Superb stay. They catered for every one of our needs. From appliances to games for the kids. I have 3 childcare all with different interests so the games kept them busy. Would highly recommend. And would stay again. Thank you very much.

Absolutely gorgeous home, the owner was lovely and friendly and went the extra mile to ensure our stay was extra lovely. When we walked in we couldn’t believe have pristine it was from top to bottom! It had everything we needed for a family stay, we took all sorts but we didn’t need most of it as the kitchen was so well equipped. There was no washer or dryer which wasn’t a problem for us as we took plenty of clothes etc but it’s something to note so you’re prepared. There were loads of books and games for both adults and children. A super handy understairs cupboard and smart tvs in lounge & 2 of the bedrooms. Our bed was super comfy and the full place was just so cosy and it has a nice big fridge freezer. The hot tub is lovely too with led lights and shelter. Neighbours were friendly and we would 100% stay again. Thank you so much for having us! :)

Great house, very well equipped, like a home from home but doesn’t feel cluttered. Very comfortable, clean, nice decor. Children loved the hot tub!

GuestAirbnbAug 2025

We loved our couple of days at Salt Rock retreat. The home has everything you could need and more. My son loved the games and we thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub. Great location, only 10 minutes from the beach. We'll be back!

Great stay visiting family , this place has all you need and more 😊 Positive: Perfect location 😊, well equipped 😊, lovely hot tub 😊, very clean 😊 Negative: It would have been great to have a shaver plug in bathroom so we keep our toothbrushes charged .

Dreadful place. Looked great but once you see the dirt and cobwebs you cant unsee it. The shouting and swearing from what i can only imagine were cocaine fuelled neighbours was not just annoying but scary, especially with children. To add to this the host accused us of being too loud. On top of this smaller issues include one bed being a small double, not double as advertised, dishwasher was broken, sink didnt hold water and my daughter stood on an old shampoo lid which was on the bathroom floor on arrival. Wouldn't stay here again if i was paid. Avoid if you want to relax!!!

Wonderful place in a beautiful part of the world. Cleaveland way just up the road and Skeltern and Saltburn very close. Lovely walking nearby made even better knowing you’re coming back to a lovely hot tub and well appointed house. We will be back. Would highly recommended. Great communication and info for the house too.

We stayed here for my birthday and wow what a beautiful place, there was games and everything and more that you could need. It felt so homely and was perfect for us. We went down to the local pub also and the bar staff were so friendly, we may of spent longer than in there than anticipated… The beach was only a 15 minute drive also and loads of shops 10 min drive. Everywhere was spotlessly clean and bonus points for the hot tub. Thanks for having us :)

We booked this house for a trip away for someone’s birthday and it was perfect. The house looked exactly like the photographs and was lovely and clean, including the hot tub. The hosts were very friendly and provided you with all of the information required beforehand. There are beaches and restaurants a short drive away; however, the house has great utensil if you wish to stay in and cook. Would definitely recommend and would stay here again!

Dale's place was perfect for myself and three girlfriends. The house was extremely homely, with everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped, the lounge area was roomy with plenty of seating, and the bedrooms were all decent sized with large comfortable beds. The decor throughout the property was beautiful, bed linen was pristine and everywhere was absolutely spotless. We made use of the hot tub, which was perfectly private. I cannot recommend this property enough! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

My partner and I love a hot tub stay! So it’s fair to say we’ve been to many… this stay outdone all our expectations by far! If you have children, I couldn’t recommend anywhere better! This stay is a house with lots of room! Well equipped kitchen, lounge and three bedrooms, lovely balcony with outdoor sheltered hot tub! They also had a travel cot, high chair and a selection of adult and kids games! We loved our time here and will definitely be back!

We had a lovely stay! The house had everything we needed and was spotlessly clean and tidy. There was a small issue with the Wi-Fi, but we contacted the owners, who were very helpful, and it was fixed by the following morning. The house was perfect for our toddler, and the location was ideal too. We would definitely recommend staying here! Thanks again for a wonderful stay

GuestAirbnbSep 2026

The house was clean and spotless, the photos and descriptions matched the property. The hot tub was really nice and private, local cafes and beach are all walkable and worth the journey. Not to far to explore other seaside towns like Whitby. Would recommend this place for the perfect home away from home escape.

JemmaBooking.comSep 2026

Lots to do in the local area, whether your a couple, small group or family. Property is in a great location for Saltburn Positive: Lovely house with everything you could need. Negative: We felt the check in time was a little late and check out time a little early but other than that it was wonderful

GuestAirbnbSep 2026

Me, my wife and 3 kids really enjoyed our stay here. Kids felt right at home and the hot tub was a brilliant touch to top it off. Plenty of board games and WiFi made the kids really happy. Would highly recommend. Host was brilliant always checking in to make us feel very welcome.

