“The owner has gone to a lot of effort to create a really interesting, creative and playful apartment. With every glance you notice something new. It's a fascinating place to spend a few days and we just wish we could have stayed longer. It is well equipped and the super convenience location means you are just moments away from shops, cafes, restaurants and the beach.”

“Had a great stay at The Artists Pad this weekend! easy check in and great communication throughout. The apartment definitely has the 'wow' factor and I really enjoyed looking around at all the pieces on display. the apartment is well located for the train station and town centre and took us just 5 minutes to walk to the sea front. It was a welcome break during this tough time! Would highly recommend.”
-PAULA, OCTOBER, 2020
Absolutely outstanding apartment. Quirky and unique but with everything you need and more. Ideally located for bars and restaurants and a very short walk to Saltburn beach. Couldn’t recommend it enough, we will definitely be back!
-KAREN, OCTOBER, 202
“The Artist’s Pad is a conveniently located, unique and comfortable apartment in the picturesque town of Saltburn-by-the-sea. It’s on a street boasting a number of bars and restaurants and only a short walk to the promenade with it’s lovely views of the cliffs and Victorian pier.
Inside the apartment it is furnished to the highest of standards with art, photography and pop culture collectibles. The owner has an excellent sense of style. The living room is airy and bright with a smart TV and interesting book collection. The kitchen is a very sociable space to gather with friends and the bedrooms are comfortable. The spacious bathroom has a nice freestanding bathtub and shower cubicle.”

-LINDA, OCTOBER 2019
"Would I recommend The Artist Pad ? 💯 yes I would. The ethos / concept /vision / decor and the home filled with a history of art /music and photography was just the perfect place to stay for anyone who has the creative mind and looking for something with a quirky vibe. Make time to enjoy “TAP” it really is an absolute hidden gem"
-JO, SEPTEMBER 2019
"We had a fantastic stay on August bank holiday weekend with our two children. Love the decor and everything is so spotlessly clean. With everything you could need ready for you. In the perfect location too. Saltburn beach is beautiful and so many other fab places to explore close by in North Yorkshire. The owners are so welcoming and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. We can't wait to come back and stay again. Hopefully for longer next time as my husband is from the area and has relatives to visit close by. So happy to have found such a great place to stay when we visit! The children loved decorating the plate for your plate wall too. Thanks for having us.”
-NIKKI, SEPTEMBER 2019
"This is a fab and fun place to stay. Such comfy beds. Love the decor.”
-RACHEL, SEPTEMBER 2019
"Fantastic apartment in a nice area close to everything in a lovely town. It was like living in somebody's life for a couple of days. We all enjoyed the impressive and interesting decor. I cannot rate this property and ethos high enough.”
-JAMES, SEPTEMBER 2019
“Unique and very stylish property. Colourful, inspiring and uplifting, it made for a real talking point with the abundance of artwork, books and collectables throughout. What's particularly special is this doesn't feel like a holiday property! It doesn't have that sterile, blank canvas feeling of a place with no personality, this property exudes character and no expense has been spared with the furniture, lighting etc. Beds were incredibly comfortable. My only caveat would be that some of the artwork is quite adult in its nature (in terms of language) but this was easily rectified by temporarily relocating some of the pieces! Reason being we have two children who can read and would probably ask what some of the words meant!! The setting is spot on - just a short walk into town and to the coast. Loads of independent shops and cafes to be explored locally, and within easy reach of places such as Whitby and Staithes. Thoroughly recommend and would love to return at some point”
-TIM, AUGUST 2019
"Brilliant place to stay and enjoy beautiful Saltburn and venture into North Yorkshire. Such a fun place to stay as a family with our dog. Saltburn is a gem.”
-RACHEL, AUGUST 2019

-SIMON, AUGUST 2019
"This apartment is bright, beautiful and comfortable. Good location and easy communications.”
-HEATHER, AUGUST 2019
"Quirky interior, super clean, really cosy, fab location along Milton Street, steps away from bars, food, shops, next to train station and 5 -10 mins to sea front, excellent service from the hosts checking all ok during your stay. We were celebrating a family birthday and went for surf lessons, really enjoyed our time and the extra thought, effort and creativity in every nook and cranny of this apartment."
-RACHEL, AUGUST 2019
"A very, very stylish and cool (and interesting!) apartment, but more importantly very clean and well maintained. Really well situated in Saltburn."
-JACQUI, JULY 2019
"The appartment was modern and comfortable with everything you could possibly need - but everything was a bit extra special. Everywhere you looked there was something else to interest you"
-DOREEN, JULY 2019
"What a fantastic place to stay, the décor is uber stylish and the facilities second to none. The property owner left a voicemail & included clear written instructions which i needed after a long trip there. This is the best place I have stayed in. It is 2 mins for shops if you need anything and Saltburn is a lovely town with lots of character and is literally 2 minutes from the coast. Great place to stay either on business or even better for a weekend getaway with nice bars and restaurants close by. SUPERB!!"
-ADRIAN, JULY 2019
"We had such a fantastic stay at The Artists Pad. The space is really unbelievable, and so fun. We kept noticing more and more little stylistic touches! There’s ample amenities at the flat and the location is so central, everything else you need is right on your doorstep. We were really charmed by Saltburn-by-the-Sea too, so would definitely recommend staying here for a little mini break!”
-KATE, JUNE 2019
"Central, amazing comfy beds and a stones throw from the beach - perfect 😎. So much to see and take in within each room- you have to see it in person -loved all the neon- dubious for my 8 yr old but she loved all its quirks.
Thank you for accommodating us”

“Amazing apartment in Saltburn-by-the-Sea, with many little quirks and all the amenities you could ask for. It is in a perfect location for Saltburn beach and pier, as well as the train station for reaching other destinations. I stayed with two friends, but this would also be perfect for couples or families. Ben the property manager is also very friendly and helpful! He checked that we were happy with everything throughout our stay. I would very highly recommend staying here! ”
