What could be finer than a comfortable home-from-home sleeping four in style in this detached cottage in central Whitby? Whether that’s four friends or a small family, don’t forget the all-important woofer as he or she is welcome here too! Comfortable open-plan living awaits, with cosy bedrooms, practical wooden floors (just in case there are any mucky paws) and wonderful abbey views. The beach and harbour are within 500 metres, so walkies pose no problem – just check for seasonal restrictions. Stop, relax and recharge your batteries with your nearest and dearest, whilst having a BBQ in the decked area.

Downstairs, you’ll step straight into the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, so be sure to leave dog towels by the front door. Wood flooring throughout this light and airy space is a practical choice with a furry friend in tow! Comfortable seating around the TV, segues into the kitchen/diner area, slightly around the corner. It’s small but perfectly formed with a well-equipped and smart kitchen and a dining table for four. One double bedroom is also downstairs, perfect for a quick sleeping option. Upstairs, there’s an en-suite double and a single bedroom, both with stunning abbey views. The private decked area is a great touch, with furniture plus a brick-built BBQ for al fresco feasts.

Set in a historic part of Whitby, the town can be easily discovered from here via its network of atmospheric streets and lanes. People-watch at the harbour or check out the shops and businesses. The beaches (of which there are three) are sure to feature predominantly on any holiday with a canine companion. Further afield, check out the rest of this beautiful coastline or lead the way to walking adventures inland in the North York Moors National Park. Between March and December, see the sights from a heritage perspective aboard the North York Moors Railway.

The cottage is in a great location, a short stroll from the highlights of Whitby. Whilst I was there at the wrong time of year to enjoy the outside space, Im sure it would be lovely in warmer weather. Being a modern cottage, its nice to have the luxury of an extra bathroom and cloakroom. I hope to visit again.

Firstly, the website was well designed and it took about two minutes from decision to booking confirmed. Secondly, the property was excellent, clean, well looked after and as good as the promotional pictures if not better. Finally, the little messages sent by the team were very useful and just the right side of bothersome - well done for pitching Read morethat right. Thanks to all. Hide

The Cottage is located in the heart of Whitby, being an excellent location to explore the Town and undertake walks on the Beach to Sandsend and the Abbey. The Cottage itself is perfect and provides ample space for four adults. It has all the mod cons and amenities you require. The only negatives I have are as follows: Albeit directions are provRead moreided, it is still not particularly easy to find. When pulling up outside in a car, other Cottages are marked, but Sirmonds even when walking through the passage. The Property details are not very clear with regards to the winding climb upto the garden. We took my elderly parents, who remain mobile, but if they had of been on there own would have struggled with the climb with their cases or shopping. To the rear of number 4, the drain is blocked and overflows generating a sewage smell. When walking up to Sirmonds you need to walk through this water. It is not a problem being caused by Sirmonds, just an adjoining holiday let, which needs addressing. What I would say, these are minor points and I would recommend this cottage. Allan Hide

Clean and comfortable property in a good location. Very well equipped. The only problem was actually finding it. It is completely hidden behind a row of other properties and there is no signage from the road where it is. Fortunately sound local told us that it was through a gates entry and up several flights of steps.
