Murmuration Cottage
Murmuration Cottage is in the older part of Whitby town. It's down a small yard just off Church Street, so you're in the middle of things but it's quiet back there. It's a terraced cottage.
It sleeps four. Two bedrooms upstairs, and the bathroom is up there too. It has a 4 Star rating. The kitchen is downstairs on the ground floor. The living room is on the first floor, which feels a bit different but it's nice. The stairs are regular cottage stairs.
The main thing is the view from the back. You look right out over the rooftops to Whitby Abbey on the cliff. You can see the starlings gathering sometimes in the evenings, which is where the name comes from.
You're about a minute's walk from the 199 steps up to the Abbey. The shop and a pub are just at the end of the yard. The harbour and the old town streets with the independent shops are all on your doorstep.
The Cleveland Way coastal path runs right past Whitby if you want to walk. Robin Hood's Bay is about fifteen minutes drive south. The North York Moors are inland, maybe twenty minutes by car. You can get on the steam train from Grosmont, which is about a twenty minute drive away. Scarborough is down the coast, roughly half an hour's drive.
For what's here: there's a small patio garden, a washing machine, WiFi, and TV. Bedding and towels are included. You can bring up to two dogs.
