  • Delightful Georgian cottage in the heart of Whitby
  • Beautiful sea views from all three floors
  • Private garden and patio perfect for relaxing in whilst enjoying views of Whitby Abbey

Property code: OC-W010

Bursting with character and charm, this renovated Georgian cottage offers an elegant and stylish base for your holiday in Whitby. Sleeping four in two bedrooms and welcoming two contended canines, this delightful abode is perfect for a romantic retreat, a family break or an intimate getaway with friends. Have a ghoulishly good time exploring the town’s gothic history and scampering on sands, before returning here to unwind in two comfy lounges and dine alfresco in the salty sea air.

Straddling three storeys with panoramic views of Whitby Abbey throughout, this is a property sure to set tails wagging. It’s been lovingly renovated to blend original features such as wood panelling, exposed beams and ornate fireplaces with thoughtfully chosen period-style furniture and contemporary comforts. There’s ample room for you and your pack to spread out or gather together with two lounges – one on the ground floor and one on the first floor – along with an open-plan kitchen/diner for sociable mealtimes. When it’s time to let sleeping dogs lie, take your pick from a first-floor double bedroom next to the family bathroom, or head up to the second-floor twin bedroom which has an en-suite shower room. Outside, a private patio offers a lovely spot for an al-fresco breakfast or supper, while your pups investigate the gravel garden. While there’s no private parking, a permit is provided for a nearby car park on a first-come, first-served basis.

Offering sea, sand and spooky stories, Whitby has plenty to offer human and hound. Wind your way up the famous 199 steps to investigate St Mary’s Church and the iconic ruins of Whitby Abbey or grab a frisbee and head to the beach. While West Cliff Beach has seasonal dog restrictions, your pups can run free on Tate Hill Beach all year.

Lovely house in central Whitby very close to everything you need. The house is comfortable and the views from the main lounge and attic bedroom are fantastic. The outside space is lovely. Parking is difficult but there is a small car park 100m away. Parking fees added around 60 to the costs for a week.

Good location, but the cottage interior is a bit tierd and could do with some inexpensive refurbishment. Too basic for our party.

Our first visit to Loen cottage & hopefully not our last! It's spacious, well equipped, & has wonderful views towards the harbour and the abbey from 3 floors. It's also in a good central location. We didn't need to use the car all week.

Very nice cottage with a terrific view on the harbour and the abbey from all floors. The living room is comfortable and the kitchen well equipped. We found games and beach toys for the kids in the garden locker. Everything you need for a pleasant stay. Good location and quiet at night.

A beautiful gem of a property right in the heart of Whitby with gorgeous views on all levels overlooking the harbour and Abbey. Close proximity to the town and amenities, but still peaceful and calm. Plenty of homely additions to settle in whilst staying, as well as secure outdoor space that also makes the most of the beautiful view. Clear instructRead moreions and guides on how to get round and make the most of Whitby and the surrounding area, and overall very clean and welcoming. Would definitely recommend and book again if coming back to the area. However, it's best to be clear that some with accessibility issues may struggle with some aspects of this property/location. The parking may be tricky, there is a long stay car park just a few short minutes walk up a steep hill/stairs that costs just under 10 for 24 hours. The house is also over three levels with very steep stairs. Hide

This was our third stay at Loen Cottage. It is a wonderful location with fantastic views. The cottage is very quiet yet only 2 minutes walk from town. It's very comfortable and clean and the little garden is an added bonus.

Good accommodation in a great location. This was our 2nd stay at Loen cottage and the property has benefitted from being redecorated and new carpets. It was fresh and clean and offers spacious and well equipped accommodation. It might not have the 'wow-factor' of some other properties but on price and location it's a great place to stay. We will beRead more returning later in 2024. Hide
