Ideal for a stay in Hornsea, which is a busy little town. A home from home. We would happily stay at Seashells and Hornsea again.

2 minute walk and you were in the town centre. The property is incredibly clean, is lovely and cosy and has everything you could need. Phil, the contact, is really lovely and helpful as well, if you need him. Will definitely stay again. My parents visited for the day and they loved it so much they've booked to stay in May.

Came here with my puppy to avoid the fireworks at home but was dismayed to find a firework display planned in the nearby park. However the lovely people of Hornsea were using silent fireworks, so we had a peaceful night. The flat was clean, with a well equipped kitchen, comfy sofa and bed. Nice tidy little yard accessed from the kitchen to let the dog out. No problem parking. Tea, milk and dog treats on arrival, and owner Phil kept in touch to make sure everything was OK and speedily delivered some missing washing up bits. Plenty of coat hangers, up to date telly, decent sized towels and a lap tray ( not present in a lot of places Iâve stayed) The under staircase cupboard was brilliant for storage of coats, leads and boots. I would have liked a footstool and some info about the bins would be handy but we had everything we needed. I expected road noise and even though there was resurfacing work on the road outside (until 11pm!!) and we could hear the upstairs neighbours at times I had the best nights sleep Iâve had in ages ( must have been all the sea air and walking !! ) The beach and the mere are in walking distance. And the pup loved the many walkies and socialising with all the dogs on the front. Iâve visited this area many times and I love it. Thankyou for another fantastic holiday
