Seahorse House Reviews

Deborah
What an amazing house and had everything you needed for an excellent stay. We were 6 friends coming to celebrate a 60th Birthday and we had a brilliant time. The welcome pack was much appreciated and we used the hot tub everyday especially after lots of good walks. The house is beautifully decorated and you felt at home straight away, so conveniently located in Whitby. Parking can be tricky but we used the scratch cards for two days and then parked in the pay and display carpark at StHildas with no issues. Would recommend this house for a stay in Whitby and will hopefully return soon.
Ruth
The accommodation was perfect. There was everything you could possibly need and more. It was beautifully furnished, spotlessly clean, warm and homely. The bedrooms and bathrooms were really good sizes and the beds were super comfy. It was just a couple of minutes walk into the heart of Whitby - a perfect location. We really enjoyed the hot tub and outdoor seating area too.
Simon
Fantastic house to stay in, had a great time and very comfortable. Owner is very friendly and helpful.
Peter
Excellent location, excellent house, well equipped, good size for large family. Would highly recommend.
Colette
Nicely presented, centrally located cottage, perfect for exploring all aspects of Whitby.
Lorna
Gorgeous spacious house, beautifully decorated and in a great location. Kitchen had everything we needed and welcome pack was great! Parking quite tricky, but was to be expected in busy holidays and being so central. Views from top floors amazing!
Martyn
Very clean and well equipped house. Brilliantly located for all amenities. Hot tub was the icing on the cake. One thing to be aware of, is parking is restricted, so peak season will be away from the property.
Norma
A lovely house that met all our needs. Location is great, just 3 minutes to local bars and pub for food or 5 minutes to the town. House is well equipped and the jacuzzi is lovely and hot. The house is beautifully presented.
Anthony
Lovely house, with everything you need to have a wonderful time.
