Tennyson House Reviews

Annette

A comfortable house ideal for a big group. Everywhere was clean and it was great to be able to sit together to eat or socialise but there was sufficient space to be separate if necessary The hot tub was a definite plus Parking was not a problem even for 8 cars and parking discs and scratch off cards were provided. We rang owner on arrival as key safe was empty she was very helpful and issue was resolved in minutes. House is only a few minutes walk from Peasholm Park and North Bay. There is a convenient shop, chip shop and even a bar although we didnt go in close by . Would definitely return if doing a group holiday again

The facilities were extremely comfortable, and there is plenty of space to relax. The cleanliness is amazing and it is a nice touch that cleaning supplies are provided. Would highly recommend and stay again!!

The inside of the property was great. Really comfortable and clean. Excellent information all laid out and the kitchen was well stocked with equipment. Unfortunately the outside space had cat poo right next to the outdoor eating space which had obviously just been covered over with straw, rather than cleaned up. The facilities team responded by text to us but didn't come to clean it up so we just couldn't face using that area. This was a disappointment in a house that cost so much to hire.

Tennyson house was in a brilliant location close to all the amenities, with lots of room for all our friends and family. The local management company and Julie, were so helpful, I would definately stay again. Scarborough had so many things to do, and kids and adults were entertained all week.

Philip

Excellent location lovely clean house Well organised parking for several cars

The family get together went really well. Thank you Jacqueline. Be proud of your super house. It is ideal for groups to use. The hot tub went down well too.

Was a lovely, spacious house. Thoughtfully laid out and in good location.

We were promised a stair safety gate for the bottom of the stairs for a two year old. It was not delivered. An animal appeared to have done his business near the hot tub.

The house fitted very nicely our needs. Nothing major to complain about. Small things which could be inproved. Wifi only on the Ground floor No instructions for the dishwasher. A cat that sh outside the back door every day. Availability of extra bed linen. We feel a checkout at 1000 am is too early. 7 adults and 7 kids to get out of the hose by 1000 was. Stressful. Checkout time will affect my next choice of house.

Stuart

Really enjoyed our stay at the retreat everything was well presented and modern and comfortable. We would definitely come back again. We praised you to all how friends and family. Thank you for the experience.

There was a minor problem with a leaking shower seal but I texted this through to the contact provided who thanked me for letting them know and said they'd deal with it. The communication was good in general and really welcoming

Excellent communications from the owner prior to arrival. The house was clean and tidy, lovely warm hot tub. Overall feedback from our group was that the house is a great place for large groups to stay. Good location close to shops and bars but in a quiet area. Felt like a home from home. The bedrooms were all comfy and shower facilities excellent.

Briony

Had a lovely girls weekend at the house, perfect for our needs and close enough to walk to the see front

We had a lovely stay at the retreat! ! The owner was so lovely and obliging. We were informed of an issue with the dishwasher which we don't use but it was sorted regardless the next day with a lovely handyman. The rooms were so comfortable especially the sofas!! The hot tub was amazing and the fake grass an added bonus no sludgy dog paws!! Only draw back we found was no downstairs loo. The stairs were on the steep side but it was all good. The location was perfect and the chippy round the corner well worth a visit!! Thanks for having us it was just what we needed!! X

We stayed a few weeks back for our first family get away. The house was spotless and had everything you needed to accommodate a 3 year to 82 year old. Theres plenty or room so you dont feel your all on top of each other. Julie was fantastic and contacted me several times before our stay with all the information we needed to access the property and to check everything was ok. The location is great, 2 mins walk down road and youre in the park have shop, chip shop and cafe. Theres a pub 10 minutes walk away with a pool table. Keep going down the hill and youre at the beach. Fantastic house in a great location!!

Excellent communication prior to arrival Excellent position near to local shopseateries amazing fish n chips on row of shops 2 mins away Christmas trees really nice touch Kitchen very well stocked for large group of 14 adults Hot tub was amazing and in excellent position near to back door Beds extremely comfortable though some elderly members of group thought bedrooms were a little chilly and could have done with thicker duvets, though to be fair it was a very cold weekend, with ice on ground Perhaps things to consider There were no locks on any of the communal bathroomstoilets this would have improved privacy and comfort. Mirrors absent in some of the bedrooms. A little tight sitting around dining table for 14 adults potentially 16 if all adults in party Overall, I would recommend The Retreat for a large group!

