Abbey View

Great location and having a drive was good.

Beds were comfy although I think bigger (deeper) fitted sheets are needed. The wet room downstairs was good although the drainage plug was cracked and the shower head didn't stay where you needed it. Upstairs shower was ok, the small shower head has a small crack but was usable. Kitchen was well equipped for cooking (although we didn't cook) does need some cleaning products tho, only had 1 sponge and cloth and no spray to wipe the sides with so had to buy some. There were quite a few spiders about not great when Ur scared (all 3 of us were) we managed with the little ones but 2 big ones

Property very dirty - Previous guests dirty washing left in washing machine, unwashed dirty mugs in kitchen cupboard, dead flies on windowsills, artificial plants thick with dust, shards of broken crockery on kitchen island worktop, dirty stains around kitchen sink, well established cobwebs on internal windows/doors, shower heads dirty, extractor fan thick with dust, dirty toilet seat, skirting boards dirty and thick dust, sewage smell in back garden.

Can provide photos.

A very lovely property on a quiet residential street.

Comfortable beds/furniture. Easy access walking into main town or going places in car.Added bonus having hot tub. If garage isn't used by owner for vehicle would make a great games room, small snooker or football table. Would recommend this property and stay again.

Spent three nights in early May 2026.

Very comfortable well laid out modern house. Everything was as listed and perfect for our stay. Great bonus of having Net flicks and Prime on the TV, and the extra bonus of a fantastic and very clean and warm Jacuzzi in the garden. The location is very quiet and only a ten minute walk to the centre of Whitby, though this being a seaside town there is a steep hill to walk up on your way back. Would recommend this property and would be happy to return.

First of all, I would like to say that there are reviews with regards to cleanliness.

We found this property to be spotless and fresh. Absolutely no complaints at all. However, the main reason we booked this was for the hot tub. Unfortunately, it was cold on the first night. We called the owners and they came straight round to address the issue but they had changed the water that day. They must know how long it takes to warm up as it is their hot tub. It was still not warm by the 10pm curfew so we all missed out on it for that night. The kids were really disappointed. Why can't it be filled with hot water? Either way, hugely disappointing. The other issue is the cooking utensils. This is a high end and very expensive property. The pans and cooking trays are old and need replacing. There is no decent frying pan to cook eggs in for the full English. For a couple of hundred quid, they could get a really good set in. We managed but again, really disappointing. Overall, we enjoyed our stay but these issues spoilt it somewhat and hence, the rating. Would we stay again? Yes, if these issues were addressed.

Spacious comfortable accommodation, with just about everything required for a long weekend.

Near to town centre. No problem parking on drive. Would definitely recommend.

The property is in need of a makeover, marks all over walls, stains on carpets, mould all round shower tray, drawers in bedrooms were dirty with hairs in, the kitchen bin was broken and rusted , drawers in kitchen were dirty and had bits of food in , ovenware in poor condition, although property is in a good position would not recommend due these issues

Few Staines here and there, But cannot fault the property, close to town, quiet and very accommodating.

Overall

Fitted sheet was only double sheet and the bed was king size so we couldn’t get it on the bed so had to sleep for 5 days on the mattress.

pillow cases too small to get the pillows in just too tight for the pillows. such a shame as the house was lovely. Very clean and plenty it the the right equipment. we had a lovely hot week and still did enjoy ourself so don’t be put off the house and the hot tub was great such a shame about the sheet and pillow cases

The place is lovely and a great location.

We enjoyed our stay, however we found a few issues. The bedside drawers in the twin bedroom were dirty along with stains on the towels. There was a pill of some sort on the floor of the ground floor bedroom. There was a dirty mark on the tiles below the toilet roll holder in the upstairs bathroom. The wall next to the sofa in the dining area was dirty, as was the arm of the sofa. There were lots of cobwebs in the skylight above the dining table. The hot tub was dirty. And the sheet that was on the king-size bed upstairs was too small. I have taken photos if you require them."round floor.

Despite the issues I would still recommend and return.

Amazing house, lovely and spacious with only a 5 minute walk to town.

My only couple of gripes were that the non stick pans were in pretty bad shape due to people scraping them with metal utensils and no kitchen roll on arrival but apart from that amazing, would definitely recommend.

We had a lovely stay here .

