    “We had a lovely stay from 10 Aug to 15 Aug in this beautiful little cottage.”

    We appreciate most of all that it is fully equipped for self catering. All we needed to cook were available and my family loves home cooked meals so it is very important for us. The location is perfect for us because we explored the nearby dog friendly beaches of Runswick and Robin Hood's Bay. Parking was a challenge because we came during the Regatta weekend but my husband easily found spots to park uphill when no parking was available on Church St. We loved that it was near The Fleece Pub ...

    We appreciate most of all that it is fully equipped for self catering. All we needed to cook were available and my family loves home cooked meals so it is very important for us. The location is perfect for us because we explored the nearby dog friendly beaches of Runswick and Robin Hood's Bay. Parking was a challenge because we came during the Regatta weekend but my husband easily found spots to park uphill when no parking was available on Church St. We loved that it was near The Fleece Pub which we frequented during our stay. We cannot fault the cottage and may it stay as beautiful as it was during out time there. One to go back to definitely. It was very clean and fresh. Hopefully we put it back nice enough when we left. It was a perfect place for our first time to go on holiday with our 16 month old Hungarian Wirehaired Vizsla. He settled in very well although the first night my huband slept downstairs with him to honour the owner's request not to allow pets upstairs or on furniture (fair request). After the first night, our dog didn't even try to go upstairs anymore and settled on its own downstairs. We used the dining chairs to block the staircase just in case, which proved very effective. Thank you again and hopefully we can come back in the future!

About the location

WHITBY

Robin Hood's Bay 5.5 miles; Scarborough 19.3 miles; Pickering 23 miles; Guisborough 21.5 miles.

The seaside town and port of Whitby lies at the mouth of the River Esk in the Scarborough district of North Yorkshire. Ideally situated for exploring this beautiful part of Yorkshire, the local area hosts an array of activities so you can be sure to get the best out of both the countryside and the coast. From the nearby North York Moors to its Blue Flag beaches, there's something here for everyone. Amongst its many attractions, Whitby holds a charming atmosphere, home to winding streets and hidden alleys, where you can find a wide selection of eateries and shops scattered amongst them. Take a trip to the picturesque harbour and lighthouse to watch the sun set or get involved in some whale watching or a coastal cruise to watch the creatures up close. Climb the famous 199 steps to the Whitby Abbey to immerse yourself with history, or visit the Captain Cook Memorial Museum presenting historical and ethnographic exhibition about Cook himself. Close to the Robin Hood's Bay, rich in heritage, wonders and scenic spots, and in easy reach of the bustling towns of Scarborough and Middlesbrough, Whitby is a prime location for exploring all of the delights that Yorkshire has to offer.
