“Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sandsend View; pity about the weather.”

Accommodation was lovely, really comfortable and well equipped. Loved the views of the lashing rain and impressive waves from the window. Managed to park virtually outside which was a bonus, as was the parking permit supplied. Location is ideal for exploring Whitby and the surrounding area; also ideal for helping us to keep fit due to the inclines and the 199 steps. All worth it.

“The three of us thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sandsend.”

It was a blessing to find such lovely accommodation with such a superb sea view. The flat was very comfortable, squeaky clean and had all the equipment one might need for a self-catering break (all in very good condition). The public spaces in the building were also very well maintained and clean. The owner answered all queries swiftly. Our first trip to Whitby was a great success and we certainly hope to return both to the town and to Sandsend.

“An excellent stay with a lovely view.”

We will definitely be back should we visit Whitby again in the future.

Robert June 2024

“It's a lovely apartment.”

Well positioned in resort, lovely sea views. The only real down side is the very hard mattress on the double bed, which is not conducive to a good night sleep, unless you like a really hard mattress that is ( which we dont).

- Robert, June 2024

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that you found the mattress too firm. We have added a good quality mattress topper to the double bed in order to rectify this. Property Owner

Andrew April 2024

“Sandsend View is an awesome space.”

Felt like a brand new property but in the middle of the Royal Crescent. Lovely views over the bay. All the modern amenities that you need. Short walk into town. We loved it, didnt want to leave. I marked down the comfort as the mattress in the double room is very hard, we ended up buying a mattress topper from argos. However, we would still come again. You have to try this place!

- Andrew, April 2024

Thank you so much for your lovely comments. We're so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner
Leah March 2024

“I absolutely loved staying at Sandsend View.”

The location is incredible and thankfully there were lots of parking spaces directly outside the property. The apartment was super clean, it smells lovely and the welcome basket was such a nice touch. It’s nice having two bathrooms and it’s been decorated to such a high standard. I would stay at Sandsend View again without any hesitation.

- Leah, March 2024

Thank you for your lovely comments. We're so glad you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner

Ruth January 2024

“We stayed in the penthouse in November and wish we had chosen that apartment again.”

Double bed very uncomfortable mattress hard and had pain in my hip and leg afterwards,the smell in the bedroom was foisted and we actually thought it was the shower room but it was the bedroom furniture what the smell was coming from,apart from this,it was a lovely apartment.

- Ruth, January 2024

Thank you for your feedback concerning the bedroom. We can't understand this as we have not had feedback of this nature from any previous guests and we have not experienced this ourselves. We have asked our cleaner to look into it. We hope you had a lovely stay. Property Owner
Anne January 2024

“Super accommodation.”

Everything you could want was there. Kitchen equipment really well thought out. Great to have 2 bathrooms We only used the one double room but both bedrooms were lovely…and spacious. I found the mattress too hard, but my other half liked it…kept meaning to ask if there was a mattress topper! Very polite and helpful owners. Thanks and loved the welcome basket.

Thank you for your lovely comments. We're glad you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner

“I had a great stay with my mum in this lovely apartment in Whitby.”

The sea views were stunning. Clean and comfortable. Great location. Thank you!

Shirley September 2023

“Beautifully presented apartment.”

Everything was the best quality. Great location and views. Brilliant to get a parking permit. Lovely to be dog free. No doggy smells. We parked outside while I went to collect the permit. Then unloaded the car. Lift is a bonus. Thank you for the lovely welcome pack. The apartment is a credit to you. We would definitely stay again.

- Shirley, September 2023
Peter August 2023

“Excellent property in perfect location for all amenities.”

Joy July 2023

“The apartment was fantastic, could not fault it is beautiful but the location is not suitable for anyone with any mobility issues, my husband was only able to go down to the main town 3 times as he struggled to get back up to where the apartment is located, I would not have booked if I had known exactly where it was.”

Finding somewhere to park on the day of arrival was very stressful, drove round and round for ages then had to park across the road and struggled with luggage to get to apartment, paid £9 to stay for 24 hours as dare not move car again. When we did get a space we did not move car again all week in case we could not get parked again. When completing the permit be sure to do it correctly, my daughter missed something off, she realised when we were going up to the paddling pool and was on her way back to get a pen to complete, the traffic warden saw her and told her not to worry as long as she had scratched the correct dates so she left it, when we came back to the apartment we had got a parking ticket so had to pay £25, I was so angry that she had been assured it would be ok and then we got fined.

