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

This is a really nice place in a quiet spot. The town gets very busy but youre up away from it - yet not much of a walk into the heart of everything. Youre on a hill so be prepared for that, but being up and out of the busiest spot means street parking isnt too hard. Biscuits, tea and milk were provided and very much appreciated, and there are lots of pots and pans - but dont expect to find much in the way of left sauces etc. its definitely byo but theres a CoOp not far away for anything youve forgotten. All in all Id definitely recommend this lovely and comfortable place.
