  Good location within 10 mins walk into main town/attraction area.

  Free street parking right outside and the streets nearby, if there are any spaces. We did find a space, so we had no problem. The property itself was generally good and spacious. The kitchen had a huge dining table with all the necessary cutlery, cups and plates. However, there were a few negative things. We couldn't figure out how to control the heating. We went when it was really warm and the radiators were still heating up. One side of the toaster started smoking, so it should be replaced. The washing machine didn't have drying function, so wouldn't be useful unless you were staying there for like a week. The bathroom skylight window was right above the toilet and had no blinds. It is on the top floor and maybe no one can see, but still felt weird and exposed at night time with the light on. There were 2 huge TV's in the top bedroom and the sitting room downstairs, and both did not receive any channels so they were useless. Only the little TV in the kitchen worked with a few channels.

  Enjoyed our stay at Ty Haf.

  Property is generally well equipped although the can opener could do with being upgraded. Snug sun room is a positive feature - despite the low sofa being a challenge to get up from if you have hip or knee mobility issues - compact back patio is a welcome sun trap. Bathroom has been modernised and provides the the option of both an efficient walk-in shower or bath with shower head available. Especially useful if you have children! Furniture is dated & living room dark but as we didn’t spend any time in it not a major issue for us. Visitors information needs updating as some of the recommended eating venues are no longer trading but generally helpful in providing trip options. Felt at home here & well worth considering staying here for families/ friends with or without children and dogs. If you have mobility issues it is a relatively steep hill to the beach and amenities.

  We have had a wonderful break away at Burrows.

  While there the Owner showed us their other property, ‘Applemill’ - both properties rivalled ones we have stayed in on the Chatsworth estate. A welcome of milk, teabags, coffee and chocolate cake on arrival. High quality towels, china, bedding provided. Plenty of hot water and heating available. We chose not to use the hot tub this time but would next time due to the rigorous maintenance testing schedule by the owners to ensure levels were correct. Dressing gowns provided for hot tub too! Property very comfortable throughout and open plan layout meant we all felt connected and joined in with meal preparation. Quiet location with beautiful views and sunset. Great night sky! Would definitely stay again and would like to stay at Applemill too! Sarah

  Dirty kitchen which we just dealt with as didn’t want to seem petty.

  Left the house as we found it. A week later Sykes/owners alleged we had left stains on the carpet which was untrue. Sykes notified us and immediately deducted money from our bank account despite us disputing the allegation and raising an issue as to the delay. I felt double aggrieved due to the dirty kitchen but when I raised that they said I didn’t raise it at the time. The same rules clearly don’t apply to owners. They took no action about the dirty kitchen and simply ignored my messages. I waited before posting this as I wanted to give them a chance to respond but they clearly don’t intend to. Very poor service. Shame as the property is in a wonderful location. Wouldn’t use or recommend again.

  Fantastic home, 5/10 mins walk from a quiet beach.

  Towels and bedding provided, the house was so clean and we really appreciated the extras like tea/coffee, washing up liquid and cleaning products. Did have to chase Sykes for the check in code, and there was no welcome info sheet in the home, which would have been a great touch. Nevertheless, we had a wonderful stay. Shower and separate bath were great and the enclosed garden for the dog was spot on. The cutlery draw is hidden above/inside the utensil draw. Plenty of things provided to cook with. Wifi was fantastic too. We enjoyed short drives to both Scarborough and Bridlington for days out, stopping at York on our drive back to MCR. Great house for kids & dogs, would 100% return.
