The Salt Nook

Perfect location and great for a two night stay! Walkable with the sea view only one minute away

Great property, fantastic location and the weather was amazing!

We had a wonderful time in Whitby and would highly recommend this place.

Lovely peaceful place, nice and clean and tidy and close to the beach/all amenities.

Had a lovely stay at the salt nook in Whitby, we didn’t arrive until late on the Friday afternoon but we managed to get parked up pretty easily and close by. Location is really good, just a couple of minutes walk to the west cliff beach front and 10 mins to the town. <br/>The place itself is lovely, we did have a 4 month old baby with us so the steps down to the entrance were a little tricky with a pushchair but we managed- used the back door exit during our stay which was fine but could do with a little tidying.<br/>The interior itself was just what we needed, lovely bedroom and upstairs bathroom with a gorgeous bath. Would say the bed isn’t the comfiest we’ve slept in! <br/>Only issue we had was with the cleanliness of the shower in the downstairs toilet, could just do with a little extra TLC. We also didn’t have a hand towel or anything to stand on when getting out of the shower and there was no bin (necessary for girls). <br/>Overall we had a lovely time and would definitely stay again :)

We went to a wedding in Whitby in May this year and booked an apart “the Salt nook” through the company Host & Stay, we paid just shy of £365 for a three night mid week stay checking in on Wednesday evening and checking out on the Saturday morning. To say our stay was awful would be an understatement. We experienced an extremely unclean apartment despite it having apparently been cleaned the morning of our check in, we were unable to use any hot water throughout the entirety of our stay due to it being brown in colour, the small outdoor terrace at the front of the property was covered in moss and dirt and tiles were green and dirty and generally the overall finish to the property left a lot to be desired, there were marks on walls and large areas of chipped paint, just so far from what you expect of a “luxury apartment”. The final straw for us was having to check out of the property at 11pm the night before we were due to because of an active water leak from the ceiling in the hallway that was directly next to the electric box. While we were staying in the property we made many phone calls and sent many emails to guest services to make them aware of each of the things that I have listed above. I then emailed them on our return home to ask how we went about formerly complaining because you cannot find any complaints procedure or forms linked to their website. Despite the numerous issues we had with the property and how dirty it was, we were only offered a £50 refund, we went back and forth over email with Heather the manager of the guest services team who repeatedly failed to acknowledge the issues we had raised and even went as far as purposely trying to mislead us by giving knowingly false statements, one of which was regarding the brown hot water, Heather claimed it was a local issue with Yorkshire water, that it was out of their control and due to this they would not be able to increase the refund amount. We may well have left it here had I not contacted Yorkshire water myself and found out this was absolutely untrue. We ended up having to seek and take legal advice to get anywhere with this company who have only just, 6 1/2 weeks later, refunded us £200 of the £365 we paid. Unfortunately we are sure that we are not the first to experience issues with this company and we are even more sure that the initial £50 refund they offered us has been enough for other people to not follow through with their complaint, unfortunately for Host and Stay, we are not those people, we absolutely stand by the fact that if you book a “luxury apartment” you expect it to be luxurious and at the very least clean and tidy and you absolutely expect to be able to make use of the hot water. Genuinely we could have stayed in one of the guest houses in the same location for much less money and we have no doubt that we would have had access to better and certainly cleaner facilities. We aren’t unreasonable people, we understand that sometimes things go wrong but we will absolutely not stand for being lied to in order to excuse the issues we raised and to also get out of refunding us what we deserved. As a company Host and Stay are absolutely unreasonable, unwilling to accept any form of responsibility for the lies we have been told and for the inexcusable state of the “luxury property” we booked. To have to experience what we experienced and then to have to fight for 6 1/2 weeks to get not even a 55% refund is a joke. This is false advertising and terrible customer services at its finest. Anyway do yourselves a favour and steer well clear of this property and definitely the company. ??

A great location on a quiet street in easy walking distance into Whitby.<br/>The property was beautifully furnished and had everything we needed for our stay.<br/><br/>Nothing it was lovely!

Good location, clean, and as described. Disappointed that accidental damage insurance was demanded after the booking process was completed. Just waiting for my £250 deposit on the insurance to be repaid to me card. WiFi was very slow too.

