6 Abbey Terrace

Fantastic property.

Really well cast up for large groups, nicely decorated and comfortable. Great location, nice and close to the town centre.

Beautiful house.

Our second stay here and I think we'll be coming back for more! The location is perfect in relation to the town and also, importantly for us, to the West Cliff where we have a memorial bench for my late husband. The owners are so accommodating, so much space and brilliant for family games nights. Just wonderful!

Booked this house to take my family of 18 as a surprise for my wife's special birthday.

It ticked all boxes for us. It was a cold day when we arrived and the house was really warm when we arrived. Each of the bathrooms had plenty of towels. and the bedrooms and loundes are nicely furnished.There was other nice little touches with the compli.entry welcome pack consisting of special local teas and coffee etc. The owner sorted parking permits from the council at a charge. The house has 3 free parking spaces The house is in a great location.

Perfect for our needs for the weekend, we’ll definitely book again subject to availability, lovely rooms and fantastic communal areas which really helped to make our weekend.

All good very spacious close to everything host very helpful will return

The house was in a good location, with a view of the Abbey from the window seat.

It was near to the beach, with easy access to the town and harbour. It was an ideal property for our group of 14 adults and children. The facilities in the house were good.

We all loved the house and felt at home there.

There's plenty of room, so clean and very well appointed. Whitby is brilliant and the location of the house is so good for getting down into town, to the sea front and beaches. We are hoping to return.

6, Abbey Terrace was perfect for our stay with easy access to town and the beach.

The house was nicely furnished and the beds were very comfortable. The kitchen had great cooking and cleaning facilities (with the two dishwashers) and the dining room was big enough for our party of 13. I'd highly recommend it to any large party!

We booked the property so that we could celebrate our diamond wedding with all our family: the house was ideal.

It was clean, well maintained and ideal for our purpose. We loved the large dining table. We had plenty of individual space and yet the communal sitting rooms allowed us to be together. The house was well situated as well, close enough to the town centre without being right in it.

A lovely home.

The family were very helpful with information and the kind welcome pack. The best weekend with the children from the school that have special needs. Thank you to Renwick family you have a lovely home that we enjoyed and took care of

Had a wonderful week at Abbey Terrace in May 2025 with friends and family for my 50th birthday.

The house is beautiful, spacious, comfortable and so well equipped with everything you could need. Brilliant location, comfy beds, great showers. The large dining room and living rooms were perfect for larger groups. Good communication with the owners too re parking permits etc. Hands down the best holiday house I have stayed in, and would absolutely stay again. Thank you!

Lovely house for a family ranging from 7 to 80 years old.

Lots of room, well equipped and furnished, nice clean decor and comfortable beds. Hostess trolley a bonus when feeding a large group! And buckets and spades in the outhouse for the youngest child made his day.

An amazingly spacious house.

Very well laid out. Everything you need is supplied even towels. When you're packing towel take up so much room. Not all holiday let's do, so this is a good bonus. Would I return? Definitely 10 out of 10! Thank you so much.

Lovely house, beautifully clean and very well equipped.

Instructions were all clear and helpful and the owner was quick to respond to my queries (not many!). The tea/coffee and biscuits there when we arrived were much appreciated, thank you!

Abbey Terrace was everything we had hoped for.

It was decorated beautifully for Christmas and the dining table was plenty big enough for 15 of us with room to spare. All the bedrooms were comfortable and everything was spotlessly clean. Communication with the owner and housekeeper was excellent. We love Whitby and were blessed with lovely weather for the whole week. We will definitely recommend the house to our friends.

Brilliant for large families getting together over holidays.

This property is great, plenty of seating for everyone and everything you needed in the kitchen.

We did not see the housekeeper , in the detail it is 'hoped' they would drop in but we didn't need anything. The departure information was not in the house folder so went by Sykes information. The only things noted were the need of a new toaster and a few light bulbs were not working. Despite these very minor things, the house is amazing, spacious, comfortable, central and we had a great time.

We had a lovely and comfortable stay in this terrace and it was great to have somewhere where a big group of us could all stay together!