We would come back again . We recommend getting clothes airier as fantastic have washing machine but no where to air clothes . Also the light stay on continuously outside all night which makes it difficult to sleep in front bedroom . No means is this let down as like said this is what we would have preferred cannot fault this facility although feel Horus undersold this was a gem ! And views form proper form upstairs were amazing l! We had best stay

Had a great week at Abbey View, the property is in a perfect location, only a short walk from the town centre, even closer once we discovered the shortcut path on the other side of the close.

Read a few bad reviews about parking, noise and smells from the dog breeder next door. Had no trouble getting a large SUV estate onto the drive and am sure a second would have fitted too. As for the dogs other than the very occasional bark we didn't know they were there, certainly much quieter than a lot of dog owners we know! The hot tub was great and being covered we used it in the pouring rain and wind. The floating chlorine dispenser meant the water was perfect all week rather being overdosed to try and make it last a week as often happens. The only very minor faults were that there was a teapot but not a cafetiere for coffee and no replacement bin bags. Sure we will return.

Beautiful place .

.the only thing I would suggest is some blinds maybe on the patio doors and side windows.

an amazing place to stay could`nt fault it

Everything as advertised.

Had a very comfortable stay. 10 mins walk into town, parking a great bonus. Would recommend.

Recently returned from lovely week staying at Abbey View with friends.

3 adults and 2 children (13 and 10 years old). House was lovely, very modern. We loved the open plan feeling, and the extension with the kitchen and dining area is lovely.. Loved the blue lights around the skylight, made for fun time playing Just Dance on our Switch in the evenings. After reading past reviews, we were interested to see the property for ourself. Driveway, a bonus in Whitby and could certainly take our two cars. Could it take 3? Possibly. Would it make entry and exit easier if the wall wasn't there? Yes, But it is what it is. One vehicle can pull straight in while other vehicle had to do a bit of manoeuvring, but tbh, not a problem - for a Jag xe and a Qashqai. No need for extra driving lessons for us :-). What I would say is, don't try and reverse car in the right hand entrance of the drive, an XE doesn't fit and the lip on the drive will result in grounding the car out.. No damage done, but that will teach me for trying when the wife said it will not fit. Quality furnishings, kitchen, bathroom and, carpets, beds, lovely clean / crisp décor. Very comfy.. Location is excellent. 10 / 15 minute walk straight in to town. Very quiet residential area. Cleanliness, to be honest, we found somethings bit dirty - plates, bowls, cutlery, upstairs toilet didn't look like it had been cleaned and hairs found in one of the beds. Although, we did put in a call to the cleaners (contact details were in visitor book) and they were quick to come back round when we were out to give the place a clean. Hot tub could have been cleaner tbh - fair bit of grit when we first arrived, and by the 2nd half of the week it could have certainly done with a top up of chlorine and a clean, with the water starting to look a tad green. We have our own hot tub at home, so fully aware of showering before and after etc... Garden was lovely, perfect size to chill out in. Dogs. Now there are dog breeders directly next door, which we were aware of when we booked. We have dogs ourself, so this was not an issue for us. What was an issue was the strong smell of dog faeces when we arrived and on the first night. This could be smelt from the front of the property, the front door and was particularly overpowering in the back garden. Thankfully we went out for a walk and had a meal down the town. We would certainly not have been able to sit in the garden nor have the back door open with the smell. I wonder if the owners heard us talking about it, as the area was soon hosed down (we could hear them cleaning) and the smell never appeared again throughout the week. As I say, we have no issues with dogs, and the owners clearly have a real passion for their Dobermans, but the smell on the first night was over powering and disgusting. I should also note, no prolonged noises of dogs barking etc... There are some clear signs of dampness staining in the main hall wall and on the wall of the downstairs bedroom. I wonder if there is a leak from the upstairs bathroom? Woodlice were very common throughout this area. Down stairs toilet radiator very rusted.. To be honest, none of this is a complaint and mentioning it merely as observation for the owner. They have a lovely property, in a great location and they have clearly put a lot of time and money in to making it a quality holiday let, in a cracking location. Would we return? Yes.. Would we recommend it? Yes, and have already done so for friends looking to stay in Whitby. Thanks again owners for allowing us to use your property, enjoyed our stay, we will be back..

Everything is well set out and there is plenty of space, we loved the open plan.