Really nice place very spacious annd well decorated. It’s only 5 mins walk to Whitby beach and town with loads of cafes and bars. Only negative I would say was lack of cooking essentials such as salt and pepper, oil etc. these things aren’t essential but do make self catering that much easier. But I would definitely use this company again.

Excellent little apartment great location very homely hence we've stayed there four times now<br/><br/>Nothing to dislike

Highly recommend this place! Beautiful inside and in a great location. Excellent communication throughout. As Arnie once said, ‘I’ll be back!!’<br/>Slightly confused at the other reviews regarding the parking. Difficult to understand what some people expect in such a central location! There is a car park around the corner worst case…<br/>Thanks for a wonderful weekend!

Lovely apartment in a very good place near to all amenities. Very tastefully decorated. We enjoyed our stay. Felt very at home.

Dirty, rubbish left in bathroom bin, hair and dirt and mould in shower, hair on floors, food on kitchen surfaces.<br/>Hidden fees for cleaning but apartment was disgustingly dirty, ridiculous damage protection charge. All fees should be included in the already expensive price.<br/>Unhelpful communication, basically a charlatan management company would never ever use again even if you paid me.

Great location, cozy and quaint. Bring your own toiletries

Great location, lovely fireplace and comfy bed.<br/><br/>Hot water didn't last very long in shower.

Just what we needed. We'll definitely be back!

Great location, spotlessly clean. Good for a couple.<br/><br/>We booked because it was one of the few apartments with a bath - unfortunately, the bath water ran brown so it was unusable on both days we stayed. Disappointing.

Loved it, great accommodation in a perfect location

The bedroom and upstairs had a very nice relaxed homely feel and the heating warmed up very quickly. The kitchen was very well equipped and easy to use. Ideal location as short walk to everything. Would use the property again as the upkeep was immaculate.<br/><br/>Downstairs was not as warm and cosy as upstairs. We arrived after a 2.5 hour journey, unloaded the car then used the bathroom facilities, went outside to put the scratch card in the car for parking and within those 10 minutes there was a parking ticket on my car!

Excellent location. Spacious and cosy flat. Nice and warm. Big bed that was comfy enough. Nice TV on the wall with a lovely little fireplace downstairs.<br/>Some minor issues but nothing to worry about it. We had a great stay.

We had a lovely stay at the Salt Nook on our weekend away in Whitby. Location was fab, right near the whalebone arch and everywhere we wanted to go was well within walking distance. Absolutely no issues with parking, we managed to get a space right outside but might be harder in summer. <br/>The house was beautifully decorated, no unnecessary clutter and we felt right at home. Heating worked really well and very quickly! Sofa was very comfy but the bed could’ve been a bit better! <br/>Kitchen had everything we needed but S&P grinders hadn’t been refilled, no oil in cupboards and only a couple of tea bags and no sugar. Not necessary in self catered accom but it’s always much appreciated when they’re there! <br/>Had a fab time overall, thank you!

New to air b&b so was a bit cautious but it was amazing. Better than we thought! Really cosy at home feel. Location was even better than we thought, just around the corner. Just one problem about the colour of water coming from the taps but they have ensured me they are looking in to it so would definitely return. Really good value for the money which I love.

we have stayed at the place for 5 nights. the living room was beautifully decorated. The fireplace made us feel cosy and at home. The bedroom had a great size bed and had what it needed without any unnecessary cluter. Great idea of having 2 bathrooms. You can take a relaxing bath or jump in the shower, whatever you prefer. Quiet neighbourhood and the surrounding scenery were breathtaking. Great place to stay.

The location, the cosiness, how warm it was and the facilities.<br/><br/>Noise of the boiler below the bedroom.

Excellent holiday apartment for a couple of days. Well furnished and spacious.

Lovely apartment and nicely decorated. Very spacious. Comfortable bed.<br/><br/>This is not really a negative but there is no washing machine.

Great little place, easy check in and good communication

Everything<br/><br/>Could possibly do with a tv in the bedroom

Location was amazing.<br/><br/>Check in time was late.

The place was lovely. Very comfortable like home from home

We struck lucky with The Salt Nook. It is a beautiful apartment, very modern in a Georgian villa. Decorated to a very high standard, modern and very clean.<br/><br/>The parking system is something you need to get onto as soon as you arrive or you risk getting a ticket.

