“Cottage was good overall, location is ideal and just big enough for two.”

The bath water was luke-warm and we had to top up with the kettle. No problems with the shower temperature. Wifi was fast once we figured out which network it was. Was disappointed that there was no welcome basket, lots of reviews in the guest books praising how nice it was. We were expecting one as in the description, so had to go out to buy tea, coffee, milk etc. when we arrived.

“This property is brilliant and after a difficult journey from York due to the bus being full, it took 5 hours to get to the destination.”

On opening the door the lovely warm air hit me and as i looked around and found the delicious hamper along with the rest of the superb property, i was more than pleased with my choice. I would choose this let every time, so many, many thanks for a perfect holiday.

S December 2023

“Gavel Cottage was in a lovely location, very quiet but only a few minutes walk from the centre of Whitby.”

It was well furnished, very comfortable and very warm. There was lots of good quality (matching!) crockery and great to have a dishwasher. Suggestions for improvement would be for the Property Information pack to include operating instructions for appliances eg dishwasher, TV, oven and hob - I failed to get the hob to heat up and Yorkshire Holiday Cottages were worse than useless in assisting me (advised me to YouTube a solution!). Also there was no welcome hamper.

Kertrina November 2023

“An excellent little cottage in a great location.”

Fully equipped with anything you needed for you stay. Lovely and clean but I would maybe suggest a better fan system to remove the steam and moisture from the bathroom as it was getting mould and mildew on the ceiling and window area. Just to prevent this and to prevent more work for the owners in future. The fan only worked if the light is as on. X

“Gavel cottage is a little gem, comfortable, well equipped and perfectly situated.”

We were lucky enough to stay when the Abbey was illuminated and the goth festival was on, neither we were aware of before we got to Whitby so that was an extra treat. As others have mentioned we parked the car up (luckily enough right outside the cottage) and that's where it stayed all week as everything you will need is on your doorstep. Lush Coffee in Silver Street does an amazing breakfast, the Quirky Den in Grape Street is a cracking micro pub as is the Arch and Abbey in Skinner Street. Best fish and chips we had were from Angel fisheries, the worst were from Silver Street fisheries just around the corner, although it's handy best avoided in our opinion. We would not hesitate to return to Whitby and Gavel cottage. PS take some binoculars as th view from the front room window is amazing and enhanced with them.

- Mark, October 2023
Caroline October 2023

“The property was immaculate & beautifully decorated & in a great location with a lovely view of the Abbey.”

It was a nice touch & lovely welcome to receive the hamper. All in all a very comfortable stay.

“Perfect except apartment states sea views”

- Karen, September 2023
Angela August 2023

“The Cottage was very nice, clean and of a high standard and very much like the listing photographs.”

One small issue in the bedroom was that the door was sticking and marking the floor - just a little damp but it is making a mess of the wooden flooring. Parking was not an easy thing to manage, although all the details were provided. I would explain this a little more in the listing, along with the number of steps down to the front door path, okay for us but not for the less mobile.

- Angela, August 2023
Raymond June 2023

“Hard to find with all the narrow streets and one way system.”

Once parked near the cottage we never moved the car. Excellent position for discovering Whitby with everything in the property of a good standard. Nice touch with the bag of goodies. Recommend it.

- Raymond, June 2023
Ann May 2023

“This property is clean, comfortable, lovely kitchen, views of the abbey and church over the harbour from the living room, lit up at night.”

Everything we needed was there. It is well placed for public transport, shops and harbour. We did find one space was left where we looked in the W Zone parking provided by scratch card, though it was a bank holiday. However, at busy times, I would think this could be a problem, and therefore we left our car for the week and used public transport. Overall, well worth the 5 stars.

- Ann, May 2023
Karen April 2023

“What a lovely cosy cottage, very warm and welcoming from the moment you walk in the door, very convenient for shops and attractions in whitby no need to use car if you don't want to, All in all we had a wonderfull relaxing week long break and could quite easily have stayed longer.”

- Karen, April 2023
Zoe March 2023

“The property was lovely handy for everything.”

We also enjoyed the welcome pack. We have rebooked for late September

- Zoe, March 2023
Julian March 2023

“Everything was spot on, although the underfloor heating in the bathroom was that hot you couldn’t stand on it with bare feet at times!”

Other than that it was perfect.

- Julian, March 2023
Linda February 2023

“This was a lovely cottage right in the centre of Whitby.”

Bed was really comfortable and lovely bathroom. Parking in the W Zone was not a problem as loads of areas to park.

- Linda, February 2023
Joanne December 2022

“We found the cottage ideal for our short break over the New Year.”

It was conveniently situated within easy reach of the town’s facilities. Being well equipped with essential items is always welcomed when away from home and the cottage did not disappoint. It was a cosy retreat that provided a festive treat for us- thank you!

- Joanne, December 2022
Tim October 2022

“Property well furnished and decorated, plumbing a bit of a mystery [scolding water in the kitchen, often tepid when running a bath].”

A spare key would have been useful, and perhaps the listing could point out that the property and area may not suitable for anyone with mobility issues. Bed very comfortable and the sitting room perfect.

