There were some little things that might be improved e.. G. a glass in the bathroom so you can rinse your mouth out when teeth washing.

Spire View is a very comfortable flat, with everything needed for a short break.. Excellent location close to the High Street, local shops and the North York Moors Railway. We stayed the week before Christmas and the town was very pretty with lights and decorations - the view up to the Church Spire would be special at any time. Pickering is a good base for exploring the Moors and provides easy access to Scarborough, Whitby and interesting market towns such as Malton. Parking appeared a bit tight but was never a problem.

Second visit to this property will certainly be booking it again in the future meets all our requirements..

Chairs are very uncomfortable and shower very noisy

Mr Maclellan, August 2019

Tide mark and some staining in WC which should have been removed.. This was reported on arrival to a member of staff in the gift shop below who said they would advise "Helen" As no one appeared in the hours after our arrival, my husband cleaned the toilet. There were a number of small rubbish bins in the flat without any liners. The bin in the kitchen was miniscule for a kitchen, so completely inadequate. The flat lacks ventilation and depends on windows being left open, which is not always practical. That said the flat was in a wonderful location, well equipped and comfortable and we had an enjoyable holiday.

This was our second visit to Spire View, a cosy comfortable flat, an ideal location for exploring North Yorkshire and just 100 meters from the Heritage Steam Railway.. Unfortunately I noted that the owner has still not attended to the sash windows which I (and several other people) commented on in the Summer - they need new sashes - the windows are likely to pinch fingers when trying to open them so we spent a week without airing the flat. Also, on a domestic note, it would be useful to have larger plates for serving up dinner (or perhaps we are just greedy eaters!) and it would be useful to have some pirex dishes or similar for heating food in the microwave or cooking in the oven. We like cosy winter nights at home on holiday so I cook on holiday but perhaps other people don't!

Great location

July 2018

Comfortable apartment, excellent location for travelling on the steam train and exploring the local area by bus or car.. Pickering is an interesting town to stay in and we enjoyed our stay. The only problem encountered with the apartment was opening and closing the old sash windows - the weights are not working on the sashes. We talked with the owner who is aware of the problem and is waiting for a time when the apartment is not occupied to remedy the problem. We would recommend Spire View as a good choice to stay and also the owner showed us Station View (the apartment next door to ours) which was slightly bigger and more modern that also looked to be an excellent place to stay. Also we were a bit concerned about parking - we were the only occupant of one the two apartments and we have quite a large estate Volvo car which was difficult to manoeuver in the small car park and it probably would have been even more difficult if the other parking space had been taken. Car park looks large in the picture in the property details but it was really small!!!

Only that the accommodation is up two flights of stairs, 30 in all and not very practical if anyone who is infirm.. For us we was exactly what we wanted and situation couldn't have been better.