- Joy, July 2023

Thank you for your feedback. I am very glad to hear you enjoyed the apartment. I am sorry to hear that your husband struggled getting back from town to the apartment. When booking through Sykes cottages they have a reservations team who can assist you in finding the most suitable property. We would advise people to drop a member of the party off at the property to nip in and grab the parking permits while someone drives around the block so you can park safely to transport luggage to the property. Please contact the local council in relation to the fine if you were assured the car would be fine where it was. Again, thank you for taking the time to leave this feedback. Property Owner
Ruth July 2023

“The people who own the property keep it to a very high standard.”

Always a warm homely feeling when you get there . Fresh flowers and some goodies and milk in the fridge. We have been here before at this property and enjoyed it both times. Hopefully we will go again.

- Ruth, July 2023
Adrian July 2023

“Great two bed apartment with views over West Cliff , furnished to a high standard.”

No noise from other apartments , Nearest parking was £9 a day for 24 Hour Parking (summer season) , but was really close to the apartment . I'd recommend using the smart TV's Youtube channel to search for Videos of local Area . Walk with me Tim channel useful as well as the North Yorkshire wanderer. Apartment recommended

- Adrian, July 2023

Thank you for your lovely comments. We leave parking permits in the welcome pack and we're sorry if you didn't notice them. The permits are for on road parking which is on a first come first served basis. We have added this information to our property advert details. Property Owner
Deb June 2023

“Great, well equipped apartment.”

A short stroll to the beach and the town. Parking right outside with permit provided. Would definitely stay here again if visiting the area.

- Deb, June 2023
Gail June 2023

“We have just had a wonderful 5 day stay.”

The apartment is fitted to an extremely high standard and has fabulous views from the cliff top over the bay. Our welcome pack was very appreciated. The apartment had everything we required and it was a pleasure to stay there. I would certainly return. Thank you x

- Gail, June 2023
Anthony February 2023

“The accommodation was of a good standard however the lift to the flat was not working on arrival and the owners, who were aware of the problem, were unable to advise when it would be fixed.”

No work was undertaken during our stay so its not clear how much longer the lift will be out if service. Given the flat was on the third floor, we found the 57 steps on a tight stairwell challenging and it's fair to say it spoilt our stay. Taking luggage up and down on arrival and departure was extremely difficult and no offer of assistance was provided. We feel the owners should have made us aware of the problem with the lift prior to our arrival so we could discuss our options. Because of this, despite the property being of being of a good standard, we won't return.

- Anthony, February 2023

We are very sorry that the lift failure has had an impact on your stay. This is the first time there has been a problem with the lift and unfortunately we underestimated the time needed to complete the repair. We have today been advised that the lift will be back in operation within the next two weeks. Property Owner

“A really high standard quality apartment.”

Everything new and spotless, tastefully done and clean.

Carsten October 2022

“Very nice and spacious apartment.”

Wonderful sea view. Conveniant location, especially for Whitby Pavillon. The welcome pack is a nice treat and the parking scratch cards are very much appreciated. Wifi could do with a bit more range. Bandwith and speed no issue though. All in all highly recommended.

- Carsten, October 2022
Michael September 2022

“Lovely appartment,clean and comfortable.”

Nice and warm,didnt need to put heating on all week.Parking permits were great help.Would love to return in the future.

- Michael, September 2022
Amy August 2022

“The property was finished to a very high standard.”

It contained everything we needed for our stay. The coffee and food basket were a lovely surprise. The location was perfect for us. Beautiful views from the living room windows. So quiet too, we couldn’t hear any other guests. We parked in the nearby car park as permit parking was always full. But that didn’t affect our stay. We had a wonderful break.

- Amy, August 2022
Ian August 2022

“Very nice apartment.”

Very clean and the welcome pack was a nice touch. Perhaps a bit pricey for a four night stay though.

- Ian, August 2022
James August 2022

“Property is in fantastic order.”

Everything we might have needed was provided. Views are beautiful,a very restful place. Very thoughtful welcome pack which we thoroughly enjoyed. We expected parking might be an issue with it being regatta weekend, but not so. The parking permits are key. We are frequent Whitby visitors and will definitely return (if available!) Just a thought, some coat hooks in the hall might be useful in winter.

- James, August 2022
Tracy July 2022

Everything we needed, and more. Fantastic apartment , stunning views, perfect location. Thanks for the parking scratch cards, as we stayed for a week, they made parking a little less stressful. Hopefully, we will be able to visit again.
