Toffee Crackle - Staithes

Amazing stay, great location and we will 100% be back to Toffee Crackle at Staithes!

Positive: Lovely cottage feel, location, kitchen lovely Negative: No locks on bathrooms, when sharing with others its not ideal. I know this has been mentioned on other reviews and it is a real issue. Not enough seating in living room when party of more than 6, the 2 chairs are not comfortable as hard and uncomfortable, we didn't all sit together because of this. Bath in main bathroom seal on door is green and needs removing and cleaning, it was awful.

Great location with room for 8 adults. Positive: Great location, perfect size for us. Lovely and clean. Negative: Needs locks on bathroom doors. Needs loo roll holders. Needs enough wine glasses for 8 people. Needs enough seats for 8 people in the lounge. Needs a proper sized fridge; such a size for 8 adults is hopeless (especially when the bottle holders in the door are no longer present). We loved the place but those little tweaks would make it perfect.

Staithes holiday Positive: Bedrooms lovely. Beds and bedding comfortable Negative: House was unheated on arrival. Everyone felt cold for the first night and next morning until cottage warmed up. No welcome pack. (Wine, flowers, biscuits as most cottages do). Not enough wine glasses for house capacity. No utensil to lift fried eggs out of frying pan. No tin foil, cling film, kitchen roll, salt, pepper, ketchup, mayonnaise..tea, coffee, sugar. We regularly stay in rental holiday cottages and always find these things provided. We brought our own food to cook but had to go out shopping for all of the above items before we could just have a cup of tea.

Disappointing Christmas Stay Positive: The property has a lot of charm and is well located Negative: Minimal or no cleaning had been done. Dirt and rubbish piled up outside the kitchen window. One of the showers was blocked with slimy hair and overflowed through the kitchen ceiling on Christmas Eve.Oven was filthy. Had food remnants from previous guests.
