  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 wasn’t 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 isn’t uncommon for Whitby but I think it should be listed on the listing as it wasn’t easy unloading our stuff parked on double yellows on the side street and we wasn’t 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 couldn’t 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.

  We had a lovely stay at Lemonade Cottage.

  The distance and locality to Whitby Town was great and we had a very comfortable stay, in a brilliantly equipped property. The only points we'd make were how firm the mattress was. We had to fold multiple duvets on top of the mattress in order to get a semi good sleep, but had to turn lots. I have a chronic pain condition and it was a struggle for me, so bare this in mind if you're not one for a very firm mattress. On our last day, an adjoining property which had 1 allocated space, had 3 cars of people turn up blocking others spaces, as other people around us showed up, they took our allocated space so we struggled to find a spot to park and made turning in the small courtyard very difficult. We would definitely recommend Lemonade Cottage and would consider booking again for ourselves. The owner was very friendly, and helpful and the welcome gifts were a very kind gesture.

  What a fabulous place, the cottage was excellent had everything you needed.

  Warm, comfortable lounge with log burner, large kitchen fully equipped. We had the en-suite bedroom, the bed was so comfortable and had a lovely hot shower. Our daughter, son-In-law and Grandaughter’s also enjoyed their stay. It is situated in a lovely peaceful, spot overlooking the countryside. We enjoyed watching the birds on the feeder and watching the black grouse flying around the cottage. One sat on the top of our car the grandkids loved it!! We also had the pleasure of sitting outside with a cup of tea on New Years Day. Took some great photos of the sunset too. We would throughly recommend cottage. Thanks again Linda and Neil Corfield and The Hobbs Family.

  Lovely place.

  Fab location. Whitby parking isn’t the best but always a way round things I guess!! Stylish yet cosy cottage, very clean. Loved it and would definitely return. Could maybe do with a stair gate to keep doggies from going up there. Mine is used to going upstairs so I had to use a piece of wood I found in the under stairs cupboard to block off the stairs to prevent him making himself too at home!! Also bit of a lack of mirrors in the bedrooms but that’s just a small gripe. I struggled with the heating so made do with the gas fire as it turned chilly of an evening. Maybe I’m just a bit dim though ha!! Thank you for a lovely stay. Thoroughly enjoyed it :)

  We had a fantastic stay and loved the cottage.

  The only little thing that would have improved our stay would have been some information about the fire. We are not experts in lighting fires and a little diagram and some basic instructions would have helped, eg how to open vents and which vents did what. Everything else was amazing. The detailed instructions on how to find the cottage meant we got there without any issues. The cottage itself had everything we needed. Unfortunately we couldn't find the bags to put the linen in so apologies we stripped the beds and left it in the rooms. We had a great visit and would certainly recommend.
