"Love this cute little cottage, have stayed several times and looking forward to another stay at Christmas."
Everything you need is there very cosy. Lots of places to visit close by and your own parking is brilliant, bed is so comfy +++++
-

-
"As usual the cottage was clean and fresh no complaints we thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and we will be back"
-
"This was a beautiful clean house with easy access to buses."
Bed large and very comfortable in fact everything was first-class.
-
"Had a fantastic holiday, the cottage was very clean and tidy."
Plus the location being so close to the beach, we couldn't have asked for more.
-
"Fantastic location the most comfortable bed we have had away."
Perfect for us 2 and our little dog only slight criticism is lawn had not been cut for a while and bushes and hedge out the front could do with a good cut back as made living room very dark.
Thank you for your feedback. We have tackled the bushes which are beautiful in flower but had got a bit big I agree. The lawn is cut at each changeover unless it is wet which unfortunately may have been the case prior to your visit. Glad you liked the bed Property Owner

"Accommodation was good , very comfortable mattress."
A clock would be a welcome addition. Walked to beach and Peasholm park. buses very unreliable

"I have already spoken to owner about the situation at the cottage about the problem with noise from the neighbours ."
we had a terrible week as the shouting and arguing went on continually all day and night a horrible week, but both the owner of our property knew about the situation and the owner of the rented house next door and the lack of cleanliness all around the cottage a point that a deep clean had been brought to her attention in January by another guest and still by April the situation had not been addressed. Not acceptable at all.
Thank you for your feedback and your previous regular visits to the property. I am sad that you felt it necessary to post this review as I have done everything possible to address your concerns and make reparations. The noise issue was intermittent and has been addressed - the individual concerned has left the area. My cleaners take pride in their work and I think they do a fab job. Property Owner

"A lovely cosy property situated in a quiet location which is close to a supermarket and is a 5 minute walk to the beach."
Clean and tidy and dog friendly with a small garden.
-
"Lovely place to stay , warm and comfortable and clean."
Bed very comfortable Nice welcome pack One of the pubs was shut for maintenance ( tunny) But still walked to the Scalby Mill and the Ivanhoe . Tesco express over the road ( expensive) Garden ideal if you've a dog Would recommend , very enjoyable but you've to enjoy walking if you like Scarborough front , or use the car if you don't want to walk
-
"Quiet little cul-de-sac position perfect location to explore Scarborough and surrounding areas."
Had everything we needed ( except lighter for gas hob ,but managed with microwave until we got one ).Comfy bed and hot powerful shower. I would say maybe could do with a deep clean ( cutlery drawer) and radiators a bit dusty. Cushions on sofas could do with replacing as flat making it difficult to get comfy. Overall as expected for rating and had an enjoyable weekend.

Warm and cosy. Best of all was the location. Only 5 minutes walk to North Bay. Perfect.
-
"First time staying at quarterdeck , will definitely be back."
Cosy and comfy, a quiet peaceful area .Off road parking space a bonus. Microwave a bit high for me but my husband could reach it ok . Although we have a car the cottage is easily accessible for buses so we had a run round to different places on buses( especially since we had our passes ).
-
"Been a few times to this property Never had any problems Clean."
Tidy and very DOG friendly Would happily recommend

Another stay at this little gem of a cottage , absolutely loved it again and already booked for next year, everything you need is there and your own private parking a real bonus, the only thing I had a little issue with is the paving flags outside very uneven and tripped over them, I actually met the cleaner she is a lovely friendly lady and had the place spotless again looking forward to our next visit

"We have been going to Quarterdeck cottage for many years and have enjoyed our visits and look forward to returning."
It is clean and very comfortable and also close to all amenities.
-
"We have stayed at Quarterdeck a few times, and find the property comfortable , handy for the beach, and near to main roads out or into town."
-
"Good location for open air theatre."
-
"Had a really enjoyable stay."
The cottage was lovely clean and commutable, and the coffee, tea and biscuit was a great touch. Plus the dog biscuit was an extra bonus. The only thing we could have done with was a clock and being able to watch Freeview on the tv. The next time we go to Scarborough we will definitely book Quarterdeck if it's available.
-
"Property clean & tidy, comfortable bed, sofa under window in lounge bit hard, probably due to being a sofa bed."
Great location, quiet neighbourhood. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.
-
"We absolutely loved our stay at this lovely little cottage."
Both myself and my partner were extremely impressed with how clean and comfortable it was. The enclosed garden was great for our dog and the location of the cottage was super - just a short walk from the beach and other attractions. The little touches in this cottage really made us smile on arrival. A jar of dog biscuits and a selection of tea/coffee/ and biscuits for us made for a warm welcome. The towel rail did come off in the bathroom during our stay but it didn't affect us. Absolutely no complaints whatsoever about our stay. We can't wait to stay here again.

