This is our third visit to Alice Cottage in Whitby. We love the location, the views and the cosiness of the old cottage. It feels like a home from home to us. We were overjoyed with the 'new' super comfortable bed in the main bedroom. We can't wait to return.

Lovely autumn stay at Alice Cottage. Really comfortable beds, great heating & hot water, fab views out over the harbour, cosy, tasteful decor and lots of kitchen equipment in a small space, comfy sofa and chairs. A few drawbacks: parking bit tricky - up on the hill behind the cottage, pretty steep climb (imagine it's tough to find a space in high sRead moreummer) plus the cottage is directly above cafe/bar so pretty noisy of a Friday/Saturday evening. Other than that, a lovely place to stay. Hide

Wow what a location and what amazing views over the harbour. Although its right on pier road it was ver peaceful. Loved people watching and watching the boats come in and out of the harbour. Very pretty cottage near the beach for a couple or young family.
