The park and ride bus terminal located just down the road is a huge benefit, we used it every day. Our thoughts on the outdoor space allocated for visitors, this would benefit from some tlc, just a general tidy up with maybe some flower planters to provide a splash of colour and give the area a more appealing feel. We thoroughly enjoyed our short break at this cottage.

Mark was very welcoming and made sure we knew that he was around if we needed him. The cottage is lovely, very clean with everything you will need and very very comfy beds. Not to mention the view of the stars at night! We will be coming back very soon. If youâre wanting to visit Whitby this cottage is the way to do it!
