Guests that stayed at this property said

There is no specific mention of cleanliness in the reviews, so it is not possible to provide an accurate score.

The location is highly praised for its great views and convenience, with everything needed close by.

The beds are mentioned as very comfortable, and the property is suitable for guests with mobility issues, indicating a high level of comfort.

Facilities are generally good, but some maintenance issues like a broken toilet seat and door lock have been reported, though they were promptly fixed.

The provision of a telescope for guests to enjoy the views shows thoughtfulness. No gifts are mentioned, and such personal touches are not guaranteed.

About this property

Nestled in the heart of the thriving coastal town of Whitby in North Yorkshire is Tuksumdoin. This fabulous, reverse-level holiday home benefits from a spacious and contemporary interior completed by two ground-floor bedrooms, a wonderful, first-floor, open-plan living space with spectacular views of the abbey and sea and a fantastic setting close to local amenities, the town’s endless attractions and North York Moors National Park; the perfect choice for families, friends or couples looking to explore North Yorkshire. After a day full of exploration, cross the threshold into your new home-from-home and travel to the first floor where an open-plan living space greets you, unwind on the plush sofas in front of the electric flame-effect fire and watch on as the designated chef of the group gets acquainted with the fully-equipped kitchen. Dine together at the coffee table which converts into a dining table, allowing you to enjoy dinner with an unbeatable view across the town to the North Sea and the beautiful Whitby Abbey. When the evening draws to a close, travel downstairs to wash off the day in the bathroom before sloping off to sleep in either the king-size or twin bedroom. During the day meander the charming streets of Whitby which are lined by independent shops and quirky boutiques as well as local stores where you can stock up on your essentials and pubs and bars ideal for those seeking vibrant nightlife or a delicious meal. Wander down to the water’s edge where you can sample the town’s famous fish and chips before embarking on a challenging stroll up the 199 steps which offers breath-taking views across the North Sea; once here you can also see St Mary’s Church and the iconic ruins of Whitby Abbey. Experience the coast from a unique perspective by hopping on a boat tour on the open water with a chance to spot seals, dolphins and whales! The North York Moors National Park is also easily accessible and houses the Cleveland Way and Cinder Track, both are ideal for keen ramblers or cyclists and make the most of the beautiful countryside and coast. All this and more awaits at Tuksumdoin.

The Scarborough district of North Yorkshire is home to the coastal resort and port of Whitby, which is located near the mouth of the River Esk. The surrounding area offers a wide variety of things to do, making it the perfect base from which to discover this stunning region of Yorkshire. There's something for everyone in this area, from the North York Moors to the Blue Flag beaches. Whitby is known for several things, one of which is its attractive ambiance, which is characterised by its many little streets and tucked-away alleys, which are home to a large variety of restaurants and stores. Visit the scenic harbour and lighthouse to take in the sunset, or go whale watching or on a coastal cruise to get up up and personal with these majestic creatures. Visit the Captain Cook Memorial Museum, which features a historical and ethnographic exhibits on Cook himself, and the renowned 199 steps leading up to Whitby Abbey to immerse yourself in history. With its proximity to Robin Hood's Bay, wealth of history, wonders, and picturesque sites, and proximity to the thriving cities of Scarborough and Middlesbrough, Whitby is well situated for experiencing everything that Yorkshire has to offer.

    Like too many holiday flats, let down by silly little penny pinching. For example, no ladle, faulty scissors, useless peeler, too small pans, casserole. Dining table impossible to manipulate into a coffee table. But overall, good value for money.

    We arrived on a busy Saturday afternoon and couldn't find any parking so left the car in a carpark overnight. There was no problem finding a space on the Sunday morning and the scratch card system worked well Kind regards Carol Francis

    My partner has poor mobility issues for walking distances, it was great for him. We enjoyed the touch of the telescope and sat watching the waves over the harbour walls. Would love to be able to book again. All I can say is fantastic