The dining room and sitting rooms were perfect for us socialising, everything was clean and the facilities (kitchen appliances and showers) all worked perfectly! Definitely great value for money!

Fantastic accommodation in an excellent location.

Ideal for our party of 15 . Owners were brilliant as we had an issue with the handle on back door and the problem was resolved in no time at all .

Our stay at 6 Abbey Terrace was really good, the place was in an ideal location and was everything we needed, It was spotlessly clean and comfortable, I would recommend it

Fabulous house, had everything we needed, was beautiful and spotless.

Owners were really helpful (I would recommend contacting them directly rather than trying to go through Sykes as they were quite unhelpful but owners resolved our queries immediately!

We absolutely loved our stay.

The location was amazing - would definitely recommend for a large group.

What a great house.

Location was perfect and great for a big group. House was very well equipped.

We are a large group of friends who stayed for a long weekend and the property was lovely.

Excellent central location made it easy to get around Whitby. The property itself was clean and well furnished with a good kitchen, large dining room table that we could all sit together and nice relaxing sitting rooms. Good communication with the owners and wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

We had a fantastic stay.

The house was beautifully decorated for Christmas. The table was perfect for all of us sitting down for Christmas dinner - which was also helped by the heated hostess trolley keeping food warm! The bedrooms were big and beautifully laid out. The house is in a perfect situation with a view of the Abbey from the front door, It is a stones throw from the beach and the town and also there was a Church for midnight mass just at the end of the road! It was the perfect house, in the perfect place and we had a perfect Christmas, thank you!

Just spent a lovely weekend at 6 Abbey Terrace with 11 friends House was clean and tastefully furnished.

Had everything we needed and very comfortable. Great location, short walk into the town and beach. We enjoyed a lovely return 6 mile walk to Sandsend along the beach., stopping off at a lovely cafe for coffee and cake . Host left us lovely Bothams of Whitby tea and biscuits to enjoy and was very efficient responding to emails. We had a great meal at Cosa Nostra (Italian ) and enjoyed take out fish and chips from the famous Magpie Restaurant .

This property is absolutely beautiful, spotlessly clean.

We highly recommend this property.

The pictures do not do this house justice.

So spacious and comfortable. Was great for our weekend away - we didn’t want to leave. The owners are lovely & communication was good. Would definitely book again in the future!

Wonderful house and hard to beat location.

Short stroll to the beach and to all attractions and amenities. This house is beautifully appointed and spotlessly clean. The owners have thought of everything one might need for a multigenerational holiday. ( 2 lounges, large dining room, modern kitchen and updated bathrooms) We were a group of 11 aged 34-70 years. However, we would happily book this house and bring our grandchildren next time.

Fantastic stay at this lovely house , 14 women ranging from ages of 23-75yrs old, we had a great time here !

Everything we needed was in this house and the location was brilliant very close to the centre and shops . Very clean and well maintained , beds were really comfy as was the sitting rooms Could just do with one more recycling bin But would definitely recommend this house for family or friends gathering

Abbey Terrace was a great choice for our large family get together.

The property was very clean and well maintained. Ample space for everyone, with great bedrooms, bathrooms and social areas (large dining room, and 2 large living rooms). All the bed linen and towels were provided which was perfect. The location of the house meant only a short walk down to Whitby town centre. The 2 parking spaces at the back, and additional parking permits which were requested were great (They last 4 days from when you arrive) Really good value, and we all managed to get spaces near the house. We will definitely go back if we plan another family trip to Whitby.

We had a fantastic week at the house.

It’s really spacious allowing our multi-generational family holiday enough room for all to enjoy the holidays. The property was nice and clean. We had a couple of minor issues during the stay, we had a really quick response and the issues were resolved. Our contact Linda was so helpful. It’s our second stay at the house as it’s a brilliant location - just a short stroll to sea or shops. The house is well equipped for cooking and is maintained really well.

Overall we had a lovely stay and we would recommend renting this house for a holiday.