"Cottage very nice and had everything you could need."
Unfortunately dog poo not cleared in garden so didn't venture in. Next door, 5, very noisy and on last night still DIY ing at 2.30am, so had to drive home after a poor night's sleep. For this reason we would not return or recommend.
-
"Very clean and tidy everything on hand great place to stay thank you"
-
"Very lovely property, the tea, coffee, milk and biscuits were a god send after our long journey."
We decided not to use the table so the lap trays were very useful. Very comfortable bed and sofas, a lovely large bathroom and a kitchen with all needed for a relaxing holiday. Wonderful holiday, thank you!
-
"Super location for the beach."
Warm and comfortable cottage with a little garden for the pooch. Bonus to have a parking space. Enjoyed our stay and would recommend.
-
"Lovely property very clean and well kept comfortable sofas plenty of cushions to raise the height for us oldies, very nice goodies even Yorkshire Tea bags and chocy biscuits for us and a jar of dog biscuits for Raylee our Maltese."

"Property is in a very good location, easy walking distance to the beach & local attractions."
Well stocked mini supermarket nearby. Very comfortable property with convenient enclosed garden. Easily accessible parking area. Our only suggestion would be to have waste bins in the living area & the bedroom.
-
"Lovely place to stay, quiet and ideal spot for the beach , walking in to town and along the sea front."
It had everything we needed , comfortable and clean. Hopefully we be back next year.

We have stayed at Quarterdeck cottage for several years and the cottage is always fresh and clean and have ever found any faults with this property We hope to return next year
-
"If the property had been accurately described, we most probably not have booked it."
It was one of 3 properties in a single small building. The space for off road parking, if that is what it was, was somewhat taken over by vegetation, though there was a reserved parking space. The garden area is not attached to the property which is what we thought from the description. More guidance on using some of the appliances would have been helpful.
Thank you for your feedback. There are 2 parking spaces available for the property. I suspect you were thinking that the space in front of the house which is slated and has vegetation was for a car? The back garden is adjacent to the property and this is clear in the property write up with Sykes - I am sorry this was a surprise to you. I take on board your point about instructions for the appliances. I will look at making these available. I am always on the end of the phone to help if needed. Property Owner

"Perfectly proportioned cottage and its position makes it easy to explore Scarborough and the surrounding areas both in foot and in the car."
It is well presented and in a lovely quiet cul de sac. Would be happy to stay again.
-
"We loved Quarterdeck, very clean and well equiped, would certainly go again."
-
"Absolutely beautiful little house."
Clean, comfortable and dog friendly. Cannot wait to come back. We normally come to Scarborough twice a year and if we had not already booked somewhere for this August, we would be back. Hopefully returning March and August 2023.

"Our second visit to this property , good location, and house well maintained."
-
"This was our fifth visit to this property over several years."
It is a very clean,comfortable and cosy house in a great location ten minutes from the beach with three pubs within ten minutes walk also. Many improvements have been to this property over time, and we will definitely be back again. The only slight negative thing is the uncomfortable settees which seems to be a recurring theme in most reviews, these have been at the property for as long as we have been going and are very tired so could do with being replaced.
Sofas have been replaced Property Owner
-
"Good accommodation for 2 people, clean, and everything you need for a short stay."
good location for walking into Scarborough. only slight problem we had was locating the key box. we would be happy to stay there again.
-
"We have just had a fantastic week at the Quarterdeck cottage."
The location couldn’t have been any better. 5 mins walk to beach/Pub/Tesco extra/Waterpark. The cottage was very cosy and warm. It looks like there has been a full refurb to a high standard. The kitchen was well stocked with a new cooker. Upstairs bathroom lovely with a brilliant shower. The bed was very comfortable. Great value for money. We would highly recommend you try this cottage. Amanda the owner was approachable and very helpful. Christine and Steve xx

"Whilst property was clean, tidy, in good location, what let it down was very uncomfortable sofas, when you are all day walking, its nice to sit down and relax, not to end up with back ache from furniture that should have been replaced years ago, also our double bed was two singles put together, also not very comfortable, wifi was hit and miss, and one toilet roll for two adults for one week is ridiculous, we wont be back for sure."
Brand new sofas. Brand new king size bed and mattress. Property Owner
-
"The property was in a quiet part of Scarborough with amenities close buy with a Tesco extra and pub close bye the walk to the beach was about 15 minutes down the side of the water park."
The only negative was the settee that turned into a bed if required it was very un comfortable to sit on apart from that everything was perfect.
Brand new sofas Property Owner

"Sofas diabilcally unsafe."
DEFINATELY A HAZARD bum nearly on the floor. Bathroom not been cleaned upon arrival. Garden no lighting. Solar lighting would be good. No way for dogs to see. . Not next to property. Expected to clea whole house before leaving. Vacum made house smell. Upon arrival strong smell of dog urine. Spent money on joss sticks to stem the smell. Possibly wood floor or lino would help with smell. Soft furnishing need cleaning. Awful smelly....maybe owner to spot check cleaners occasionally. We spend extra to have houses cleaned,yes we clean as we do at home,but think it's a check to do thorough deep clean upon leaving as we didn't find this on arrival. 2nd time we booked expected sofas to been replaced. . Plants front garden should be trimmed so front windows can be opened too give fresh air. Some little snag lists to be repaired plugs small fingers can get in. Taps loose etc. Possibly owners to stay clear for weekend to see how it is for clients.
Thank you for your feedback on Quarterdeck. I have taken your comments on board and will be making some improvements: - There will be a deep clean of all soft furnishings. - One of the sofas will be replaced. - Vacumn cleaner filters have been replaced. - There are no plants obstructing the opening of the windows - the hydrangea have been in full bloom at the front of the house and will be dead-headed now that they have finished flowering. - Snag list will be created and addressed. Brand new sofas and king size bed and mattress installed 02/22 Property Owner

