Treat your small family and four-legged friend to a traditional seaside getaway filled with beach days, arcade games and seafood dinners in Whitby. In the evenings, snuggle up in the homely lounge by the wood burner effect gas fire or dine alfresco in the pretty cottage garden with sea views.

Climb 32 steps to reach the front door of the property and make yourself at home in the comfortable lounge with neutral tones, a soft rug beneath your feet and two plump sofas which sit on either side of the wood burner effect gas fire and SmartTV. Continue into the compact kitchen/diner with a farmhouse-style galley kitchen boasting a washing machine and thoughtfully placed ornaments. After cooking a special meal for your loved ones, dine together at the intimate table with seating for four. On the first and second floor is a family bathroom plus two bedrooms – a double and a twin. Outside is a patio with furniture.

We had a very nice stay at the house. The location is great, a quiet corner just off the main attractions. Close for everything, railway/bus station, shopping and restaurants. In particular the small garden is a plus on sunny days. The house was very well cleaned when we arrived. Definitely not suitable for wheelchair or small kids, but more spacioRead moreus than we expected from the pictures. There is no dishwasher but otherwise well equipped, incl iron and a ironing board and a good collection of DVDs and books. At the same time there was enough space for our luggage, food etc. Hide

We had a wonderful stay at this cosy, well equipped and clean cottage. The location is perfect right near all the local shops, pubs and restaurants. Our dog enjoyed Tate Hill Beach which is so close to the cottage.

Lovely cottage. Clean comfortable everything you need. Lovely garden that gets the sun nearly all day. Right in the middle of Whitby but tucked away and quiet. My 6th time in the cottage and Im sure Ill be back as long as I can climb the steps.

Lovely cottage. Fantastic break. Really amazing location. Cosy and good value with lots of character. Our kids enjoyed the games on the book case and the TV with lots of channels. Great for exploring Whitby, the abbey and church, and trips to Robin Hoods Bay. Would recommend.
