  Sterling House is a stunning holiday apartment.

  Overall the property is very light and airy and beautifully decorated. The kitchen was particularly well equipped which made for a very comfortable stay. We loved having a nice garden for BBQ's and eating our breakfast outside. Also, having the shops, beach and park all a short walk away really made the holiday for us.The older kids got to visit the village shops and park and explore by themselves which they loved. We dined in the Grosvenor Hotel which was very tasty and the portions were huge. We loved the Ghost Walk and would highly recommend this to any future guests. Our only disappointment was our day trips to Whitby where we encountered problems finding public toilets for our kids and Scarborough which seemed a little run down, with the shows and shops closed early. It's doesn't seem like the Scottish school holidays are catered for in these resorts. However, Robin Hoods Bay more than satisfied as a holiday destination and we would love to visit again.

  We had a great stay at Sterling House.

  It's just the right size for 2 families of four, comfortable and well equipped. Communications with the owner good. Robin Hoods Bay itself is a great place for a holiday - it's a beautiful little village to explore, the beach is a 10 minute walk, there are plenty of places to eat and drink, and it never felt too crowded even in August. Recommend pizza at the Cove, beers at the Smugglers, the lovely view from the Victoria beer garden and oysters and prosecco at the Bramblewick. We managed to get free on street parking outside the house fairly often in the late afternoon. Only small gripe is that the tv stations available were very limited and certainly not sky as advertised, although we weren't too bothered by this.

  Our second stay in Hillside and just as lovely as last year. Some of our highlights this year. Walk to Ravenscar Tearooms along the Cleveland Way and back via the seal colony & Beach. Whitby for pottering, gorgeous circular walk from Goathland & Alpamare Water Park. We had a great game of hide & seek in RHB & enjoyed both the Coastguard Museum & village museum. Sunday lunch at the Victoria Hotel was delicious. We also had great lunches at The Humble Pie in Whitby, Ravenscar Tearooms & The Hayburn Wyke Inn. The weather was glorious. We wished we'd brought our shorts. Reading our books with views of the village & the sea was very relaxing. We hope to return to RHB one day.

  What a lovely oasis of tranquility after a long days drive! Not only is it a beautiful and well designed house with everything we could possibly need provided in such a thoughtful way. In particular as a blind person ( Annie ) I found everything in the house really intuitive and easy to negotiate and remember and thank you very much for welcoming Lennie as my essential guide dog and not a pet-he will miss his free runs on the beach every morning. Would recommend the visit to Beck Hole for the smallest pub and sweet shop (and best beer cake!) on the moors. We also enjoyed Pickering market day on the Monday. We thank the Clark family for sharing their lovely home!

  We had such a lovely stay at Sterling House!

  The house is full of tasteful character and has everything you could need for a stay away from home. We were two families with young children and there was plenty of space. The owner accepted our very last minute booking and even gave us early checkin/late departure because we were only there two nights (all much appreciated!). The location is great - we went down to town and back several times and the kids really enjoyed digging and searching for fossils on the beach, plus fish and chips and ice cream in the village. The hill is a nice workout ;) Thanks for a great holiday!