"Furniture (couch) needs updating"
-
"What a lovely house in North bay scarborough, really clean and tidy with a small outside enclosed garden."
The location of the property is amazing a quiet area and only 5 mins. walk to the beach. Plenty of pubs/restaurants close by and very near to the water park and Peasholm park. Would certainly recommend a stay at Quaterdeck and ideal for a couple with a dog.
-
"The house is lovely apart from the settees that have both sadly seen better days."
They both sag tremendously in the middle so much so you need a hand of get yourself up from them. Also the bed is a zip linked and is far too soft you roll into the middle. Sadly I won’t be visiting this accommodation a third time. After my first experience I thought perhaps the owner would change the furniture but alas she hasn’t. So no more for me, pity as I do love to visit Scarborough every year sometimes twice. But not in this accommodation.

Another lovely stay, second time here, lovely treats left for us and our dog molly enjoyed her treats, plenty of sanitizer left for us to use, really helpful, thank you again xx
-
"The owner of the quarter park where we stayed left the lot and sanitiser for us ..."
The owner of the quarter park where we stayed left the lot and sanitiser for us to use the place was very clean and spotless however me personally I think he could do with a coat of paint and apart from Mark it was lovely
-
"Lovely house, great location, plenty of walks."
Great for a weekend, but if any longer would need the use of a washer. Just a suggestion.
-
"Lovely cottage in a quiet location, easy walk to the beach."
We enjoyed exploring the surrounding areas all within an easy car journey or a walk into Scarborough We would suggest getting your outside light changed as it is not of any use at present, not bright enough. Although you state enclosed garden it is not enclosed to the property for dogs, you have to go with them to the garden although only a few metres away, our dog could also fit under the gap next to the gate. Overall though a lovely stay in a homely environment and would thoroughly recommend. Thanks for the wine and the dog treats on arrival, a thoughtful touch.
-
"Great location, wine, biscuits and doggy treats were a nice surprise."
Would book here again
-
"A great little property, homely and comfortable close to the beach for great walks with the dog."

Unexpected and welcome bottle of wine and doggy treats plus dog bowls and towel will recommend and definitely book again. Thank you for lovely holiday.
-
"Lovely quiet location but still close enough to walk to all North bay facilities and a very handy Tesco convenience store on the corner."
Super walks for our terrier and a nice enclosed garden to sit out at eat al fresco!
-
"Lovely quite area, private car parking a real bonus, we have already booked again for next year, love the community here met the cleaner on arrival a lovely lady, the cottage was lovely and clean and the wine and dog treats a lovely touch, and the staff at Sykes are very accurate on properties and can not do enough, will not book with anyone else."
Totally trust them
-
"Lovely place to stay."
Bottle of wine and doggy treat was a welcome surprise. Brilliantly located. Only suggestion would be to have a gate at the bottom of the stairs to stop the dog going upstairs. We had to do a make shift job.
-
"Sykes staff were very helpful when booking and asking questions leading up to our stay."
The cottage was lovely, just what we expected and there was a nice treat waiting for us on arrival (bottle of rose) :-) excellent location and perfect for me my partner, our chocolate lab and golden retriever
-

"We were very happy with Quqrterdeck, this is the third time we have stayed there."
It is an ideal little house for two for a late Autumn break as it is cosy and comfortable. It is ideally situated for walking to the beach and into Scarborough.
-
"The cottage was handy to the town and the beach but the settee could do with being upgraded as we found it to low and uncomfortable to sit on, the shower could also do with being changed."
We did enjoy our holiday despite the weather.
-
"Quarterdeck is lovely and cosy."
Very well situated for the beach. Dog friendly too. We had a lovely stay and will be booking again.

"Absolutely fantastic."
Enjoyed every minute of our break.

"The place was clean and usable,,,, but a number of improvements could be made :- The picture even on your email and online information is misleading it gives the impression of the place being a bigger place not converted into two small units with side doors."
.. lots of noisy floorboards need fixing Microwave in kitchen needs to be sorted as its dangerous, for two reasons almost fulls of the wall just one screw holding it up and the brackets are all wrong,,, 2nd its to high would be very easy to tip hot contenance over oneself Door of bathroom does not fit. Shower hard to use cannot get to the taps without getting into it, awkward when just doing ones hair etc, table under the stairs is very tight, Would suggest a re think down stairs perhaps remove the wall from the kitchin to the living area remove the two old pull out beds and put some 90 degree nice seating there from the side wall under the window to the kitching side, also placing a table there, the heating could go under the stairs...... a small wishing machine dryer could be fitted under a kitchen unit next to the sink,,, Kind Regards

"The property was ideally located a pleasant walk to the North Bay."

-
