The property was spacious, well equipped and very clean. Beds were very comfortable with good quality bedding.
The location was secluded and quiet within walking distance of the village.

The patio area would benefit from some weeding although it was not a major issue.

The property was just what we wanted for a short break in Scarborough if just a little further out than would have been ideal and required Taxis. It was very well decorated, an excellent size and had all necessary facilities. The local pub and tea room couldn't be faulted. The management company were easily contactable. There were various tea, coffee, cleaning materials, etc provided. There is plenty to do in Scarborough Stephen Joseph Theatre, William Smith Museum, St Martin's stain glass and lots more within an hours car journey (Whitby, Rivaulx Abbey, Pickering (North York Moors Railway expensive!).

We had a problem with one of the showers (the management company were prepared to fix the next day which was good) Not being very technical we struggled with finding specific TV channels and there were no instructions. When this was relayed to the management company they indicated they would address that. It was disappointing the outside areas were in need of some grounds maintenance particularly bearing in mind the high standard of internal fittings and decor.

Great location, nice and spacious and modern, lots of reception rooms and access to the garden.
Comfy beds, nice bed linen, kitchen well equipped, plenty of space to relax.

Garden could do with some maintenance, the family bathroom shower was quite temperamental and lock from sunroom to garden very difficult to open.

Great clean home with plenty of space. Fantastic communication with the management company. Lovely location with pub, cafe and shops just a two minute walk away... with some lovely longer walks on your doorstep.
Would stay again if I'm in the area.

White Lodge was very well situated so that access to Whitby and Scarborough centre and beachfront was easy. The house was spacious and well appointed. Scalby village was in walking distance with a range of pubs and shops close by.

Spacious bathrooms and kitchen. Good size twin rooms and a massive master bedroom with an en-suite. Beautiful living room and overall tastefully decorated house. Instructions, once received, were clear, and access to the house was easy.

The radiator in the living room was not working (although a small electric heater was provided, but it took a while to warm up the room). It would have been nice to provide washing sponges and kitchen towels. Also, given that the place was booked for 3 days/2 nights for 6 people, extra soap/shampoo would have been nice to have. Entry instructions are only provided 1-2 hours before. Although understandable, this does cause a little inconvenience if you are already driving.

A lovely home, very spacious and private with easy parking and gardens for the children. Everything in the home was in good condition and felt safe for young children - one morning, someone came to complete outdoor maintenance of the property but happily waited when asked to as the little one was upset by this. Great location, close enough with great access to attractions, local supermarket, waterpark, park, beach etc whilst maintaining privacy and a very good sized property. Would have loved earlier check-in/ later check-out to enjoy the property longer.

Apart from the garden which was very scruffy it was a nice and comfortable on the inside. It was as described though the £90 cleaning fee was not value for money as there were lots of cobwebs and spiders on ceilings and in corners. Location great and close to a fantastic pub. Kitchens and bathrooms clean and the lodge was in a quiet spot. Overall good but a little more attention to detail would have made it excellent!

The house is lovely inside and the village we just love as stayed before. The house was spacious with very comfy beds.
Big negative it’s winter and we had an 8 month old with us and on arrival the house was freezing and took a good hour to warm up. So would recommend heating out on first thing in the winter on days of arrival. Also the garden really needs a tidy up. Drain was full of leaves so over flowing . Overall loves the house and would and hopefully stay again.

White Lodge is in Scalby, ideally situated to be near enough to Scarborough but in a quiet area . It is a spacious property, ideal for the family.
Plenty of room to move about in the house and everything about is of a very high standard.
Would like to go again.

The property was very well furnished but we did have a few disappointments. The garden and patio were unkept. The kitchen only had 3 cooking pots/pans which was very limiting when cooking. And we found the property very hot even after we turned the heating off. These aside, we would be happy to book this property again as it served us very well.

