Fabulous accommodation we had 3 adults and 2 children so just perfect for us but can easily accommodate 2 more without overcrowding. Beds super comfy. Had pretty much everything you need to self cater. Needed to wash some items before use but no big deal. Lovely and spacious lounge. The kids appreciated the toys and games. Parking is good right outside Aldi and Sainsbury’s a 5 min drive away It’s a good location. Park and ride into Whitby about 5 min drive away and most other attractions an hour to hour half away. Recommend the fish and chips from Papas. A must visit is Robin Hoods bay if your fit and able to get down the steep hill to the rock pools.

Absolutely loved the cottage. Plenty of room for the grandchildren to play. Enough space that nobody felt onto of one another. Beautiful kitchen with every thing you could need.Comfy beds slept like angels.Only issue is the outside bins not big enough when eight people in cottage and bind emptied alternate weeks. Maybe invest in extra bins from council or larger ones if possible.
