Location very central to Whitby town centre , approximately 5 minute walk , perfect for exploring . The only minor issue was the front door was hard to lock but apart from that lovely home

Two small repairs could be done, the cold cock in the main bathroom was leaking and the light for shaver did not work. Heating valves do not work correctly. The owner could save energy costs. Otherwise all fine as usual.
