    2 Adults and 2 dogs. House was spotlessly clean. Fresh flowers, tea, coffee & biscuits waiting for you on arrival. Beds super comfortable and a nice sunny garden. Located at one end of the Main Street and perfectly located to walk into town or thru the park to the beach. The people in Hornsea are so friendly and really helpful with ideas of places to visit. Could not recommend this cottage highly enough.

  • "Excellent week in Hornsea."

    Elizabeth House was located perfectly. spotlessly clean on arrival, fresh flowers in all the rooms and a generous welcome pack greeted us. The rooms were a good size and had everything we could possibly want or think of. Free parking on the side street and having taken 2 cars we never struggled to park up. We were able to reverse up a small rear drive to unpack. The area was perfect for exploring - 2 local parks (with playgrounds)for early morning dog walks. 15 minutes stiroll through the town to the sea. Excellent variety of interesting shops. The sea front was clean and dog friendly to the right hand side. 3 pubs and an excellent war bar on the doorstep. The Italian was great as was Mas Indian. The Mere was beautiful and we did the 10k walk around it. We explored and would recommend Spurn head ( no dogs) and Flambourgh head . The fish & chips at the lighthouse in flambourgh village were amazing, though Lilys in the town were also very good. A super week , fabulous house, friendly helpful owners - highly recommend

    The owner Nick was very welcoming and on hand if needed for minor maintenance issues such as a problem with one of the kitchen lights. The welcome pack was a nice touch, as was being told in advance what was in it so we needn't buy such items. The house is very well equipped and the beds comfortable. It was spotlessly clean and the small back garden nicely maintained. We had 3 cars and found no problem parking nearby on the street. Only Downside was the road noise as no double glazing but we had earplugs so still slept well!

    Lovely fresh flowers and chocolates awaited us on our arrival along with tea and coffee. Thankyou very much to Nick. If I have one criticism it is just that the house is on a very busy main road and the noise is very loud from about 6am in the morning and as the windows are only single glazed you hear everything. It wouldn’t put us off returning though.

    However, we are not impressed by the builders gutting the house attached to us (row of terraced properties) This started outside mid week through our stay- noisily filling a skip at the rear garage 8am onwards, the following day banging inside the house and they also arrived on the Friday am and started work. We did not expect to pay over £1,000 for a holiday home to be disturbed by builders. We were unable to sit outside for those 3 mornings for breakfast.

  • "The house itself is lovely and generally well equipped."

    The kitchen had everything we could’ve possibly needed. One small but very useful addition to the property would be a clothes airer - the weather was so bad we couldn’t hang washing on the line. Well situated for the Mere and the town and only a ten minute walk to the seafront. A lovely welcome pack was provided and very much appreciated (great to have a cup of tea after a long drive and not even need to unpack) and it was nice to have the bird feeders in the garden that had obviously been filled before we arrived. We loved watching the sparrows have their breakfast whilst we had ours. The only disappointing thing (and it’s quite a big thing) is that there is no off-street parking. The listing suggests that this is available and it was definitely one of my criteria when looking for a holiday rental. I have an autistic son and off-street parking makes it safer for him and easier for me. We managed the situation ok but I really think this amenity needs to be removed from the listing - we were able to pull up behind the house to unload but then had to find on street parking and with double yellow lines in front of the property it meant trying to find a space in a side street, often a few minutes walk from the property.
