“Very disappointed about the extensive black mould inside the shower tray/shower wall edge on the sealant and glass door frame and mould on the tile grouting in the shower and also black mould on the rain shower head and the thick amount of fluff on both the extractor fans in the bathroom and kitchen is not acceptable - poor housekeeping /cleanliness which has obviously built up over time due to poor cleaning between rentals.”

The bathroom extractor fan did not work - probably due to the thick amount of dust on it. I had to clean the rain shower head before being able to use the shower - not something I should have to do on a holiday and at the cost of the weeks rental. The small frying pan was very badly scratched and needs replacing - they are not expensive.

“We’ve stayed in this property a few times, it’s very well maintained, comfortable and has a fantastic outlook.”

It’s a great base for getting about, bus stop a 100 meters, beach literally outside the door. We will return again later in the year, missing it already!

“Lovely apartment with great view out of the front french window and juliette balcony onto the whole beach.”

Being high up means the road is not very visible, and the beach and sea panorama is spectacular at all times and tides. Apartment is compact but space is well used. We appreciated the good quality equipment, and little touches like some salt and pepper, handsoap and washing up liquid/dishwasher tablets (just needed a dishwashing sponge). Just a few points which may be helpful to others: Parking - a few spaces available and free on the street but a bit hit and miss as to whether you get a space; otherwise car park is £6 per day, less than 5 minutes walk away, but a bit far if trying to load/unload. Entrance door is quite stiff to lock (and handle needs lifting to lock - exit only by key), and is shared with Flat 2, so may be left unlocked at times. Entrance lobby seems a little damp but the flat itself is well maintained. Entrance door is effectively one floor up garden steps, then one floor to Flat 3 door, then one more floor up to the flat itself. We booked through Sykes Cottages and found them to be very helpful.

“Really lovely flat - the pictures do not do it justice.”

Fantastic view and very well equipped. Great service from Sykes and I hope to return. The only thing I would have liked is a better lock on the internal door and a Yale type lock on the front door so that it locks automatically. I came down one morning to find the front door left unlocked. Apart from that - a real gem!

“Fabulous apartment, perfect position and views, making it a great holiday, love the new decor in the second bedroom, glad to see the mirror.”

Missing the chandeliers in the front we loved them, however we like the new silver swirl lights too. We love it and will keep coming back

“Photograph of apaertment failed to indicate the number of stepps to the upper apartment which includes steps from street level and not from beach as appears from photo.”

Not suitable for two oap's (74 and 76)

“The apartment is beautifully decorated on the third floor with good facilities as in kitchen facilities , WiFi and television .”

The views are spectacular from the Juliet balcony . Sandsend has a beautiful beach . Unfortunately the accommodation is set back and accessible by steps and we did not manage to get parked throughout our stay making unloading luggage /shopping difficult . There is a public car park lower down about a 5 minute walk away that is chargeable . Cleanliness did not meet our expectations , floors had not been cleaned and were visibly dirty . The shower screens had also not been cleaned well and the toilet seat was broken , but my husband managed to repair it . Food products left in the freezer from the previous guests, bread bin and kitchen bin visibly unclean . Storage in the second bedroom a challenge too - storage available under the bed but this was visibly unclean and hook available along with hangers on the back of the bedroom door . The hallway to the apartment is shared with the apartment below. For the duration of our stay the front door was left open by the apartment below, we felt this was a security concern . The hallway was often cluttered by belongings from those in the apartment below , and it was damp (possibly from the door being open continuously ) and unclean . The apartments are on a busy road and traffic can be continuous at certain times of the day . Sandsend is a lovely little place and there are a few eateries within walking distant and Whitby isn’t far . We enjoyed our stay once I had cleaned and vacuumed through the apartment . We do feel that in comparison to our second accommodation we stayed at in Whitby this was overpriced and we would probably not stay again nor recommend .

“Sykes does not know what facilities are available , eg the listing states that off road parking is available but there is none.”

When i enquired sykes stated no dish washer or washing machine is available but both were available

“Lovely apartment in a beautiful location.”

Due to Corona we couldn’t get into the local restaurants and couldn’t even get a cuppa in Whitby as it was raining throughout our stay, and everyone else had the same idea (only limited numbers allowed in). Thankfully we had a fabulous base and we had a great time anyway - would definitely return when we have some better weather. Host was great, happy with communication and level of service providers for this property. Would definitely recommend.

The property

Flat 3, Peacehaven, is a contemporary second floor apartment set in the heart of the pint-sized fishing village of Sandsend, overlooking the picturesque seas of the North Yorkshire and Cleveland Heritage Coast.

Enjoying close proximity to a fantastic selection of amenities and attractions, Flat 3, Peacehaven, is an idyllic base for a small family or two couples seeking a seaside escape in this sought-after region.

Step inside and be enchanted by the open-plan living space's contemporary décor, which is bathed with natural light welcoming in through the Juliet balcony, offering unspoilt views of the tranquil waters of the North Sea.

After a day of activity, dust off your sandy toes and relax in front of the television for a quiet moment before heading over to the well-equipped kitchen to whip up some scrumptious goodies for your loved ones.

Uncork a bottle of wine and serve your culinary delights at the dining table, where you can indulge as the fresh sea breeze flows freely through the French doors.

As the evening grows darker, prepare for bed with a quick rinse under the luxurious waterfall head in the contemporary shower room before retiring to one of the two tastefully decorated double bedrooms, each with its own TV, so you can catch up on your favourite show from the comfort of the covers. Take a break from the kitchen and treat your loved ones to some delicious pub fare at The Hart Inn, or head to the Fish Cottage to savour the catch of the day.

Pack up your bucket and spade and head to Sandsend Beach, where you can spend a fun-filled afternoon paddling the shores, basking in the sun's rays, or tackling the waves.

A scenic stroll along the glorious golden sand will lead you to Whitby, a popular seaside town famous for being the inspiration behind Bram Stoker's Dracula.

Here, you can climb the 199 Steps to the mediaeval ruins of Whitby Abbey, which offer sweeping views of the harbour from the top, or take a tour of Whitby Museum to learn more about the fascinating local history.

Avid walkers can follow The Cinder Track through North Yorkshire's scenic countryside toward the picture-perfect fishing village of Robin Hoods Bay, or for more sights and attractions, jump in the car and visit Staithes, Saltburn, or Runswick Bay, all of which are well worth a visit.

Whether you want to relax or go on an adventure, Flat 3, Peacehaven is a great place to start.

About the location

SANDSEND

Whitby 2.5 miles.

Lying on Yorkshire's spectacular Heritage Coastline, Sandsend is the ideal place for a family holiday with its award winning, wide sweeping beaches, rock pools and dramatic cliffs. Indeed this part of the coastline is known locally as the Dinosaur Coast because of the many fossils found here. In the season, beachside stalls offer everything from light snacks and drinks to boats, buckets and spades! Children will enjoy damming the little beck where it crosses the beach to form a freshwater lagoon - great (and safe) for paddling and boating! For the more energetic the village sits on the lovely long distance Cleveland Way Trail, which offers great off-road cycling along the disused coastal railway as well as breathtaking clifftop walks. The National Trust now own the nearby headland, Sandsend Ness, where there is a delightful nature trail in the old quarry pits. A special place offering something for everyone!
