Guests say
The Old Stables in Whitby is a well-regarded cottage, praised for its central location, parking convenience, and overall comfort. Guests appreciate the proximity to local amenities, the beach, and the beautiful surrounding countryside. The property is described as a 'home from home', clean, and well-equipped, making it a popular choice for return visits.
The majority of guests found the property clean and tidy, with lovely clean beds and well-maintained spaces. One mention of a used plaster suggests a minor oversight, but overall, the cleanliness is highly rated.
The location is consistently praised for being central, with easy access to shops, restaurants, the beach, and stunning countryside. The uphill return from the beach is noted, but the convenience of the location is a highlight for many.
Guests find the property comfortable, with a spacious ground floor bathroom and a relaxing outdoor space. However, some guests mention uncomfortable sofas and beds, particularly the single beds and the downstairs bedroom mattress.
The property is well-equipped with a kitchen and parking for two cars. Some guests suggest improvements in shower pressure and the provision of a cafetiere. There are also comments about small and thin bath towels and the need for better pots and pans.
There are no specific mentions of gifts or special thoughtful touches provided by the hosts, so it is not possible to provide a score in this category.

Lovely accommodation, nicely decorated and furnished. Lovely clean beds with toppers and mattress protectors. Very handy for the town and West cliff. Parking is a bonus, and the dog loved the beach further along the coast.
