    “On arrival, there was a strange bottle left in the porch; I just left it where it was.”

    The cottage was cold and needed airing. The cottage was advertised as having a tumble dryer- there wasn't one - there was an old washer/dryer but the dryer functions had been blacked out by marker pen. There was also a random towel left in the washer. The cottage was also advertised as including fuel and advertised central heating and a heated towel rail.

    The cottage was cold and needed airing. The cottage was advertised as having a tumble dryer- there wasn't one - there was an old washer/dryer but the dryer functions had been blacked out by marker pen. There was also a random towel left in the washer. The cottage was also advertised as including fuel and advertised central heating and a heated towel rail. Neither was available unless you had the fire on as it uses a back boiler to heat the radiators; with only a starter pack, we could only heat the house for 2 days and without the radiators in the lounge, despite temperatures outside of 16c, it was freezing. Without a heated towel rail, the towels soon became damp smelling and constantly damp. Luckily there was an electric heater in the main bedroom although there was a strange constant dripping noise coming from the locked cupboard which we couldn't trace as there doesn't appear to be any pipes going into that room. The swing in the garden was filthy and didn't look like it had been cleaned since the winter. I gave it a good scrub with hot soapy water so we could use it, but I shouldn't have had to - I have before and after photos if you want them. The garden was pretty and secluded, although the lawn hadn't been mowed. The cottage was nicely located for the various seaside towns, good walks, the #12 coaster bus stops and the pub. The suggestion book was full, so couldn't add any suggestions, but I would replace the old back boiler with a new combi boiler in the bathroom cupboard which would negate the need for a water tank and having to use the immersion heater; it would also give on demand heating and hot water and would be likely cheaper to run. There should be a wok or larger frying pans, some items were not particularly clean. Some Sykes cottages we have stayed in have provided welcome baskets with tea/coffee/milk and biscuits or cakes - that would be nice, particularly in this price bracket. The cottage should sleep 4 with two bedrooms, but there is insufficient seating in the lounge for 4 and not much room for 2, tbh. The furniture is old and not very comfortable. Both the front and back door locks/handles need replacing and the outside light at the back door didn't work.

    Thank you for your feedback. The strange bottle in the porch is Hand Sanitizer and is labelled as so. There is a modern washer dryer in the kitchen, yes the dryer options have been blocked out due to the expense of running costs but we do NOT advertise having a dryer. The property is advertised as providing starter pack for the multi fuel burner but we leave plenty and as you said it lasted for 2 nights. As you suggested a combi boiler would provide the perfect solution for instant hot water and heat, however, as there is NO GAS mains to the village so this isn't an option. It is in the property description that the property is heated by multi fuel and a back burner. There are also electric radiators in the main bedroom and the kitchen. The 3 seater leather sofa and Leather Chesterfield chair were purchased last year. Property Owner

The property

Hunmanby 1.6 miles.

Nestled in the quaint village of Muston, just a short drive north from neighbouring Hunmanby in North Yorkshire, lies this charming, two-bedroom holiday home, 4 Hunmanby Street.

With roadside parking, an enclosed, tiered garden, and a collection of well-presented interiors, this delightful property welcomes a family of four or a group of sharing friends seeking a relaxing, self-catered escape near the North York Moors National Park.

Park up, and step into your lovely new home-from-home, where you will be greeted by an array of tastefully-laid out living spaces.

Get to work in the fully-equipped kitchen, home to every appliance you'll need to whip up a tasty, home-cooked meal, which can be savoured at the dining table or alfresco in the rear garden on warmer days.

When it's time to relax, retreat to the sitting room to enjoy a film on the Smart TV as you're kept nice and warm by the comforting embrace of a multi-fuel stove.

As day rolls into night, head for a refreshing shower on your way to hunkering down for a well-earned rest in either a plush king-size or bunk bedroom.

When you're ready the next day, head out to explore what your local area has to offer.

In Hunmanby, stock up on essentials at The Hunmanby Convenience Store before you settle down for a hearty pub lunch at The White Swan or the Horseshoe Inn.

For a full day out, make the short car journey east to nearby Filey, a bustling seaside town home to a wealth of exciting things to do and see, such as practising your golf swing at Filey Golf Club, getting up close and personal with exotic wildlife at Filey Bird Garden and Animal Park, embarking on a scenic walk along Filey Brigg, or even just sunbathing on the lush, golden sands of Filey Beach.
