Location Details

The ancient fishing port of Whitby lies at the mouth of the River Esk and is well placed for exploring this wonderful part of Yorkshire, with its dramatic coastline and the magnificent North York Moors. Whitby is an atmospheric town and Bram Stoker found inspiration for his classic gothic novel 'Dracula' here. The spectacular cliff top 13th Century Abbey dominates the town and is well worth visiting. Whitby developed as a fishing port in the middle ages and the history of the fishing industry can be charted in the town museum. There are a variety of shops and eateries in Whitby and other attractions in the area can be found close by, from fishing to walking one of the many trails. Whitby makes a fabulous holiday base.

The North York Moors National Park covers 554 square miles, with landscape ranging from heather-clad moorland and deep secluded dales, to the cliffs and coves of the magnificent coastline making it a haven for walkers.

Reviews

This cottage has everything you need, from the warm welcome from the hosts to the Warm & cosy, well equipped cottage. It couldn’t be more convenient for trips to Whitby and the Moors. Whitby is walkable for the energetic The garage down the road provides all the essentials (Spa) and if you turn left at the garage towards the coast road you will find a Lidl.. The Stables just up the road does excellent meals and the garden centre opposite is good for breakfast and snacks. If you go into Whitby after 6pm parking is free [£3 for 2 hours in most North York car parks] and Trenchers opposite the station do excellent fish & chips.

I wouldn't normally review a place twice but this deserves it, again we were met by very friendly hosts and the cottage is so lovely i'd give it 10 stars if I could, we had a lovely break for my husbands 40th birthday just before Christmas and everything was as it was the year before I can't fault it, I just wish this could be a regular Christmas break for us. Don't hesitate you'll love it!!

Fabulous views and great accommodation, just what we needed for a quiet weekend away. Being dog friendly was a great bonus.

Rated by Mrs Gadsby reviewed on 1st February 2016

A lovely cosy cottage, where dogs are welcome. The owners were friendly and we enjoyed Whitby and other surrounding areas.

Rated by Mrs Dudley reviewed on 12th January 2016

We stayed here for three nights in the middle of December with our two dogs in the smaller of the 2 cottages. We are very familiar with the area so knew our way around Whitby were also walkers so for us it's only a short walk into the outskirts of Whitby but if you wanted to go further and are not walkers then you'll probably want to use the car. The cottage itself is lovely I was very impressed we had a private garden where we could park the car and their were no escape routes for the dogs which meant they had the run of the garden. The owner met us and showed us round, we had plenty of room the kitchen is very spacious and included, fridge, washer and dishwasher, towels and bedding were included as well as a supply of cleaning products and some rather tasty biscuits. I do have to point out that the shower nearlly blasted me out of the bath and the bath tub was the best I could stretch out and it was deep and wide, these two things were my highlight. It was lovely and cosy we were never cold and one of my dogs in particular loved the underfloor heating though it took us a while to get used to it. We never saw the owner again until we were leaving which suited us as we like to be left to our own devices, however this is also their moto. I wouldn't hesitate in staying here again and have already recommended it to some of my doggy friends, just wish we could have stayed longer. Please note there is also a campsite attached to this property which is only open March to October so I cannot comment on what it would be like with more people about for us there was one family in the other cottage (there are only 2 cottages) and it was winter time so possibly quieter then normal.

We loved our holiday, the cottage was immaculate, very cosy and comfortable. We had everything we needed and the owner was very welcoming. We would definitely go back.

Rated by Mrs Grayson reviewed on 25th August 2015

The property and the hosts were first class. We have been visiting the North York Moors area for the past 8 years and this is the best yet. The views from the cottage were excellent, much better than we expected. Looking forward to our next holiday here.

Rated by Mr Binch reviewed on 13th July 2015

We liked everything about the cottage, especially the location, it was close enough to Whitby without being in the centre of Whitby. The owners were very friendly when we first arrived, and although they were only a couple of doors away they never bothered us. An excellent holiday, we will definitely be returning!

Rated by Mr Walton reviewed on 24th May 2015

The cottage is so cosy and comfortable, easy to stay in for a week with lovely under floor heating. Beautiful panoramic views over fields and moors. Friendly but not intrusive owners and it is private but yet so close to Whitby, very good value for money. We would book again but it seems very popular and already booked up for our next holiday.

Rated by Mrs Brook reviewed on 29th March 2015

Boradings Cottage is a cosy cottage, great under floor heating which was very welcome as I chose a particularly cold week in December. Well equipped kitchen in a spacious living area. Great views from the property, with a lovely enclosed garden and parking area. Great location, in the countryside, and very peaceful just on the outskirts of Whitby, but only a 20 minute walk into town, or five minute drive. Great location to explore other areas of the coast from too. Lovely to be able to take my dog, enclosed garden was brilliant.

The holiday accommodation was the nicest place we have stayed in having holidayed in Whitby for 8 years. The location was excellent for easy access to all the amenities and the beach. All local eateries were happy to deliver to the door. The attention to detail by the owners was exceptional, and we look forward to our next visit to Broadings Cottage.

Rated by Mr Sampson reviewed on 9th November 2013

We have stayed three times at this cottage and each time the standard as been exceptionally high. The owners are very welcoming and helpful. Lots of room to walk our dog.

Rated by Mr Greenhalgh reviewed on 14th May 2013

We arrived on a freezing cold day to a scrupulously clean, nicely warmed cottage with a nice packet of locally sourced biscuits awaiting us on the table. The owner was welcoming but she then left us alone to enjoy our break. The photos on Sykes website don't do this property justice. We thought we were going to an old jaded cottage instead we found ourselves in a relatively new barn conversion with a high vaulted ceiling and chandeliers. There is also an excellent power shower, a dishwasher and good quality bedding.

From the second we arrived to a warm greeting we began to relax. An unseasonably warm february afternoon saw us drinking coffee and the complimentary home baked biscuits outside. Drinking coffee and drinking in the fabulous view from this property. Warm, comfortable, and homely, this cottage has everything you could need (except perhaps a king size bed). Whitby centre just a mile away, the energetic could even walk! The perfect location for a weekend away.

Made very welcome on arrival by owners. Broadings is a nicely decorated and clean cottage with all necessary furniture and fittings for a relaxed holiday. Owners live in adjacent farmhouse and although always available do not intrude. Good location for exploring yorks moors and coast with many good pubs of which most are dog friendly. There is a camping and caravan site adjacent but this is not to the detriment of the cottage and should not deter anyone from visiting. Location affords excellant views of surrounding coutryside. A cottage of the highest standard which we would hesitate in recommending to anyone.

The property was on a quiet farm with very picturesque views of the North York Moors and within 3 minutes of Whitby West Cliff. A great base to explore the North Yorkshire Coastline. The owners were very friendly and a nice bottle of wine and foxes biscuit pack were waiting on the dining table when we arrived. The property is ideal for a young family of four and there was plently of room in the living area. The kitchen area was large with every utensil I could imagine. The garden area was sizeable and enclosed and a great area to sit out and eat and for the kids to play. Highly recommended.

Friendly owners. The underfloor heating was wonderful. The children loved the farm and the close interaction with the animals. The farm is also within walking distance of the main town, and there are lots of things to do in and around Whitby. We hired bicycles one day, and saw deer on a walk we did on another day. Excellent holiday!