Parking was a bit of a nightmare as it was a really hot weekend so very little parking near the property (it’s permit parking but was full).<br/>But main issue was that the link in the guest guidebook took us to the abbey! When I called the ‘host’, confused, they pulled up the same map and started explaining to me where it was (and where I was) but the property was actually 10 minutes across town. External agency and has never seen the property. Use g. maps not the guidebook if you book.<br/>Actual house was beautiful, tastefully decorated and convenient layout, lovely big bath, well equipped etc. highly recommend. There are very few convenience shops in Whitby so take what you need for you’re stay.

Really lovely space. Very close to lots of what Whitby has to offer. West cliff location is close to a lot of parking options and the kitchen is fully stocked with lots of utensils etc to ensure you have all you need.

Parking at this flat was an absolute nightmare. Host provides a permit which is completely useless unless there are spaces, we couldn’t park within 10 minutes till day 3 of 4.<br/>This was my first with a business rather than a person and it fell a bit short imo. Used to having a welcome pack but not here. Two teabags, 2 uht milk, no sugar, coffee solid in jar and advertised coffee m/c with no pods which is less than I’m used to with air bnb. There were no cleaning products either to help keep the place clean, which is poor imo. <br/>The bedroom is at street level with no nets so had to have curtains closed during our stay for privacy. There are no oven gloves, you have to use the 1 tea towel which, if damp, will burn your hands. The kettle has a small leak when pouring which is frustrating. <br/>Whilst we enjoyed our stay and the location was great, I felt the issues above just took the shine off our break. I won’t book with a business again.

Lovely accommodation for the price. Well located and had everything we needed. Very tastefully decorated. The sofa was a little uncomfortable but that would be the only criticism. And some oven mitts please. Will definitely bear it in mind for our next visit to Whitby

I came for a relaxing trip with my partner and loved every second. The Salt Nook is beautifully decorated and extremely comfortable. The location is away from the busy tourist hotspots with all the attractions of Whitby within walking distance. Our host also included a helpful guidebook with everything we needed to know about the property and some great places to visit nearby. <br/>We had an amazing time on our trip and will definitely be booking with host & stay again.

Great stay at the Salt Nook! It was a lovely base to explore Whitby and we would recommend it to anyone.

The Salt Nook is as beautiful as it is on the photos, the interior is so beautifully decorated and well thought out. You can see the Abbey from the bedroom window and the neighbourhood felt safe and quiet. The host was very responsive to any questions or queries we had. There were a few small maintenance issues that we wrote to the host about and they said they would fix them on our check out day and were happy we had reported them. This was the shower head being too heavy, the bathroom door downstairs jamming as a little screw was hanging down and no running water in the bathroom sink upstairs. Other than these few issues the place was lovely, a short walk to the beach and we were blessed with beautiful weather :)

Such lovely accommodation, perfect what we needed for a few days.

We really enjoyed our stay at The Salt Nook. The location is brilliant for seeing the sites and it's in a lovely safe area near cafes. The accommodation is beautiful and feels luxurious. The kitchen had everything we needed and it was great to watch a film with the fire ob during heavy rain! We had lots of space and could definitely stay there for a week or more easily. It felt homely and I'd definitely return. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Such a lovely place, exactly as it looks on the pictures. Two issues. One was that the shower head didn’t stay upright at all so just had to hold it which wasn’t ideal, especially when I’ve seen a review from four months ago with the same issue. Second issue was that the wrong parking permit was issued which resulted in us getting a parking ticket. Hosts just dismissed it saying they weren’t liable, even though they issued a ticket for two days instead of three which we didn’t realise. We just trusted the statement that parking was free and permitted until 10am of departure, this wasn’t the case. It could have really easily been rectified but the hosts didn’t take any responsibility for it and blamed us. Such a shame as it’s such a lovely place, but falsely advertised.

