  • "Needs a deep clean as all pots sides and floors needed cleaning."

    Spiral stairs wasn't advertised as if known we wouldn't have booked. Beds are really uncomfortable. The positive is the location as it's perfect to get to the location. No response from owner before or during holiday. Had a broken window with no response.Cleaners came earlier than check out so had to rush to get 3 children ready to leave.

    Thanks for your feedback, we're sorry the property didn’t meet expectations during your stay. We’ve raised the cleanliness concerns with the housekeeping team to ensure improvements. The spiral staircase is as shown in the listing, though we'll review how clearly it's presented to help future guests. We’ve also escalated the issue regarding the broken window to the maintenance team for resolution. We're glad you enjoyed the location, and we appreciate your comments as they help us improve both the property and service. Property Owner

  • "The property was in a great area."

    Just a short, pleasant walk along the harbour side into Whitby. Rose Cottage looks very tatty from the outside and the steps leading up to the property were tricky. Certainly not suitable for anybody with mobility issues!! The front door lock could do with replacing. The toilet seat was hanging off, hubby tightened it up but still loose. There is alot of damp in the twin room. The whole house could have done with a good scrub! All in all tho, we had a very pleasant stay.

    Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're really pleased to hear you enjoyed the location and found it convenient for exploring Whitby. We're sorry to learn about the issues you encountered during your stay. Your comments regarding the exterior appearance, access steps, front door lock, toilet seat, cleanliness, and damp in the twin room have all been noted and shared with the property management team. These matters will be reviewed as a priority to help ensure a better experience for future guests. We truly appreciate your balanced feedback, and we're glad you still had a pleasant stay overall.

  • "The owner was lovely and helpful but some basic maintenance is required, I did inform the owner that the cold tap in the bathroom couldn't be turned on as there was no handle and to be fair they did say they would sort it asap but I said they could sort it later."

    I didn't mention that the fan in the bathroom seems to be catching and may need replacing at some point as I only noticed it the last day. The cleanliness wasn't great either. There was sand on the sofa and dust on the windowsills when we entered, the kitchen sink was a bit slimy under the drying rack too. I found a few peanuts in the living room on the floor and we didn't have any peanuts so definitely from a previous resident. The mattress on the bed is also ridiculously hard and would probably benefit from a topper. Not the owners fault but the local residents up the hill were an issue as they clearly didn't like non locals on street parking and parked really close to my car out of spite. I just moved it as it clearly bothered them so might be worth warning people to park on the road going into Whitby town. Other than that it was a really fantastic base and was good value for money. It was better than the tent I was considering using until I saw the weather forecast. Despite the issues above I would definitely use the proprety again.

    Thank you for your detailed and honest feedback. We're really pleased to hear you found the owner helpful and that, despite the issues, you had a good stay and would return. We're sorry to hear about the cleanliness concerns and maintenance issues, these have been shared with the relevant teams so they can be addressed promptly. We'll also ensure the tap and bathroom fan are looked at, and your suggestion regarding the mattress is appreciated. Your note about local parking experiences is helpful too. Thanks again for your thoughtful comments, they help us improve and ensure a better experience for all guests. Property Owner

  • "Spacious cosy cottage in perfect location to visit all local attractions."

    Fresh clean white towels and linen provided which was a bonus. Stairs could be a bit awkward if you have mobility issues due to narrow spiral but was fine for us. Kitchen had everything you need for self catering. Was even some games and books to read if you wanted quiet time. Only negative feedback is some furniture does need update nothing major just things like stand up mirror as when I touched it it fell apart had no nuts on the bolts to hold it together. Apart from that was lovely beds and sofas comfy no issues. Would definitely book again.

  • "Rose cottage was lovely, very spacious and provided everything we needed for our week away in Whitby and felt like we was home from home."

    The only negatives I could give would be... the discripton of the property stated it had a garden (however what was there couldnt be called a garden, more a path outside the front window. We have 3 shit tzu's and it wasnt big enough for them and there was no grass in sight), the T.V in the bedroom although had an ariel recieved no channels. Virtually no freezer space. We was informed there was no parking for the property, however was misinformed about how accessible the parking actually is. Overall I would recommend this holiday home as it was only a 10 minute walk into whitby town center and only a 30 minute drive to some lovely walks.

  • "Cottage was noisy, slap bang on main road which was also bus route."

    No parking. No garden for dogs. Tiny front yard was unkempt and had a bucket with liquid in it that stunk to high heaven! So obviously not much care or checks given to the outside space as small as it was. Inside the cottage was comfortable enough, but bare minimum fixtures and fittings/pots and pans etc. Didn’t look very homely, and plaster falling off the walls totally unacceptable for a cottage charging 350+ just for 2 nights!! Have had far better cottages than this for same money for a full week!! Disgusted to be honest.