The house was very warm, clean, comfortable and in a brilliant location - what a great place Whitby is, along with surrounding countryside. The welcome bag of local biscuits and cake was much appreciated. Kitchen well equipped and it was great to have two dishwashers. Electricity tripped twice as we had been warned might happen, but it was not difficult to fix. Also door of bathroom between first and second floors was quite noisy to open and close. A small thing - the potato masher was not effective. Perhaps could have more recycling bins. Finally a comment about the back door key - one time two of us couldn't get in through the back door because the key was left in the lock. But when you take the key out of the lock and hang it on the wall it is the other side of the kitchen and not by the back door which is where it needs to be in the event of a fire. So perhaps move the key rack?

We had a lovely extended family Christmas at Abbey Terrace.

The house was as described and as we knew there were a few levels we put the youngest at the top which they loved. The stairs to the top rooms were quite steep but no problem for us. Although there were 16 of us at one time we didn’t feel on top of each other as the house is spacious.The kitchen was very well equipped and we found cooking our Christmas lunch easy with all the pans etc provided. The big table was brilliant for us all to be seated together and the Christmas decorations were lovely. Nigel (the owner) was easy to contact and very helpful . The lovely cakes left for us were a lovely surprise too.

We all loved the property and the facilities provided ensured a lovely, long week-end break for our walking group.

The presentation of the property was superb and the location on the west side of town was ideal for us.

Excellent size house, was great for the 12 adults and 7 children in our family.

We all lived it. So convenient for the beach and amusements.

We are a family of 15 who were celebrating our daughters 50th birthday, the house was pretty central to everything the only drawback was the many flights of stairs & the lounge area up a floor from the kitchen , we put the younger members of the family at the top but the stairs to rooms 4,5& 6 proved challenging, we appreciate it’s the layout of the house

A great trip to Whitby, the property accommodated our party of 15 comfortably.

It was a great base from which to explore the town & the surrounding Moors. Comes highly recommended. Thank you.

Our group of friends had a fantastic time here for the weekend.

What a beautifully kept house and responsive, helpful owners. Lots of bathrooms so no one was on each others toes. We could all (14 of us) come together for meals and games and then comfortably have own space to chill as well. So close to everything, short walk for sea dips both mornings! The house had everything we needed and we were kindly offered permits for the extra parking spaces required (2 provided behind the house), the only downside to the area is finding a spot I would say and that can't be helped. Highly recommend staying here, thanks Nigel and Anna :)

Beautiful house which was perfect for our large family get together.

The house is stylishly furnished and extremely well equipped and it’s in a great position close to both the sea and the town centre. The communication with the hosts was excellent and I would highly recommend this property.

Faultless!

The house was perfect and easily accommodated 16 of us. Our hosts were in regular contact leading up to our stay and again afterwards. The welcome pack was a lovely touch. This place has everything you need for a comfortable stay and the location is just a short walk to the main attractions & the beach.

A 50th birthday holiday for 15 people aged between 11 and 75.

Thoroughly enjoyed by all. Kitchen well stocked with enough space to cook for all. Enormous dining table so all can sit and eat comfortably. Two lounges upstairs meaning teens and parents can be separate in the evenings. All bedrooms very comfortable with nice linens. There are lots and lots of stairs. Location excellent - only a few steps from West Beach and lovely walk down to Sandsend along the beach. We were blessed with blue skies the entire week. All in all a great week.

I’ve stayed in a lot of properties in Whitby, but this has to be my favourite.

From the moment you arrive you’re aware that you’re somewhere special. The large front door leads into a huge hallway which invites you in. Leading of this was the kitchen and dining room, both rooms large. The dining table is larger than some places that I’ve stayed in Whitby. We had a party of 12 and everyone was very impressed with the house and the rooms they stayed in. When we got ready to go out 12 people had baths or showers. I was the last one and the water was still hot! Hopefully won’t be too long before I return!

Loved the house it was just right for 3 families, ideal location and very clean with lots of bathrooms, full kitchen everything we needed, just be aware lots of stairs between floors.

We loved this property.

It was an ideal Xmas house for a large family party. We were all able to participate in preparing Xmas dinner as the kitchen is large and well set out. The house is wonderfully located with easy access to the beach and other Whitby attractions. It has a great view of the Abbey from the front door. The quality of the house added to a great winter holiday in Whitby.