This apartment was centrally located. It was really useful having scratch cards for parking.<br/><br/>There are a number of issues, Host & Stay are not cleaning this property effectively. There were no blinds in the bedroom which are an absolute must as you are so overlooked. The mattress needs changing. The property is damp which needs addressing. There were so many areas that had not been cleaned, this is really poor given the check in and out time, I can only assume there are not enough people to clean and they are not given enough time to clean.. the shower head dropped down constantly, annoying, so my husband did a makeshift holder.. as you can see by the attached photos this is not acceptable and needs sorting! it comes down to greediness by the property company.

We loved The Salt Nook. The feel of a boutique hotel but the convenience of having your own place! It’s beautifully decorated/designed and has a fantastic location near to the seafront and the centre of town. Highly recommend!

Great time to go very quiet for Whitby. Good location . I can imagine parking more difficult in high season.<br/>Accommodation was lovely , well decorated and very clean.<br/>Bedroom move . However not very private as breakfast room of b&b opposite looked straight at us so had to keep curtains closed to get ready in the mornings .<br/>Otherwise, really nice , lots of stairs !

The high quality finish and location<br/><br/>No washing machine

Cosy and clean which helped us onto a very enjoyable holiday.

The shower head was the only disappointment as it would not stay upright making showering awkward. <br/>The coffee machine had old coffee pods and coffee residue, left inside it. My partner was unhappy that there were only two fresh coffee pods available.

Lovely location. Apartment was exactly as described and very comfortable.

Lovely place to stay, felt like a home away from home. also great location, only minutes from the beach and a five minutes walk into the centre of whitby. <br/><br/>Would definitely recommend this place

Our second time at the Salt nook a d we loved it<br/><br/>just the bin area outside could be tidier.

Really enjoyable stay at the Salt Nook. Lovely bedroom with big windows and a nice table to have breakfast at whilst watching the birds fly around outside. Permit for parking provided which is useful but with the number of other holiday properties nearby it was difficult to get a space near by. Easier to park earlier on in the day when other people are leaving though.

The accommodation was well equipped and nicely styled. Really appreciated the provision of washing up liquid, coffee supplies etc, really nice touches<br/><br/>There was nothing that we didn't like, however, would appreciate a selection of books, games for wet days.

We had a really great stay at ‘Salt Nook’. The apartment is furnished beautifully and has everything you need. Check in was really easy and we loved the recommendations for restaurants and bars. Would definitely stay again.

We had a lovely stay. The property was modern and nicely decorated. We enjoyed spending time there. The location is convenient and it is easy to walk into Whitby. Parking is easy to find close to the property. Whenever we contacted Host and Stay they were quick to respond and give advice.

very nice flat

Home from home. Clean, comfortable and cosy - would recommend and stay here again!

Really enjoyed staying in this beautiful place. It felt welcoming from the minute you stepped in the door. Great location. Easy to park. Couldn’t fault the place. Thank you

Fantastic Air B&B. Couldn’t have asked for somewhere nicer to stay. <br/>Very peaceful with everything you need to have a great stay. <br/>Bath is amazing too! <br/>Very easy check in <br/>Location fantastic

The Salt Nook was just as described, beautiful decor and close to all amenities and the town.<br/>The only downfall was that we were missing one mug and the tea towel had mould on it and was stained, and the shower head was tricky to position and wouldn’t stay upright, which is why I gave it 4 stars not 5. <br/>Other than that we had a wonderful stay and would def recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay here! Located in a great place and had everything we needed. Would definitely book here again if we ever go back to Whitby - would recommend to others!!

We had a lovely few days stay at the Salt Nook! Really lovely accommodation which felt like a home away from home! The information provided by the host prior to our arrival was so helpful and helped us plan prior to getting there!

Our stay at the Salt Nook was excellent. It was a joy to return to the flat in the evening after a day exploring Whitby

Absolutely beautiful property. It’s been done out so well, lovely attention to detail! We loved the space so much. We were there with our baby so we were in a lot of the time and it was a home away from home. Thank you x

Lovely little place in a good location to explore whitby...modern, furnished well and comfortable. Nice having 2 bathrooms too. It would have been nice to have some extras for our stay such as tea, coffee, milk etc... and also the bed/pillows could have been a little more comfortable. Overall, this place is good value for money and I would highly recommend this place if you are thinking of visiting whitby!

Really great little flat within walking distance of all of Whitby

Gorgeous place and great for exploring Whitby. Would definitely stay here again!

