Whitby is a town that offers something a little different to your ‘typical’ coastal resort. Famous for its connections to Bram Stoker’s Dracula, Whitby has always embraced its Gothic culture and you can climb the 199 steps on the East Cliff to visit the Abbey Ruins. Whitby town has old and historic streets, where in the past seafarers and smugglers have roamed, and you will walk on the ornate cobbled paths, which has locally-owned shops and quirky cafes that give Whitby its intriguing yet welcoming atmosphere. Being by the sea, you’ll also get to enjoy classic seaside fun and food with locally caught crab, scampi fish and lobster as well as building sandcastles on the beach and walks along the pier. Whitby is also a place for Explorers, with its connection to the famous voyager, Captain James Cook. The great man is immortalised in a monument up on West Cliff, where he can be seen looking out to his favourite place, the sea.

Step into the hallway, hang your coat and leave behind your walking boots. Head into the kitchen and dining area where there is a large captain’s table for eight guests to dine with your family or friends. The well-equipped kitchen is a delight to cook in and offers an electric double oven, a further oven which is also a microwave, electric hob, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and a washing machine. Come together around the table for breakfast and plan the day ahead. Later, after dinner, wander through the double doors to the lounge, take a seat on the two comfy leather sofas, and chair, and watch the Smart TV or listen to some music. Open the door to the patio and garden and extend your space in the warm balmy summer evenings. Completing the ground floor is a separate WC. When it's time to turn in, head upstairs to bed, each room has space for clothes storage. The master bedroom offers a super-king-size bed with an en-suite shower room and WC. The second bedroom has a king-size bed, the third bedroom has a double bed with drawers and hanging space and the fourth bedroom is a bunk bedroom, suitable for children and teenagers, with an additional single pull-out bed/mattress. Completing the accommodation is a bathroom with shower over bath and WC.

Outside there is an enclosed patio and lawn with artificial grass, relax on the outdoor seating whilst enjoying a BBQ or have a soak in the hot tub, this is a wonderful place to enjoy summer evenings and dining alfresco. There is off-road parking for two.

A newly built house on the edge of a development which was quiet. A supermarket only 5 minutes walk away was very convenient! It was 1 mile to Whitby, a downhill walk, going right past The Whitby Museum which is well worth visiting. It took us 33 minutes to walk to the Abbey. Plenty of cafes and restaurants in Whitby and good access to visit placesRead more further afield. Hide

We really enjoyed everything about the house, comfortable beds, fully equipped in the kitchen, games if you didnt bring your own and clean. Not too far away from the centre but someone with mobility issues may struggle. Perfect location for Sneaton Castle, which is beautiful.

Wow!! This is one gorgeous cottage in Whitby with the added bonus of parking for two cars. The cottage is about a 25min walk into Whitby. The is a spar and Lidl 5mins away for all essentials. The cottage itself was great for the 7 of us, 4 adults and 3 kids, lots of room to chill and the garden gets the sun all day and is a real sun trap. All beds Read morewere super comfy and everything felt luxurious. We loved every second and cant wait to return!! Thank you Debra for an amazing holiday xx Hide

The Captain's House was a lovely modern house with good size rooms and great enclosed garden for kids. We loved our stay here. It is a great location to explore Whitby and the surrounding area. The owner was friendly and helpful in giving some tips on how to get to town and the beach and good places to eat. We would definitely recommend staying herRead moree. Hide
