Our second stay at the White Whale ground floor flat. This one bedroom accommodation has everything you need, is in a central location both for the sea, shops and the older part of Whitby. Enjoyed our stay for the week.
Lovely property, it had everything we needed and more. Thoughtful touches made it feel welcoming, easy to find, good access and perfect location. Would definitely recomend staying here, thoroughly enjoyed our stay, thank you.

Flat very handy for local amenities, comfortable, well equipped, ( pity that the air fryer wasn't there though) bed very comfortable , doggy toy box a nice touch. We always have a lovely time at White Whale Thank you 👠😊
The property is great and has everything needed for an enjoyable stay. Location was perfect for town, the pavillion and access to cinder trail.
My only criticism is that cottages.com didn’t provide information on access to the property. There was a key sage with 5 unlabelled keys in. Then had to work out how to get through 3 doors and find the flat I. The property..extremely frustrating!!

Good basement flat that was lovely and cool in the hot weather. Well equipped
lovely property clean, well appointed, and perfect.
It was a superb clean flat which allowed dogs so was nearly like being at home, sadly with 4 flats on site it was a lottery if you had a parking space, but on street parking vouchers provided. We were luck and got a flat space on the last night, so all in all 110 out of 100, top marks +.
Just got back from a great 4 day stay in Whitby. Apartment was so clean and spotless when we arrived. Lovely place with everything that you need.
Fantastic location, close to the beach and all the shops.
Owner really good at sending all the info a few days before arrival for the key access to the apartment.
Will definitely be booking again for next year😀
Great location and parking space good value for the money

Really enjoyed the stay and ideal location.
Really enjoyed the stay and ideal location. Only 5 minutes from the harbour and local amenities only a short walk away. Ideal property for the dog as it was on the ground floor. Facilities good and very comfortable throughout.
Parking was a problem as the roof was being refurbished on one of the upper floor properties so couldn't park outside the back of the property. Street parking also very difficult at the weekend despite having a 4-day permit. Council car park only 100 yards away so able to use that.
Really enjoyed Whitby and surrounding villages such as Staines and Robin Hoods Bay. Great walking and fantastic scenery despite the weather. Would go again.