The parking is a little tight, we have a Sharan so it would only fit in one entrance and the neighbour parked their van right at the side of the entrance on the road so made it a little harder to see. Opening up the wall would easily solve this problem. You also need to like the smell of dogs as the neighbours washed them out twice a day which made an unpleasant smell. The welcome book is un friendly, it's just full of instruction manuals which at times didn't help. Eg the hob only works with certain size pans on and they have pans in the house that don't fit so took us a while to work out why it wouldn't work. We nearly rang maintenance to help but they weren't open so had to Google the solution. The curtain pole in the main bedroom is ready to come off so we just left the curtains closed which didn't make any difference as they are really thin and light so let all the light in regardless. Blackout curtains are needed in all rooms. I think the rooms were dark for about 5 hours as didn't go dark till after 10pm and sunrise was 4am . There are lights on front of house that light up the house at night which is lovely from the outside but they also light the main room with big patio doors. We solved this problem by buying eyemasks which wasn't ideal for a 6year. Regardless of all this the house is in an ideal location to explore Whitby. You are 15min walk into town, 5mins from the museum and park and a 15-minute walk to the beach. Supermarkets and some lovely country pubs are 10mins drive in the opposite direction. The hot tub is constantly warm so easily accessed and stayed clean for most of our 2 weeks stay, the last couple of days we didn't use as starting to smell. Overall it's a lovely house in a perfect location and we were looking to stay again unfortunately the price for next summer has doubled and it's definitely not worth what is being asked which is a real shame .

Wow, a beautiful property and once you’ve worked out the short cut a 10 minute walk from the harbour.

The hot tub was a nice touch and would definitely recommend the stay………. Thank You so much!

Overall very good.

Positives: Great location- close to the centre etc Off road parking Lots of storage Good central heating Lots of light, fresh and modern feel Comfortable sofa and beds TV's Washing machine Lighting A few niggles: Carpets downstairs has some stains No oven gloves supplied (had to use towels) Hot tub cover very difficult to put back on

Tap in the kitchen was dripping the shower room downstairs had to clean the floor and the wall of damp mould otherwise the cottage was ok we didn't use the oven the washer machine or the dishwasher and we also didn't use the hot tub I did feel that the outside could do with a trim back It did need a bit of T LC But we did enjoy our holiday at Whitby we did eat out all the while and the visits to the Moors and also the abbey etc We're very interesting also your directions to the property but ok thank you very much we enjoyed our holiday

My family had a great week staying in this cottage, which was local to a children’s’ playground and within walking distance of the harbour and shops.

The beds were very comfortable as was the lounge. The kitchen had plenty of surface area and had a good range of pans and baking trays. It was a shame that something as simple as a toaster could not be replaced fairly quickly as we used this every day. The base of the oven was dirty with something spilled and baked on over some time. I did attempt to clean this but my soft scourer was only able to remove the edges of the marks. We only used the oven to heat pizza and it worked well, as did the microwave. The parking says it takes 3 cars and there are 2 entrances to the drive with a high wall between the 2. The picture is a bit misleading as one entrance is extremely narrow and there is a large shrub that comes across the entrance and cannot be avoided if parking there. The other entrance is a good metre wider and easier to reverse into but only a small car could get round the corner to park in the middle bit of the driveway. We had 2 long cars and the picture makes it look as if the whole driveway is open to the road and is deeper from the road to the front of the house, that is the only reason I mention it. We managed the drive with the 2 cars reversed straight back although we only used 1 car in the wider gateway once there due to the narrow width and Buddleia bush in the way of the other. The hot tub was good and there was a picnic table and a small table with 2 chairs to sit at in the back garden.

Lovely stay at Abbey View, very comfortable, lots of space and loved the hot tub!

Great location in a quiet road but walkable distance to the town. Slightly disappointed there was no welcome basket and no extras e.g. hand wash, as we usually have these in other holiday homes and we had to go and buy our own towels as only one supplied per guest and these were small. These are only suggestions though to improve the house even more as we would thoroughly recommend a stay here.

Lovely accommodation with excellent facilities for a home from home holiday.

Comfortable beds tv in every room and 2 shower rooms. Hot tub an excellent bonus.

Had a lovely stay at Abbey View, the property was clean and comfortable in a quiet location and the hot tub was an added bonus.

Location was great only a 5 minute walk down to the harbour with an abundance of shops, restaurants and bars. My only recommendation would be to have black out blinds in upstairs front bedroom as the light came into the room from 4.30 am. Other than that it was perfect for us. We would return and definitely recommend to family and friends.

