Previous Customer,

Lovely, comfy, cosy cottage. Location excellent for exploring Whitby and surrounding areas

Mrs R,

This cottage felt so special. It's been lovingly restored to It's current condition. So beautiful and steeper in history and character. We were lucky enough to be staying over New Year and the place was decorated so beautifully. Picture perfect. Felt like we were in the movie 'The Holiday'. It's a wonderful gem of a place to stay. Amazing welcome pack from the owners of wine and cheese and cake, we were honestly blown away. Location amazing. Just had such a memorable time. Sitting in front of the fire with wine and cheese. Holiday heaven. Perfect wee place. Would 100% recommend and return.

Mrs H,

We completely loved this gorgeous little cottage! So much so .... we've already booked it again for next year!

Miss B,

This is the second time we have stayed in the property, both occasions were very enjoyable. The property is beautiful and situated in a fab location. We had a slight issue with the shower, on contacting the owner it was rectified immediately and we were given a complimentary bottle of wine. We will definately book Bagdale Cottage again.

Miss S,

Beautiful cottage extremely clean and tidy. Location is very central and please expect street noise accordingly.

Mrs C,

Thank you for the lovely cottage & relaxing stay! We've had a fabulous time!

Past Customer,

Such a lovely cottage, well equipped and fantastic Christmas tree so cosy. Hopefully will return soon

Past Customer,

We have had the most enjoyable stay here in this cottage.

Past Customer,

Lovely cottage in a really good location. We had a great time in Whitby. Thank you

Past Customer,

THE COTTAGE IS FABULOUS. THE LOCATION IS UNFORTUNATE, SET BELOW A BUSY ROAD AND ONLY SIX FEET AWAY. ALSO IMMEDIATELY BEHIND A BUSY /NOISY PUB. MAIN PROBLEM IS THAT PARKING IS A NIGHTMARE !!

Mr Steve S,

Bagdale Cottage is an ideal property for a holiday. It has everything you need and the location is ideal. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Mrs Linda B,

This property suited our needs perfectly as we were able to use this as a central base to see all the areas we needed in and around North Yorkshire.

Previous Customer,

This was our second visit to Bagdale cottage. We’ve also spent time at other properties over the years booked via Ingrid Flute. Have always been very pleased with places we’ve stayed at. One thing I’d suggest is with properties like Bagdale that have a wood burner, an option to pay for an added extra to have wood included. We got caught out as the COOP sold out and then started stocking BBQ Charcoal. Just suggesting during winter months.

Mrs Leigh C,

We were thoroughly delighted with our stay in Whitby and Bagdale Cottage. Thank you

Mrs Isobel G,

Location

Whitby
Whitby is a popular choice for visitors all year round. It is well known for its long sandy beach and delicious seafood. The river Esk flows through the town to the sea and cottages are perched on the hills on each side, with cobbled streets and historic yards providing a maze of places to explore. The town has a fantastic mix of modern shops and services, traditional stores and boutique shops. Whitby jet continues to be made into beautiful jewellery and sold in a number of shops.  There are plenty of excellent restaurants which serve local fish and seafood, as well as a wonderful choice of cafes and tearooms.

The ruins of Whitby Abbey stand dominantly on the clifftop and can be reached by climbing the 199 steps from the old town. The Abbey is said to have been the inspiration for Bram Stoker's novel Count Dracula, and its gothic splendour is the perfect place from which to take in some truly stunning views over the town, harbour and coastline. Whitby harbour is steeped in history and visitors can see where British explorer Captain James Cook first worked as an apprentice before setting sail and discovering Australia. A statue of this great explorer stands proudly above the town, along with some huge whalebones, a sign of the town's maritime history. The harbour is a buzz of activity and you can enjoy early mornings watching the fishing boats come ashore before getting first choice of their catch of the day.

There's always something happening throughout the town, with festivals and fairs are held throughout the year. These include Whitby Folk Week and the Whitby Regatta, and there are two popular Goth festivals each year.