Lovely spacious property, ideal for all our family, made for a great week!

A spacious and well equipped house for a large group in a great location for exploring all that Whitby has to offer!

Overall the property was excellent, as described and the location perfect for our needs.

The only small downsides were a) The internet was very poor (low coverage and strength) and this badly affected the TV services and use of our pc's/phones b) the lower ground floor front bedroom was damp All that said our party had an enjoyable stay and would definitely consider rebooking it in the future

Beautiful house in an amazing location!

Lovely little touches and all the amenities you could need. It was spotless and felt so homely. We had a wonderful weekend exploring Whitby and would love to stay in the house again!

Lovely large terrace house in a great location, close to all amenities & the beach

A lovely house with everything you need for a holiday.

Off road parking is a real bonus. Great location for exploring Whitby and beyond.

We were not able to use the basement bedrooms due to bad smell.

We also found hairs in duvets and in bedsheets! Pros:The location is perfect, short walk to the harbour.

Fabulous house with everything you need in a great location, we all had a great time exploring Whitby during the day and enjoying the house at night.

Our one-week's stay at 6 Abbey Terrace Although we had been warned in advance, more than half our family failed to bring our own towels, which somewhat spoilt our arrival.

We called the house keeper to report that the towel rail in the basement bathroom was not heating, but no action was taken to remedy this, which was disappointing. The sound proofing between the ground floor and the basement needs improving, as wooden floors amplify the noise. On the positive side, the house was spotlessly clean and felt safe. We appreciated the spacious dining-room with the welcome pack, as we did 3 years ago. The kitchen and dishwasher facilities are good for a large self-catering family, as is the availability of crockery and cutlery. On the whole, a positive experience in difficult circumstances.

Convenient for beach and town.

Small problem with leaky WC promptly mended.

The house is superb for a large group holiday.

We only stayed for the weekend but we had everything we needed in the house and with it being only a short walk into Whitby, it was a great location. We never struggled to get parked and having two parking spaces made a huge difference. We really enjoyed ourselves - thank you!

The location was just perfect .

We had a party ranging from 6 months to 71 years (including 2 teenage) and everyone was catered for in the house and very happy. Plus the house was very child friendly which is always a bonus . Would definitely recommend this house and sykescottages

Fabulous location, excellent facilities, speedy to response to questions from both the owner of the property and sykes.

Fantastic location had by all, thank you!

Perfect in all respects.

Location, spacious, well kept, nicely furnished throughout, private parking on premises, and most of all, it feels like home. Thanks from all of us.

Great location.

House is exceptional, perfect location just on the outskirts of town, 3 minute walk.

The property was perfectly located in Whitby.

It was close enough to the shops and pubs so no taxi was needed. The house was beautiful and very well decorated. Everyone had a fantastic time.

Fabulous holiday in a fabulous house.

Pirate weekend in Whitby was brilliant fun and everyone had an amazing time.

Fabulous house.

We had 18 including 3 small boys 2 young girls and 2 teenagers who gathered to celebrate a 50th wedding anniversary. Couldn't have found better or nicer accommodation. Beautifully appointed and in a very good location for beach, restaurants shops and getting out to the moors and other villages. Highly recommended.

The house was just amazing, it’s exactly as described, the pictures don’t do it justice!

The owners were so helpful and friendly. It’s in a perfect location I can’t fault the house at all. We went for my mums 60th birthday surprise, Sge loved it! All my family & friends loved the house too! I would 100% recommend booking here

6 Abbey terrace is a beautiful property.

It is well equipped, in a fabulous location and very spacious.

Great place all the family loved it can't wait to return

Great house plenty of space very clean and a fantastic location would definitely book again

From booking the accommodation through Sykes, to arranging the finer details with the owners, it was a very easy and straightforward process.

The property was beautiful and had real character! Our party thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wish to re-book for next year.

on arrival we were met by the lovely lady caretaker she explained everything clearly and explained about the keys etc , on entering the property we had a lovely tray with a welcome note and biscuits teabags milk which was a lovely touch the house was clean and in a perfect place for us to explore would highly recommend