Excellent property in a great location just a short walk down to the harbour side and town centre where we have never seen so many fish and chip shops in one place Very clean and tidy everything you could need in a holiday home and the hot tub was a nice welcome extra after a hard days walking !

!!

As with other comments, found it odd to not have more local info in a file, or a guest book.

2 toilet rolls between 6 was also limited, no replacement bin bags provided. Other than that, house was perfect for what we wanted. Comfortable beds, generous size wise.

Perfect weekend break could have stayed longer Spacious well planned and equipped holiday home ideal for grandparents parents and 2 children Never had a many tv’s (5) in a holiday home before and channel selection to suit everyone Plenty of room if needed own space If bad weather it would work perfectly plenty of floor space to play garden small but then you do not go to a lovely seaside resort with lots to do to stay in The walk to to harbour is 5 minutes downhill walk steep back up great exercise sets you up for the hot tub A previous review complaint regarding dogs next door really not a problem and I’m not a dog lover at all Very quiet neighbourhood even the seagulls quieter because you are further back Recycle bin would be a good idea

The property is finished to a very high standard and feels very luxurious and immaculately clean.

I would say its more suited to older children and adults as the tables are glass and thick comfortable carpets in the dining area that could easily get stained. There weren’t any plastic items other than cups like plate or cutlery that young children could use. As of yet there aren’t any games, books or homely items like tea/coffee so make sure you pack what you need. There also isn’t any leaflets of local attractions or guest book that we usually use for extra ideas. The view of the Abbey is very clear and pictures don’t do it justice. The hot tub is in a wooden building so can be enjoyed when it’s raining or snowing in our case. The house was lovely and warm, beds very comfortable and kitchen was well stocked with cooking items. We didn’t see an option for recycling which would be nice. The luxury house, short distance to the town and a walk away from a lovely park made the trip . Thank you

Had a lovely break, house really nice and clean great stay.

Had a wonderful time during our stay at Abbey View.

The house was great. It was clean and had everything we needed. The hot tub was also a plus! It was so nice to go out exploring Whitby then come back and relax in the hot tub despite the cold weather. Would 100% recommend!

Lovely house with everything we needed.

Spotlessly clean. The driveway may be a bit tight for 3 cars but we only had one, so not an issue. We had a problem with one of the French doors coming off it's hinge, which we reported on Wednesday. We managed to get it back on & locked. Nobody had been to look at it when we left on Friday but may be that they were going to check it that day.

It is a lovely, modern, spacious home with a large kitchen diner.

It is ideally situated with only a short walk into town, and it has car parking space for more than one vehicle which is a bonus in Whitby. We enjoyed it so much that we have already booked for next year.

We found Abbey view to be spotlessly clean, and my wife is an expert on dust detection.

It has high quality, and very comfortable furnishings, with bed linen and towels also spotless. Whitby was a great place, and a handy location for us, as we live in the south east, and my wife has family in the north east, therefor we were able to use the holiday let as a staging post for visiting. The facilities at Abbey view are very good, the hot tub had some use, and the TV channels were the best we have ever found in a holiday let. We have had many holiday cottages, and we find that Abbey view amongst the best. I have read other reviews on this cottage, and wonder if we were at a different location to these, we could nit pick, and search some faults if we tried, but we were on holiday, and didn't want to waste time. We had no rashes from the hot tub, found no hairs in it, in fact it was crystal clear. As we are NOT dog lovers, we were happy with the no pet policy at Abbey view, but not too happy to find a Doberman breeding kennel next door. Although the owners seemed responsible people, we were still aware when the dogs were in the back yard. This is probably the only reason to prevent use coming back to Abbey view.

Unfortunately, Abbey View did not meet our expectations as the level of cleanliness was poor.

