We are Ian and Sarra. We love vintage fashion, homeware and furniture and that reflects in our home and holiday cottage. We live with our grown-up daughter and Siamese cat Mungo. We will be contactable before and during your stay via email and mobile phone if you have any questions or issues. We have a local maintenance firm on hand if there are any unexpected issues that need addressing quickly.

The property is located just one minutes walk away from the West Cliff Promenande. Whitby town is a short walk from the house, so you can park up on the two free parking spaces at the front of the house and easily walk to all locations in Whitby. Whitby town has many lovely restaurants, cafes and bars which are open all year round. This is also a great venue to explore further into Noth Yourshire, either along the coast to nearby locations like Robins Hood Bay, Scarborough or Saltburn, or into the heart of the North Yorkshire Moors. Whitby is also the end of the line for the North Yorkshire Railway, where you can catch a steam train right through to Pickering. The local beaches at Whitby and Sandsend (at the other end of Whitby Bay) are stunning, providing plenty of opportunity for beach holiday fun for young children, and surfing for the older and braver visitors. There are also fossils to be found on all the local beaches.