    Hi, Sorry to hear about the issues you had at the property, We have instructed a contractor to resolve the issue in the garden and to look at the plaster/paint. Property Owner

  • "It does need to be stated that there is NO parking or anywhere to safely unload or load your car."

    .narrow busy road…might be lucky and get a spot on the front nearby..but unlikely…..we were lucky to get the last space in a car park 10-15 min walk with bags….it stayed there for the duration costing £9 night…. Apart from the entrance steps the stairs inside are like a spiral staircase and would consider them unsuitable for small children and anyone with even the slightest mobility problems . The cottage was clean although quite a doggy smell ….quickly fixed with a good air/fabric spray that I left there…..bedding and towels all crisp and white….hate the cushions on the bed.. Well equipped kitchen , ample seating, large shower room with plenty of hot water ,good sized bedrooms… Overall apart from the parking,which meant you couldn’t use the car or risk losing your spot, we had a lovely holiday..bus stops just round the corner into town and connections to bus to Scarborough etc..cottage could do with a few minor repairs…flaking paint on ceiling etc. Personally wouldn’t go back due to parking however there are lots of people who don’t have a car so this would be fine as they could get a bus from the train station with information being given with booking…..A few bus timetables at the cottage would be good… PLUS point…Fab fish and chip shop just round the corner…..

  • "The owners need to speak to their maintenance/cleaning staff."

    We had to buy and replace the bulb for the outside light. The steps leading from the property are uneven and a simple check on lights etc before change over would have prevented one of our party from triping and nearly falling over. The pillows were dirty and one of them smelt of sweat. The kitchen bin was dirty, as was the microwave and oven. There is no garden, just a very small terrace area at the front of the property, certainly not suitable for dogs to be let out onto first thing in the morning and last thing at night. We have stayed in lots of holiday properties over the years, all have been far superior to this one.

  • "The reasons I have marked this down is because of: 1."

    The listing stated the property had "A garden" In fact there was no outside space at all, other than the front steps up to the only door. bearing in mind we had taken and paid for 3 dogs, this was an issue. Therefore I strongly suggest the word "garden" is removed from the description. 2. Facilities - there was no instructions on how to use any of the appliances, no local information and only half a toilet roll left for in theory 6 people. A petty issue perhaps but shows the lack of care and attention to detail.

Resting in the delightful, seaside town of Whitby in North Yorkshire, is this welcoming, end-terrace cottage, 5 Green Lane.

Showcasing a stone-built exterior and sitting within easy reach of the beach and Cleveland Way, 5 Green Lane makes for an idyllic getaway for a family of six.

After soaking in the sea breeze from the front patio, make your way inside to find a galley kitchen, where the designated chef can rustle up a tasty meal with the essentials available, including a handy dishwasher and two fridges!

Continue to the living/dining room, where you can settle down in front of the TV and enjoy a movie night with the family, before savouring a nourishing meal at the dining table.

Progress upstairs to find the master bedroom, a space featuring a double bed, TV and views of Whitby's harbour; additionally, on this floor you can find a shower room, where you can enjoy a refreshing rinse after a day packed with coastal walks and beachfront fun.

Climb the stairs again to the second floor, where two more well-appointed bedrooms can be found, a double and a twin; both rooms enjoy elevated views of the harbour and convenient storage space.

Plenty of days out can be had in Whitby, where you can learn of the origins of 'Dracula' by wandering through Whitby Abbey and embarking on the unique Dracula Experience, or simply make the most of the stunning, coastal scenery at the beach, on a walk along The Cinder Track or a stroll through the beautiful Pannett Park.

The town additionally hosts a fantastic range of amenities, with eateries to suit anyone's taste and shops where you can enjoy some retail therapy.

Venture along the coast to Robin Hood's Bay, a quaint fishing village that is home to the fascinating Robin Hood's Bay Museum and The National Trust property of The Old Coastguard Station, along with a beach and walks winding around Robin Hood's Bay's coastline.

Further afield lies the resort town of Scarborough, where the kids can enjoy a visit to SEA LIFE and Alpamare UK, along with enjoying a game of golf at the town's brilliant clubs, and touring Scarborough Castle or the Rotunda Museum; the town also provides you with the Scarborough North Bay Railway to board, so you can run through the glorious landscapes of the nearby North York Moors National Park.

Be sure to venture further into the National Park where plenty of activities can be partaken in to appease those outdoor enthusiasts of the group.
