Host & Stay Arvostelua 

The lodge was great everything was there what we needed and a friendly welcome though a hut on the car park the only thing that I didn't like was the constant messages about Damage Deposits after paying for lodge and then a extra insurance cost that I paid because even though I know I'm a considerate quiet person travelling with my Family who are also grown careful people I was asking friends for advice before I arrived as stressed if they'd pay extra as the £250.00 deposit threat that if there's any damage was too much of a worry I was offered no inspection sheet on arrival I was taking pictures to cover myself and then more messages after I arrived and before I left more saying if you don't leave by 10 you will be fined and leave it tidy etc...took the fun away for me sorry ..having to pay £40 to relax and then still on edge .. frightened to use anything TBF ..

The perfect stay!
A beautiful house and garden on a lovely quiet street, just a short walk to sea cliff beach. The host left eye masks and bbqs to use which made the holiday even better! The house itself was very clean and just stunning. Thank you

The apartment was immaculate, clean, modern & stylish. Location was perfect too. We loved it & would definitely come back & recommend it to our friends & family. Thank you

Lovely cottage with fantastic outside space. All kitchen equipment top brands. Beds comfortable with good quality bed linen. Stunning views.
Two small suggestions. Wine glasses were not in keeping with other items. More like Sundae glasses. Put mirrors in bedrooms

Good communication and prompt responses. Details on their website were accurate and booking was easy.

Spacious house, great location and good communication from the host.

Great location be a well presented property. Will stay again.

The cottage was perfect for us. It smelled fresh the minute we opened the door (not always the case in dog friendly accommodation). Everything we could have wanted was there. The shared field was perfect for our cocker spaniel, she loved it & we were able to relax in the sunshine with a drink. The bed/bedding reminded me of a five star hotel & smelled amazing. If the cottage hadn’t been booked for the day we left we would have booked another night.

Good contact by Host and Stay to keep us appraised. Property comfortable, clean and convenient.

Lovely clean, comfortable cottage, with everything needed.
A very short walk and you are in the centre of Alnwick which was great.
It would have been nice to have been able to sit outside with the weather being so good, but everywhere, and I mean everywhere was covered in bird
poo, which was yukky. I would recommend the cleaner gives it a hose down whilst birds are nesting.

Hotel a bit dated but clean and comfortable and breakfast very good. Staff helpful but parking not the best although we did manage round the back. Only one night's stay but enjoyable

Easy to book and good communication throughout from booking to the time of our stay. Had a few questions about the apartment we booked that weren't on the page details and these were answered really quickly, within the day. The apartment was as described and photographed on the website.

Beautiful cottage. Immaculate. Both bedrooms were ensuite which was a bonus. Lovely and friendly host. Such a gorgeous place. Dotty's tearoom and the Cod and Lobster is definitely worth a visit.

The property is in a good location, clean and tidy with everything you need,lots of information about the local area,where to eat etc.A very short walk to the town,and nice and quiet, well worth a look.

Great stay, staff were very friendly,room was clean

Beautiful, immaculate property, well maintained, thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Excellent for 2 families to spend sometime together, for kids to enjoy within the property. Ofcourse there is a beach in few mins walking distance. Kitchen & bedrooms well furnished. There are couple of good grocery stores nearby. They also had some board games for kids. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience. Highly recommend to anyone.

The most comfortable beds ever nice location and plenty of room in the building and a enclosed garden which was ideal for my 2 dog's. Everything you needed was there my wife and myself went for a quiet week with the dogs and peaceful walking we will be going back sometime love the area

Spacious well equipped house
Great views, especially the higher floors
Comfortable beds
Spacious social areas

Although the cottage is lovely and quite comfortable, with very basic kitchen stuff and one thin J cloth for cleaning up, the parking was not ideal at all for us - as your car will not be outside the house, but will be out of sight. We arrived to find the outside bins completely overflowing, so couldn’t enjoy the small but adequate space, because of the deluge of flies in this hot weather - the outside table was also grubby and had not been wiped over - making the whole outside area an unpleasant place to be. There’s no microwave - a must for travellers to help make a quick meal after a long day out. Instead we had to use the hob and very dirty oven - again not pleasant. Almost all of the flat surfaces in the house, as well as the blinds, were covered in dust, making us feel not expected or very welcome. There was also remains of dog biscuits on the living room floor and crumbs on the coffee table.

We had a very poor experience with a Host & Stay property a couple of years ago, but wanted to give them another try on this trip. We’ll not be doing that again.
Shame really, as a bit of basic housekeeping would have made all the difference.
So, so long H&S.

A great place to stay and enjoy Whitby. Perfect location minutes from the attractions and eating places. The all important parking for a couple of cars, a must. Beds were comfy and clean. The rest of the accomodation was a home from home. When we found out Arundal was available again we did not hesitate.