GuestAirbnbAug 2026

Hats off to the award winning photography. The reality of the place was night and day compared to the pictures. We were hoping for a few nights of luxury after a few nights in a fairly small place and when we arrived we actually thought can we go back to where we just left. Genuinely the only thing luxury about this place (apart from the bedding) is when you compare it to the houses next door to it. It's a mid terrace and both houses next door look rough so there's no curb appeal. First Airbnb in years without a welcome pack (no liner in the bathroom bin OR milk in the fridge!). Bearing in mind this is a 6-birth place the hot tub is marginally bigger than a bath tub. I'm genuinely shocked this place has nearly 5 stars. I liked the fact that the kitchen was well stocked with utensils and herbs but this didn't make up for the disappointment of the place. The place needs a deep clean top to bottom and personally I think it's overpriced. We stayed as a family of 4. Not a group of 6.

GuestAirbnbAug 2026

Lovely Airbnb - very clean and had everything we needed. On street parking available, 10 min drive into Saltburn and half an hour away from Whitby!

GuestAirbnbAug 2026

Clean & tidy with well equipped kitchen. Helpful baby related items, plenty of board games and nice furniture. The hot tub was lovely and easy to use.

MaryBooking.comAug 2026

Positive: Easy access instructions, property well prepared and very well equipped. Clean and comfortable throughout. Hot tub complimented rest and relaxation Negative: Outlook on neighbours back yard but that's not really something the hosts can do anything about

GuestAirbnbAug 2026

Had a fantastic stay with my family as part of my big birthday celebrations. We all enjoyed the hot tub. The cottage was very well equipped. Only negative aspect (we knew in advance) there was 5 of us, all female, only one toilet and the beds were all doubles.

GuestAirbnbJul 2026

Just a lovely stay. Beautifully furnished home. Thank you.

GuestAirbnbJul 2026

Great place to stay - board games were super fun

GuestAirbnbJul 2026

Lovely stay, and the hot tub was such a good addition. We didn’t leave the place but there are some places around the area to sightsee. Definitely recommend.

GuestAirbnbJul 2026

The property was spotless, everything cleaned to a high standard and nothing out of place. There was everything we needed for a small family weekend away, all utensils stocked in the kitchen and towels in every bedroom. The facilities are amazing, and anything you would ever need is there. The bedrooms are a great size, the living room is great and so is the kitchen and dining area. There are lots of board games to keep you entertained and all the TVs are smart TVs. The beach is only a 10 minute drive. Would 100% stay in this property again and would use this host. So friendly, great communication and great service. Thank you for a lovely stay!

GuestAirbnbApr 2026

Great property and within driving distance of the beach, easy to access and simple clear instructions, modern and beautifully presented with lots of facilities.

DonnaBooking.comApr 2026

Positive: Everything was provided that you'd need. It was clean, spacious. The hot tub was lovely. Negative: Nit picking maybe, but it would have been nice to have a set of kitchen scales to make cooking easier.

GuestAirbnbApr 2026

Nice place for a few days exploring with family, good location in easy reach of numerous walks and days out. Only downside was this is a residential street with older neighbours, on arrival we were made to feel awkward when unpacking our vehicle and where greeted by a neighbour asking if we would please not make any noise, they hate the fact the house is a Airbnb, we did have a good time but couldn’t really relax properly after that.

GuestAirbnbApr 2026

We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful home. It was incredibly cosy and well-maintained, making it easy to relax from the moment we arrived. The jacuzzi was a real highlight and added an extra touch of luxury to our stay. We would definitely recommend this place to others and wouldn’t hesitate to book again if we’re back in the area.

GuestAirbnbMar 2026

Really beautiful Airbnb with lots of amenities. The place was clean and well equipped. The host was responsive and checked in with us frequently in the run up to our stay. We especially loved the hot tub. We would definitely recommend! And will be visiting again. Thank you

We had a lovely weekend away, the house itself was immaculate, perfect for what we needed and beautifully decorated. The house had all the equipment we could need and the board games were a lovely addition. TV had everything included such as Netflix and YouTube. Bedrooms were lovely and very comfy. The hot tub was great! Host was very responsive and helpful.

GuestAirbnbNov 2025

Lovely cosy place. immaculate inside. great hot tub.

JoanneBooking.comOct 2025

Positive: Really well fitted out Negative: The thermostat was missing from where the information said it was, as we just need to quickly blast some heat though - it’s upstairs on the wall on the landing :)

JulieVrboSep 2025

Property very well maintained, and had everything we could need. Very clean.

GuestAirbnbSep 2025

Airbnb was lovely and looked exactly like the photos, also very clean. Great facilities, kitchen is stocked with all utensils, plates etc. also lots of games/ books provided. Hot tub and outdoor area was very nice and private. Nice views from the back of the house. Only downside is that neighbours would play music outside and had quite an unsightly garden (though one of the neighbours did come out and say if music was too loud to just let them know and they would turn it down), he seemed nice, just something to keep in mind. Dishwasher was not working where we stayed, but this wasn’t a big issue to us. Overall, we had a lovely stay.

GuestAirbnbAug 2025

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the home. It was very lovely and clean. The added extras made it a superb stay. We managed to park outside the house everyday, no issues with parking. The neighbour we did see was very friendly. It was listed with no WiFi but there was one available. The area was also good for exploring. The owners were very friendly and responsive. Thank you!

GuestAirbnbJul 2025

Great house with great views out the back. It was exactly what we needed
