A delightful maisonette centrally located in this historic fishing town, Crooked Cottage is the perfect holiday hideaway from which to explore Whitby. From the atmospheric Abbey towering over winding cobbled streets to the windswept beach and working harbour, Whitby is one of Yorkshire's most popular seaside towns. No trip to this picturesque port would be complete without sampling some award-winning fish and chips, discovering the story of Bram Stoker’s Dracula, learning about English explorer Captain James Cook or seeing the unique Whitby Jet gems. Being by the sea, you'll also get to enjoy classic seaside fun such as sandcastle building, crabbing and walks along the pier.

Entering up the steps to the front door and through the spacious porch, the cosy living area boasts two comfy sofas with plenty of space to relax. The modern, well-equipped kitchen has an extended breakfast bar with high-backed chairs for everyone to share a meal together. Also on this floor is a twin bedroom with an original cast iron fireplace. Take the steep winding staircase from the kitchen to the first floor, where you will find a modern bathroom, fully tiled with a large walk-in shower. Also on this floor is the master bedroom, with fantastic original beams overhead, a double bed and views of Whitby Abbey.

Outside is an enclosed private decked area with a storage shed containing outdoor furniture.

  • 2 bedrooms – 1 double, 1 twin with single zip-and-link beds (combine for super-king-size)

The only negative was that more information is needed on the parking arrangements in Whitby as they are very confusing. The cottage and its location was excellent.

We enjoyed our stay at this cottage. Very clean and well thought out. Stairs and steps a bit worrying although we expect this in an old cottage, just a lot of external steps for my daughter who is pregnant. We didnt like being reminded constantly about time of arrival and thought 4pm doesnt allow much time on your first afternoon and receiving emaiRead morels about departure as we started our last day felt a rude reminder. Im not usually critical, but felt I should share. Thank you. Hide

We found the cottage to be spotless and with all the amenities we could need for our short stay. The quality of the decor was very good and well maintained. Very comfortable beds and couches. The little welcome pack was very useful (sponge, tea towel, kitchen roll, tea and coffee).

The cottage was exactly as it looked on the website. It was clean, had everything we needed for a short stay and it was in a great location. Brilliant. The booking process and check-in were straight-forward. The only tiny negative was that there was no scratch card for the parking inside the cottage. Fortunately the office was just a few yardsRead more away from the cottage and as it was still open we were able to get a scratch card from them otherwise we would have had to pay for car parking for four days.

A lovely comfortable cottage - had all our meals outside on the patio area - feels miles away from the business of Whitby. Great coastline and lovely exploring the moors. Thank you!!