Lovely little spot!

Lovely little AirBnb that is close to the beach, and a short walk to the town centre. Surround by lots of beautiful restaurants, friendly people and things to do. Street noise can often be heard through the bedroom however it was rare this happened but could be an issue if you’re a light sleeper. I wouldn’t recommend working out of this Airbnb as the wifi is not strong enough. Thanks for hosting!

Stayed here for 5 nights and cannot fault it at all. The Salt Nook is super clean, modern and cosy. Perfect location - will definitely be coming back!

We loved our mini break in Whitby and the Salt Nook was super cosy in the January weather! <br/>The accommodation was beautifully furnished and extremely clean and we felt very comfortable there.

Great stay here in Whitby. The accommodation was in a great location, very clean and had everything we needed. We would definitely stay again and recommend to friends/family.

Location was excellent, even managed to park right outside.<br/>Apartment was cosy and clean and had everything you needed for a long weekend<br/><br/>Sofa and bed weren't very comfortable

Perfect accommodation in a great location. Loved Whitby and this was a great base and good value to explore it further.

Very nice bedroom and great size for two people staying. Two bathrooms is a bonus too for the price. Good stay and easy to get into the property with a safe for the key.

Amazing location, close to the sea. Very close to all the Whitby attractions. Enjoyed my stay thoroughly!

Super cosy, perfectly clean and the ideal location. We stayed over Christmas and the added decorations made our stay more special! Thank you.

Definitely worth a stay at the Salt Nook, the interior design was fantastic, light and airy, well equiped. A stones throw away from the beach and town. The stay was perfect from beginning to end.

Great accommodation, spotlessly clean, well laid out and just as the description and photos showed.great location as its within walking distance of Whitby centre.<br/>Hosts were on hand and great communications.<br/>Would stay again

Modern and comfortable interior design and furniture. The design felt very well thought out and furniture felt new. Lovely area to explore - we had a nice time, even though it was the off-season during our visit. Thank you!

Amazing flat, really lovely and cosy. Also a great location. We walked into the town and across the bridge for food both nights in under 10 minutes. Honestly can’t fault anything to do with the property. Highly recommend.

Fantastic flat, quiet location within an easy walk to the sea and the town

This place was beautiful. Really well designed. Easy to find and access. The hosts were so helpful. Perfect stay to celebrate my 30th birthday. Would definitely recommend and will definitely stay again!

The Salt Nook is an absolute delight of a place. Perfectly positioned 2 mins from the sea front & Cleveland Way. So clean and everything you need for a long or short stay. Views of the Abbey from the window were fabulous when lit up during our stay.

lovely and cosy and great location<br/><br/>bed was a little uncomfortable

Great stay at The Salt Nook. Very clean and great location, only a 5 mins walk down to the centre of Whitby and just around the corner to great sea views and the jaw bones. Plenty of parking available nearby too, thanks to the zone parking scratchcard provided at the property.<br/>We was a little concerned by a couple of reviews about the noise from the apartment above. We heard nothing during our stay.<br/>We will return, thank you.

Everything was well appointed and the apartment was beautifully decorated, clean and comfortable.<br/><br/>The shower head did not stay upright which meant you had to hold it. My husband fashioned a temporary solution but it was the only thing that detracted from an excellent property.

very high quality<br/><br/>no make up mirror. needs a magnifying mirror on extending arm in main bathroom

Super location and we felt so comfortable during our stay! Plenty of room and it's beautifully decorated. There's alot of baskets around the place which are really handy for keeping some of your things organised without putting them out of sight. <br/>We walked everywhere in town because the flat was so well situated. The deep bath was very much appreciated after a 5 hour walk to Robin Hood Bay and back!

Lovely, clean apartment in an excellent location. Exceptionally comfortable bed and slept very well as was so quiet and the bedroom had blackout drapes.<br/>Really, really nice. Thank you ??

A perfect stay for us two, more kitchen amenities than expected and lovely decor/finish throughout. Good location for the beach/town/train station. Would definitely stay again

Lovely furniture and wonderful deep bathtub. Very loud upstairs neighbour keeping us up past midnight and up at 7am. So if you’re not an early riser I wouldn’t recommend - if we were told this previous to booking we wouldn’t have chosen The Salt Nook. Great location with lovely views of Whitby.

