We stayed here for a cosy valentines weekend and really enjoyed ourselves. The owners were super friendly and helpful, especially with lighting the wood-fired hot tub - it was ready when we got there! The place has everything you need, though we did bring food to cook but found theres no oven, just hob rings, microwave, kettle, toaster and fridge/freezer. Overall, wed definitely recommend this pod!

We had a lovely stay at the beach hut! It had everything we needed for the weekend and the hot tub was a real treat, especially with the gloomy weather outside. Highly recommend for a relaxing break!

We really enjoyed the place! The hot tub was lovely after a day out and the instructions made everything super easy to follow. Highly recommend!
Alex, Gb
Date of stay: 12th November 2024
We stayed in this charming little hut and honestly, its really well put together. The hosts were super friendly and always ready to help. The only thing that was a bit tricky was the step up - its quite high and with the icy weather, it was a challenge to get in and out without slipping. Maybe adding another step and some gritting would make a big difference. Also, the shower buttons a bit confusing - hot and cold are reversed, which had us scratching our heads till the last day! Apart from those tiny issues, we had a great time. The storm on our first night was pretty intense, but it didnt spoil the trip. Outside lighting could be better, especially at night, but the hot tub and view more than made up for it. Wed definitely come back!

Date of stay: 10th November 2024
We loved the stylish decor, especially the modern details that gave the place a fresh feel. The bed was super comfy and having Netflix and streaming services on the TV was a real bonus. The welcoming box of chocolates was a lovely touch and the view of Crimdon Beach first thing in the morning was simply stunning!
James, Ashington
Date of stay: 10th November 2024
Honestly, we had an amazing time and leaving was the hardest part! Definitely want to return soon.

Date of stay: 23rd October 2024
I really enjoyed our stay, but a few things could be improved. Blinds or one-way glass on the doors would add privacy and some softer lighting over the cooking area would make it cosier. The main lights are a bit too harsh sometimes!
Oliver
Date of stay: 11th October 2024
We had such a lovely time at Sandy Park! Michelle and Mark went above and beyond, making sure the hot tub was ready every day and even lending us a metal detector for some beach fun with the kids. The cottage was just perfect for us and we enjoyed a great day trip to Saltburn-on-Sea. Honestly, we loved every moment and cant wait to come back. Thanks so much!

Date of stay: 9th April 2024
We had a lovely stay at this cabin! The location is perfect for exploring the stunning local scenery - really easy to get around and see everything. The place itself was well equipped, so we never felt like we were missing anything and it was surprisingly warm in April, which was a relief. The bed is quite snug, but as shown in the photos, its cozy and comfy for a couple. One thing to mention is the hot tub. Its log-fired and they set it up for you free of charge, which is great. However, if you want to use it more than once, you do need to buy extra logs. During spring, youre constantly adding logs and tending to the fire if you want a warm soak - its not a huge hassle but something to be aware of. We booked this cabin mainly because of the hot tub and honestly, thats what made it stand out for us. It wouldve been nicer if the additional costs had been clearer upfront, rather than a bit of a surprise later on. Still, they werent too expensive, just a bit annoying. Mark was really helpful and friendly when he showed us round and explained everything. Overall, a very pleasant stay!
