Holmedene

Great location, pub next door is good for food and quiet so no disturbance.<br/>Very clean overall and warm. No wood provider for log burner which would have been nice in the autumn/winter.<br/><br/>Disappointed that the £500 deposit is refunded only at £485 as there is an admin charge! No breakages should be a full refund and all costs should be included in the price you pay to rent.<br/>Fridge door holder broken already on arrival and it cost us a pint of milk - but I don’t get a refund of that or an admin charge! <br/>Parking is awkward - instructions say don’t park in the path but neighbours asked us to do just that to free up more space for them to get in and out.<br/>As others found -the cooker hood is quite dangerous if you are taller than 5ft plus it was dirty and dusty on top.

All good<br/><br/>All good

The property was lovely. Perfect for a relaxing holiday<br/>Peaceful location <br/>Comfortable beds<br/><br/>Wasn't able to turn on the oven on and the instruction manual wasn't where it should have <br/>The property has a log burner but no logs

The house was a good size and a good location for us. Although as with all the reviews I read, it was quite dirty. I needed some attention.<br/>Dust and cobwebs, everywhere marks and smears etc dirty windows

Beautiful family accommodation <br/>Very comfortable, we all enjoyed our stay <br/>The play station was a bonus for the boys.

Good location easy parking house well equipped, towels and bedding good.<br/>On busy road noisy, beds very soft not a good sleep for me but that’s just my preference, bit dusty in en-suite bathroom corners and cobwebs throughout property not cleared.

The location was ideal. The washing machine and clothes line were a good addition. Beds were clean and comfortable. Parking spaces were always available. 2 sitting rooms.<br/><br/>The property wasn’t very clean, especially given there is a £100 cleaning fee on top of the price quoted. There were cobwebs everywhere, the cutlery, glasses etc weren’t clean. There was no washing up liquid in the kitchen, no towel or soap in the downstairs toilet, the only tea towel in the kitchen was marked and had holes in. The extractor fan is dangerous and 3 members of our party hit their head on it more than once! There was no kitchen roll provided and only 3 toilet rolls for 6 people to last 4 days. Again given there is a £50 service charge I would expect these things to be provided for the duration of the stay (which I am sure was the response to a question on booking.com that enough of both would be provided for the duration of the stay) There are no locks on any doors, there should at least be locks on the downstairs toilet door and the main bathroom door! The dining table is too big and heavy for where it is situated. If someone is sat on the 2 chairs side by side access to the kitchen is blocked. Sash windows in the bunk bed room did not appear to lock. Open and half full bottles of wine and soda had been left in one of the kitchen cupboards along with an empty sanitary towel wrapper in one of the bedroom draws (front bedroom on the right at the top of the stairs, second draw down to the left of the bed)

Lovely place to stay.

Just had a wonderful family weekend away at this property. It is exactly as it is described, clean and spacious with brilliant instructions from the owners on how to access the house. The pub next door is superb for a few drinks on an evening!!

Wow what a house. Went above and beyond our expectations. If your looking to stay in the area don't waste time looking for anywhere else. Stayed here with my family and can honestly say we didn't want to leave. Such a luxurious experience and at a fraction of the price. Everything has been well and truly thought out to make this a home away from home would defiantly stay again.

Holmdene is a nice property, with plenty of space for the seven in our party in a useful village location close to the coast. The place is well-appointed and comfortable.<br/>Our stay was marred by an issue with the hot water - a lack of, initially, that was fortunately rectified once the owners were made aware of the situation. Unfortunately, the shower in the main bathroom was not adjustable and stuck on scorching hot - this was flagged to the managing agent on the first morning but wasn’t seen to - we were advised that, as the shower in the en-suite was working - we’d be okay with that. This was far from ideal for a large group of three generations, piling into grandparents bathroom through their room. Not a huge deal, but we booked on the basis of the facilities advertised so the fob-off from Host and Stay (the managing agent) with their faux-empathetic responses did irritate.<br/>Also, no recycling provision and an awkward dining table location further impacted our enjoyment of the stay.

Great property, perfect for family holidays. the property was very comfortable and had everything we needed to be comfortable.

An excellent location and a really lovely property. We had oldies, middle-aged and teenagers - all loved it!

Lovely house, Property was clean and well equipped, furniture was very comfortable.<br/>Hosts kept in contact and were very responsive.<br/>Good location for trips to Scarborough, Filey, Bridlington.

Lovely house, will definitely return

Holmedene was perfect for a multi family trip - it was the first time we’d taken our small baby away and the house suited our needs perfectly. We particularly liked the open plan kitchen and living area which made cooking nice and sociable (there is a separate living room too should anyone want to watch tv in peace!) Very clean, and well located - lovely area to explore around the house. Would recommend going to the pub next door - great pub and landlady was extremely friendly.

