Property code: OC-M30865

Let the steam trains rumble past this charming railway cottage, a perfect destination to stay on the edge of Whitby's town centre. Far enough away to enjoy a quiet, peaceful night’s sleep, yet close enough to be within walking distance of the beach (1 mile), this property promises to tick all kinds of boxes for holidaymaking groups. A home-from-home filled with welcoming features, the reverse-level property sleeps four guests. You can look forward to memory-making mornings and evenings together in between days of Yorkshire adventure, exploring the coastline and the vast North York Moors that stretch out behind the town.

Oak floorboards, white walls, and clean, simple decor add to the bright, airy vibe of this two-storey house. The ground floor houses the property’s bedrooms and a refreshing shower room with a sleek walk-in shower. The bedrooms are laid out as a spacious double and a twin, perfect for restful nights. Upstairs, an open-plan living space with a lounge, kitchen, and dining area provides everything you need for resting and recharging. Switch on the Smart TV and choose a show on Sky or Netflix, gently drifting off after a long day of adventure. Back downstairs, exit via the master bedroom to reach a patio space with views of Whitby Abbey in the distance. There’s a private parking space for one car.

The Abbey is one such attraction you must see while staying here – take the 199 Steps (1 mile) up to it and admire the far-reaching views from the top. You’ve got a choice of two sandy beaches to enjoy when the sun shines, and the town boasts some of the best fish and chips in Yorkshire when it’s time to refuel. For walking and cycling, the Cleveland Way offers a long-distance route along the coastline, while the Cinder Track provides an easy-to-follow cycle path leading all the way to Scarborough (18 miles).

A lovely modern, comfortable property. It is in the perfect location for families with its own parking and outdoor area, but still in super easy walking distance from the main attractions of Whitby. It has a lovely view across the tracks, water and across to the Abby. The property is very bright and comfortable, with a good sized living area, with Read moreevery thing you need, including lots of hangers! A great sized fridge freezer and washing machine and drier (I used this several times so there was very little to do we we returned home...bonus!). A very good sized shower with very good pressure (something I always feel is important!). Some great recommendations in the trip pack included and a selection of games and books to make use of. Holiday Cottages were also great too, very quick to come out when we had a small issue and it was sorted right away with excellent customer service. I would recommend using this company as well as staying in this lovely property. Hide

The location is fabulous, only a short walk into Whitby itself. The parking is a god send. The equipment in the cottage was very good. More than youd get in a lot of places.

Location was great for the harbour in Whitby and we were constantly looking out the windows at the heritage railway. It was well equipped and comfortable enough for the 4 of us....3 adults and one child. Only issue was with the cleanliness of the downstairs bathroom where we found stale urine down the side of the loo that was making the downstairs Read morearea smell. Hide
