a great location. Nice and quiet with a view of the river. The place is clean with a fully equipped kitchen (except extractor fan)There is everything you need close by, and the parking space was a bonus.

Beware! You book through Booking.com but it’s Host and Stay that you deal with. They want an additional £30 insurance on top of the price you pay with booking.com. The amount of emails, messages and information required from them is just too much. The kitchen needs an extractor fan or the back door fixing so it can be opened, we only cooked a bacon sandwich and the whole place smelt. The doorway into the living room is very low and my dad nearly knocked himself out. A warning or some padding might be a good idea.

Great location centre of Staithes, great views overlooking beck. Property was cosy with good facilities. Comfy bed & good bathrooms. Came with parking space across road which was a bonus even though booking said no parking. Close to shops & next door to cafe selling ice-cream & pizza. Host's App was good with loads of info.

A few issues spoilt the overall experience which is a shame. Sofas need replacing and windows needed a clean (not just the unavoidable seagull poo). Piles of stuff behind the sofa, no table outside, awkwardly high dining table - had to sit on cushions, missing bedside lamp. The non-refundable £10 fee for the deposit was not mentioned when booking. The number of messages from Host & Stay were a bit overwhelming.

Gull's Cove fits its name.

We liked the location in Staites. We were able to go to all the other villages on the coast within a 1/2 hour. In the village of Staites, we liked the food, drink, and Dotty's Cafe fire morning Scones.

We had a difficult time getting the code for the lock box. One of the villagers, from the pub, helped us with that. After we got in, I was sent the property damage disclaimer document. Reverse that! Also, there is a reason they call it Gull's Haven. There are tons of pigeons and ses gull and in turn bird "poop." When we were sitting outside, one of the birds pooped on my friends new blouse. They need to get a scary fake plastic owl. There were no instructions for the heaters. We had to turn on the hot water right away. If you are handicapped or have walking issues, Straites is not the village for you.

great location, great place to spend some time and lovely characterful cottage

location, layout, character, view, well heated,

terrible dripping kitchen tap no extractor fan in kitchen and back door wouldn’t open very noisy water system when water used upstairs and this made the downstairs drip worse too many annoying and unnecessary e mails from host

The property is great, the management company for the booking terrible.

location, parking space, roomy and quirky. outlook pleasant and standards good. everything worked. comfortable.

constant emails and multiple daily communications from the property management company. very long documents with a bullying and threatening tone, before we had even got there. The hardest and most legalistic arrangement through booking . com that I have every made and daily emails during the stay are intrusive!

Unfortunately felt it was inadequate and not worth over £200 per night.

Breakfast was not applicable. Location was good. Comfortable beds.

It was advertised as providing toiletries and there was none, only hand wash. Worktops in kitchen felt tacky. No cloths provided for cleaning. There needs to be safety measures put in place on the outside patio wall. It’s unsafe for children and animals, the wall is low and there is a sheer drop on the other side. Not enough drinking glasses.

A Lovely short stay in a traditional quaint cottage. Ideal for a short break.

location was beautiful overlooking the river and the cottage was really quaint. The one parking space was a bonus. Beds were comfy. very well equipped kitchen, We had everything we needed to cater for a short break.

The smaller sofa (opposite TV) was saggy and very uncomfortable. There were four people in our party, but only 2 wine glasses, and 3 other glasses- all different, but we made do. needed more chairs on the patio.

Great location, faded rental that needs some proper attention and a bit of money spending.

Lovely location. Perfect. Good facilities, very clean.

Property getting tired and this is beginning to impact on quality of stay. Could have had some decent outdoor furniture on balcony. Paint flaking off many of windows, mattresses worn out with springs poking up and uncomfortable. Not many glasses. Just needs a few hundred spending to bring back up to good quality. Not enough problems to wreck the holiday.

A great location but would benefit from more attention to cleaning and facilities.

The location and parking space were great.

The property wasn’t that clean and would benefit from a deep clean, considering what we had to pay for cleaning. The rug in the lounge was dirty and smelt, the handrails up the stairs were sticky and needed a thorough wipe. There was a lot of dog hair in the bedrooms - we understand that pets are allowed but a better hoover is required to remove them. The kitchen facilities were a bit sparse, more glasses are required and a sieve would be appreciated.

Despite the problems, we enjoyed our short stay in Staithes. We would certainly visit Staithes again.

The location and the unique seaside cottage. The property is nice but in need of maintenance. The outside area needs attention, in particular the gulls nest outside the kitchen and subsequent mess.

Please see above. In addition, the fridge would not close properly due to freezer being iced up. Bathroom door wouldn’t close then fell off it’s hinges. Unable to use the coffee machine - coffee pods supplied did not fit.

location and lovely cottage with outdoor terrace

the outdoor terrace needs to be more inviting. a table to go with the chairs would be nice and it requires maintenance. smashed plant pots, plants need taking care of, walls need repainting. for £600 fir 2 nights I would expect the property to be in great condition…this just let it down

A wonderful, quirky little cottage in a great location. Needs a few jobs finishing.

Perfect location, with a wonderful view at the back. One allocated car parking space, which is essential, as there is no parking available in the village. The log-burner was lovely.

The standard of cleaning was not great. All the bedding was fresh and clean, but the windows were very dirty and the outside space required cleaning. A few light bulbs were missing. The letterbox won't close which allows cold air to get in.

long weekend with family

wonderful quaint cottage in the heart of Staithes overlooking the beck. Just perfect. Heads were bumped a few times, at 6ft 7 my son had the most but that will not stop us from returning! We had a great time during our stay, the village had such a friendly atmosphere too

nothing to see here!

Superb

The location, the parking bay, log burner, oven, washing machine, very comfortable beds, good sharp knives, view across the beck, the tiled floors, interesting books, easily adjusted heating, tea coffee and milk provided, ample hot water, towels and toiletries.

Nowhere to hang coats, hats, or dressing gowns. The letterbox in the door needs adjusting to stay shut, we held open house parties for two storms; Dudley and Eunice... The bedroom windows also welcomed these winds. We used kitchen paper to block the draughts. There is no tin opener. The extreme height of the dining table -Hilarious!

Quaint and surprisingly large cottage great location

Great location right in the centre of a Staithes. Not much around but everywhere walkable. Nice contained yard at the back overlooking the estuary. Great if you have dogs. Good wifi. Accommodation is nicely presented. Fab pizzas and cakes ext door oh and homemade sausage rolls!!

Being picky here but hope it helps Sofas a little uncomfortable, no dishwasher tablets when asked to run dishwasher on exit, luke warm water, low outside wall to the estuary so watch if you are tall or excited dogs. Could do with a deep clean. First bedroom radiator did not work. Was given the wrong pin for the lock box, was told parking was available at £5 all day in public car park, did not know there was a designated parking space until day 2 from the friendly folk next door.

Fabulous stay at Staithes

Gulls Haven is a fabulous cottage in a perfect location in Staithes. The rooms were as shown, it was comfortable, cosy and met all our needs. There is a car park space right by the property and two great pubs nearby. The outdoor area is perfect for pre dinner drinks and has a view of the estuary.
