Pleasant stay

Located about 2 mins walk from the river and is about a 20 minutes walk into Whitby. The house is quiet and extremely well kept. The kitchen is small but well equipped and fine for a short stay. There are clothes washing facilities on site for a fee. The living area is cosy with a nice electric fire and a comfortable sofa. Unfortunately the advertised swimming pool was closed for the winter when we visited.

Cosy seaside cottage

A comfortable bolt hole perfectly situated for seaside breaks and visiting attractions in the area. Lovely local walks into Ruswarp and Whitby over a dramatic viaduct make it a perfect setting. House is toasty and clean and tidy, thanks for a lovely birthday break!

Very clean and homely feel

We have just returned from a 3 day break and we were very impressed with the cleanliness and overall accommodation. The Captain Cooks Haven site was very good, situated about 25-30 min walk (with a 5 year old in tow) into Whitby and the kids loved the pool. Overall, would recommend if your thinking of visiting Whitby

Excellent property. Very well appointed and very comfortable. Only a few minutes drive from a supermarket and a pub/restaurant, but you would never know it, as the location of the property makes it feel like you are right in the middle of the countryside. Lovely benefit of the pool as well,

Lovely, welcoming cottage

The cottage was perfect for our stay as a family of four. It is beautifully decorated, clean and had everything we needed. The owners had even left us coffee, tea, milk etc which made such a difference. The TV had no signal but that didn't impact our stay as we spent all our time enjoying our surroundings. Town is about 5 minutes drive, if that. Plenty of storageand plug sockets too. Will be returning 🙂