The bedside drawers in the main upstairs bedroom were dirty so we didn’t use them during our stay. The washing machine seal was filthy. We had to wash dinner plates before use as some had food on still from previous guests. The hob was very dusty and definitely did not look like it had been cleaned ready for new guests. The toilet seat was loose. We didn’t want to have cleaners visit during our stay so we managed without these issues being rectified although we did make Sykes aware of the issues during our stay. Hopefully, these issues will be rectified before future guests stay although I’m not convinced as the owners response to our concerns was that the property was “spotless” and they had cleaned it themselves. However, on the 3rd and final day of our stay we decided to check the hot-tub in preparation for use on that night, as it was my birthday and we were looking forward to using the hot-tub. Unfortunately the path leading to the hot-tub was very dirty. Once the hot-tub cover was removed we found debris and hairs in the water. The inside edges were dirty also. The hot-tub certainly did not look clean and infact looked rather unhygienic. We contacted Sykes 10am and received a response approx 2PM yet there was no offer to rectify the hot-tub problems so we could have one night of use. Instead we were asked to send photos which we did to the best of our ability. The photographs were sent to the owner the following day, around 24 hours later by which time we had left the property! The owner did not even have the decency to offer an apology or acknowledge that the standards were below acceptable instead making out that we were in the wrong. The owner seemed to assume that we wanted compensation although we had not made such a request at any point! It’s not about the money, it’s about the lack of apology/ownership and a birthday break ruined. We could’ve booked an alternative property without a hot-tub instead of wasting extra money on Abbey View which advertised a hot-tub but certainly did not look like it had been emptied and cleaned in preparation for our stay as is a minimum standard.

The house was ideal for 3 adults and 2 infants.

Nice outdoor space, secluded but with afternoon sun. Hot tub was great, and one of the main reasons for booking - decommissioning this would be a mistake. Good location, close to town and the park. Only negatives were the drive - just knock the wall down, or at least cut down that huge bush, and the fridge door that opened on to the kitchen door and locked with the freezer door, trapping fingers.

Abbey View is a lovely spacious and contemporary holiday home that was well suited to our family group of 4 adults and 2 children.

The property was very clean and well presented and the open plan kitchen / dining area was well equipped and furnished. We enjoyed using the sunny patio and hot tub each evening. The centre of Whitby is within 15 minutes walking distance and the surrounding North Yorkshire coast is easily reached. We used local fish and chip restaurants and also ate at Pizza West and Cosa Nostra, all of which are recommended.

Lovely house, very comfy beds, great hot tub, convenient location, but a few small areas stopped this from being a perfect stay.

Agree with other reviews regarding the notices about the hot tub which overpower the beautiful dining area, similarly the number of notices about the cutlery drawer location. There is no blue recycling bin, no bin bags were left at all and I have never stayed anywhere else and been provided with an already used kitchen sponge. Again as in previous reviews - why not cut the bush back which makes the second entrance to the driveway redundant, it's a 2 minute job!

House was absolutely filthy,tired and scruffy.

Totally not as represented on the website. Nothing in the house like basic cleaning items,had to go shopping to kit it out.Dirty bucket and mop left in bathroom,mirror broken off wall in bedroom, all cupboards filthy inside, Cobwebs everywhere, stained bedding,carpets filthy, the list goes on.We have taken extensive photographs as evidence and made a complaint.

Place needs a dam good clean!

! Nextdoor to a property that breeds Doberman dogs! Hot Tub is terreible!! We got Pseudomonas aeruginosa (hot tub rash) From it because it hadn't been cleaned properly. Complained to The Owner and Sykes. Repy was take us to a small claims court as hot tubs are not covered in there terms & conditions. Will not be booking with Sykes ever again!!!

Parking was not easy and didn't represent the views of the property on the web site.

Only one narrow entramce/exit was able to be used as a shrub was growing over one which would have scratched any car going in or out. Consequently multiple 3 point manoevers were needed to get a second car back out. The original posting claimed parking for 3 cars!!!! Apart from that, the property was well situated in a quiet area with good internal facilities provided.

Overall, the accommodation is very good - the house is very spacious and well located for the town centre.

We liked the mood lighting and the layout of the kitchen and all the appliances worked. The beds and furniture were comfortable and we liked all the TVs! However, this was spoilt a bit by a few issues. Most importantly, we had problems with the hot tub - the water went green by the third day despite us following the 'rules'. This was still the case after someone visited to put more chlorine tablets in it - we have a hot tub at home so we know how to look after one and what to avoid e.g. fake tan. As the tub was one of the main reasons for choosing the property, this was very disappointing, especially as this problem had also been raised in reviews by previous occupants and not been sorted. We were also surprised that there was no 'welcome pack' on arrival and a distinct lack of hand wash and other toiletries in any of the bathrooms. The bath towels provided were small. Although these are minor things, they combined to give the feel that costs were being cut where possible.

Great property, nice and modern, only 10 mins walk into town, 3 car park spaces on the driveway, great hot tub and nice and private garden.