We had to complain to Host & Stay regarding Holmedene in Muston near Filey. the cleaning condition which we were charged £125-! Very disappointed with this house. There were cobwebs all around the house we have pictures of proof, wooden blinds not dusted in weeks which we took a video of one set, 2 glass lamp shades on landing covered in dust must be months of dust! a marked mattress protector in master disgusting to know we slept on it! master en-suite shower curtain all mouldy needs washing on a hot wash or a new one buying, (I’m sure one of the other guest’s reported this online few weeks ago, yes we found out the review from June 2023, along with a reply from Host & Stay, we took pics of shower curtain. part used food left in the freezer. a babies dummy left in master bedroom wardrobe, a torch left on the window sill from last guests. Damaged heat marked dining table. Also the condition of plaster walls marked & need painting in all rooms. Skirting boards all marked around the house. then marked / chipped from door handles/ door hangers in few rooms, no soundproof in the whole house so if you need to make a call while there or are light sleepers this isn’t the house for you. There’s a whirlpool/spa bath in the main bathroom but doesn’t work. There’s only enough water for a 3/4 full bath and the rest of our family had cold showers even though we put the water on for extra hour, ( another guest mentioned this in a review few weeks/months ago & Host & Stay left a message.) Then the following day the shower was scolding & the whole family had to use the master bedroom en-suite, which isn’t good enough. The resident neighbours are very noisy and sounded like a football match had been there all night & next day. There was a damaged freezer box, the fridge bottle shelf could not be used hanging off which we took pictures. The office chair was in a dreadful condition looks like an animal has clawed it for ages, I’m surprised they left it in the house, we have pictures. Marked oven trays, 3 marked pans we have proof. No logs left as a starter pack. No card or gift welcome basket, only 1 tea towel left & site mentions 2. Only one bin bag, 2 dishwasher tablets. In the past houses we have booked we have been left lots of lovely things in a welcome back inc chocolates, wine, food items & sweets for our child but not here. No blue bin for recycling and a passer-by offered to take them with her after we asked where it might be located. We were celebrating 2 birthdays and not able to have a later checkout even if we paid more. Only one request was to have an extra blanket because of health reasons gets cold & this not even given. Located near Filey & Hunmanby. The house could do with a bedroom chair in each room, along with a dressing table in each room. Size of the house was ideal for a family of 5. The beds were comfortable. But the cleaning staff certainly aren’t doing their job, we had to clean the kitchen and bathrooms before use! Waiting to hear back from the letting company Host & Stay since we complained. The most important thing the owners of any holiday home is to offer a clean house, this isn’t too much to ask. Date of experience: 15- 17 September 2023

House was good for a large family.<br/>Cleaning was disappointing. Fingers marks on glass staircase, dusty on top of the beds, fridge shelf dirty.<br/>Couldnt get tv in main bedroom to work. <br/>Matresses in king room uncomfortable. <br/>Good quiet location.

Lots of space and really good sized bedrooms for all the teenagers. PS4 was an added bonus! Next door to a very friendly local pub. Lovely village just a short drive from Filey.

Not enough hot water. Kept having to boost hot water cylinder. For the amount of people that can stay at this property, hot water becomes an issue. Everything else was spot on.

Everything! From the communication leading up to the trip and throughout. The property was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed as a family. The attention to detail from the hosts is top level.<br/><br/>Only issue was having to turn the boiler on for the baths and showers as the warm water didn't seem to last for too long.

A fantastic property, spacious and well-laid out. The kitchen was extremely well-equipped. The communication was excellent, quick and responsive. Woukd definitely stay again.

Great place, family loved the whole trip. It was so clean and plenty of space for all of us. Location was great plenty to do in surrounding areas. Would 100% stay here again. <br/>Only comment would be for more cloths, tea towels and dishwasher tablets as we had to go and purchase these.

A very warm and welcoming home. 8 of us stayed in this house comfortably and still had enough space to spread out. A beautiful location with a variety of fun activities and close by spots for walking and adventuring. Would highly recommend to those wishing to enjoy the Filey Bay and surrounding areas

Lovely house, great for families. Good access to Filey and Scarborough. Comfy beds, super clean and VERY well equipped. Actual sharp knives and lots of kitchen utensils. Had a great family holiday.

We had a great time at Holmedene, the place was very spacious and perfect for 7 adults, one child and a baby. Beds were very comfy and we had everything we needed in the kitchen. The nice shampoo and conditioner in the bathrooms was a great touch. The dining area was spacious as well, although three of the chairs might need an upholstery refresh. The location is very convenient for visiting Filey and Bempton Cliffs. While you need to pay £25 extra on top of the list price for damage insurance, the price is still very competitive for the area, the quality and the size of the property. We loved the decorations on the wall and the paintings. We had a small issue with the hot water as it was not enough for all of us to take a shower because pressure was low in the boiler. However the Host & Stay Team responded quickly and managed to give us instructions on how to fix the issue so we could wash the salt out after the beach. Overall we loved our time at Holmedene and would happily be back.

