Whitby Cottages

The Great British seaside holiday is alive and well in Whitby. This gem of a town on the Yorkshire coast naturally blends sandy beaches, arcades and ice creams with a rich literary and maritime history. An enduringly popular holiday spot, the town and nearby area offer lots of options when it comes to choosing a holiday cottage.

Reasons to Holiday in Whitby

Whitby Abbey

Perhaps most famous for its connection to Dracula by Bram Stoker, the author who had visited Whitby some years prior was inspired to set scenes from the novel in the town, including the famous 199 steps which lead up to the ruins of the gothic Abbey. Today the Abbey is a big tourist draw owing to the challenging walk up the steps, the views of the town and harbour from the top and the museum and visitors centre that goes beyond vampires to delve into the Viking and Saxon history of the town.

Beaches

Whitby Beach is a large, family-friendly beach complete with donkey rides in the summer. There are also dual concrete piers, with a lighthouse at the end of each which form the mouth of the harbour. These can be walked along but are not your typical pleasure pier complete with arcades and attractions. Those are adjacent the harbour and are also the place to sign up and jump aboard numerous different types of boat tour. Further west is Sandsend Beach, a lovely golden beach complete with a small coastal village, a great place to explore. Follow the Cleveland way east, and you'll reach Saltwick Bay. This small bay is quieter than Whitby and Sandsend but great for a more secluded beach day out.

Where to Stay in Whitby

Whitby is much more than just a tourist town and is worth a visit at any time of the year. Whether you like the bracing air of Christmas and New Year by the sea or the balmy English summer, we can help.

From traditional fisherman's cottages with sea views to grander detached houses away from the hustle and bustle we are sure to have a self catering property in Whitby to suit you.

A: Whitby is our most popular destination in North Yorkshire, closely followed by Scarborough and Richmond according to our booking data.

Q. What is the average price for a holiday cottage in Whitby?

A: Our recent booking data tells us that on average people pay £48 per person per a night to stay in Whitby. Though we offer properties at a range of price points and costs do vary at different times of the year.

Q. Is Whitby a popular place for family holidays?

A: Families obviously love Whitby, as it is our most popular family destination in North Yorkshire. With the beaches, arcades, piers and boat rides on offer, we're not all that surprised.

Q. Is Whitby a good place to take your dog on holiday?

A: Although you will find plenty of dog-friendly establishments and walking routes in and around Whitby, it is less popular than Scarborough for those who take their pets on holiday with them.

Q. When should I book to get the best deal on a holiday cottage in Whitby?

A: Holiday cottage pricing works based on supply and demand, so booking early always gives you a good choice of price and availability, though we can tell you that our average booker locks in their accommodation 40 days before they come, so any date before should offer a decent amount of choice at a fair price.

What our customers say about their holidays

  • Mrs Allan - Verified booking

    A lovely property. Well equipped and nicely furnished. A lovely hamper was there on our arrival, which was a nice touch. Its only has a small kitchen if there's a large group of people needing access. Good location for access to the town and shops but it is very noisy as it is right beside the main road on a crossroads where the A171 meets the A174 with very busy traffic. It was hot when we were there, and so we needed the windows open, which obviously allowed the road noise to be heard even more. Outside seating area was poor. Only 4 chairs and no table. So if there's a party of more than 4 there's not seating for everyone. Also, it's very noisy with the traffic going backwards and forwards. There was only 1 key in the 'key lock box' to gain access to the property. It would have been useful to have 2. ( when there's a large group of people occupying the property )

  • Mrs Bagshawe - Verified booking

    A beautiful gem of a property right in the heart of Whitby with gorgeous views on all levels overlooking the harbour and Abbey. Close proximity to the town and amenities, but still peaceful and calm. Plenty of homely additions to settle in whilst staying, as well as secure outdoor space that also makes the most of the beautiful view. Clear instructions and guides on how to get round and make the most of Whitby and the surrounding area, and overall very clean and welcoming. Would definitely recommend and book again if coming back to the area. However, it's best to be clear that some with accessibility issues may struggle with some aspects of this property/location. The parking may be tricky, there is a long stay car park just a few short minutes walk up a steep hill/stairs that costs just under £10 for 24 hours. The house is also over three levels with very steep stairs.

  • Jan - Verified booking

    After telephoning the owner to find out how the dated tv set worked, he said he had tried to contact us to advise there was no hot water apart from the shower.

    This meant boiling a kettle to wash hands after using the loo and to wash up. He never arranged any repair during our brief stay. The lavatory leaks and the cistern is faulty with haphazard results when flushing . Sometime the water stops . At other times there is a continual flow of water and the cistern noisily keeps trying to refill. The shower door handle was filthy and there was mould on the clothes airer in the shower room as well on the woodwork. The kitchen is not easy to prepare a meal in as the limited space is cluttered with ornaments and two microwaves. The bed is really only suitable for one person as if the loo is required during the night, one person has to climb over the other. The front door has a letter box without any back flap and so a draught comes through unless it is physically blocked.

  • Mrs Jackie Fraser - Verified booking

    Fantastic central property with a very home from home feel about it. Very spacious compared to others we have stayed in and really appreciated the lovely garden retreat at the back. Should be a 5 star Property! Whitby has it all and is our favourite seaside destination in Britain - Great shops the pavilion for entertainment buses to other lovely destinations such as Robins Hood Bay Staithes Eden Camp the moors. Loved the steam train journey to Pickering. Fantastic pubs and restaurants and would like to recommend the Duke of York and the Fisherman's Wife in particular. Can't rate Whitby or Yorkshire highly enough. We will be back next year. Friendly helpful knowledgeable staff.

  • Mrs Samantha Ellis - Verified booking

    Thankyou very much. We had a lovely stay- however, on arrival we noticed there was only 7 of most things, bath robes, towels in the hot tub room & mugs etc...and just to mention: we had a washing machine full of dirty towels when we arrived too. The hot tub had been overfilled, which made it difficult as when 2 ( only) of our party got in -the hot tub overflowed. Which meant we were reluctant to use it as we had to spend almost an hour cleaning & mopping up! So in hindsight, we would have not bothered with the hot tub. The house is wonderful and fulfilled all our expectations . Just thought it best to mention as constructive criticism. Thankyou. Kind Regards, Sam Ellis .
