A great place, but it is very, very noisy as it is in central Whitby near pubs and an insanely large and talkative seagull population and the cottage has no double glazing!
(Please bear in mind we have plenty of seaside holidays and are quite happy to hear seagulls. However, the seagull population of an active fishing harbour with a fair few of them on your roof most nights, they do not appear to sleep even at 4am lol, is a very different matter and is where double glazing is a marvellous modern invention!) The pub down the road has a regular karaoke night and you can name the songs to give you some idea of how the noise carries into the house! The beds are also quite creaky as they are metal framed beds, although they are very comfortable. We went and bought some ear plugs in the end! Having said all that, once you get used to the noise and have your ear plugs it is a lovely, clean and spacious place to stay, it's convenient for Whitby, has a lovely coffee shop on the corner and we were really excited to book again for next year to stay again. Its worth noting for anyone with mobility difficulties that the kitchen, living room and 2 bedrooms are each on separate floors, and the top bedroom/ attic is nice and cosy but if you have mobility difficulties you might find it a little tight to get in and out of bed. With regards to parking, you can only park on the street outside for an hour if you have a parking disk; you cannot buy a parking ticket for this area, so you will need someone to sit in the car or pop a note in the car window to tell the (very active and prompt traffic wardens) that you have popped in to get your parking disk (on the coffee table in the cottage on the first floor when you get in) to pop it in the car before you start unloading. You can park on the street for free from 7pm - 9am. There is also a car park behind the Poundland. This requires paying from 9am - 6pm. This is a short stay car park and you can only buy a 6 hour parking ticket from this ticket machine, so not enough for a whole day. It is worth noting however that parking tickets you buy can be used in any Scarborough car park, and the long stay car parks are on the sea front (West Cliff) and Whitby Abbey. We saw quite a few parking tickets being given out so it is worthwhile planning your parking if you are planning on staying in the town for the day. The place was lovely and clean and spacious. We would have happily booked again but the price for next year is far, far too high for this sort of property given the noise, that there is no outdoor space and the amount you will pay for parking - almost £800 for a week and not even in the school holidays!! Over £200 more than what we have just paid for exactly the same week!!!! So we will not be booking for next year and will find somewhere else in the Whitby area. Quite frankly that kind of hiking up of prices just sends customers elsewhere so it's pretty pointless, I'm very disappointed to see prices hiked up like that, this is a nice place but not a luxury property that commands that kind of money at all. Lost customer!!!!

Thank you for a wonderful stay in our favourite Whitby.
Itâs been our 4th holiday to Whitby and the cottage itself was my favourite property that we have stayed in. We loved how it was tucked away but still right in the centre. The location was perfect. We loved how many of the original features remained and have been well looked after. Each room was cosy, spotlessly clean and inviting. A few tweaks that we felt could have made this perfect⦠The shower screen could do with an upgrade. The suction at the bottom that holds the screen in place is too loose and any slight movement causes it to come away leaving the bathroom floor very wet and the bathroom window only stays open if you use something to prop it up. Iâm not sure who is in charge of the alleyway and courtyard but it could do with a little TLC. Whilst I appreciate this is nothing to do with the property itself, it could do with a tidy up and a good sweep which will make the property even more appealing. The bedrooms were very specious, the main bedroom on the 1st floor had beautiful high ceilings which made it very light and airy but the mattress wasnât the comfiest. It felt quite thin. The room on the top floor was perfect for the kids. The slanted roof did make the space around the bed awkward but the kids were fine so itâs definitely better for kids up there. Lastly there is no Wi-Fi in the property. Which is fine if you have an unlimited data package but if you donât then you may struggle. All in all we had a wonderful stay and even looking to book the same property again next year. Thank you.

We had a great stay at Ellerby lane house.
The positives were great location, lovely decor, very homely. The cleanliness was very good. The negatives were the beds were very hard so quite uncomfortable, there was no mirrors in the bedrooms so doing make up was a bit of a struggle. The property capacity is for 7 people but there wasnât 7 plates or 7 sets of cutlery as we were there for Christmas and was cooking Christmas dinner in the property we had to go and buy some as there was no contact number provided for the owners for if we needed anything. There is also no parking at the property which isnât uncommon for Whitby but I think it should be listed on the listing as it wasnât easy unloading our stuff parked on double yellows on the side street and we wasnât given any instructions prior, I had to call Sykes cottages to contact the owners to see where we could unload. It was also a little noisy at night time if you were trying to sleep and could hear people heading back from the pub, again not a major issue but the location is very central so could be a little noisy if you plan on taking babies etc. The toilet seat was also broken in the main bathroom and some of the blinds were broken so couldnât be opened. There is also no exterior bins for the property so as you can imagine being Christmas we had a lot of rubbish which we had to bag up and pile up near the entrance of the property for it to be collected by the owners. Besides all that it is a lovely place to stay, very cosy and the location really is perfect for exploring Whitby.

The holiday cottage is fabulous, great location and really well equipped.
Only one complaint about the actual property being the bed mattress in both bedrooms is soooo uncomfortable. We tested both and in the end used the second duvet as a mattress topper, but still had sore hips and a bad back all week! There is a lot of flights of stars in the cottage, so you need to be pretty mobile to stay here. Our big complaint is that the property is advertised as having parking! Parking should mean having access to a dedicated parking space 24/7. This is why we chose this cottage. Be warned this cottage has NO parking! A permit is provided to park for 1 hour to load...if you can get a space. A scratch card provided allows you to park for 3 hours only, over half a mile away, again only if you can get a space! Obviously on Goth Weekend these are full, and unless you want to spend your whole holiday watching the clock and moving your car around town, you will need to find somewhere you can park unrestricted, Be prepared to walk a long way, never need access to your car, and never need to move it as you will loose the spot! This cottage should not be advertised as having parking, it is misrepresented. It has none, and should be advertised as such. It is a shame because the cottage itself is lovely, despite the uncomfortable beds!

Comfortable, clean and well appointed especially the kitchen & lounge.
Fabulous for amenities. Great example of historical âlivingâ. * Parking is a major issue with an immediate parking bay (zone H), scratch card marked zone W & a disc but the map is pale and with limited info and NO info on disabled parking badges. No info on public car parks. A huge stressor for me. * Visitor info pack (VIP) no info on how to change bath to shower tap - turning it simply took it off in my hand, luckily my partner reinstated it. VIP was a rather disheveled booklet & could do with refreshing. * Bedroom acoustic attenuation very poor with creaking floor (loft) disturbing occupant below and lack of a door causing light & noise disturbance from below to occupant of loft bedroom. * Canât turn 1st floor landing light off from loft bed/top of loft stairs. * At 5â2â I could only get out of 1 side of the loft bed & even then had to bob my head under the rafter. I cannot see how 2 adults could get in & out of that bed without head injury. A framed metal bed made it harder to get around - it would be better to have the 1st floor divan bed there. * Rather romantic referring to loft dressing table as lighting poor. * Had to hang dresses in the 1st floor bedroom as insufficient height of hanging in loft bedroom.