Only downside was the British weather but it was February. Will definitely book again 100%

Lovely spacious property in a great location just 10 mins walk from Whitby centre.

The house was very well equipped with everything we needed - lots of crockery, cutlery, utensils, glassware. We loved the hot tub and kitchen under-lighting and mood lighting. The tea / coffee / squash & biscuits were a nice touch. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

The property we recently rented was greet for our week's stay in Whitby and it's location was absolutely spot on.

The fittings, furniture & provided facilities were very much up to our expectations and we hand an enjoyable relaxing stay. There were, however, several issues & niggles that are well worth mentioning & need attention from the owners. * It came as something of a surprise & not really welcome to find that the living room still contained the fully decked Christmas Tree & several wall hung decorations! Bearing in mind that our arrival was on the 14th January, it seems that someone couldn't be bothered to remove them nearly 2wks after the 12th night. * One toilet roll provided for the four guests. At least one in each toilet. * Two torches provided contained dead batteries * Both remote controls for the living room TV contained either dead or no batteries * Kitchen clock had dead batteries * Ground floor bed had dirty bedding on * Ground floor bedroom door could not be secured due to a broken catch * Ceiling light bulb in kitchen dead. No replacements * can opener was useless * Most importantly, the hot tub did not get serviced during our stay. This resulted in discoloured and smelling water. We contacted the local agent who informed us that the owners did not pay for a service during a weeks stay! In all our years of renting properties with hot tub, this is the first time we have encountered this approach and find it totally unacceptable. We ended up buying our own sterilising and cleaning equipment. Very poor service * As mentioned by other guests, there is a dire need for a dryer in the utility room.

Lovely well maintained property.

Ticked all our boxes. Thank you.

Gorgeous home only thing I can say bad about it was there wasn't any utensils or hardly any toilet roll.

But apart from that it was a great place to stay and would definitely come back.

We enjoyed our stay the view from the bedroom window to the Abbey is beautiful, the heating took some getting used to and we couldn’t find any cutlery apart from that we enjoyed our stay and would recommend staying there

Abbey view was spacious and had everything you could need.

I’ve never been anywhere with so many cups, plates etc. It was nice that the hot tub was covered over but it’s not cleaned/serviced everyday like most other places we’ve stayed. We had a lovely week and the location into Whitby is great, there’s a steep hill on the way back so no good for those with mobility issues.

Your neighbour across road his very obnoxious regarding where he parks his car The things we missed was a tumble dryer as the radiators are on a timer of which we have no control of more cups and pans as 6 cups not enough No information when dustbins need to be emptied so some guests are loving it so they over flow Overall lovely place been two yrs running but unfortunately the cost as gone up £600 for the same week in 2022 think that is being greedy due to pandemic so won’t be booking again

Thus is an excellent cottage and base for your holiday I would highly recommend it .

It was lovely and clean and comfortable and the hot tub was a bonus thanks from the Atkinson family

very nice property, clean and comfortable, all bedrooms good size plenty of storage.

Hot tub was a nice extra but outside area could do with a tidy. Some areas could do with an update but overall we enjoyed our stay. Location was good about a 5-10 min walk down hill into Whitby but a steep walk back. Whitby was lovely plenty of places to eat, had some really nice meals.

Absolutely fab property.

It really has been a great stay with everything you'd expect from a high end listing in Whitby. We've booked again for next year already.

Probably one of the best holiday rentals we have used, we found that Abbey View was located in a good position, and made a handy base for our week in Whitby.

We enjoyed the hot tub, a new experience for us. Would highly recommend this holiday home.

We did not like all the signs regards the hot tub.

There far too many and felt unwelcoming. We did not use the hot tub or sit in garden as we were worried about making noise even in a normal voice. The parking is I feel more for 2 cars not 3 as advertised as mini tree planted at the property get in the way. Don't want Paint scratching. The neighbors also made parking different as well which I feel was on purpose.

There were notices all around the property stating that the neighbours were increasing complaining about noise and that occupants would be asked to leave immediately.

We had two young children in our party and found ourselves constantly asking them to be quiet. We also didn't use the hot tub because if this. There was also a scheduled power cut one morning from 9 until 11am. Apparently letters had been sent to property owners but the information wasn't passed on to us. Given that electricity is the only power source in the property, this was very inconvenient. The property is very nice however, due to being in a residential area, I would not book another stay or recommend it.