- Tim, October 2022
Martyn September 2022

“What an utterly charming property in a fantastic location.”

We couldn't have wished for better, will come again!

A little gem of a cottage so peaceful and tucked away .

Diane January 2022

“Very disappointed that there is no longer a welcome pack and personal face to face contact with staff, appreciate this is probably due to Covid but think we’ve moved on quite a bit and these things could be re-introduced.”

Very disappointed that we reported the shower 2 years prior to this visit and it had not been fixed, in fact shower was worse this time and water temperature was very variable. Mattress on bed was also very soft (springy) and probably needs changed. Don’t think the beanbag adds anything and merely collects dust. We’ve previously been very happy with Gavel Cottage but feel it no longer meets its 5 star award, perhaps it needs some updating. We’d very much like to come back to Gavel Cottage but unless some things change I think we may have to consider alternatives (cottages or companies).

- Diane, January 2022

Thank you for your feedback. As per the guidance at the time due to covid, the staff from YCC were all working from home, but are always contactable on the number in your booking correspondence emails. The YCC office is now open once again. If you ever have any maintenance issues like you did with the shower, we would hope you would contact us and we would be happy to call a trades person out straight away to fix the problem to ensure you have an enjoyable stay- if we are not informed at the time we are unable to solve the problem for you. We will look into the comments about the mattress. Unfortunately the welcome hampers were stopped across the board when covid started. We have recently carried out audits throughout our properties over the quieter months to start to make any improvements to the properties that may be needed after the wear and tear from such a busy season. We appreciate your feedback and will work on making any improvements. Please keep an eye out in your emails for a personal response and update. Property Owner
Hayley November 2021

“Gavel cottage was a gorgeous and homely property to stay in Whitby.”

It was clean and very pretty, and we arrived to see a surprise Christmas tree and decorations up! The location was central to Whitby, a couple of minutes walk to the seafront. Much appreciated the descriptive email when booking to explain about keys, directions etc and overall was the most enjoyable trip. Thank you for letting is stay! We said we would love to come back.

- Hayley, November 2021
Mark October 2021

“Great holiday and great location.”

- Mark, October 2021
Maggie September 2021

“Although the cottage is well decorated and is only a few minutes walk from restaurants, shops pubs etc, there are several issues that need to be addressed.”

Advertised as having harbour view, not true. Advertised as there being a hamper filled with Yorkshire goodies on arrival, not true. No recycling bin. Also had some maintenance issues that need fixing. Emailed Yorkshire coastal cottages informing them of this.

- Maggie, September 2021

Thank you for your feedback. we appreciate you comments. You have views of Whitby Abbey from the living room window. Hampers are not advertised as they were stopped during Covid but the owner is hoping to re introduce them soon. We have currently carried out a full audit of the property where we are addressing anything that may need attention in the property which is normal after such a busy season Property Owner
Dawn September 2021

“No welcome hamper and no response from you when enquired about this.”

Bathroom was in need of maintenance no hot water in bath and shower leaked onto floor.

- Dawn, September 2021

Thank you for your feedback.. Hampers were stopped due to covid but as things are calming down this property is hoping to reintroduce them soon. Thank you for letting us know about the issues with the bathroom. These have now been addressed Property Owner

“We had a lovely stay, bathroom could do with same work , parking a nightmare”

- Susan, July 2021
Jason July 2021

“The Cottage itself was really nice, everything you could need, however the one downside for me and my wife, the bed was very uncomfortable, leading to us shortening our trip by a couple of days.”

Also previous guests have clearly been feeding the gulls, or rather one inparticular gull who arrived every night at 5.30, so you couldn't open the window.

- Jason, July 2021
Alison May 2021

“Sykes were extremely helpful with navigating the Covid restrictions, and changing our cottage at the last minute when it became clear that our first choice was not going to be able to open, due to a communal entrance.”

There must have been a lot of people with a lot of questions, but I felt that we were looked after very well.

- Alison, May 2021
James September 2020

“The property was excellent but the outside of the property needs some work the gutters are full of grass above the front door and when it rained we had to walk through a puddle about three inches deep not what you want to do when on holiday.”

- James, September 2020
Moira September 2020

“Excellent location, fabulous cottage with all modern amenities.”

We'll definitely come back.

- Moira, September 2020
Glenys August 2020

“Very enjoyable stay cottage in a prime location , would have appreciated an email that there was no welcome pack due to check in time and not knowing the area we may not have been able to get provisions we do understand why but a email would have been helpful !”

as we was prepared and not reliant on it but some guests might have been .Also parking was very difficult and needs addressing as there are not enough places for the holiday lets there and to top it all i had my car damaged also some one else did not a bill you want to come back off holiday with .The holiday cottage was excellent with a wonderful view of the Abby

- Glenys, August 2020
Alison August 2020

“We totally fell in love with Gavel Cottage from the minute we walked through the door.”

It had everything we could possibly need and more for a lovely stay. The only downside to this property was the lack of parking anywhere near the cottage and by the end of the week it was getting a bit tedious driving around trying to find a space.

