What our customers say about their holidays

• Clare - Verified booking

  The house itself is lovely and generally well equipped.

  The kitchen had everything we could’ve possibly needed. One small but very useful addition to the property would be a clothes airer - the weather was so bad we couldn’t hang washing on the line. Well situated for the Mere and the town and only a ten minute walk to the seafront. A lovely welcome pack was provided and very much appreciated (great to have a cup of tea after a long drive and not even need to unpack) and it was nice to have the bird feeders in the garden that had obviously been filled before we arrived. We loved watching the sparrows have their breakfast whilst we had ours. The only disappointing thing (and it’s quite a big thing) is that there is no off-street parking. The listing suggests that this is available and it was definitely one of my criteria when looking for a holiday rental. I have an autistic son and off-street parking makes it safer for him and easier for me. We managed the situation ok but I really think this amenity needs to be removed from the listing - we were able to pull up behind the house to unload but then had to find on street parking and with double yellow lines in front of the property it meant trying to find a space in a side street, often a few minutes walk from the property.

  Lovely, spacious holiday house, enormous garden, well equipped kitchen (2 fridge freezers was a real bonus), generous welcome pack, parking for at least 4 cars, very clean, ok Wi-Fi, only one tv but that was fine for us!

  Torches thoughtfully provided in every bedroom and hallway nightlights for late night loo visits. Good location only 25 minutes walk from the lovely sandy beach (although parking was free at beach car park!), great fish and chips just 10 minutes walk away. The owner was very helpful answering all our queries promptly and clearly. Very good information folder. Could do with soft close on kitchen cupboard doors. Larger bath towels for the adults would have been appreciated! (maybe a larger bed in the huge master bedroom too?) Having only one loo upstairs was a wee problem although having two baths and showers was good. We were disappointed that the table could not comfortably seat the 8 in our party… maybe the dining area needs to be reinstated? The owner was upfront and honest about this when we inquired. Because the house is unmodernised there is huge reliance on multi plugs in most rooms….. and we would say that the open plan staircase makes the house a tad unsuitable for some people. Overall it was a great holiday house for the 3 generations in our party. We hope our feedback is helpful & constructive.

  Excellent week in Hornsea.

  Elizabeth House was located perfectly. spotlessly clean on arrival, fresh flowers in all the rooms and a generous welcome pack greeted us. The rooms were a good size and had everything we could possibly want or think of. Free parking on the side street and having taken 2 cars we never struggled to park up. We were able to reverse up a small rear drive to unpack. The area was perfect for exploring - 2 local parks (with playgrounds)for early morning dog walks. 15 minutes stiroll through the town to the sea. Excellent variety of interesting shops. The sea front was clean and dog friendly to the right hand side. 3 pubs and an excellent war bar on the doorstep. The Italian was great as was Mas Indian. The Mere was beautiful and we did the 10k walk around it. We explored and would recommend Spurn head ( no dogs) and Flambourgh head . The fish & chips at the lighthouse in flambourgh village were amazing, though Lilys in the town were also very good. A super week , fabulous house, friendly helpful owners - highly recommend

  What did we enjoy most?

  So hard to say! The house was gorgeous; huge rooms, spotlessly clean, homely, full of so many kitchen implements - pots, pans, plates, glasses etc.... double what normally have so weren't always washing up - dishwasher anyway, welcome pack unexpected but very welcone after long journey. The setting was wonderful, so close to hornsea centre and seafront - walked everywhere and didn't use car for 4days. Beach beautiful, even swam in sea. In fact, we swam, jogged, rowed on the mere, walked and beach combed every day and all loved it. It was a delightful house which lead to a perfect family holiday. Can't wait to come again. The Wright's (Bristol), the Morgan's (Lincs) and the Hales (Herts).

  What a wonderful property!

  The massive garden was a huge hit with our 2 children, who enjoyed the space to play cricket, hide and seek and squirrel watch. The photos don't do it justice. The care we received from the owners was second to none, nothing was too much and virtually everything was provided for. The welcome pack was very welcome - thank you Pauline. The indoor space was great, again giving the children additional space away from the boring adults. The house is well placed for exploring the area and Hornsea is a lovely town with hardly any 'big names' to spoil the high street. The ideal place to enjoy a break and either relax and listen to the birds in the garden or go to the beach and dig for gold.
