The owners Mandy and Craig have paid great attention to every detail. On arrival the property was spotless. Every room had interesting and quirky features that we kept discovering. The kitchen had every facility you could want and more. In relation to pet friendly it definitely was. There were extra bowls, leads, ID tags and even poo bags! There were throws for the furniture which meant we could relax if our dog went on the sofa .The welcome treasure chest was lovely and very generous. This is defo the best place weâve stayed in by far. Hopefully we will get the chance to return and would recommend this home from home to everyone.

Itâs exceptionally well equipped and it has been beautifully maintained. The owners are very helpful and friendly but not intrusive. We wouldnât hesitate to recommend this property for all the reasons mentioned above plus the added advantage of private and secure parking and central location.

It is very well appointed and is deceptively large. The decor is very contemporary but very good. The owners had put up a lot of Olympic flags and red, white and blue balloons which put us into the Olympic spirit. Its location is perfect - so close to Whitby town centre. The gated parking space was also very welcome. We thoroughly enjoyed our week's holiday and will be back in the future.
