Nice property for the fit and able. Sadly no parking close to the property and getting the car close to the property was still a long walk back and forth with luggage while parked on the main pedestrian road thought the town. Property living room was very small and not great for comfort.

We had a very nice stay at the house. The location is great, a quiet corner just off the main attractions. Close for everything, railway/bus station, shopping and restaurants. In particular the small garden is a plus on sunny days. The house was very well cleaned when we arrived. Definitely not suitable for wheelchair or small kids, but more spacioRead moreus than we expected from the pictures. There is no dishwasher but otherwise well equipped, incl iron and a ironing board and a good collection of DVDs and books. At the same time there was enough space for our luggage, food etc. Hide

We had a wonderful stay at this cosy, well equipped and clean cottage. The location is perfect right near all the local shops, pubs and restaurants. Our dog enjoyed Tate Hill Beach which is so close to the cottage.

Lovely cottage. Fantastic break. Really amazing location. Cosy and good value with lots of character. Our kids enjoyed the games on the book case and the TV with lots of channels. Great for exploring Whitby, the abbey and church, and trips to Robin Hoods Bay. Would recommend.
