The location is peaceful / scenic and less than 2 mile from the centre of Whitby.

You are overlooked from the rear of the property if you are outside but that isn't a real issue

Lovely cottage,& clean.Parking (a necessity for us) Private, Pretty Floral back garden. Comfy bed, & clean,new looking mattress. Lovely view at front, with seating. Swimming pool very handy.

Need a Couple of Fans, too hot, inside cottage. Bathroom sink Problem.Plug Doesn't Work.& sink of water ran out before you'd finished using it, Every Time. If you don't want a shower. The water pressure of cold tap a nuisance, noisy, & Bursts Out, & ran over bowl onto the floor.(Will Be worse for children & us older people with hand & wrist weakness). Noisy toilet flush, heard when people up in night. Not always for a wee. Front bedroom door Very Noisy (bed time) & up in night for Loo,several times). Latch hard to use, to close,hard to strain into shut position.Latch Fitted Wrongly. A struggle for us older people,who Prefer a closed door for Privacy.Swimming Pool Showers, No Hot water. (Especially for long hair,womens). Had to go back to cottage & reshower every time we'd been. Five times. So in all 5x2 we Unnecessary showers using cottage's electricity. For Two of us women. Some costly adjustments & some tweeks needed maybe? Money is tight these days. I do understand. Thanks Ms McSweeney.

It was a lovely vottage with everything we needed for our stay.. The location by the river and close to the cinder track was perfect. The tea and coffee in tge kitchen was a nice extra.

There was nothing that impac5ed on our stay but a shelf in the bathroom to put things on would have been useful for a longer stay. The kitchen is very compact so a chopping board that could be placed over the sink would have created a but more preparation space.

Lovely setting (when we eventually found it). The owner was very helpful giving us directions.

The hill down to the cottage, as my husband has walking difficulties.

Some shortcomings in cleaning, ie doors dusty +++ and dusty artificial plants The postcode took us to a closed road very difficult to navigate to alternative route. Need a note on direction details re road closure on postcode address.
