  • "Iris was in the perfect position for our holiday requirements."

    As a keen photographer we were very close to RSPB bempton. Early mornings were spent on the cliff edge and late evenings also. This left all day for visiting local coastal towns such as Scarborough and Whitby. The weather was a huge bonus and allowed us to make the most of every day. Having the bungalow to come back to each evening was enjoyable. A quiet location and very comfortable place to stay. Will definitely return..

    We had a problem with the door it was supposedly sorted, had to complain again, was made to feel it was us not lifting handle properly, we left with it not locked properly. The one biggest dissapointing thing was the garden not as advertised, chairs were dirty tables were rusty so unable to sit out. There were dead plants weeds, decking was in need of attention.

    I’m not a fan of the pebbles in the garden but I suppose it’s lower maintenance and the decking was slippery when it rains. .

    As usual a lovely stay at iris much better now there is a grab rail outside,well equipped bungalow,comfy beds,our only concern was the bathroom needs a blind at window, as there is no extractor fan you need to have window open when in shower and it overlooks next door so if they come out of their property they can see you stood in shower

    We went to among other places York, well worth a day. The only slight problems were aerial TV reception is unreliable and patchy but as we are not great TV watchers not an issue. Struggled with the heating instructions which I struggled to comprehend but of course that could just be me.

    The property was nice and clean, although the decking was in need of a power wash. The garden furniture was a little tired, but fit for purpose. A washing up bowl would be helpful as would be at least some washing up liquid, surface cleaner and loo cleaner, I appreciate it’s a self catering holiday but a few basics but be welcome. All that said we would stay there again.

  • "The property was very clean and as described."

    The only issue we had was the large double right-hand side bed was in a poor state and very uncomfortable, fortunately, there were only three of us so we swapped into the smaller bedroom and used only the left and side of the large bed. I think it is most likely that someone at some time must have used the bed as a trampline as it was quite obvious that it had serious sping damage. Not wishing to sound petty but a bread knife would be a handy tool to have in the cutlery.

    The owner had supplied plenty of tea bags, coffee, sugar and milk to start us off on on our arrival.

I would certainly recommend this property and would stay there again. One of the best we have stayed in.
