Saltburn-by-the-Sea Land of Iron Hotels

"Wow - we were blown away by this feast for the eyes! I fully appreciate that the decor at the hotel won’t appeal to everyone (art is after all subjective) but, as a photographer myself and with my art loving husband, we found our two night stay here to be a fitting and beautiful end to our three week tour of the North! In addition to the decor we had a comfy bed, great food (they really looked after my coeliac requirements) and the staff were wonderful. We love Saltburn so of course knew the surrounding area would be amazing as always but this hotel made our stay perfect. There is literally something new to see everywhere you look! Giraffes in the dining room, swans and flamingoes on the walls with a huge bear to greet you on arrival and quirky wallpaper. Loved the whole stay!"

"The flat is in a good spot and is well decorated and airy but there was no dining table for a family of five so we had to eat our dinners off our laps and as there were only 2 small sofas, one of us had to sit on the floor. The main bedroom did not have a curtain or shutters and looked out to the high street so although the bed was comfy, we woke up at dawn every day. The bunk bed was squeaky and inadequate for our teens. The kitchen was big and airy but didn’t have a chopping board and no washing machine which is a bit remiss. The inner front door at the top of the stairs wasn’t attached to the hinges properly which was probs a bit dangerous. We were given a code to the yard downstairs which clearly upsets the man who lives there (he was in a bit of a rage) and should not be used imo… It wasn’t a complete write off as the village is incredibly friendly and has lots of pubs. The owners were very communicative before the hols but not very helpful re: curtains etc after we got there…We tend to adapt to things like this quite well but no tables and not enough chairs was a bit of a pain tbh"

"A wonderfully presented, clean and comfortable stay was had at The Railway cottage. The facilites were very good and extra touches such as blackout material avaliable to use was very useful in a heat wave. The cottage is in a good location for travelling to tourist spots. We found the matresses uncomfortable as they are very soft but this is just personal preference. I would also agree with other reviews that the backyard needs some attention and could do with a tidy up. It can be noisy as the property is on a main road with train track and steel works behind it, however we got used to the noise and slept well. It's great to be able to cook some of your own meals at the cottage as there arent many places locally to eat, within walking distance. Its also great to have a washing machine. Overall we would recommend a stay at this cosy cottage."

"AVOID AT ALL COSTS Overall a really horrible stay. From dirty linen to really poor communication it was not a great stay. I definitely do NOT recommend. Holes on the wall, damaged furniture, a dirty sock on the floor, beds not made, smoking alarm coming off the ceiling, dirty linen, no toilet paper… Contact with the host as also been appalling. Been trying to resolve this situation and still waiting on a solution so AVOID! "

"Lovely cottage, very well equipped kitchen, only downside check out was a little too early but fabulous stay "

"Very good decor is lovely"
