Property code: OC-W442

Stay in this quaint cottage in the seaside village of Whitby to spend glorious days strolling the beach (0.5 miles) and evenings on the cottage’s rooftop patio. Wander Whitby’s cobbled streets and historic yards and stumble upon local pubs where you can sample fresh seafood. Hike the 199 steps to the ruins of Whitby Abbey (0.3 miles) for incredible views that inspired Bram Stoker’s Dracula or make your way to the historic harbour (0.5 miles). Early in the morning you can see fishing boats sail into port and get first choice of catch for your dinner. Head to Robin Hood’s Bay (5.5 miles) and learn all about the secret life of 18th-century smugglers on the Smugglers’ Trail.

Step inside this characterful cottage and you’ll find yourself in a spacious lounge/dining room with original exposed timber panels. Take a moment to slip onto a sofa and make yourself at home in front of the wood burner. When it’s time for dinner, head to the modern shaker-style kitchen, where you’ll find everything you need to cook for your loved ones. Get everyone together to share a meal at the table in the lounge/dining room before heading up to the first floor landing to access the lovely rooftop terrace. On the first floor, you’ll also find a double bedroom with a beautiful traditional fireplace and a chic family bathroom. Up on the second floor, two single bedrooms complete this charming cottage’s layout.

In the morning, the rooftop terrace is the perfect spot to enjoy your freshly-brewed morning coffee, and is accessed from the first-floor landing.

This is a lovely little cottage, perfectly placed within Whitby right in the centre of town, but tucked nicely away, and amazingly quiet given it's location. It was the ideal place to stay for exploring the town and the whole family loved it. We would highly recommend this accommodation.

A have stayed at a number of cottages in Whitby over the years with family. in my opinion Lady bird cottage is definitely one of the best. It has a lovely layout, nice rooms with a good mix of original features and modern touches. The outside seating area was nice and came in handy, it just happended to be a suntrap later in the day. If wRead moree get the opportunity in the future I would like to stay hear again Hide

Perfect location in the heart of the Old Town. Little noise with the exception of seagulls which is to be expected. Beds were comfortable and shower worked well. Property felt spacious, was very clean and well decorated throughout. 2 keys available which was very handy.

Overall the stay was excellent. The only thing that made the comfort score a 4 and not a 5 was the sofas, the sturdy arms made it quite hard to get comfortable.
