Accommodation Details

One ground floor double bedroom with en-suite bath, shower over, basin and WC. First floor basin and WC. First floor open plan living area with sofa bed, kitchen, dining area and sitting area.

A fabulous semi-detached cottage, centrally located, yet tucked away in a quiet corner, in the popular seaside town of Whitby, Yorkshire. The Store Rooms was converted from a former auction house and has been immaculately restored, now providing a wonderful hideaway for couples and friends wishing to enjoy the many attractions this charming town has to offer. Beautifully furnished and decorated throughout, the cottage provides upside down accommodation, with a pretty double bedroom and a bathroom on the ground floor. Upstairs is a spacious open plan living area with a sofa bed, with a pitched roof, quirky floor level windows and Velux windows giving a very light and airy feel to the room. There is also a well-equipped kitchen with a fold-down dining table and sumptuous seating in which to sink into after a busy day exploring. A two-minute walk brings you into the hub of this thriving historic town, with restaurants, pubs and independent shops all on the doorstep. Wander around the quaint narrow streets, enjoy coffee and cakes in one of the many tea rooms, or enjoy a cocktail in a harbourside bar. An absolute must are the renowned Whitby fish and chips, and a climb up the 199 steps is well-worth the effort for the panoramic views along the coastline. The surrounding countryside of the North York Moors National Park is stunning and there are many drives along this dramatic stretch of heritage coastline. A wonderful romantic cottage for a varied and interesting holiday.

The ancient fishing port of Whitby lies at the mouth of the River Esk and is ideally situated for exploring this beautiful part of Yorkshire, with its superb coastline and close proximity to the spectacular North York Moors. Whitby is a charming and atmospheric town of winding streets and hidden alleys, with a picturesque harbour, safe sandy beaches and of course the Abbey, reached by the famous 199 steps.

Reviews

Having just spent a great week at this cottage we were so impressed by the accommodation. In past bookings the actual accommodation has not always lived up to the description but this time it surpassed it. The cottage is so well furnished with very tasteful decor and furniture. A lovely bathroom with a shower that doesn't go hot and cold, a kitchen with everything needed including sharp knives! We enjoyed lovely quiet nights in a bed that was perfect. A good fish and chip shop and a bakers 2 minutes away was brilliant and 5 mins to the harbour, what more could you ask for?. The owners have really set a standard that others should follow, you won't be disappointed.

Located close to all amenities, excellent accomodation for a couple but there is a comfortable sofa bed in the upstairs living area, which suited our party of 3 plus dog.

Rated by Mr Doran reviewed on 21st May 2016

We came for a short break, having been to Whitby regularly for many years. This is the first time we had booked a Sykes cottage. The cottage has been beautifully done with Laura Ashley styling everywhere. Little touches like a pint of milk in the fridge and Botham biscuits as a welcome make it a home from home. We had a struggle when we arrived to unload our luggage as the advertised parking is non existant. For the four days we were here the same cars were parked outside with residents parking permits in the windscreens. One couple even go to the extreme of swopping their cars over when the other goes out just so they do not lose their space. If you come to Whitby just be prepared for the parking permit hell that Scarborough CC have implemented. The cottage, once settled in, provides the perfect base for exploring the town. Steep paths are Whitby and you are a short trot to pubs and restaurants but the cottage is tucked away so that you do not get disturbed by any late night revellers which many of the other cottages would suffer from. I would definately recommend this cottage. However I feel Whitby is losing the quaint seaside feel I fell in love with for a more uncaring consummerism.

The Store Rooms is very comfortable, well presented and in a great location for exploring Whitby. I would book this cottage again, without hesitation.

Rated by Mrs Railton reviewed on 10th November 2015

A superb cottage decorated and equipped to a very high standard. The lovely deep bath, hot shower and good water pressure were the icing on the cake. The cottage was perfectly placed for all of Whitby's attractions, bars and restaurants. The parking permit was a definite bonus! I can't recommend the place highly enough.
