The cottage did not smell fresh and had a very noticeable stale, foisty smell. The living room was very small and felt cramped for 4 people. We were told by the owner the previous guests had broken the drain and the wash basin in the bedroom could not be used. However, I don’t understand why the cleaner could not empty the sink instead of leaving it full of water. We also noticed several cobwebs in the hall/landing areas. Also very well located the cottage is in real need of some tlc and a general clean and freshen.

The host responded to my inquiries promptly. The amenities of the property need to be improved. There was no coffee maker so I had to go out and purchase one that I left there. There were no extra blankets and it was cold so I purchased a fleece throw that I also left there. There were no ice cube trays and I could not find any in town. The lighting needs to be improved, there are two lamps total in the entire place. I had to bring a lamp from one of the bedrooms to the bedroom where I was sleeping. I was left one hand towel one very small bath towel, one washcloth and two dish towels for a 4 week stay. I purchased a towel and a washcloth and left them there.

Stayed for 3 nights. The location is excellent, has everything in the cottage that I needed. We had fish and chips on the first night was great to see salt and vinegar already at the property. I was a bit worried about the parking situation but I needn’t have been, it was easy to unload the car then drive and park at the main car park. Our first time in Whitby-we will def return, thought it was fab.

Position of cottage is excellent The access yard is off putting dirty bins cigarette ends Cottage was not cleaned to extra covid requirements The bed linen was very tired i.e not crisp cotton sheets Wardrobe in twin room doors do not work a mixed selection of broken hangers do not look good Off putting to locate the fridge in a cupboard with mops and brushes Kitchen was not well equipped with exposed pipes under boiler Just a bit of attention to detail would alter our opinion of Cockle cottage The character and position in beautiful Whitby of Cockle cottage was spoiled by these points