- Alison, August 2020
Teresa December 2019

“Gavel Cottage was a delight!”

it was perfect for my stay, situated in the heart of Whitby but in a quiet location surrounded by other similar holiday lets. It has been tastefully renovated and furnished, with everything you need to make your stay comfortable, if I was being really picky I would say it was only missing a tray and a couple of egg cups. Ideally situated for walking the beautiful coastline, within easy reach of parking and local amenities.

- Teresa, December 2019

“The location and cosy feeling of Gavel Cottage are absolutely ideal.”

It's very comfortable and the standard of bedding and towels is super and much appreciated. We loved that the cottage had the Christmas tree and decorations in place for our stay.

- McCann Party, Nov 2018
Cheadle Party Nov 2018

“We loved everything about Gavel Cottage.”

Very nicely decorated, modern furnishings and very clean. It is centrally located and only a five minute walk down to the harbour. We ate fish and chips at Hadleys, the other side of the bridge, which we enjoyed. A couple of places we visited were The Seated Man at Castleton Rigg & Helmsley. Would definitely stay again.

- Cheadle Party, Nov 2018

- Fawcett Party, Sep 2018
Barratt Sep 2018

“Lovely welcome pack on arrival!”

A dedicated parking space would have been perfect but well done for alternative options. Great location for all amenities within a very close walk. Very clean and modernised where appropriate. Tastefully renovated to a high standard; a welcome "home from home".

- Barratt, Sep 2018
Julie & Michael Byrne Jul 2018

“We had a superb stay in Whitby, our first visit and somewhere we will definitely be returning.”

The cottage was beautiful to say the least and the location was perfect. We had everything we needed for our 3 night stay. The cottage was spotlessly clean, extremely comfortable and made the whole experience a very pleasurable one. Thank you also for the goody bag we received upon arrival; it was very much appreciated to have a cup of tea and some cake the minute we walked through the door; giving us a chance to find our feet after we had unpacked. Not having been to Whitby before, to arrive in time for the first canon to go off; to welcome the Captain Cook festivities, to have "Northern Soul" festival on our doorstep at The Pavilion was an extra delight and to top it off, we were able to watch England beat Sweden on Saturday, 7 July. Thank you for the fabulous experience and we hope to secure the cottage this time next year; to be confirmed nearer the time.

- Julie & Michael Byrne, Jul 2018

“Fantastic week here leading up to Goth Weekend!”

Enjoyed walk to Robin Hood's Bay, Sandsend (great café!), Runswick Bay and across the Moors. Took the old steam train across the moors - fantastic experience. Brilliant Cottage with great views to the Abbey which was illuminated for Halloween during our stay.

“We have really enjoyed our stay in the beautifully decorated Gavel Cottage.”

We came down from Aberdeenshire for a wedding in Staithes and are happy we chose this as a base for our stay. Very comfortable with our baby boy. Lovely walks, quaint shops and good food - and weather! - what more do we need?! Recommend Harry's for dinner. Thank you for the cosy cottage - just perfect!

Rachel and Dom Aug 2016

“Fantastic stay in this beautifully furnished, quaint cottage.”

It is a wonderful location so you are ready to explore the sights and sounds of Whitby. We enjoyed: * Eating delicious seafood at Greens * Ambling around the cobbled streets of Whitby * Fish and chips from the Magpie Café * A beach and cliff walk at Robin Hood's Bay * The beautiful beach at Sandsend Thank you so much!

- Rachel and Dom, Aug 2016
Paul and Nancy West Aug 2016

“What a beautifully furnished, cosy cottage in a brilliant location.”

We have had a happy, funny first visit to Whitby and enjoyed ourselves very much. Rusty Shears was exceptionally good for tea and cake and the Moon and Sixpence overlooking the harbour was friendly with a good atmosphere and delicious food for an evening meal. We are going home a lot more relaxed than when we arrived!

The O'Neill Family, Sheffield Jun 2015

“We have had a great week here at Gavel Cottage - the first family holiday with our 4 month old.”

The cottage was perfect for a little one, just enough room for three. We enjoyed pottering around Whitby and strolling along the beach including breakfast at Sandside Café at Sandsend and a walk up the 199 steps to visit the church and Whitby Abbey.

- The O'Neill Family, Sheffield, Jun 2015
Jason and Rachel May 2015

“We've had a super weekend.”

Gavel Cottage is in a perfect location for visiting all the wonderful places in Whitby and beyond. We had traditional fish and chips at Hardy's; ate in the Italian Cosa Nostra. The food was excellent and the services was very attentive. The cottage has everything you need. I'm sure we'll be back.

- Jason and Rachel, May 2015
Doug and Han May 2015

“We've had a wonderful week here.”

It's a beautiful cottage that is really well-located. Things we enjoyed doing were - pottering around Whitby, tea, cake kippers and ice cream. Loved Robin Hood's Bay and Staithes. Coastal walks. Sunset on the pier in Whitby. Running in Dalby Forest. Wasting 50p at the 2p slots!
