"The first issue is on the description upon booking. It says car parking is free. This is misleading as its actually parking on the road, which is free (if there are spaces), and if not is it in a nearby car park which is £12 per day (24 hours). The other issue is the cleanliness of the property, mainly crockery, cutlery and cupboards. On a positive although the yard isn't the most appealing the positioning within the town is spot on. "

Galatea - Nr Whitby , Yorkshire

10/10 Excellent

"Meine Frau und ich waren für ein paar Tage in diesem tollen Ferienhaus. Das Ferienhaus liegt direkt neben einem Leuchtturm an einer steilen Küste. Auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite vom Leuchtturm befindet sich ein weiteres Ferienhaus, von dem man aber aufgrund der baulichen Trennung nichts mitbekommt.Das Haus war sauber und in der Küche warteten ein paar kleine Geschenke auf uns: Kaffee, Kekse, Brot und weiteres. Alles aus dem Ort Whitby und alles super lecker.Das Haus ist gut ausgestattet - wir haben in der Zeit dort nichts vermisst.Die Lage ist toll. Man kann direkt auf das Meer schauen, die Schiffe beobachten und mit etwas Glück sieht man dort dann sogar Delphine im Wasser.Vom Haus aus kann man direkt loswandern: nach Whitby oder Robin Hoods Bay. Beides sind richtig schöne Touren. Mit dem Auto ist man in wenigen Minuten in Whitby und von dort dann schnell in der Umgebung, die viele schöne Ausflugsziele bietet.Leider gibt es kein WiFi in dem Ferienhaus und der Handyempfang ist nicht sehr gut. Wir mussten in der Regel vor das Gatter am Anfang des Grundstücks gehen, um Empfang zu haben. Das ist einerseits etwas aufwändig für die Planung der Tagestouren aber andererseits auch entschleunigend.Der Leuchtturm ist übrigens noch in Betrieb und wird regelmäßig gewartet. Wir durften bei einer solchen Gelegenheit einmal ins Innere schauen. Toll."
