Visitor Reviews of Sandy Park

Jonathan

Date of stay: 14th April 2024

Fantastic rooms and amenities

Michelle

Date of stay: 9th April 2024

The location and cabin were lovely. Its a great base for exploring the local area, which is beautiful. The cabin is well stocked with everything you might need, and it was lovely and warm in April. The bed is snug, but you can see what you're getting from the pictures, and it was fine for the two of us. For us, there was only one fly in the ointment and that is the hot tub. It is log fired and they do set it up for you free of charge however if you want to use it more than once you will have to pay for additional wood. In summer one log burner set up might keep it warm for repeated uses through the day or night. In spring youre constantly chucking logs on it and tending to the fire. Not a huge issue however the hot tub was the reason I booked and payed more for this cabin over others on the website and I feel additional costs associated should have been stated explicitly. The costs weren't huge or unreasonable, just a hidden extra and I'm not keen on hidden extras. Mark was very helpful and friendly when he came to show us to the cabin and how to use the hot tub. Our stay was very pleasant overall.

Alan

Date of stay: 31st March 2024

Mark and Michele are amazing hosts. I stayed in the Stable Cottage which on arrival was immaculate and the hot tub at 39 degrees - perfect. The beach is a very short walk away, the ponies on site were a bonus. Security is covered well. Plenty to do for all ages within short journey time. Best of all it was so peaceful and relaxing. I forgot one will definitely be returning.

The Seagull is the largest of the pods at Sandy Park.Its only small but has everything you need for a romantic stay.The highlight was the hot tub set in its own private area.

Ellie

Date of stay: 13th February 2024

Mike & Michelle were absolutely FANTASTIC! They went above and beyond for us and ensured we had the best time. Our hot tub was nice and warm on arrival, our room was warm and spotlessly tidy. The facilities are great, everything you need for a good break. The location was perfect, we had a lovely stroll along the beach and around Crimdon Dene Natural Reserve. We are definitely coming back to stay in the Boat house, we had a lovely weekend and did not want to come back home. Definitely recommend to everyone whos looking to book, dont hesitate! Thank you both for ensuring we felt welcomed and happy!

Me and my partner had a lovely 2 night weekend stay in February- owners were located on site and couldnt be any more accommodating. Highly recommend and most likely will be returning!

lovely stay, nice spot on the beach front

Sarah

Date of stay: 22nd January 2024

Beautiful and quiet location. The owners were lovely and nothing was too much trouble for them. The cottage was warm and clean, with a comfortable sofa and beds. My only note, and this didn't detract at all from our stay, it is not carpeted and so, in the colder weather, needs a rug on the bedroom floor.

Verified Guest

Date of stay: 19th January 2024

I had one of the best staycations here! The owners are lovely and make sure your visit is the most enjoyable by making sure the hot tub is ready upon arrival. Its a 3 minute walk to the beach and a 10 minute drive to nearest town which is ideal. Would highly recommend and will definitely be coming back.

Really lovely stay, would recommend :)

Dawn, Leeds

A lovely place to stop for a visit. The family were very helpful and friendly and the accommodation had everything we could have needed.

Nicola, Gb

Perfect condition and hosts accepted feedback from us based on very small issues such as the step up to the tub.

Fiona, Glasgow

Beautiful getaway. Loved the hot tub and the actual hut was a good size.

Alexander, Irvine Scotland

Same as above great location , peace and quiet

Alison, Goole

The hosts were excellent when we kept loosing the WiFi connection, which the kids couldn't live without! Could have done with a couple of additional kitchen utensils - a pair of scissors & a draining spoon for poached eggs but managed without. The only thing I could criticise is that there was no wardrobe (there is room for one) I hated having to live out of my suitcase for the week.

Angela, Hull

The boat house had everything we needed. It was cosy and clean with little extras we werent expecting, tea, coffee, wine and chocolate! The bed was very comfortable, we were well rested at the end of our stay.

Christina, Oldham

Exactly what we needed for a restful stay in beautifully decorated and equipped accommodation- it felt as if alot of thought had been put into making our stay so enjoyable

Joyce, Scotland

Beach hut has the best views of the beach!

Alan, Ilford

Amazing time cannot wait to go back next year.

Stewart, Malton

This is a great place to stay, with the pods having everything you need as well as being almost on the beach. The owners were really helpful, ensuring we had a hot tub every evening. A lovely couple who are very accommodating with all you need for a wonderful holiday. Highly recommended
