    “Well equipped holiday cottage an ideal base for exploring Whitby and the local area.”

    Ideal as you can either walk or catch the train to Whitby. Secure garden was great for our two dogs. Shower was powerful, water was plentiful and hot, heating could be adjusted easily on site. Accommodation sleeps 6 however we just used the main bedroom on the second floor. The linen/ duvet/pillows were good quality and bed was comfortable however there was a distinct dip in the middle of it. In the lounge was seating I would say comfortable for 3 or 4 at a push. I think you would struggle ...

    Ideal as you can either walk or catch the train to Whitby. Secure garden was great for our two dogs. Shower was powerful, water was plentiful and hot, heating could be adjusted easily on site. Accommodation sleeps 6 however we just used the main bedroom on the second floor. The linen/ duvet/pillows were good quality and bed was comfortable however there was a distinct dip in the middle of it. In the lounge was seating I would say comfortable for 3 or 4 at a push. I think you would struggle to fit 5 adults on the small sofa and chair or 2 adults and teenagers / young adults. The main sofa wasn't comfortable at all. The base and back was very hard. When you can potentially spend a bit of time inside, due to bad weather, a comfy couch would be better. The cottage as described, is on a main road. Yes it is noisy, however it's also on a bad bend. The road is supposed to be 20 mph going past however cars flew along the road. This made even stopping and unloading outside very dangerous ( also double yellows) we had to carry things up and down the road to the car, and had to make sure the dogs were on really tight short leads when we stepped outside the gate as the footpath was very narrow as the cars flew past. These are just small things that wouldn't have stopped me from booking my stay, however good to know before arrival. I would stay again as the accommodation and location on a whole was great and ideal for us 2 and the 2 dogs.

    Thank you very much for your review, and this helpful feedback. Yes guests should be aware the parking space is a short walk from the property as there isn’t parking directly outside. The cottage allows bookings for up to 5 (there is an additional truckle bed in the smallest room which might be ok for children but we don’t count it in the overall size), so potential guests please be aware of party size. We’re glad the dogs enjoyed the garden and would be very happy to welcome you again! Property Owner

About the location

RUSWARP

Whitby 1.5 miles; Sandsend 2.5 miles, Robin Hood's Bay 6 miles.

Situated just 1.5 miles inland from Whitby, the small village of Ruswarp lies on the River Esk, with old stone cottages lining the main street. Ruswarp has excellent amenities, including a local pub with hand-pulled real ales, a village shop and a renowned local butcher. The Esk Valley Walk runs through the village, and it is an easy 25 minute walk to the centre of Whitby. Ruswarp has a regular bus service, and the single track railway has regular steam trains running through! Enjoy an hour’s boating on the river, or feed the local ducks. Arguably the most historic landmark in Ruswarp is the brick-built viaduct. It once supported the main Scarborough to Whitby line. The viaduct is 120 feet high and when it was built it took more than five million bricks to complete. The viaduct was closed in 1965. The viaduct is now known as the cinder track, a walk/cycleway along the former Whitby-to-Scarborough railway line. A perfect location for exploring the surrounding coastline and the dramatic North York Moors.
