    Amazing location and wow, the views! We had everything we needed for cooking and cleaning inc dishwasher tablets. Ali our host was very helpful with excellent communication and if anything was missing or needed fixing, Jens would come to the rescue and/or there was always a back up. He’s the chap that also tests the hot tub every single morning so you don’t have to. Follow the rules of the steamer properly too and cover your neck are for it to work properly. It’s fabulously soothing. I would advise to check what’s left over from other holiday makers (cooking oil etc) and then buy your own stuff from the local shops. Also do your research and read the reviews e.g. bring your own loose coffee and dressing gowns. And yes it’s an ancient white low-sloped cottage, I think the only one left on that side of the hill so there are a few steps to get in. For the actual parking and entry address, I would use the YO22 4HD post code for ‘Marsden Place’), look on The Ropery road side and Google street view it. Look for the 3 parking slots - it’s the one in the right out of the three facing the water.

    Fresh milk on arrival would be good, least expected due to price of accommodation. Coffee pods but the coffee machine was for filtered coffee. General up keep of the garden overgrown & outside dirty. Severe steps down to harbour area should be mentioned.

    Comfortable bed. Lovely shower. Great hot tub.

    Bathroom in attic has sloped ceiling and getting in and out of bath was a bit awkward. Rooms would benefit from blackout blinds/curtains.

    Views from hot tub were amazing. Fully serviced each day to ensure working correctly as well. Property also has a travel cot and highchair available as well as a selection of games for little ones.

    The only real complaint was that the window in the downstairs main bedroom didn’t close completely and these made the room very cold . Also we tried putting heating up to help but it must have been set at a certain temperature .

    The property was lovely light airy and modern . The view from the property were stunning . The bed was extremely comfortable .

    few tiny things…literally minor and personal preference no bin bags (not even in the bin) got coffee pods but was no coffee machine just filter machine. no milk on arrival for the money would be nice. need a new hair dryer one was super tiny and kept cutting off. blankets in the living room maybe for extra comfort

    location was perfect, parking space is big, huge hot tub which was perfectly working, with stunning views across Whitby, the house layout was perfect with enough space, super peaceful and clean with the best shower and bed I’ve ever had!!!!!! also luxury linen and towels

    There are a couple of things that could of been better, the first is when you return in the dark the steps in between the gate and hot tub are not lit up, there is light near the gate and lights near the cottage but not over the actual steps and in our party of 5 two tripped and fell but luckily only resulting in a couple of bruises. The other thing is the upstairs bedroom and bathroom, the bedroom is in the loft which is very comfortable but also very low due to the shape of the apex roof which if you don’t bend over when getting in or out you bang your head. You do get used to the bed/bedroom but the bath I couldn’t as it was tucked under the apex roof in the bathroom. I am only 5ft 8 inches but couldn’t sit up at the end of the bath as I kept hitting my head so I had to kneel in the middle which wasn’t easy and trying to stand up was even worse, I tried twice and gave up and ended up using one of the downstairs bedroom en-suite which was inconvenient at times as I accidentally woke up family using that bedroom whilst showering. Overall the cottage is ideal apart from the couple of issues. I would stay there again if only two bedrooms downstairs were needed but if three rooms were needed I wouldn’t unless they installed a full sized shower.

    The cottage was lovely and in a good location. The two bedrooms downstairs were good with the beds being comfortable and both having en-suites. It was clean throughout and the hot tub was large, warm and checked daily. It was well stocked with cooking equipment and had all the appliances. The views over the Esk were wonderful and the living/dining room was spacious.
