From the owner

Situated in the very heart of the oldest, historic part of the east side of Whitby, The Corner House is one of the oldest properties in Whitby, with a lease first being signed in 1639! Fully renovated in 2014 with a host of quality fixtures and fittings to make your stay as comfortable as possible.

We love our location, as it's perfect for travellers of all ages with there being no hills, steep steps or cobbles to negotiate with walking sticks or pushchairs. We're still within very, very easy reach of shopping and eating and drinking establishments, as well as being close to attractions and the beach.

Travelling with young children? Unfortunately, we've taken the decision not to provide a travel cot any more, however, we do still have a 'Retract-a-Gate' baby gate, a high chair, potty and a toddler's training toilet seat - to save you having to try to cram everything you need into the car!

In the kitchen and open plan living room you'll find that we've gone to town with everything from York stone flooring and granite worktops to a separate drinks cooler (so you don't have to choose between the wine and the milk!), free wi-fi and loads of books and DVDs (we've removed the games for the time being). Nothing has been left out, to make your stay with us as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.

Upstairs, the shower room has a fabulous, large shower enclosure (big enough for two - if that's what takes your fancy!), along with W.C and vintage wash basin (we haven't got a baby bath right now though, so you may need to bring one).

Bedroom 1 (The Green Room)

This has the most comfortable king sized metal bed that I've slept in for ages and a gorgeous super king sized, super snuggly, Christy duvet. We've even put a wall mounted television with Freeview and DVD player in there, in case you decide to stay in bed all day! This room also has plenty of storage and great, dual aspect windows with fabulous views of the upper harbour.

Bedroom 2 (The Yellow Room)

This is another good sized bedroom with two single metal beds with lovely, super cosy, double sized Christy duvets. Again, we've put a wall mounted television with Freeview and DVD player in there, for when you want to keep the kids quiet! This room also has plenty of storage and the same fabulous views of the upper harbour.

Whilst the cottage does not have its own dedicated parking space, there is a very handy, free, one hour, limited waiting bay just outside, which is ideal for unloading your bags and there's a Council run, long stay car park approximately 50 metres away, which provides you with the option of using a 'cashless' parking system (which lets you pay via a mobile app and even reminds you when your ticket is about to expire!) - very handy! Otherwise, further up the street there is free, on street parking.

Did you also know that Holiday Lettings aren't our sole booking agent? We can be found really easily in loads of other places!

Interaction with guest

I'm not usually around to greet you at the start of your stay, however, I have put everything in place to ensure that you can access the property and have all you need. I am always available via text, phone, email or message though, should you need me and my cleaning and maintenance team all live locally, should they need to drop in.

A lovely old cottage, with everything you need and very well kept. It is very central, in easy level walking distance for everything round the harbour. Communication from the owner very good.