A lovely home. A few things that could be improved .... firstly the garden needs weeding and a bit of maintenance. The drive area for turning a car around is quite tight so larger cars may struggle. It's too close to a blind bend to reverse out the property. It was cold when we arrived and took a while to heat through, then figured out quite a few of the radiator valves were closed off so once this was sorted it was fine.
Beds were very comfy and despite the above we enjoyed our stay. 2 pubs not far away for meals however they were busy so would recommend booking in advance for meals

The house is big and bright so there was plenty of space for 6 adults and 2 infants. Lots of social spaces. Good sized bathrooms. Scalby is a beautiful little village and there is a shop and pub close by in walking distance. My only quibble is that I didn’t enjoy booking through an agency. They ask you to pay a £250 deposit with £10 admin fee, or £25 non refundable fee in case you break something which felt an easy way to make money. I’ve never been asked that before. They also did not give me check in details on time and I had to call a couple of times (to listen to music on hold for a while) before getting through. It’s a pleasant stay overall but felt it lacked the warmth of an actual one person host. The garden also hadn’t been mowed for several weeks so it all felt a bit meh when you take into account the overnight price and £90 clean. The house was relatively clean and the house was warm. It was stocked with tea, coffee, salt etc.

Property was set back from road, quiet and peaceful
The house was clean with a range of amenities
Beautiful property - we had a wonderful stay

Grass needed a cut to be able to walk on it and trees needed a trim on drive
TV was really difficult to use as remote didn’t seem to work properly
No mattress or pillow protectors

We were very pleasantly surprised with the house, it was spacious and clean.
The property was excellent overall, although being seasoned airb&b visitors we are used to welcome packs of which there was nothing l! And also more accommodating managers, we found them a little unhelpful. For instance when I initially I requested all rooms to be made up as kingsize I was told to call back a few days before to make this request. Equally when I asked for an early check in I was told to call back the day of arrival and even though I knew no one was in prior to us, as we were offered the property for the previous day. When I called it was oh well we really can’t help you!!!! I think the management company were disappointing versus the quality of the property. Although I would also note the garden and hedging in to the driveway needs attention.

The fact insurance was not mentioned until the place was booked and as it was short notice until the place could not be cancelled.
The TV was not very responsive to the controller.

The house was beautiful and perfect for our needs as a multi generational family group and situated in a lovely village, which meant everything was walkable (shop, local pubs).
Although we were a bit disappointed on arrival that the bedrooms had not been configured as doubles as we requested and the house was cold, as no heating had been switched on for us in advance of our arrival, once we had resolved that, we really enjoyed everything the house had to offer and had a fantastic weekend. We would definitely stay again.

What a lovely house White Lodge is. Spacious, very comfortable, warm and cosy and ideal for the 5 of us who stayed there in order to celebrate a 100 birthday. We visited both The Plough and The Yew Tree Cafe, both in walking distance, and enjoyed their fine fayre very much. We will most certainly recommend White Lodge to our family and friends.

This is a stunning, spacious house!! The house is in a beautiful setting with gardens all round it. The house was very large even for 6 of us. Everything was spotlessly clean and the kitchen had every thing you could want to use for making meals. The fridge/freezer was a great size and we used the shelves in the utility room as a larder for storing our dry foods. The toilet downstairs was great for daytime use and the bathroom and en-suite were excellent. The lounge was so great with two huge sofas and a tv.
We did not use the dining room very much as we ate in the kitchen most of the time. Unfortunately the weather was not brilliant so we did not use the conservatory or the garden, but both were available.
We walked to the Plough to eat and the food and the service were excellent. It was worth booking as they got quite busy. We also ate breakfast at the Yew Tree which opened at 10.00a.m. so after we packed up it was great to go there.
There is parking for at least 2 cars.

What a fantastic place to stay just a stones throw away from Scarborough. The house itself is beautiful and was really clean with everything you would need. The village is beautiful with two pubs and a handy shop within walking distance.
Couldn’t fault the accommodation or the communication throughout and we would absolutely stay again.

