    Absolutely immaculate inside and out. All the kitchen facilities and utensils you need. Super comfy beds. Very modern bathroom with great shower. Quality fixture and fittings. Beautifully decorated which runs throughout the home. Hornsea center 15 mins stroll either use the footpath end of street by roundabout or walk straight down then turn right to the high street and the beach. 5 min walk to Tesco for any supplies you had forgotten. You can also get to the beach front by going along the road where the local shops are and also free parking when you get there. I would not hesitate to come back again Highly recommended Thank you Danielle and Chris x

    Lovely furnishings and fluffy towels. The heating was on when we arrived which was very welcome and little goodies left out. All information needed was to hand and the owners left their contact details if needed. Excellent location to all the Hornsea amenities and very close to the fantastic award winning Whiteheads Fish & Chip Restaurant/takeaway. We would definitely stay here again and will be highly recommending this property to our friends and family. Thank you again for a lovely stay.
