Hope Cottage
Hope Cottage is in the middle of Whitby. It's one of the old ropery cottages, from about 1840. You can see some of the old bits in the stonework. We've just tried to make it comfortable.
It sleeps five in three bedrooms. There's one bathroom. It's got a 4 Star rating. We let people bring up to two dogs. The garden is enclosed, which is handy for that.
The location is the main thing. You're about a hundred yards from the shops and pubs on one side, and maybe three hundred yards from the harbour on the other. You don't really need the car once you're here.
The stairs are steep. It's that sort of cottage. The bathroom is downstairs.
You've got the basics: a washing machine, a dishwasher, WiFi. There's a wood burner for the evenings. Bedding and towels are included. Parking is on-site, which is a relief in Whitby.
From the door, you can walk up the 199 steps to the Abbey, or just wander the old streets. The Cleveland Way path is right there if you want a longer walk along the cliffs.
If you drive, Robin Hood's Bay is about ten minutes south. Goathland, where they filmed Heartbeat, is about twenty minutes inland on the moors. The North York Moors National Park starts not far out of town. The steam railway runs through there.