Lovely stay, had everything you need and very helpful information provided before your stay. Perfect location. Will be back again.

Anthony

Superb family house on a great location!

Rachel

Just come back from The Retreat weve had a fabulous 5 days. Close to Scarborough we walked it in 1520 mins,lots to do nearby we had a lovely walk in Peasholm Park with the dogs

Great stay for a group of 16. Well equipped kitchen. Superb hot tub, All rooms are spacious and comfortable. All essentials are provided. Easily accessible to beach and a beautiful park. Above all, Samantha is great in dealing with customers and have ensured we are briefed appropriately. One note, be careful with the parking disc, ensure you turned the clock in disc as we got a parking ticket. Nothing to do with the accomadation though. All other aspects 100 percent happy

We had a great weekend. The house was lovely and well situated.

Amazing house with plenty of space. Perfect for the weekend away we wanted. It was great to have outdoor space as well as the large communal rooms inside. Great location so close to the beach and great cafes and fish and chip shop nearby. Only slight drawback was parking as could only park for a few hours on the road during the day with a disc so a few of us who werent parked in the garage had to pay for 24hrs at a carpark down the road. We didnt mind having to do this but it would have been good to know beforehand.

Deborah

We had a great stay at the retreat stunning house with everything you could possibly need for a fabulous coastal holiday. Location was excellent 2 minutes from the beach and peasholm park,plenty of cafes,bars and shops nearby,loads of communication from owner before our trip welcoming us to retreat and informative info pack when we got there.we were all gutted to leave.

We had a great week in the Retreat. The house was over and above what we expected, well furnished, comfortable and lots of space. Parking was never a problem, always close to the house. Local amenities were brilliant with local shops, cafes and a chip shop a couple of minutes away. Peasholm Park was less than 5 minutes away which is a great place to walk or the kids to play. Communication with Sykes was amazing. Everything explained in well timed emails and texts and even a take care on your way home text and phone call on the last day. Thank you Samantha.

We stayed at the property as a group of 15 from 8th April 2022 for a week. We were really impressed with the property on arrival. There was plenty of space downstairs which was great for our large group. The dining room seated us all so that we could have meals together. The kitchen had plenty of crockery, cutlery, plans, dishes, trays etc. There was a dishwasher which was useful for a large group. The washing machine and dryer are really handy for washing and drying clothes after using the hot tub or going to the beach. The plastic glasses tumblers are useful for the children's drinks, but a lot of them were cracked so leaked. You can walk to Peasholm Park in a minute which was really handy. We also walked into Scarborough around the coast one day, and used the bus the other days. We all enjoyed using the hot tub during our stay. We travelled in four cars and parked two of them in the car port. The space is quite tight so we parked the two smaller cars in there. The other two cars used a parking permit. These are visitor permits so they only allow a three hour stay, with no return within one hour. As we didn't travel much from Scarborough we were concerned about receiving parking tickets. Fortunately we didn't see any traffic wardens sniffing around. Overall we had a great stay and enjoyed going to the beach, arcades, speed boat, crabbing and haunted house! We would recommend the house to any larger groups looking to stay in Scarborough.

Natalie

A lovely property in a great location. Our party of fifteen really enjoyed our break at The Retreat, they was plenty of space to accommodate everyone and the property was very clean with plenty of amenities. The kitchen had everything you would need and bedrooms, ensuites and bathrooms were a lovely size and very clean. The communication from the owner was excellent. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Louise

We stayed at the property at the end of February 2022, we were a party of 14 and found the property to be very clean, comfortable and plenty big enough to accommodate us all. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed and the bedrooms were all spacious and comfortable. The only down side was the family bathroom on the first floor did not have a working shower so that meant 2 couples had to jump in others ensuites however didnt cause a big problem. It is in a great position close to peasholm park and the sea front. The owner was lovely and gave us all the information we needed. Highly recommended!

