Guests say
Felicity House is a well-equipped, charming cottage praised for its cleanliness, modern amenities, and prime location in Staithes. Guests appreciate the comfortable furnishings, cosy wood burner, and the convenience of a parking space. The picturesque setting and thoughtful touches, such as dog blankets, enhance the stay, despite some minor issues with heating and seagull noise.
Guests consistently describe the cottage as spotlessly clean upon arrival, indicating a high standard of cleanliness that contributes positively to their overall experience.
The location is highly praised for its convenience, accessibility, and the added bonus of a parking space, despite the tight fit and steep approach. Its proximity to local attractions and the sea is a highlight for many visitors.
The cottage is noted for its comfortable furnishings and cosy atmosphere, with guests feeling at home. Some guests mention issues with heating, but the availability of a wood burner and additional heaters mitigates this concern.
The property is well-equipped with modern bathrooms and a kitchen that meets guests' needs. However, some guests experienced issues with the shower, hot water, and electric heaters, which suggests room for improvement in maintenance.
While guests appreciate the thoughtful provisions such as dog blankets and basic supplies, there is no mention of gifts, and therefore it cannot be confirmed if such gestures are a regular practice. As a result, the score for this category is set to null.

Staithes is within the North York Moors National Park so stunning scenery and traditional Yorkshire villages are in abundance. The village has a good local pub serving food, as well as a shop for essentials. Staithes is a great place for fossil hunting and in the summer you see many children enjoying searching the rock pools and crevices for these fossils. The village is like stepping back in time with its cobbled streets and quaint, quirky cottages that lead down to the harbour where you can sit and enjoy a drink with the locals at the pub. Staithes has now become a great artists retreat with an excellent art festival held every year.
The property is perfect for those walkers amongst you as you can walk along the clifftops following the trail to Whitby and further on the Robin Hood’s Bay and Ravenscar. The town of Whitby is just 8 miles away and is one of the most visited fishing towns on the coast, famous for the abbey being the inspiration to Bram Stoker’s book ’Dracula’.

Felicity House is in an amazing location and well equipped. Our only issue was with the shower and hot water which despite following the instructions was a bit hit or miss.

Beautiful cottage, spotless and very well equipped. Excellent bathrooms, cosy wood burner and perfectly situated with a parking space. Our only query were the electric heaters in the living room which were preset but never actually came on. Fortunately we could light the wood burner in the evening. Would definitely rebook.

Great little house, well equipped and modern throughout. I'd have no hesitation returning here for another holiday.
