"This was a beautiful cottage in a fantastic location."
The views from the front rooms looking across the bay were stunning and the beach was literally across the road. There was everything that we needed and it was very clean and tidy. The location was ideal for visiting tourist attractions and there was plenty to do nearby. We were even lucky enough to see dolphins in the bay. Owners were friendly and attentive. Would definitely recommend and hope to visit again.

"We had a great stay in this lovely house, just looking out the window every morning raises your spirits with the great views."
The house is really comfortable, with everything you need to enjoy your holiday. We just had to walk across the road in front of the house, and we could sit on a bench and watch the sailing boats having fun on the water, great.

"Beautiful views and plenty of places to visit in the area."
Lisa is an artist so an added interest. We were lucky to see Dolphins too. The facilities are brilliant with plenty of light and a very large kitchen diner with concentina doors to the courtyard. You've got to be aware of two lots of steep stairs, but we managed them easily and we're in our early 70's.

"Lisa was a very welcoming host."
The house is a fantastic space, light, clean, comfortable and well equipped. The wildlife & views at the front of the house, across the bay rivalled the TV for our 3&7 year old children as well as us! The location was great for us as a family: beach right outside for exploring rock pools, close to nature reserves, huge sandy beaches, nice playgrounds, trampoline/ inflatables park, swimming pool & petting farm all within a short drive.

"The only sad thing about York Place Gallery is that we couldn’t stay longer."
Everything about the “cottage” from Lisa’s very warm welcome to the comfort of the facilities, the sunrise over the bay and the location for visiting the north-east was perfect.
And it was really helpful that Lisa was always only a text away to answer any queries and offer advice.
We were really impressed by the friendliness of the locals. They were so pleasant and helpful ( Don’t forget to look for “Andy Capp”, just round the corner).

"Just home, regrettably, from York Place Gallery, The Headland, Hartlepool after a wonderful week on the north east coast."
The "cottage" - really a house that just feels as cosy as a cottage, is in prime position, a matter of metres from the beach. We were able to drink a morning cup of tea in bed and watch the sun rise across the water and at the end of the day, watch it set. Such amazing skies. The cottage, in truth, a tardis, was comfortable and warm, with a delightful welcome from our hostess. Everything - and more - was provided to make our stay memorable and it was always a joy to get back after a great day`s sight-seeing, whether locally or further afield. Highly commended.

"It was good to meet Lisa (the owner) who was very friendly and enthusiastic about the house and area."
She also left us wine and biscuits that were very welcome.
The house was very comfortable and we had everything we needed. The view from the front windows of the surrounding bay was wonderful. The walk along the front towards the battery was lovely and the architecture, houses and private parks great to discover.
The Hartlepool locals were extremely friendly and helpful and wanting to engage in conversation.
The only drawback for me was that when on holiday I like to be able to park the car and use local amenities. There was really only 1 restaurant to eat in and no independant shops or coffee houses. This meant the car or bus every day.
Thank you for your lovely comments. It’s worth mentioning that the bus stop is just 5 mins away and runs every 10 minutes. The lnearest pub is now serving coffee and cakes, and the cafe at the war museum has great reviews. Sadly though not open during winter months. Property Owner

"Hartlepool doesn't sound the most romantic of locations, but we really enjoyed our stay there."
There was a lot of history to discover and places to visit nearby, and our favourite memory is of staying next to the promenade and sea front, seeing the sea from the bedroom window, and walking the dogs along the front each day. The house itself was warm, comfortable and welcoming (and full of local artwork), and the neighbours were very friendly - as were the people we met locally, such as the 2nd world war museum nearby.

"Hartlepool may not seem like the obvious place for a summer holiday but the position of this house in an elegant row of Victorian town houses directly overlooking the sea would be hard to beat."
The house itself was spotlessly clean, spacious and very well equipped an the owner’s art works throughout were an added bonus. There is such a lot to do within an hour’s drive (especially if you like trains) and Hartlepool itself is well provided with no less than three hypermarkets! The people we met were unfailingly friendly too. Recommended.

"Lisa, the owner is a very warm welcoming host."
The house is very well equipped with loads of little extras which are not usually provided. The only television is in the large kitchen which has a comfatable sofa to watch it from. We thought that this would be a problem as both the downstairs and the first floor lounges are so warm and comfortable we thought thats where the Tv's should be. We were wrong. We rediscovered the joy of just relaxing listening to cds or the radio (on the newly installed player in the first floor lounge )while appreciating the view over the bay, It was so good to get away from the depressing news during the new wave of covid. Lisa even took the trouble to email suggestions for places to visit when the weather turned rainy. The Duke of Cleveland bar and restaurant just behind the house is excellent very friendly, covid safe with good very reasonably priced meals and drinks.

Lisa provides lots of little extras compared to other cottages.. The cottages is great for walks with the dog as it is on the costal path. Only reccomendation would be to consider adding tv or stereo. In the sea view lounge as it is nice to enjoy the views whilst relaxing in the evening.. we really enjoyed our stay, thank you Lisa.

The little presents on arrival were a lovely touch and kept our little girl entertained when we wasn't out and about. The views from the house were amazing and we could of easily stayed longer than the two nights. The only thing missing was a TV in the upstairs living room, as its so cosy its the perfect place to snuggle up on an evening and watch a film. We would stay again
