"I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Staks Cottage, so much so, that I am taking another friend to see it next weekend."
The Cottage was everything and more than I /we had expected. It was clean, comfortable, well equipped and even had throws for the sofas. The cottage is nicely tucked away in a corner and is easily accessible. The site is very well maintained and with a gym, swimming pool, pharmacy, pub and beach what is there not to like. I can honestly say that I will be back here for as many times as possible.

"Lovely cottage, well equipped clean and comfortable."
Very peaceful spot of the park.
Front grass area could do with being tidied up as weeds and long grass looked abit uuninviting, but other than that a cracking little place, we loved it!

"On the whole, it was a really enjoyable stay."
It’s a great location and out of the way of the main stretch, but close enough to the pub and shop. Just a couple of pointers that need rectifying. House is in good condition and feels spacious and airy.
The hot water kicks out often and only comes back on when you reset the boiler, which takes quite a while. Not a huge issue but took a while to figure out (what the issue was) and is quite frustrating when you’ve got kids and trying to get everybody out of the house quickly.
The other is the bed in the double room is probably worn out and creaks every time you move.
Those two issues aside, it’s a lovely place. We arrived and the kettle wasn’t working properly and was mired in limescale. We reported it and within an hour or so, a new kettle was delivered. Would happily stay again.
Other reviews referencing lack of pots etc have clearly been rectified as the kitchen was well-stocked. No BBQ stand outside, so just be aware if you were wanting to have one.
Good morning Mr Cooper , firstly thanks for choosing Staks cottage
The heating controls as been messed with on the Hive thermostat for the hot water , we have this running constant normally but it as been changed by persons unknown , this as now been rectified
We will look into the bed situation & will action appropriately

"A few things like the bedroom bedside light bulb was defective and the outside light didnt work."
We seemed to have alot of flys buzzing around the lounge well over a dozen not sure where they came from ! (We had the patio door open for awhile as it was hot) maybe worth investigating. The fridge struggled to keep to temperature.

"Really enjoyed our stay."
The property is very welcoming, clean, well equipped, comfortable, and spacious enough for 4 people in a quiet part of the resort. It's conveniently located to use the on site facilities and you're just a short drive from Filey and Scarborough. Couldn't have been better as we had great weather all week as well

"Lovely cottage,warm and cosy."
Well equipped with all the essentials( a small wok and extra frying pan would have been useful).The walk from the cottage to the beach with our small dog took longer than expected,about 15-20 mins,so we went instead to nearby Hunmanby Gap which is lovely, with good, reasonably priced parking, excellent Beach Cafe and great beach.
We enjoyed our stay at Stak's Cottage and would recommend it for those looking for a relaxing break.

"Oven and oven tray were really dirty and doesn’t appear to have been cleaned for quite some time."
Kettle needed descaling. Skylight in hallway not been cleaned and looked dusty. Had to phone maintenance company twice as dodgy electrics power kept tripping in kitchen. Water scalding hot.
Lovely little cottage which I would book again if the above gets sorted

"Property was comfortable incredibly quiet and generally well equipped but carpets and suite need to be cleaned."
We were very disappointed to find that there was virtually no washing up liquid, no dishwasher tablets, no scourer or surface wiper and no spare toilet roll. These we would expect as a minimum. In our experience it is also usual to expect salt, pepper, cooking oil in self catering accommodation. It is also welcome to find milk, tea(there were a few tea bags) and biscuits. There was no welcome pack with details about the property site or the area. No personal communication from the owner. There was minimal provision of games, books etc.. Not an issue for us but would certainly have been significant if children had been staying. With a few tweaks this property could be very good.

"We have stayed at many properties at the bay and love the location of staks cottage."
The cottage is very comfortable and warm .A couple of things that would be in my opinion would make it even better are a small information pack I know we have Google these days but on arrival would make it simpler.The other thing I would say is a blind at the patio as the other cottages can see into your living room.This wouldn't stop me booking staks again A lovely home.

"We had a fantastic stay at the Staks Cottage, the location was lovely and the cottage itself has all you need."
The only thing i would have liked to have is an information pack for the house and resort, swimming information, restaurants, and local things to do ect as the wifi worked for about a day.

"Staks Cottage was the perfect location for us to stay on Holiday this year."
Tucked away in a quiet corner of the holiday village, the property is decorated beautifully, features all of the facilities we needed during our week's stay and we had good communication from Darren the owner. Our only criticisms are that the Wi-Fi was often slow and we would warn future residents that the taps can get scalding hot very quickly!
