Well done Nick and Hannah, Our stay in your cottage was perfect. We will definitely stay again. I have been visiting Whitby for over 40 years, so I know my fave pubs and Restaurants. I advised you that you might consider an information folder, for people who have not visited before, so that pubs, cafes and restaurants can be considered. I really enjoyed my chats with you both. You were both so helpful. I wish you every success with your 5 star property. Alison and the Sheffield walking crew. X
