Two separate double rooms each with its own facilities. Excellent for two couples sharing the apartment. Good sized, well equipped kitchen. Comfortable lounge. Lots of eating options within a short distance.<br/><br/>Access via steep steps could be a problem for some people. It didn’t affect us greatly, although a bit tricky with cases and bags on arrival and departure.

Beautiful standard of accommodation,well thought out and fab first impressions as you walk through the door, very clean, everything you need for your stay, we loved the bedrooms their decor and furnishings, both with ensuite which was great for our family. In a fabulous location in Staithes overlooking the main street, all local amenities within walking distance. We throughly enjoyed our stay. Also above Dotty's Tea Rooms which we called into get some scones to takeaway which were delicious too.<br/><br/>Nothing not to like the only thing is to be careful on the steps going up and down to the bedrooms as some are narrower than others but this is because of the age of the property but there are hand rails, steps are carpeted and lights at floor level which go on as you walk up and down again a lovely touch.

Excellent location <br/>Property was amazing<br/><br/>Access to the property was up steep steps and past bins and untidy, however aware this isn't the fault of the property as communal bins

Wonderful location, cosy and well appointed. Easy to bring the cars down the narrow Street even on a Bank Holiday<br/><br/>Well nothing really - except car parking info was unclear - permit for council car park for one car only - and queries about this prior to staying were not clearly answered. It is possible to book additional private parking at cost - this needs to be clearly states as essential if coming in two cars.

Staithes is a beautiful coastal village, close to many activities.<br/><br/>Dotty coastal retreat is a relaxing place to stay and end the day. Simply wonderful.<br/><br/>Let's be honest, the noisy seagulls might get to some people, but to me it adds to the charm of location.

Really lovely, relaxing stay at Dotty's Coastal Retreat cottage. Trudie, the landlord, checked in to ensure we had access to car parking permit from beginning of our stay. Plentiful supply of tea, coffee, milk, bottled water and biscuits! We didnt cook a meal in the cottage however the kitchen was perfectly equipped to do so if we had chosen to with double oven, bakeware, cookware and plenty of crockery, cutlery etc. Rooms and decor excellent with a lovely, pretty French feel to the place and lots of nautical charm!<br/>The tearoom below is worth a visit and we enjoyed toasties and coffee there.

Excellent accommodation Trudie the owner has thought of everything. Very well appointed and very comfortable. The only negative is that you have to climb up quite a few steps to get into the property so it wouldn't suit people with mobility issues.<br/><br/>Just the steps into the property

Beautiful location in one of Britain’s loveliest coastal villages. The caveat to a great stay was the unnecessary bombardment of offers and info from Host & Stay. They are an agency in their own right with their own platform and way of doing things. The small print hits you with a non refundable damage insurance. Staying in literally dozens of properties and this was a first.

This cosy property is spacious and comfortably furnished. The kitchen was well appointed and clean and the shower has good water pressure. The owner has kindly provided games and there is a television to provide some light entertainment in case of bad weather. The weather can be cold and blustery outside however, there are plenty of throws to supplement the heating inside.<br/><br/>We were surprised how steep the walk from the village to the car park was and feel it is worth highlighting this along with the fact the steps from the road to the front door can be slippery when there is rain.

Centre of village. Nice local pubs/restaurants.<br/>Lovely owner who couldn't have been more helpful<br/><br/>Only issue was pricing on booking.com, not sure if it's due to Host and Stay but the total outlay was much more than the initial offer on the booking.com site. I emailed Host and Stay but never received anything other than what appeared to be automated responses.

Location was very good and it was very comfortable and clean inside.<br/><br/>1) car park voucher not available in cottage, had to pay for car park 2) approach to entrance had rubbish and was vet dirty
