"A really enjoyable 4 night stay."
.. The owner couldn't have been more helpful, both in the run up to our arrival and while we were there (we couldn't figure the heating out!). All very easily resolved - fast and smooth. Cliff House is extremely well-equipped, and very comfortable. It was spotlessly clean and the welcome hamper was a really lovely touch. The beds are comfortable - not too soft, not too hard - and the bed linen soft and fluffy. The central heating is great and gets the house really warm - always a worry in a holiday cottage at this time of year - and we lit the stove every evening. The teens loved the hot tub. The cottage is about 4 houses away from a local shop that sells everything you'd need in a pinch - though at a price premium - while there's a massive Asda, Aldi (and McDonalds!) a 5 minute drive away in Skelton. Loftus itself is... pretty, but not touristy. Which was fine with us. We visited Whitby, Staithes, Saltburn and Skinningrove Beach - which is a must, you can walk from the cottage (15 minutes) but we drove on our way back from Staithes. It's a truly lovely beach. I would highly recommend this cottage and would love to return to visit all of the above places again, on a warm dry day. The weather wasn't kind to us but we had a great break anyway. Tiny improvements - a second bin in the kitchen for recycling, and hooks in the bedrooms for dressing gowns, which we wouldn't usually take on a short break, but hot tub! But honestly, the place has everything you need.
Hello, Thank you very much for your kind review, we are glad you enjoyed your stay and enjoyed the area. Your positive suggestions have been taken on board. We hope to welcome you again soon. Steven Pritchard Property Owner

Where you’ll be staying
LOFTUS
Saltburn-by-the-Sea 4 miles; Hinderwell 6 miles; Whitby 14 miles.
The village of Loftus lies 14 miles north of Whitby on the east coast of Yorkshire. Originally an old alum mining village, it comprises terraced houses, old stone cottages and a few grand stone dwellings. The long and lively main street hosts a variety of shops, eateries, pubs, banks and an impressive town hall. Lying behind the main street is a leisure centre with an excellent swimming pool. Loftus is well placed for discovering the small coastal villages of Runswick Bay and Staithes, the latter being a popular choice for artists. Four miles to the north is the elegant spa town of Saltburn with its golf club and long pier stretching over the wide sands. The stunning North Yorkshire Moors countryside is on the doorstep and the Jurassic fossil coast lies to the south.
Note: There is a supplemental charge to use the hot tub
