We had a superb holiday in Whitby and the local area. The accommodation was excellent. During our stay the cooker stopped working, it was replaced immediately by the owners. One small negative there wasn't a gas barbecue as advertised. That being said we still had a lovely stay at Eastside house.

Nice house but then you get inside sit down on the suite and it's like sitting on the floor. We went out sat on the rattan chairs and they snapped it was rotted , went into the ensuite bedroom looked in the ensuite and it had black mold in the shower end not very good with where to hang your clothes just a small box with shelves that just past my waist, good job we never cook while we're away because was told there was a problem with the cooker and would be fixed on the Wednesday we were leaving on the Friday
