Myself my Partner and our two children have just returned from a week stay at Whitby View the house was comfortable clean and modern and in a fantastic location near the centre of Whitby with a lovely view they only things that I would suggest is an iron and ironing board luckily I'd taken my travel iron more space to hang clothing up and maybe better Wi-Fi as during our stay it kept going down for short periods but all in all we had a fantastic week and would definitely go back again

Well equipped throughout and easily usable. Spaceous shower area and good sized bedrooms. Living/Dining and Kitchen areas nicely planned. Really loved the additional blackberry bush out back. Nice views over the harbour. Ovengloves would be useful for the kitchen, as would cleaning fluid, for the shower areas as well. Glass surface protectors tend to blunt knives so a timber chopping board would be benificial. Blinds in the shower areas and at the bottom of the staircase would improve privacy. The garage is a major bonus. It would be improved by clearing out all the stuff in there totally. It was just long enough to fit my Insignia in but didn't leave much width with the bench unit being there, making it difficult to get in and out of. Maybe would allow two cars to be parked in there.

All beds weâre comfortable would have been nice to have an iron ( or maybe we could find it) views were amazing and so close to all amenities. Just a minor things the mixer tap in kitchen was so loose I thought it would fall off and there is a leak on the bathroom downpipe outside so when you use the shower it pours out of the leak onto the kitchen window outside. Nevertheless we enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again xx
