  • Beautifully presented cottage right in the heart of Whitby
  • Enjoy coastal vistas from the comfort of the cottage
  • Relax with friends on the balcony and large roof-top terrace
Property code: OC-W1005

This incredibly stylish cottage offers couples and small groups of friends the perfect sophisticated getaway, centrally located to explore the historic town of Whitby. Guests can enjoy a morning coffee on the private balcony and substantial roof terrace and watch the fishing boats coming ashore or take in views of the abbey. Despite its central location, the property is tucked away in the quiet area of Cliff Street, meaning guests can relax in the peace and quiet after a busy day of exploring. When it comes to visiting the shops and restaurants aligning the twisted cobbled streets of Whitby, the location of this property couldn’t be more perfect. Or, for something a little different, less than half a mile away, is the historic Whitby Abbey where guests can climb the famous 199 steps to enjoy sweeping views across the town and soak up the atmosphere of the place rumoured to have been the inspiration for Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Just under 6 miles away you’ll also find the picturesque fishing village of Robins Hood’s Bay. Famous for its fossil-filled beaches and tales of smugglers shipwrecks and pirates.

This remarkably stylish 3-floor property has everything you need for a sophisticated grownup getaway.  The entrance hall on the ground floor has ample space for storing coats, shoes and bags. From here head into the open-plan living space where you’ll find a modern kitchen equipped with quality appliances for preparing the perfect meal which can be enjoyed at the breakfast bar with seating for four. Sit on the comfortable sofa in the elegantly decorated lounge and unwind with a glass of fizz opposite the large French doors which offer stunning views of Whitby Abbey and the harbour. Stairs from the hallway lead down to a sumptuous double bedroom, with a Smart TV and stylish ensuite bathroom. On a morning open the French doors to the Juliet Balcony where early risers can catch a beautiful sunrise over the harbour. Stairs leading down once again will take you to a further double bedroom which has also been elegantly decorated and comes complete with a Smart TV and stylish en-suite shower room.

Guests can relax outdoors, on the roof terrace or on one of its two balconies, all offering uninterrupted views across Whitby.

We had 4 days at Cliff Cottage - fabulous !!! The accommodation was immaculately clean, with everything we required. The view from the wee balcony off the living area was the best. A great location for exploring Whitby, we will definitely be back.

Spotlesslessly clean and well appointed property. Although the description is accurate, it needs to be borne in mind that it is not possible to park near the property, even to load/unload and bags/cases need to be carried down about 8 steps to the front door and then down stairs inside to the bedrooms. It is perhaps a property for quite fit peopleRead more, bearing in mind that there are no bathroom facilities on the lounge level. Its quite a trek down two flights if youre the one in the lowest bedroom! The property has amazing views over the mouth of the river and the Abbey. A useful parking pass is provided. Hide

We have just returned from this fabulous accommodation which exceeded our expectations. The views are incredible from the two outdoor areas, these can still be enjoyed in colder weather from the large windows. Everything you could need for self catering and comfort is provided and is of a quality standard. The location is within a short walking disRead moretance to the Whitby facilities and free parking is available a few metres from the cottage. Hide

Beautiful cottage in a very central location, with lovely views over to the Abbey. Very well equipped, and decorated. Everything was spotlessly clean and very comfortable, couldn't fault anything. A very generous welcome hamper was also provided full of locally produced items. The only negative is the parking situation, as you would expect being soRead more central, the street is very narrow for unloading luggage, and you need to be very careful when checking the parking zones.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at cliff cottage. There was 4 of us, two couples. It was so lovely, nice and clean with very comfortable beds, beautiful views and only a short walk into the centre of Whitby. We will Definately be coming back to stay again but for longer as 3 nights was not long enough to be in Beautiful Whitby.
