“We have just stayed at Harbour View for a long weekend.”

Easy to find, had no problem with parking, just a few minutes walk away. It's a good work out taking the bags up the steep slope from the car to the cottage, not a problem for us though! In a good location not far from the town, and a couple of nice pub's on the way to stop at. The cottage is lovely and clean, well equipped with everything you need. I brought my cleaning sprays and cloths with me, I didn't need them. Beds are comfy. Could do with a brighter light in the bathroom for when ...

Easy to find, had no problem with parking, just a few minutes walk away. It's a good work out taking the bags up the steep slope from the car to the cottage, not a problem for us though! In a good location not far from the town, and a couple of nice pub's on the way to stop at. The cottage is lovely and clean, well equipped with everything you need. I brought my cleaning sprays and cloths with me, I didn't need them. Beds are comfy. Could do with a brighter light in the bathroom for when doing makeup. I was a bit disappointed with the court yard for the dogs, I read and thought it was a private yard, the access is shared with the house next-door, but we never seen them. Couldn't really let the dog's roam outside as you have to leave the front door open as it's the only access to the house, no back door. That was the only down fall for us. All in all we had an enjoyable stay, great location, close to where we could walk the dogs and let them off for a run.

“We really enjoyed our stay in Whitby, the cottage was lovely and had everything we needed.”

The location was excellent just a short work into the town. We managed to find free parking just a minutes walk away. The guide which was in the cottage had lots of useful information in about the local area.

“We loved our stay in Whitby.”

The cottage was lovely and clean, with everything we needed. It's a steep walk up to it but expected in Whitby as it's very hilly! Communication was great and we'd 100% stay again. Thanks so much!
