Lovely cosy and comfortable cottage - equipped with everything you would need. Very well located with a short walk into the centre of Whitby with all it has to offer. No negatives at all - one small observation - we struggled to synch the sky remote control with the TV sometimes so some instructions would have been good but otherwise everything was perfect - I would definitely book again

Beautiful cottage in a great location

The cottage was immaculate. It was a real home from home. The location was ideal, literally a ten minute walk into the town centre. We are already planning another stay. Thank you