Very spacious for all of us , 6 adults and 2 children

Lovely property, great size and very well equipped. <br/>Just a shame no bbq for the courtyard. <br/>Great location. Will be booking again :)<br/><br/>Shower curtain in the en-suite is mouldy and could do with been replaced.

lovely accommodation. lots of little extras at the home. only criticism could make more outside area better seating and maybe a bbq

Great place to stay, fantastic location well worth the visit. <br/>However if you are booking this stay with air bnb? Please be aware there is a damage deposit to pay to the host after you’ve paid off the balance. This payment proves very difficult to make via superhog.

It was a great holiday house. Plenty of space and clean.

Photos don’t do the size of the house justice. Great house with everything we needed. Great for a large family with children. En-suite bathroom and additional downstairs toilet a bonus. Extra snug room with PlayStation was great for grandchildren. Beds comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed. Lovely quiet location not too far to travel to coast. Would stay again. Communication with Airbandb great.

Really nice place, kitted out beyond my expectations. Warm, clean,modernised. Muston is about 1.5 miles from Filey so well located and very accessible. Only think to watch when booking is a supplemental charge for damage insurance which comes after the booking. Not earth shattering but created an annoyance straight after paying what I thought was the full balance.

TODO EXCELENTE!!!

Great base for a family holiday in the area. Right next to a really good, friendly pub with good homemade bar meals. Lovely village location and the house is well kitted out for families, clean and comfortable with all mod cons. Plenty of room and overall really good experience.

Great place, loads of space!

Lovely house with a great kitchen and living space. Bedrooms exactly as described and very clean.

great location house was perfect would definitely recommend will be back soon

We took a winters break as a family with our children and their friends and thoroughly enjoyed our break , quality furnishings and peaceful location we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The house was stunning and we loved it. Really spotlessly clean and well equipped… couldn’t fault it!

BEWARE Having left the property in a clean and tidy state we had to wait 2 weeks (14 days) for our security deposit to be refunded as this is their standard policy. Just what you need in this current economic climate, a company that keeps your money for no reason other than to profit further whilst making you struggle financially for weeks after you check out!! We wont be using this company again.

Easy to access and great location. Lovely and clean house with all the amenities you would expect in your own home. Plenty of space with 2 living areas and lots of crockery/cutlery etc.

We had a lovely stay, the house had everything we needed and it was so well located to get to the coastal towns we wants to visit. The village is quiet and friendly. We will definitely be back again!

This was beautiful accommodation, even more spacious and generous than the photos can show! PERFECT for a holiday with a large family or mixed age groups, especially with separate sitting room. <br/><br/>The bathrooms and kitchen are modern and with every appliance you could wish for. Cooking was a dream and the laundry/drying facilities are great. The beds were clean, comfortable and the cotton sheets have prompted me to order some, luxury!<br/><br/>The small courtyard garden is a sun trap and we spent a lot of time there eating and drinking wine! <br/><br/>Nobody could be disappointed with a stay here! :)

Very spacious, fit 8 people easily, comfortable. Equipped with everything we needed. Good location close to the coast.

Very well kept spacious property. Would highly recommend a stay.<br/>A great base for all areas.

Really lovely property in a small village location. Spacious and modern. Host was very helpful throughout stay. Short drive to Filey which was a fab beach for our young children. Would recommend for families.

Great house, plenty of space! Nice and close to Filey. Great communication and information!

This place is great, the pictures don't really do it justice. It's a lot bigger in reality than it seems on the pics. Loads of room, good lay out, everything you need is available. Location is great and the pub next door is a bonus, they were lovely and fitted us in for dinner when our asda delivery was delayed.<br/><br/>Couldn't recommend this place highly enough.

Looked too good to be true, but was as described. Good size, clean, great space enough for everyone to do their own thing or come together.

Lovely house, just as described. Everything you need. Very comfy beds. Close to Filey and Whitby. May is a great time to go for puffin spotting at Bempton cliffs!

The location close to the pub was ideal. The pub is a quaint quiet place that sells excellent pub grub.<br/>There was parking for our cars. <br/>Seven of us stayed for two nights it was very good.<br/><br/>The downstairs is open plan. Quite a lot of the noise generated down stairs is transmitted upstairs to the bedrooms.

A super house, very clean and modern, perfectly equipped with everything you need for a cosy stay. Would highly recommend staying there, beautiful little village and not too far into Filey

Gorgeous place with everything you need for a family break - would definitely recommend!

Fantastic place. Spotlessly clean and it has everything you could possibly need. Pictures don’t do it justice. Ample room for two families. <br/><br/>Would 100% recommend. Thank you!

We went for a family Christmas and had a brilliant time. The house was immaculate and well presented, we had everything we needed. Enough space so we didn't feel on top of each other. Would definitely<br/>recommend and would gladly go again if we were in the area.
