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.

The cottage overall was decorated beautifully and very well equipped. It was very clean and perfect for a family holiday walking distance into Whitby. The only problem we had (which is nothing to do with the cottage itself) was the parking. We did struggle to park near the cottage but that seems to be the general theme in that area overall.

Thank you for a lovely time. The house is certainly immaculate - everything so lovely and very comfortable. We could recommend the house to anyone. For us it was our first viist to Whitby