Great place stayed there twice with 15 family members ,great space, hot tub ,plenty of permits for street parking ,great location. Very handy for outdoor theatre

Beverley

Wow what a beautiful house. The photos we felt does not do the house justice. Immaculately clean, lovely decorating and furnishings. 8 large size bedrooms, kitchen with everything you could need, brilliant for large parties, 2 kettles and toasters, large fridge freezer, dishwasher, washing machine and dryer. Could not say there was one single fault. Owner could not be more helpful, so lovely and very caring. House is less than 5 minutes from Peasehome Park and Scarborough Cricket Ground. Hot tub brilliant and yard made lovely to sit out. For a house with 8 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms is more than sufficient and lovely bathrooms beautifully tiled. Towels and bedding included. I am sure members of our party will definitely return

Charlotte

Very clean, modern, and comfortable. Well equipped kitchen for 16 people. Great having the separate living rooms if some wanted to just chill and watch TV. Great jacuzzi. Location great, everything you would want in walking distance. Only thing that the property would benefit from is a downstairs toilet but didn't effect our enjoyment. Everyone was very satisfied with their stay and would definitely recommend.

Jessica

The property was everything we could have wanted, it was spotless, spacious, comfortable and well located. The property manager was extremely helpful and quick to respond when needed. All in all we had a fabulous stay for a special occasion and would love to stay again.

We loved the location of The Retreat, the north bay in Scarborough is great, beach and Peasholm park are lovely and lots to do locally in walking distance. The bedrooms and beds were super comfy. However the house is tatty, no curtains or blind on many windows, showers overflowing and taps dripping, feels very unloved and cheaply converted. Quite dark and dingy inside and back yard isnt great. We had a great holiday but wouldnt go back to this house in a hurry, not worth the money and much lower quality than we usually get from Sykes.

Location excellent central to all amenities. Quite a few minor problems that mounted up during our stay. Showers not working, windows that didn't open, bins not collected so rubbish mounted up, one bathroom had a bubbling shower drain when toilet flushed. It advertises parking for two cars which was a struggle very tight. When we phoned sykes they informed us they couldn't help and we had to phone owners direct they were extremely helpful and rectified some of the issues. Although some of our issues were minor considering what we paid we did not feel it was up to the standards it should've been.

The accommodation and location was more than we expected, the rooms were superb for our needs. The kitchen was well equipped and again met all out needs, the hot tub, lounge areas, we loved. I would certainly recommend the retreat to my friends and family.

Andrew

Fantastic location, all the rooms en suite which helps large familys

The house is in a fabulous location walking distance to Peasholm Park which is a massive family area with lots of walks and a lake with pedaloes to hire. The beach is also just a short walk away that allows dogs on there in certain sections. When the tide is out its a beautiful beach and the dogs loved running on the sand! Along the beach front theres a few shops, eateries and ice cream shop. Further along theres the sea life centre, crazy golf everywhere and another pub. From the house, theres a convenience store just at the bottom of the road plus a chip shop, cafe and pub. Larger stores like Aldi are a good 20 minute walk away but easy to get to. The road and area the house sits in was very quiet and pleasant. The house was very clean and exceeded our expectations with the size of the bedrooms. Very comfy beds and all rooms having TVs one remote missing though. The facilities were fabulous, the house had everything we could want inside. The toaster did keep tripping the electric off. There were some plumbing issues in the house that meant one ensuite couldnt be used but the owners had tried to rectify this while we were there. We were extremely disappointed with the back yard that could only be described as a concrete box. This really let it down for us. This house is definitely not dog friendly! The hot tub was a winner with the kids but some money needs spending on flooring around it as have to step in and out on to concrete, leaving muck in the tub and back in the house. The WiFi barely worked which wasnt great with kids but was not an issue. Parking was advertised as two off street parking spaces and one on the road but a permit was needed to park on the road so couldnt do this? If a garden is not an issue then this house is definitely worth a visit!!! Unfortunately we are all outside and garden lovers so would not come back based on that alone.

An excellent place to stay. Very clean and well furnished. Excellent access to the park and beaches. Would highly recommend
