This is a lovely house and only a few minutes walk to the centre of Whitby. It is at the top of a short but very steep hill though and there is no outside space other than a small table and 2 chairs at the front of the house.

Lovely week in a great cottage. A real home from home. Beds really comfortable, lovely bed linen. Everything you could possibly need. A real home from home. Nice touch to have some Prosecco, cereals and milk on arrival. Parking was an issue. But would definitely stay again. We had a great stay.

The cottage is beautifully decorated and has everything you could possibly need. It is the second time I've stayed here and would definitely return. It is a short walk down a steep hill into the town centre, which is perefct, unless you have walking problems,

Lovely, comfortable terraced house. Well stocked kitchen, plenty of seating and a generous table for dining. Beautifully decorated, accessorized and clean so very relaxing. And a big bonus was the efficiency of the heating for our February stay.

Lovely cottage, beautifully decorated , close to harbour although up a very steep hill. Parking was on road and finding a space was near impossible although it was regatta weekend so may be easier at ogher times.
