Situated in a quiet lane near the atmospheric ruins of Whitby Abbey, this small but perfectly formed holiday cottage is the ideal destination for two people seeking a romantic retreat. All on one level, this bijou bolthole offers one bedroom and stylish living space where you can take the weight off your feet after a memorable day shopping, dining out, or wandering along the sandy beach – all within half a mile of the front door.

Step inside the open-plan living space and make yourselves comfy on the sofa in front of the ornamental fireplace and Smart TV.

This is my second stay in the last couple of months. It's a great location near the 199 steps for the east pier & for walking along the beach or cliff top to Saltwick Bay, Robin Hood's Bay & Scarborough which I've done many times.

Excellent cottage as its just behind the cobbled Church Street & near the 199 steps which is handy to view the town & harbour. The Abbey, St Marys Church & Cemetery are all worth a visit at the top. The coastal path starts nearby where you can walk down to Robin Hoods Bay & beyond. The cottage is all on one level so no tiresome stairs to climb its Read morejust what you need especially if you are in later life save the walking up steps for the 199. TV & Wi-Fi are excellent, phone reception was better by the front door. Top marks Hide

Lovely place. Small but perfectly formed and in a really great location, right in the heart of the nice bit of Whitby. We had a great few days here and would be very happy to stay again.

Great location for us. Bed very comfortable. Kitchen set up brilliant. Plenty of space for two for our 3 night stay. Felt cold in late evening - we stayed in January. Directions were great but worth mentioning the red gate entrance to the alley. We walked past it twice. Lots of nice pubs and places to eat in easy walking distance.

Excellent location close to the Habour and the Abbey with a historic feel. Shops, pubs and restaurants all within close proximity. Small but comfortable accommodation. Kitchen facilities limited but adequate. Great for a short break and thoroughly enjoyed our first visit to Whitby. However, bear in mind that there is only pedestrian access to the pRead moreroperty so luggage may have to be carried some distance. Also, there is no garden area for your pet to be let out into. This meant an early morning visit to the nearest beach which was pretty close and no great problem but perhaps most suitable for a couple on their own with no pet. Hide

Excellent accommodation, a very nice supply of essentials, i.e. milk, tea, coffee and biscuits. It made for a delightful stay. The only difficulty was the narrow and steep passageways leading to the property. As slightly infirm pensioners, we had slight problems with this but would still recommend the property.
