• "We couldn’t fault the accommodation, it was a great location, everything you needed was within walking distance."

  The kids loved the pool, we bought along inflatables and plenty of pool toys and it was a struggle to get them back out. As mentioned the beach was also within walking distance and we were lucky to have some great weather whilst we were away. The accommodation itself was spacious, the kitchen was fully equipped, great to have tableware for the kids as I’m always worried they would damage something. The TV’s in each room were a bonus for that amount of people. The living area was our favourite, plenty of space for everyone to chill and relax together after dinner. My only drawback was the pool area started to smell very damp/sewage on the 2nd from and last day we were there, I’m not sure if the chlorine levels needed to be checked more frequently. Although the kids didn’t seem to be bothered by it, none of us adults really used the pool with the smell. Honestly though this didn’t deter from the great week we had here, we are likely to return and would 100% recommend both the location and accommodation to anyone with a large / extended family.

• "The property was amazing, the pool was great for us & the rooms were great."

  So local to everywhere but out of the way. Had to double check the tv as it wasn’t working in the pool area however quick call was sorted and understood. Overall, would come back and recommend to everyone.

• "Walk in shower temperature was broken and was set to scolding hot - other shower / toilet had no door locks for privacy so we had to take showers in-the pool area."

  (owner said this was being sorted) Toaster only working one side Door stoppers did not work - resulting in constant door banging Could have had a baby safety gate for stairs Most of tv remotes had no working batteries

  Many thanks for your review firstly the TV remotes I have checked and all are working you have to hold the power button on to put the skybox on then the TV I understand that this may not be clear so it’s what I’m going to do is pop this in the instructions for the property Fortunately the previous guests had broken in the shower by forcing the thermostatic valve around I have had this replaced unfortunately I could not get anyone out on Saturday to supply and fit a new shower Thank you for making me aware of the toaster I have now replaced this And all the fire doors do have rubber stops on the frame but unfortunately they are heavy doors due to being fired doors and if closed fast they will bang Many thanks Rob Property Owner

• "Upon arrival at nightingales we found; -dining chair to be falling apart (taken and repaired, returned 3 days later) -bathroom door handle/catch didn’t work/latch (told this required a tradesman so wouldn’t be repaired during our stay, had to use a piece of string to hold door closed whilst in the toilet or bath/shower) -Upper oven temperature control is broken (turns all the way round with no resistance,) temperature is stuck at max and if we weren’t vigilant could of set fire to a lasagne we put in there!"

  -ice machine on fridge freezer was frozen solid, fridge has had a rudimentary repair on both sides using corrugated plastic and sticky tape. -Right hand side of toaster doesn’t work -dishwasher drain filter was extremely fouled up -seat pads on kitchen chairs extremely loose/no screws -main bathroom bath taps, Hot is Cold, Cold is Hot. Extremely dangerous! -1st floor room with en suite hair dryer glowed red and got extremely hot upon use, Extremely dangerous! -1st floor en suite toilet seat extremely loose, shower temp adjuster very stiff/difficult to use -corner sofa ends very loose and sunken Also, during our stay on the 29th we had a visit from E.on who were trying to locate the gas meter for number 27, I said we were staying in 27 but had no idea where it was. E.on man asked for contact details for owner as the number he had nobody was answering, I didn’t give any details to him. Although we were comfortable and enjoyed our stay, I think it’s clear from the above that there were numerous issues that make me feel that we didn’t get value for money, to the point that I hope that some form of good will gesture may be offered. I have listed the issues we found so as that the owner can rectify before others stay and feel the same way that I do now.

• "This is a lovely house, very clean and great fixtures, fittings and furniture."

  The top rooms are a little small for 2 adults but we managed. The swimming pool and garden are beautiful. However tbe owners part of the house over looks this area. But they went away for the weekend so no issues for us with privacy but to be fair it probably wouldn’t be a problem if they had stayed. It’s about a 20 minutes walk to the beach and plenty of amenities around. Plenty of car parking space. Overall we had a brilliant time here and we’ve all said we’d definitely come again.

