Everything was clean with all that we needed. Superb location within the town with the added bonus of garage parking. Would definitely recommend & would stay again on next trip to Whitby.

The apartment is beautiful, comfortable and well equipped. The location of the Engine Sheds is excellent - a short walk to shops, restaurants and beautiful Whitby. Also it is a 5 minute walk to the bus station and of course the railway station. The underground, secure parking is so convenient.

They drop a quarter due to all 6 pillows being as hard as rock to the point were we bought 4 pillows after the first nights sleep. We realise this is subjective but an assortment of hard/soft pillows would cover every need. That said we would book again in a heart beat and recommend the Engine sheds to all. A super holiday in a perfect location.
