Albion Cottage - Whitby

Location comfy beds cosy cottage clean

The beds were so comfortable and the cottage was clean and fully equipped. The hosts left a complimentary tray of goodies for us and our little dog was welcomed and catered for with a bed and doggie blankets. Communication with our host was excellent, particularly with regards to parking. The location was really close to Whitby town centre.

It was perfect for us, the stairs are narrow and steep and could present a problem for small children.

Communication with Richard (owner) from start to end was really detailed and timely, making the whole stay really easy and straight forward. We had a fantastic stay at Albion cottage, with our cockapoo. The home itself was so quaint, really well decorated and just stunning in every room. Would not be suitable for anyone unable to manage stairs as there are quite a few of them, and quite steep between floors. Albion cottage had everything we needed for our stay and on arrival we were met with a lovely selection of snacks. Fantastic location for exploring Whitby and the surrounding areas. The living room was cosy, the bed comfy, great water pressure and heat in the shower, and plenty of information and instructions to answer any query. Would highly recommend anyone considering this as an option for Whitby. We were really grateful for the added detail for our cockapoo, with a bed downstairs and blankets in the living room. Being able to have our dog stay was a huge positive for us, and as Whitby was so dog friendly we loved it here.

The only small fault we could mention was the difficulty finding a car parking spot after the first night. We visited on Easter weekend so we were expecting the area to be busier than probably usual, and with this, potential difficulties parking. We were able to find a spot to park each night so it wasn't a huge issue, but did mean we were driving around for some time or parking further away than we would have liked. Richard informed us of the parking restrictions and areas beforehand which was helpful.

Owner was supposed to meet us which he didnt` he gave us details for a key safe. No parking at all near the cottage had to park on Marina away from the cottage. Stairs given it is an old cottage are no good and vert steep. If you are over 6ft you will difinately struggle to accesss top bedroom due to stairs narrowing at the top and are dangerous coming down. Not a place for the infirm or young children.

Twisting stairs and lack of deignated parking.
