This accommodation is clean, bright and airy and has everything you need for a holiday. The location is peaceful and about 10 minutes walk to the harbour. The shower is great; instant hot water, consistent water pressure and stylish.There is no allocated parking, but we didn't find this to be a problem - we always managed to park nearby. We stayed there in September ( after the schools returned) and found it to be excellent value for money.

Agree wholeheartedley with all the other reviews. Plenty of essentials for washing up and toiletries. Didn`t need to bring anything at all. Comfortable bed and lounge seating. The host was very helpfull with local knowledge. we`ve been going to whitby for more years than I care to remember but still learned from her. Be sure to ask her about the short cuts to the Buses in and out of town.

What an absolutely fabulous Air B & B, The place had absolutely everything you could wish for. Exceptionally clean and beautifully presented just a short walk from Whitby harbour and the rest of its attractions. On arrival we were treated to fresh milk in the fridge with a very nice pack of biscuits and tea and cofee making items. Nice touches like this go a very long way. The bed was very comfy, we slept very well and the shower was to die for, very refreshing together with the added bonus of fresh towels and under floor heating in the bathroom. There was also plenty of cuttlery, crockery and cooking utensils everything you could need to make it a home from home. All in all a fantastic place to stay and we would not hesitate to come back or recommend to friends and family. Thank you Eileen, we will defo be back again soon. Ivan & Marion
