Situated in the beautiful area of Captain Cook’s Haven, this charming property is perfect for couples seeking a romantic retreat, or for smaller families wanting a relaxing getaway within easy reach of Whitby and the North York Moors. Offering cosy accommodation for up to four guests, the cottage is close to the River Esk and the Larpool Viaduct where you can see steam trains crossing the valley. The centre of Whitby is just 2 miles away, with its beautiful sandy beach, bustling harbour and wide range of great places to eat and drink. Popular attractions in the town include the Dracula Experience, Whalebone Arch, the Captain Cook Memorial Museum and the ruins of Whitby Abbey, accessed via the famous 199 steps.

On entering this bright and welcoming holiday cottage, the porch leads you through to the airy and tastefully furnished lounge/diner which makes a lovely space to relax in. Featuring a TV, plenty of seating and a wood burner-effect electric fire, the light and inviting lounge has large windows and makes a great space to sit back and chat about the day’s events. The dining area to the rear is ideal for enjoying a family meal or a romantic dinner. An archway leads through to the stylishly designed kitchen which has a range of useful equipment so you can prepare all your favourite dishes. Going upstairs, there are two fresh and relaxing bedrooms – a charming double room and a spacious twin room – along with a pleasant family bathroom with a choice of complimentary bath products.

Stepping outside, a sweet patio is enclosed by a fence and features garden furniture, providing a delightful spot for dining alfresco. There’s also a large, shared lawn with a children’s playground and BBQ. G

The cottage is well presented and ideal for getting out to places around Whitby. It is quiet and provided us with a good base to rest and relax.

Lovely little cottage. Very warm and welcoming. Great amenities, location and on site staff. The welcome pack was a nice little touch, with useful information on where to go in the local area. Would definitely visit again.

What a hidden gem. Stunning location on a quiet and welcoming complex. Right under the Larpool Viaduct. The cottage had everything you needed to make it a real home from home. Hot shower. Really comfy mattress. Cosy as. Watched the ducks and squirrels as we ate our meals. The swimming pool was an added bonus and swam there every day. You do have toRead more pay 20 a week but it was worth every penny as at times it was just us two. And I'm sure it costs lots to heat. Easy access to all beauty spots. Whitby (Try the Magpie cafe), Whitby Abbey and brewery, Scarborough, the Cinder track, the steam trains, Staithes and Robin Hoods Bay. Just fabulous. A large Sainsburys is a 5 min drive. Aldi too. We highly recommend staying in this beautiful cosy cottage. Hide

The location is perfectand plenty of walks from the cottage and great having a laundry on site. In the Picture you said enclosed garden that it why we chose it and when we arrived it was not enclosed only a bench set and a couple of fencing panels so the picture was incorrect. also it was stated that is was a king size bed which it was not.
