Lovely apartment with all you need for a short break. Clean and bright and lovely welcome pack. Fabulous location. Would stay again if in whitby… if I had to be picky i would suggest a different shower head as it didn't give full coverage and tricky to wash hair…

Nice place good location enjoyed the bank holiday weekend in Whitby . Nice little welcome pack with biscuits & a cake appreciated milk in the fridge as well . Everything was in good order & worked well . little tight with kitchen table with people sat to use fridge make a brew etc . Double bed was a little uncomfortableFor our liking . Also the request to strip the beds before we left & put it in the supplied bag was a little quirky .Had a nice time & the flat served us well bar the bed .