Lovely property, would benefit from new pillows on the beds and a clothes horse to dry washing on wet days as no tumble dryer .

No information about bins or recycling when we arrived bins were already overflowing so could use them , we arrived on Friday and could not put rubbish in the bins till late Wednesday afternoon . Parking is an issue drive is very narrow and has bushes as you drive in which are sharp and catch arms,legs and clothes. Two cars are very tight when parked in the drive which you are asked to do. This was made worse by house directly opposite which had adequate parking on their drive but parked a very large car on the road all the time The road is far to narrow to do this and it made it impossible to drive out or into the drive unless you went around the block one way only which was three times longer . Hot tub was really nice especially now it has a gazebo . There is a small alleyway at the side of the house which if covered would make an ideal place to dry off before coming back into the house after using the hot tub. Perhaps an idea for the future. All in all a nice property . There

Great place to stay we would recommend.

We were cautious of noise given it is in a residential area and the hot tub can only be used until 10pm. However the place is great beautifully decorated and in a fab location just a 10 minute walk to Whitby. We would definitely go back.

This house is beautiful inside, very spacious for 6 people.

Was nice to just have a weekend relaxing with the girls. It is in a fabulous location, 5 minutes walking distance into Whitby. I would definitely recommend staying here. This is something I will look to book again in the future.

We loved our stay at abbey view - it was very clean and had everything we needed.

We would recommend this place too all our friends. We can’t wait too book again.

Spent the weekend at the lovely abbey view with my family as part of my 30th birthday celebrations.

We were wowed with how big and beautiful the place was. Plenty of space for everyone and had erverything we needed. The hot tub was an added bonus and enjoyed by everyone. We’re looking to book up again!

2nd Visit to Abbey View just to relax before going back to work after the Christmas holidays.

The house is amazing and just a short walk to the town centre. We love this place and can't wait to come back.

We arrived for the Xmas period and expected no where near what was ready for us!

Great cleanliness and a Christmas tree already put up and decorated. Everything we needed in the draws to entertain family even down to cocktail sticks! We came well over packed to say the least. After a couple of days we rebooked for next Xmas. All our family had a great time on the day and had so much space to entertain. The stay was excellent and you have a beautiful property that nothing on any other site compares to that I have trawled through. The only niggle would be that the cleaning team sat straight outside the house at 0930hrs watching your every move while you check to to make sure you have everything, this was quite off putting. Fab location and we can’t wait to return next year.

The cottage was amazing, clean comfy, cosy and a great price for the weekend!

The hot tub was great too. Highly recommend to anyone thinking of booking this cottage.

Abbey View is an amazing place and exceeded all our expectations, it is furnished to a very high standard and also had a dishwasher that was not listed.

The location is only a short walk from the main town and there is parking at the property for 2 cars. The hot tub of course was the icing on the cake! My granddaughter loved it and didn't want to leave. Hopefully we will be returning.

With the company name Sykes cottages, I was not expecting such a beautiful refurbished modern home with all mod cons and simple grey/white décor.

Large spacious living area, TV's in every bedroom, dining area and lounge! The hot tub was of course a bonus. The location was near Whitby town centre. I'd highly recommend Abbey View. Locally Robin Hood Bay and Staithes are lovely villages worth a visit.

We could not fault the accommodation, the decor in the house was done to a very high standard and thought and consideration for the use of utensils etc taken care of.

We all had a fabulous weekend celebrating a birthday and will be booking again, thank you.

Was everything you needed, Clean and comfortable.

Amazing property could not have been better this house has style comfort in a great position for Whitby town centre the decor is immaculate everything is spotless .

We came to Whitby because we love it the town the harbour the surrounding area is brilliant and this house was the cherry on the cake so do youself a big favour next time you fancy a visit stay here you won't regret it for a minute

My husband and I booked this due to there being a ground floor double room and wet room which was ideal for my elderly father.

The hot tub was an added bonus for my husband and I. The only drawbacks were the hanging space in the wardrobes are no good for long clothes, and the dressing table in the twin room was no good for drying hair as the mirror is so low you cant see yourself, but these are only minor issues, the whole place is totally amazing and we can't wait to come back.

Abbey view is a lovely modern property, 3 big bedrooms and large kitchen diner.

The hot tub is a bonus This is in a great location being only a short walk from whitby and having easy access to local networks - the coastline bus stops 5 mins walk away. Easy drive to many North Moors locations
