A spacious, welcoming cottage, this delightful getaway makes a fantastic holiday home for couples and smaller families seeking a quiet base within easy reach of the heart of the seaside town of Whitby. With plenty of space for four guests, the property also has ample room for a pet dog to come along and help you explore a stunning part of the North Yorkshire coast. The cottage lies in a quiet part of the town just half a mile from the beach, and features exposed timber panels, a wood burner, a four-poster bed and a rooftop terrace.

This characterful cottage offers a spacious and tastefully furnished lounge/diner with exposed timber panels, a cosy wood burner, plenty of seating and a delightful dining area. The ground floor also has a lovely shaker-style kitchen. Upstairs, the first floor offers a beautiful double room with a four-poster bed alongside a chic family bathroom. Further stairs lead up to the second floor and two light, relaxing single bedrooms. From the first floor landing you can step out onto the snug rooftop terrace. Fully enclosed, this is an ideal spot for a morning coffee as you and your pet get ready to discover everything Whitby has to offer.

The cottage is on the eastern bank of the River Esk, with a range of pubs, shops and cafes to enjoy, many of them pet-friendly. Your canine pal can help you up the 199 Steps which lead to the remains of Whitby Abbey where you can take in some magnificent sea views. Whitby has a sandy beach where dogs are welcome, though there are some seasonal restrictions. Your pooch can also join you for a stroll in Pannett Park, on a trip on the North York Moors Railway, or for a short voyage with the Captain Cook Experience.

The central location is great, if not a little noisy because to that. We were promised parking scratch cards, but got none. I presume that is part of the cost of the rental, so we lost out there. I did try and call several times on the Saturday when we arrived, but the phone was never answered. I did then email my concern that day, but this was Read morestill not responded to until Tuesday, by which time Id made other arrangements. Hide

This is a lovely little cottage, perfectly placed within Whitby right in the centre of town, but tucked nicely away, and amazingly quiet given it's location. It was the ideal place to stay for exploring the town and the whole family loved it. We would highly recommend this accommodation.

A have stayed at a number of cottages in Whitby over the years with family. in my opinion Lady bird cottage is definitely one of the best. It has a lovely layout, nice rooms with a good mix of original features and modern touches. The outside seating area was nice and came in handy, it just happended to be a suntrap later in the day. If wRead moree get the opportunity in the future I would like to stay hear again Hide

Drop off point is poor when you have to unload and load your luggage then have to carry along ro house. Drove round for 2 hours trying to look for parking zones for scratch card areas, still didn't find any , so had to park elsewhere! Mattress is poor in main bedroom.

Perfect location in the heart of the Old Town. Little noise with the exception of seagulls which is to be expected. Beds were comfortable and shower worked well. Property felt spacious, was very clean and well decorated throughout. 2 keys available which was very handy.
