Harbour Reach is a beautifully set out two bedroomed cottage which sleeps four in the delightful town of Whitby on the North York Moors. The owners have taken a great deal of care to make this cottage perfect for your holiday with special touches like the black and white pictures of iconic sites in Whitby.  There is an open plan living/dining and kitchen area, just right for a small family to be together after a day in the moors or great for friends to enjoy each other’s company whilst preparing a tasty dinner from local Yorkshire fayre or to sit and relax in front of the large smart TV and watch a favourite film.  Go through the French windows into the garden and enjoy the sun while sharing a meal on the table and chairs provided. Upstairs you will find two comfortable bedrooms, both with an ensuite. Harbour Reach is only two minutes stroll to a grassy walk to the open areas on the top of the cliffs and the sea.  The property is located within three minutes’ drive of Whitby.  Here you will find a beach complete with donkey rides in the summer and some of the best fossil hunting in the country.  Captain James Cook was an apprentice here in Whitby before he sailed off and discovered Australia.

A lovely, modern clean house with comfy beds and a small secure rear garden. The house was spotless throughout, kitchen well equipped and the welcome pack with yummy goodies was a lovely touch. Both bedrooms have an en-suite which was a great added bonus and there is also a cloakroom off the hall. The house is situated on a small estate away frRead moreom the hustle and bustle of Whitby but only about a 20/25 minute stroll to the centre (depending how fast you walk). Would definitely stay here again. Hide

Just returned home from 3 nights at Harbour Reach. The place is a gem. There is everything you could need. The ensuite bathrooms are a great idea. Cleanliness is a high standard, the decor has a wow factor. Having a driveway is a bonus. Easy walk to Whitby town. We will definitely return.
