This charming home retains its original features, such as exposed beams offering an authentic stay in this whimsical coastal town steeped in history. Despite being in the midst of Whitby’s bustling attractions, Quincey Cottage offers a tranquil escape on Ellerby Lane, located just off Church Street at the start of the cobbles, where you are surrounded by independent shops, cosy cafes, and quaint old-world pubs.
Quincey Cottage is named after the owners little black Terrier Quincey, who in turn is named after one of the heroic characters in Bram Stoker’s Dracula!
On the ground floor, you’re welcomed into a beamed ceiling open-plan living area, featuring two comfortable sofas around a cosy gas fire and a dining table perfect for intimate meals. The adjoining kitchen is well-equipped and overlooks a small, enclosed yard with outdoor seating and an outhouse ideal for storing beach gear like paddleboards, and bodyboards – perfect for a short stroll to the beach.

Whitby is a town rich in history and culture. The iconic Whitby Abbey perched high on the cliffs, inspired the setting for Dracula and offers breathtaking views after climbing the famous 199 steps.
The town is also home to the Captain Cook Memorial Museum, celebrating the town’s seafaring heritage, and the whalebone arch, which symbolizes Whitby’s whaling history. The East Side and Old Town have been inspiring visitors, Artists, and writers for over 1500 years and are probably most famously featured in Bram Stoker’s Gothic novel "Dracula". Just imagine being where Stoker immortalized the black hound escaping up the 199 steps from the ship-wrecked Demeter on Tate Hill Sands, all literally on the doorstep of Quincey Cottage Whitby!
Throughout the year, Whitby hosts a variety of unique events, including goth, steampunk, folk, soul, blues, and pirate weekends, as well as the annual Whitby Regatta, making it a vibrant and captivating destination for all.

Absolute gem - not overstating. Property has been skillfully refurbished to a very high standard. Immaculately clean, tasteful decor, excellent facilities. Thoughtful touches throughout. Location simply could not be more ideal. Want to keep this secret to ourselves, but it's only right we share how perfect our stay was! Cannot recommend more highly.
