"Fabulous house - scrupulously clean - lovely and warm when we arrived - lovely welcome pack - superb facilities throughout and a games room as an added bonus."
Host was wonderful, responded extremely quickly to messages. Excellent location, five minute walk to the beach and Filey and Scarborough within a few minutes drive. A pub just a two minute walk away and Cayton just a 15 minute walk. Couldn’t recommend the property or the location highly enough.
Thanks so much for your feedback Mark, It is very much appreciated. We try our utmost to give the best experience we can to guests and so to hear you enjoyed your time at the dollhouse is really pleasing. We hope to welcome you back soon. Property Owner

"Beautiful property."
Maintained to an extremely high standard. Modern and comfortable, with off street parking for 2 cars. Had everything that we needed, from appliances to games to enjoy as a family. The garden games room is a great extra, allowing great family time. Perfectly situated on a regular bus route, allowing us to park our car on the drive and relax all weekend. We didn't want to leave. A lovely welcome pack left by the owners was a very lovely welcoming touch. We will most definitely be booking a stay again.
Thanks so much for taking the time to leave your feedback Cathryn . We’re very happy that you enjoyed your time at the dollhouse, we look forward to seeing you back soon Property Owner

"We had a wonderful stay at the Dollhouse."
It was spacious, clean, well equipped and homely. The second lounge area was brilliant and a lovely area to sit with the patio doors open and look out into the garden. Beds were extremely comfortable and large and the rooms had plenty of space to store clothes. The upstairs bedroom was beautiful with lovely views and the bathroom had a large bath in it which was great! The games room was a great addition to the property and we had plenty of gaming competitions and so much fun. It was also lovely to have board games and books to use and access to Netflix. The pub down the road was nice. Had a play area for the children and lovely food. It really was a wonderful holiday and im so glad we chose this property. There was only one thing that could add a little extra to this property and that would be to have a hot tub. Thank you so much for a wonderful holiday

"Plenty of space for five of us and the dog."
The property had every thing we needed, welcome pack was a nice touch including treats for the dog. Quiet location we found it to be a good base for exploring the coast. Dog friendly garden. The potted ornamental trees in the front garden do seem to blow over in easily when its windy (but we did have a very windy week) Overall we enjoyed our stay.
Thanks for your feedback Terry, we are really happy that you enjoyed your stay at the dollhouse. We hope to welcome you back soon and thank you for the heads up re wind….. we shall see what we can do about securing the tubs down more firmly. Property Owner

"Had a wonderful stay at the dollhouse, it had everything we needed, nice big driveway, big back garden with plenty of seating."
It has a beautiful modern theme running through the house, comfy beds. We was greated by a lovely welcome card and basket containing bread, butter, milk, wine, cider and beer which was fabulous. Great location 5 minute walk to the dog friendly pub, 10 minute walk to the beach. We had direct contact with Jon the owner who was very helpful and at hand if we needed anything. Scarborough and Filey both within 10 minutes drive and also very dog friendly. Would highly recommend the dollhouse.
Thanks Jemma for taking the time and leaving your feedback. We are really happy you enjoyed your time at the dollhouse and look forward to welcoming you back soon.kindest regards Property Owner

"Lots of room within the property for us all on our holiday this year."
To have 2 separate sitting areas was fab and the pool table and arcade machine was fantastic. The property is super close to the beach and is easily walkable. Our dog loved being able to go to the beach each day for her walk. Off road parking was great and the supermarkets are a short drive away if you wanted like us to cook yourself.
Hi David, thanks so much for your feedback, it is very much appreciated. We have tried very hard to give our guests the best experience that we can so it’s great to hear you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again in the near future. Property Owner

"Had a most amazing stay at the Dollhouse."
The house has everything you need and more. The games room was so lovely to hang out in the evenings after a long day out. Ideally located with plenty of dog friendly pubs and beaches near by. The Tow Bar pub was lovely, food really good, with inside and outdoor seating. Visits to Scarborough, Filey, Bridlington and Whitby. Lovely walk into Cayton to “The Russtic Tea Room”, again food great and so dog friendly. Our dogs Otis and Lexi walked their little socks off whilst here, and ran free at Filey Country Park. Also, thanks for the lovely welcome pack; we had such a lovely holiday and plan to return soon Mandy & Paul
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave your feedback. We are glad you enjoyed your time at the dollhouse, we chose the dollhouse ourselves for the location with the facilities the surroundings provide. We hope to see your return very soon. Property Owner

"We had a lovely week staying in the Doll House."
Everything was spotlessly clean and very well equipped. The welcome pack was a a very thoughtful gesture. There is a very large clean beach nearby at the bottom of a cliff which is perfect for dogs. Lots of nice places to visit in the area and good eating establishments.

"We enjoyed a very comfortable and enjoyable stay at the Dollhouse."
It is amazing how much has been crammed into what is essentially a small dormer bungalow. A very clever use of space in every area although I think accommodating six people could be a struggle. Well stocked with everything you need for a stress free stay and a great welcome pack including beer and a lovely bottle of wine.The place is a perfectly situated retreat for visiting the beautiful surrounding area whilst being in a lovely quiet spot. A couple of small negatives were the glitchy internet tv in the main bedroom and the games room / shed in the garden which we were looking forward to using but was a bit small for adults but perfect for children. The positives of the Dollhouse definitely out way the small negatives though and we wouldn’t hesitate to visit this place again. Thank you for a great little holiday.
Thanks so much for your feedback Kerry. We’re really pleased you enjoyed your stay and look forward to welcoming you back again. Lainey and Jon Property Owner

"We stayed at the Dollhouse for 3 nights this weekend and had an amazing stay."
Our hosts Jon and Lainey made up the two singles to a super king for us which was appreciated as we’re two tall blokes! There was milk in the fridge (and beers and rose wine) plus a lovely loaf of bread. The water pressure is amazing and the shower was great! We had all cooking equipment we needed for the stay. The outside garden was great for the dogs. There’s an amazing pub down the road called the Farrier and it’s so close to the beach for a walk & easy to get to Filey and Bridlington. We’d stay back here in a heartbeat.
Thank you so much for your lovely review and for leaving The Dollhouse so clean and tidy! We’re thrilled you had a great stay and very much look forward to welcoming you back again soon :) Property Owner