We really enjoyed our stay at White Lodge from 21st -25th August with our family of 6 adults and 2 infants. The house was beautiful and the village of Scalby was very peaceful with many amenities close by or within easy walking distance. Highly recommended and wouldn’t hesitate to stay again in the future.

White lodge is a beautiful peaceful “big” house to stay at Within quiet surroundings. The beds where very comfy and theres loads of space in the house, and rooms. The local pub & tea room is only short distance to walk. Getting into Scarborough takes about 10 mins in the car. The local chippy is 5 mins away and serves awesome food. My only critique is that the rooms had a few cobwebs. Apart from that White Lodge was spot on.

Lovely private house in an ideal location for our family’s weekend in Scarborough. The only negative was the cleanliness of the house. When we arrived there were laundry bags and rubbish bags left at the back door as we entered the kitchen. Not only the rubbish, which had obviously been left in error by the cleaner, you could tell the bathrooms hadn’t been properly cleaned as the sinks were dirty and there were dusty surfaces alongside unhoovered rooms throughout the property.

Beautiful holiday home. Included everything we needed. We were very comfortable staying here. It would have been good if there was a 2nd tv in property as our teenagers brought their PS5 for the evenings and had nowhere to play it. Garden needs weeding and some TLC but otherwise we were really happy and would stay again.

It is a beautiful house, lovely modern decor, big garden the kids loved playing in, comfortable beds, in a beautiful quiet area, loved that it had a tumble dryer, we loved it

The duvets were a little thick for this time of year , there was some wear at tear on some walls and cobwebs in a few corners, was a little hard to find

This is a fantastic house to stay in. Even for six people, there is loads of room. We were lucky to have great weather so enjoyed sitting out on the patio and the grass, but if the weather is poor, there is a conservatory to use instead as well as the lounge.
The only possible negative is there was absolutely no provisions in the house of any sort, including salt and pepper And just a single tea towel.
But overall, it’s a fantastic place and we will definitely come again

A beautiful home in pretty Scalby- very easy to walk in to Scarborough on the Whitby to Scarborough old rail line path. Some nice pubs in the vicinity.
It was easy to check in and check out.
The biggest negative was that the outside wasn’t very inviting, it was a lovely big garden, but the patio was full of weeds and the grass wasn’t cut, we think it was sadly a waste.
Also there was only 1 sauce pan and 1 frying pan, so not ideal if you’re cooking for a group.

The property was fantastic, roomy, clean and in very good condition. Everyone who stayed were very impressed at what great value for money the property was and would definitely go to this property again.

The wine glasses were too flimsy, we carefully and gently tried drying one glass and unfortunately it broke, so from then on we used a tumbler for the wine. A minor point, however we would suggest more sturdy glasses are obtained to replace the existing ones. As I say this is a very minor point as the property was exceptional in every way.

Lovely spacious home that looked as good as the photos. We stay in Scarborough a lot to visit family and this was good value for all the space and comfort. It could do with some more pots and pans for cooking for 6 people and also a better supply of basics such as dishwasher tablets, dish cloths and tea towels which we had to go out and get. It seems a shame to scrimp on such items when it’s such a lovely home. We’d be happy to return but we’ll just pack a few kitchen basics next time.

We have just come back from a 4-night stay at this property as a family of 5 + a 6-month old baby over Christmas.
We were a little skeptical at first as the property seemed too good to be true for the price (given size and Christmas period) with no reviews on Airbnb, but we decided to risk it and we couldn’t be happier that we did! The house was spotless, and really well-equipped (we managed a full Christmas dinner with the crockery, cutlery and cookware provided). The beds are comfortable and the house has been finished so nicely. It felt like a real treat to be here, which is exactly what we were looking for. It is just a 9 min drive to Scarborough coast also, so comfortably out of the brouhaha but incredibly easy to dip into it. Cannot recommend this property and Host&Stay enough. They were incredibly communicative throughout.
If I was really splitting hairs, the availability a cot on site to avoid bringing one would have just been the cherry on the cake!