The location was excellent. The interior was lovely.<br/><br/>No privacy in bedroom whatsoever. Over looked by everyone. No blinds or net curtains/voils so had to have curtains closed all the time. Couldn’t leave windows open at night as not secure so was too hot. No windows to open downstairs. Back courtyard was filthy. The front entrance needed sweeping and windows very dirty. The apartment needed a good dust and areas hadn’t been cleaned for a while. We found a lot of body hair around the apartment also.

A brilliant apartment. We couldn't have been happier with our choice! A home away from home.

Lovely flat and in a great location to explore Whitby. Plenty of equipment in the kitchen to cook or lots of close by places to eat also. Nicely furnished and carefully thought about decorations. We throughly enjoyed our stay and would stay again.

A wonderful stay in Whitby, a perfectly equipped apartment in a great location!

The Salt Nook is a lovely apartment situated in a quiet part of town. The apartment is beautifully presented and is very well equipped. A lot of care and thought has been put in to making it a great place to stay. Check in and communication was great.

Good location and overall finish to the property

The Salt Nook is in a great loaction, great on street parking with parking paid for. The decor and finishings are great. Everything you could want for, for a short stay in Whitby.

Great apartment and location would highly recommend. We stayed for a week and enjoyed it thoroughly. Apartment has everything you need and check in/out was seamless with easy communication with hosts at all times.

The location was perfect, it was a 5 minute walk into the centre of whitby and close enough to all other amenities. <br/>The accommodation was set out beautifully and well thought out.<br/><br/>We found crisp under the glass table in the lounge area, i dont think the cleaner can have cleaned it properly.

Lovely apartment and very clean, situated in a great location. Would stay again !

Great property with brilliant facilities and within excellent walking distance of the beach and town. My partner and I loved our stay at the Salt Nook and we will definitely rebook the property when we visit Whitby again.

Great property, great location, well decorated and fitted out. Would highly recommend

Lovely well located apartment. Highly recommend

Lovely apartment.

Lovely stay at The Salt Nook. Everything was very clean and as described. The location is great and the parking card is useful though it can be hard to find a space when it's very busy. Online guide to the property was very useful and had some good recommendations for places to eat around the area.

Amazing place and designed so beautifully! The location is perfect and everything is in walking distance. They have scratch cards to park if you are driving, and we were able to park just in front of the property. I loved that you can see the Abbey from the bedroom and when you walk out the door! perfect in every way!

What a beautiful place! <br/>Amazing location, easy and free parking, spotlessly clean, so close to the sea. <br/>Great communication from the host.

Fab. Extremely clean and decorated in a modern but cosy style - everything there you'd need for a break away! Location is great - 5 minutes from the beach and 15 minutes from the town & harbour.. We would definitely book again if we're ever in Whitby again! Thanks

We had a great time here and the host recommendations for places to eat were excellent! Location and parking was ideal

Fantastic apartment we will definitely be staying again. Only downside is how easily you hear the noise from the apartment upstairs. We found it quite noisy especially when they went up and down their stairs. Otherwise; an amazing place to stay

The room was in a great location, very close to the beach, which is the main reason we booked this one! The house was much bigger than I expected, very clean and we loved the decor! Highly recommended!

Me and my partner had a really enjoyable stay here. Nicely decorated and clean. Really close to everything so would definitely recommend!

We absolutely loved our stay and will definitely be back. Would recommend to anyone looking for a place in Whitby. The house is gorgeous and the location is perfect.

A lovely apartment. Great location and beautifully decorated and equipped. We’ll certainly be back when we next visit the East Coast.

Great accommodation and location. Will definitely stay again

Modern, well decorated nicely furnished, clean apartment. Close to the sea and town centre.<br/>Comfortable bed too

Accomodation beautiful - clean and everything you needed. Lovely touch of tea coffee milk etc. Bed and bedding super comfy. Fabulous bath.<br/><br/>Parking but it is Whitby! Issue with permit but host and stay kindly rectified it straight away.

It was very clean, extremely comfortable, they’d thought of everything. Lovely quality finish. Great location.<br/><br/>Nothing
