Guests say
The Cart House in Whitby is highly praised for its tranquil and picturesque setting, offering a peaceful retreat with stunning views. Guests appreciate the cleanliness, comfort, and dog-friendly environment. The wet room and accessible features are commended, though some minor maintenance issues are noted. The property is well-located for exploring the North York National Park and nearby coastal towns, with welcoming hosts adding to the positive experience.
The property is generally described as very clean, with only a single mention of cobwebs slightly detracting from the overall impression.
The location is consistently lauded for its tranquillity, beautiful views, and proximity to both the dales and seaside towns, making it an ideal base for exploration.
Guests find the accommodation comfortable, with a special mention of the quality of the wet room and the suitability for dogs, contributing to a relaxing stay.
Facilities are generally good, with a well-equipped property and first-class wet room. However, there were issues with the operation of a rise and fall worktop, and the gravel courtyard posed challenges for wheelchair users.
There is no mention of gifts or special thoughtful touches in the reviews, so it is not possible to provide a score for thoughtfulness.

Converted from a former granary, The Granary (ref W41008) occupies the first floor of a detached barn conversion, with views towards Castleton Rigg. Stylish and delightfully furnished, retaining many original features with a vaulted ceiling, low beams and solid oak floors. The Carthouse (ref W41503) is spacious and occupies the ground floor of the detached barn conversion, whilst The Byre (ref W7733) is an attractive single storey, detached property with a multi-fuel stove in the living room, and offers wonderful views over the dale. They are all tastefully furnished and decorated and offer excellent holiday accommodation. Ideally situated in the beautiful North York Moors National Park, a scenic drive along the country roads takes you to the historic port of Whitby. The area abounds with smugglers coves and quaint fishing villages untouched by the passing years. An excellent base for exploring the surrounding area, with the Yorkshire coast and Heartbeat country both easily accessible. Walking is available direct from the door, with fishing and riding nearby. Castleton is 1 mile away with all amenities including supermarket, bank and post office. A magical part of the world at any time of the year.