• "The apartment was immaculate we had everything we needed and all ages loved the pool."

  It’s in a super area for access to town and beach yet quiet and feels welcoming. The littlest ones quickly devoured the chocolates!! Plenty of parking for all three cars. For future reference maybe a list of nearest doctors etc and a do not touch sign on the “ice off “ button on the fridge freezer as our teens thought it made the ice machine work!!!!! Great holiday and will def be back. Highly recommend this amazing place.

• "If anyone is staying at the Nightingales here are a few tips, there wasn’t any cleaning equipment left just a dishcloth and 1 dishwasher tablet, there was 2 tea towels left which was good ."

  If you are taking young children there was only grown up crockery so was a bit daunting at times. I have written it in the comments book so may be sorted for future rentals. The swimming pool was a bonus for the children they loved that and tired them out in an evening ready for bed. The owner was helpful when I spoke to him . Be aware anyone staying in the attic rooms the ceilings are very low. Overall we had a great week in Bridlington

• "We had a great time, 5 of us (2 adults and 3 kids)."

  The kids all got their own rooms, so quite indulgent and we had 2 guests stay one night and we didn't feel like we were crowded. Maybe a few extra utensils and pans wouldn't have gone amiss but no big deal tbh. Whilst one of the other reviews noted the shared aspect with the owner downstairs in a completely separate flat, it was no problem for us and we were left to our own devices...we could use the pool as much as we liked without the hassle of having to book or share like some other places (and the kids could not be dragged out of it on most days). It had an exercise bike as well so I could keep watch on our kids in the pool and cycle at the same time, shower and then jump in with them..all with the ever present Smart TV screens. The massive TV in the lounge was great for us to settle with a good film after a good day out and exhausted from the pool..with Sky movies included. Closest beach is less than 5 miles away, an abundance of fish n chip shops, combined with trips to Whitby and Robin Hood's Bay, it was a good week, even with the rain on and off but that the British Summer for you - take some macs and don't worry about it. I think you'd be hard pressed to get the seaside and private pool combo for this price. Just make sure whoever stays at the top of the house isn't too tall as they'll likely bump their head in the eves. The only thing to note is that the listing says it has an EV charger but it doesn't and it was fine for me as Rob, the owner told me in advance. I left home without my cables to charge anyhow but found that the nearby Morrisons had a nice spot/fast charger if needed (whilst getting a cheeky coffee or breakfast). Oh and take extra towels or you'll be forever washing them if you're going in the pool a lot and if you're like me and don't like the noise of the machine clanking away when you're trying to relax then take some extras! Great place overall - would recommend.

• "When I booked it, I was sure it was a house not an apartment."

  I think this info was changed on the listing after I had booked. I found it hard to relax at night as I was conscious of the kids making noise and disturbing the owners downstairs. It felt like neither of us had any privacy. Location was perfect, and the apartment was perfect in the end. The pool was a hit with the kids but again felt awkward walking through owners garden. Communication wasn't get great either.

• "Really enjoyed our stay here during February half term."

  The apartment is very comfortable with great facilities. The pool is a great added feature and the temperature is perfect. Definitely hope to visit again in the future as lots of shops and the coast very close by.

• "Total let down for the cost!"

  We turn up to find crumbs on the side, food dried into the over gloves, data cables hanging out of the wall (with kids around), the main oven not working, which was known by the owner and failed to attempt to resolve this through our stay. Loud music could be heard from possibly the owners tv below one of the bedrooms. Really disappointed with it for the price,

• "High quality property and central location to all amenities."

  We were greeted by a lovely welcome hamper which following a commute with 5 children was greatly appreciated. The house was immaculate - every room decorated beautifully. The pool was used daily - a challenge to get the kids out of there!!!! Every appliance we needed was available and Rob was a fantastic host! Highly recommend- 5* and we will definitely be rebooking for next year.
