  • "Wavecrest is a beautiful bungalow, it was spotlessly clean and a credit to the lovely cleaner."

    Nice to have a welcome pack which not all holiday rentals do, we have visited Hornsea many times before and I think this is one of our favourites due to the proximity of the grassed area at the other side of the gate, ideal for the dog and our walk to the beach. Liked the sea view and even got to sit in the outside sun lounge for a couple of hours which we didn't expect to do in November. Will return again next year.

  • "Fabulous, well-equipped cottage in a great location."

    Handy for the sea, walks along the prom, dog walks immediately outside, local amenities and all points up and down the coast. The garden shed was brilliant for reading every day and in better weather there are places to sit outdoors in the enclosed garden. Friendly, helpful but unobtrusive owners. I've booked to go again.

  • "What a gem!"

    Wavecrest is a cosy, comfortable cottage, situated in a quiet spot, providing everything one could need whilst on holiday. The patio areas are well maintained and offer great places to sit to enjoy the views and the sun. I loved sitting in the thoughtfully placed chair by the patio door watching both the sea and the world go by. This is just the place if you want a relaxing holiday away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

  • "Wonderful cottage in a spectacular location right next to the sea."

    Cottage has everything that you need for a relaxing break and the fact that they take dogs is a bonus. Our dog loved it and went out for at least three long walks a day. Already booked for next year.

  • "The location of this property is amazing."

    On one side the start of the Trans Pennine Trail and on the other a field and the beach. We were unlucky with the weather but looking out over the sea in a morning then walking down the Trail with the dog was bliss in spite of the wind and rain. Found some picturesque, secluded beaches up the coast. Hornsea itself is really clean with some lovely little shops and eateries. For anyone without a car, the town centre is an easy walk and you can also reach Tesco via the Trans Pennine Trail through the lovely Community Orchard. Cottage is clean, comfortable and well-equipped for self-catering. The only thing missing was oven gloves but this is a minor point. The outside area is secure for all but the tiniest dogs but due to a few plants such as rhubarb that are toxic to dogs then they would have to be supervised. Delighted with the messages from the owners and the little extras left on arrival. Would highly recommend.

  • "A brilliant location with access to lots of walks without having to drive, a short walk to the park and shops- a really great spot."

    The accommodation itself was clean with lots of thoughtful equipment, gas fire in the living space and a much needed utility room for muddy boots! Genuinely dog friendly with an enclosed garden and hose outside. The only drawback was the WiFi was very intermittent meaning we couldn't really watch the smart TV.

    The bungalow was spotlessly clean, very well maintained and was extremely cosy and comfortable. We were greeted with a wonderful welcome pack which included tea, coffee, milk, biscuits and even a bottle of wine. The bungalow is a credit to John and Maxine who were very friendly and helpful with our pre-visit questions. We would highly recommend this property and will definitely be returning hopefully in the warmer months to make use of the outdoor space.

    The location could not be beat you could see and hear the waves from the cottage. The property had everything you could need. The inside and outside was immaculate and a lovely welcome pack included a bottle of wine was there to greet us on our arrival. The garden was fully enclosed which is what we needed for our cockapoo Harry. We spent lovely mornings sitting outside having our breakfast cuppas.
