We had a lovely relaxing staying in Fatamorgana flat, probably one of the cleanest properties we have ever stayed in, lovely views and lovely and warm heating, parking permit for carpark just behind the flat, having stayed in Whitby before this was the best accommodation we have stayed in so far, we spent a lot of time in the flat due to my husband's health issues and were really pleased to find it had a good smart tv we took our own Roku stick to plug in which meant we could access our programmes with ease, played games that were provided and I read a couple of the books, alot of thought has obviously gone into the property and we will definitely be back

Absolutely loved this beautiful 2nd floor apartment.Spotlessly clean on arrival with clear instructions how to gain access to the property. Parking is close by on Westcliff car park and a permit is provided, although it wasn’t needed for us as parking is free until March. The apartment is well laid out and contains everything that you’ll need (loved the jar of sweets and biscuits - much appreciated) Situated on Westcliff which is just far enough away to be quiet at night but within easy access to the town centre (bear in mind the walk back up to Westcliff can be a little steep so good walking shoes are recommended). I would totally recommend this apartment and will definitely be back.Also would like to give a big thumbs up to Cottages.com as we had a slight issue with the heating on arrival but it was sorted it out while we went out for tea and it was toasty and warm by the time we returned.
