The stairs to the bedrooms were ok for me but too narrow for my hubby to get up and down. Overall the place was lovely.

Had a fabulous weekend in Horners cottage.

Had a fabulous weekend in Horners cottage. Great location within easy walking distance of central Whitby and lovely view of the harbour.The welcome amenities of fresh milk, tea and biscuits was a lovely touch and really made us feel welcome. There wasn't a thing out of place or missing to make our stay as comfortable as possibleKids really loved the bar downstairs - added a unique flavour to our stay and we had a great evening sitting in our own individual pub.Yes the stairs to the bedrooms are steep - but we knew this before we arrived (and we're a fit young family so not an issue) and lots of handrails to ensure we felt safe moving up and down.
