Puffin Reviews

The property was very clean. The king size bed was very comfortable. It was like home from home with all facilities available. The place was very roomy and very comfortable. The back garden was fully enclosed with wooden open fence with wire netting to keep my dog secure The booklet was very well written to ensure you settle in quickly. I would reccommend this property to friends and family. Dave H.

Really like Flamborough and surrounding areas. Don't like Puffin. We are both close to 80 years old and there are areas we feel were hazardous to us. The settees were too low and we had to pull each other up. The floor levels are all over the place and for us it was difficult to walk on floor. The step into cottage was too high and we had to pull ourselves in using door jamb. No shower mat in shower which is slippy. All these topics have been mentioned in previous reviews and nothing has been done about them. Not good for us at our age.

Trevor

This is an amazing cottage well presented, very clean and well appointed, but i am disabled and the sofas are very low, so for me quite difficult to use. I have mobility issues and the floors are quite unstable in places, i am sure this would be fine for most, but for me a problem. All in all still a very good value few days. many thanks

Michael

Had a lovely weekend at puffin cottage. Good sized accommodation, nice fenced off and secure area at the back for the Dogs. Very well equipped. Can 100 recommend and hope to return again.

Maxine

We stayed hear for 7 days from 12th June to the 19th June. We had a lovely stay the property is close to Filey, Scarborough and Bridlington and a 45 minute drive from Whitby. The kitchen is well equipped and beds are very comfy. On arrival there was a crayed carpet edve which was a trip hazard and a towel holder hanging off the wall I reported this and the issues where resolved quickly on the day of reporting. The shower was powerful and plenty of hot water but the shower is very slippery so needs a shower mat and could do with a hand rail as you come out of it as it is not flat to the floor. The garden is great if you have dogs as fully secure. The property is lovely needs a little tlc as some of the skirting boards where not clean and the sofas have seen better days as they are to low to be comfortable for people over 55. I

Andrew

Lovely cottage ,great enclosed garden for our 2 dogs and a further communal dog area behind that. Very comfortable with 2 double bedrooms. We couldn't fault it.

Sandra

We were very comfortable and warm in the well equipped property. It was very clean. But could do with some maintenance and TLC. The front door was damaged when we arrived. A hinge pin hanging out of it. Our dog loved the secure garden and adjoining field. We will certainly be returning next year. Thank you Jacki John and staff at the Grange.

Judith

We had a lovely week at The Grange, the cottage was immaculate, as it was last year. An ideal base for us with our two dogs and all the lovely walks around and about within a short distance. We will definitely return!

Susannah

We enjoyed a lovely few days at Puffin Cottage. Comfy, practical and aesthetically pleasing accommodation with easy access to surrounding attractions and beautiful scenery. A couple of little maintenance issues frayed carpet threshold into the living room which could be a trip hazard The shower was a great size and clean but needs some minor maintenance around the floor of the cubicle and door frame. Could do with curtains on the double bedroom window as there's a security light directly outside which stayed on all night and the venetian blind didn't block it everso well. Also, there was no hairdryer only a very slight inconvenience. Altogether though, we enjoyed the stay very much!

Excellent place to stay and relax, recharge your batteries.

Lovely few days at Puffin cottage. Well equipped, everything you'd need, including dishwasher. Stayed at two other cottages on the site previously. Puffin is the best if you have a dog as only cottage with an enclosed outside area. Comfy bed but sofa's are very low for us oldies !! Lovely meals at the Viking hotel served all day. Two good fish and chip shops in the village. Hunmanby Gap beach dog friendly and lovely walk along the beach to Filey.

Excellent once again

Valerie

We had a lovely week at Puffin Cottage. It had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable, kitchen was wellequipped and the enclosed garden was perfect. Its a great base for exploring the area either on foot or by car. We hope to return soon!

Nikolah

Lovely place really comfortable and a lovely place to stay would highly recommend. Only thing I would suggest would be curtains in the bedrooms as the blinds didnt shut out the light so if a light sleeper then the early sun rise did wake you. But really didnt affect our stay and we would stay again if in the area

We had a lovely girls weekend away at Puffin cottage. The cottage was clean and the facilities were good and the enclosed garden was ideal for our dogs. It was within walking distance to the beachcliff walktown so was ideal for a nice relaxing weekend. We are looking to book again for next year and would 100 recommend anyone to stay here.

Angela

We had a lovely few days in puffin cottage,it was clean and warm,with comfortable beds,in quiet surroundings,near all local visiting sites. We are looking forward to staying at grange cottages again later in year,

Matthew

Absolutely amazing place to stay, everything was as described and pictured, for the first time in a long time,wehumansand the pugs didn't want to go home as there was so much more to explore, beautiful part of the country, housekeepers were absolutely lovely and so was Jacki the owner who we met on our stay,also having the added bonus of a secure garden made our stay even more enjoyable and relaxing. Thank you so much Jacki and Jonny for the perfect holiday x

Lovely property, complete with welcoming touches.

Liam Jonathan

Fantastic little cottages, this is the second time we've stayed and this time was in the puffin. Contact before was fantastic and sorted our accommodation exactly how we needed it with our 13 week old child. Perfect place. Will be staying again would highly recommend

Pauline

We previously stayed in gannett but this time we booked in puffin. Was nice good for the dog being enclosed at the back should all be like that.Lovely beds and well equipped. shower too low pressure and door was sticking fridge was noisy at night so that disturbed sleep other than that we will return again as its a lovely peaceful place and parking a must.These are not complaints just things that need addressing .

Sharon

The property itself was much nicer than the photos showed. Lovely welcome pack, especially for the dogs. The main issue was with the shower. There was lack of shower pressure, and the extraction fan did not work in the bathroom. It was also obvious with the debris from the sill the front door has been an issue for a while. The door was very stiff to open and close, and likely to be damaged in the future if not rectified. Otherwise, a lovely place to stay, and highly recommended. Excellent communication with the owners before the holiday. Thank you.

Lovely Property, very spacious and in a quiet part of Flamborough.

Lovely, clean, comfortable and well equipped cottage. Spacious but cosy. Dog friendly enclosed area outside back door is a real plus. We would stay here again and recommend to friends.

Excellent excellent excellent.

Tracey

Stayed in the puffin. Ideally behind conifers in fenced off garden, to have a fence for additional security as my dogs learnt to go through them onto shared grass area. Also wifi went off 1 night for a short time tried to call numbers given around 7pm no answer. Not sure if phones are covered only in the day?

Geraldine

Excellent cottage and facilities and location. The welcome pack was really appreciated. We had a problem with toilet cistern but Adam and maintenance crew were on it immediately and sorted it whilst we were out enjoying the holiday. One improvement would be to extend the garden fencing where the conifers are. We had dogs from neighbours in our garden and our dogs escaped as well so dogs could not be let out into garden unaccompanied. But a wonderful cottage Thankyou.

Carole

We loved our stay at the cottage, it was extremely comfortable and we had everything we could possibly need. There was quite a lot of loose newspaper and rubbish outside the back door under the hedge on the afternoon we arrived but this was cleared the next day. We would definitely recommend the cottage though and return again as it was ideal for what we needed and very close to both Bempton Cliffs and Flamborough Lighthouse which are the places we were there to visit.

Very clean and comfortable cottage. Being disabled I would have loved a doorstep at the front door as I found it rather a high step into the property. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to booking again in the future.

Melody

Lovely peaceful break. Very clean and comfortable. They had thought of everything that would be needed. The only critisism would be the shower temp on the first night was cold. Better on the second and the pressure. Otherwise a great stay.
