Mr Nicklin June 2021

“Spotless property with allthe comforts of home, loved the flowers and fresh fruit awaiting us.”

Being right net to the North Yorkshire Moors Railway its a steam buffs dream location but it's well within reach of the twon centre. This was our second visit to all abourd and I'm sure we will be back. Superb week in an outstanding property.

- Mr Nicklin, June 2021
Mrs Barks June 2021

“The cottage was spotlessly clean.”

It was really well equipped, in a great location and had a parking space which was very welcome in Whitby. The little touches from the owners were much appreciated - you could tell that they really cared about their property

- Mrs Barks, June 2021
Mrs Tyrrell May 2021

“Excellent location.”

Private parking space. 5 minute walk to the centre of whitby. Ideal if you like the steam engines, as they go past meters from the back patio. Comfortable, clean and all mod cons.

- Mrs Tyrrell, May 2021
Mrs Thomas May 2021

“The Cottage was spotlessly clean.”

Everything you need. Big bonus having parking. Also only 5 min walk to Restaurants and shops.

- Mrs Thomas, May 2021
Mrs Pounder May 2021

“Excellent location.”

.private parking which is super important in Whitby..and great view of the steam trains

- Mrs Pounder, May 2021
Mrs Firth April 2021

“Excellent communication with Sykes cottages, will definitely use again.”

However the owners of this house must be congratulated for their attention to detail. It’s the small things; hotel quality coat hangers, a decent iron, effective hair dryer, sharp knives and for the first time in many years of self catering a steamer. Well done, spotlessly clean and exceptionally welcoming. Thank you

- Mrs Firth, April 2021
Mr Hawkes October 2020

“When we arrived we walked into a lovely clean, safe and warm environment and the house stayed warm all the week we were there.”

The kitchen was very well equipped, it made a change to find that all the knives in the knife block were nice and sharp and a sharpener in the drawer to keep them that way, all too often that is not the case also plenty of pots, pans and glasses etc. All in all we spent a very pleasant week in Whitby at this house, close enough to the centre to be handy for shops and restaurants but far enough away to be nice and quiet. I would highly recommend this property.

- Mr Hawkes, October 2020
Mrs Harwood September 2020

“Brilliant little cottage in a great location.”

Everything you need and more. Welcome pack, dog biscuit, Neflix, WiFi, ear plugs (for trains and seagulls). Neither bothered us. Great local walks and near to the the town and harbour. Very very clean and cosy. The train was fascinating to see but not very frequent. The owners went out of there way to help with a local purchase. Parking is a bonus in Whitby as well. We had a lovely week and would stay in All Aboard again given the opportunity.

- Mrs Harwood, September 2020
Mrs Bruce August 2020

“A perfect base in Whitby.”

The cottage was extremely clean and well equipped. The trains passing at the bottom of the garden were a highlight of the holiday.

- Mrs Bruce, August 2020
Mr Davies July 2020

“The owners of this cottage go the extra mile and make you feel they really care about your comfort with nothing missing and lots of extras that you don’t get elsewhere.”

It’s spotlessly clean and truly home from home . They even leave you earplugs to try and stop the noise of the early morning seagull cry’s , we didn’t use them but they are there if you need them.

- Mr Davies, July 2020
Mr Mulheron February 2020

“Ideal in every form and I am sure to return.”

- Mr Mulheron, February 2020
Mrs Revell January 2020

“Holiday cottage was exceptionally clean and in the right position to enjoy the centre of Whitby, plenty of useful information books and leaflets on hand.”

We will return again in the future.

- Mrs Revell, January 2020
Mr Love November 2019

“We had a really nice break at this cottage which was very well equipped, clean, warm and very comfortable, we loved the fact that we could walk into Whitby which had lots to do and see.”

We were amazed at the small details like lots of toilet rolls, soap, shower gel, washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets, coffee pods for machine, milk, tea, coffee, bin liners, dog biscuits, even shopping bags. We would highly recommend this cottage to anyone wanting a break in Whitby.

- Mr Love, November 2019
Mr Legge October 2019

“A fantastic place.”

Will definitely be back.

- Mr Legge, October 2019
Mr Lamond October 2019

“First of all to say that the house was excellent all round is an understatement.”

It has the wow factor as soon as you enter. It is very well situated being just a short walk/hop into the centre of town and to the railway and bus stations. The Coop supermarket just 5 minutes by foot away is well stocked. The location means that you can head out of town in several directions quite quickly.Could not find fault with the property.

- Mr Lamond, October 2019
Mr Adshead October 2019

“This property was one of the best we have stayed in.”

The cleanliness was superb, the touches added by the owner with fruit and flowers was appreciated and the location was great for access to the town without a car being needed. Being right next to the steam railway was a bonus.We would certainly want to stay there in the future.

- Mr Adshead, October 2019
Mrs Farmer September 2019

“Perfect stay!”

The cottage was well equipped, clean, warm and in an ideal location with parking. We loved it so much we've already booked for next year!

- Mrs Farmer, September 2019
Mr Goodwin August 2019

“Fantastic accommodation in a brilliant location.”

This is by far the best holiday cottage we have stayed in, in over 30 years. The owners went above and beyond to provide everything we could want, even left biscuits for the Dog.

- Mr Goodwin, August 2019
Ms Bowyer July 2019

“A comfortable cottage in an excellent location (very handy for shops and transport for those holidaying without a car - the passing steam trains are a bonus!”

). The cottage has been very recently and tastefully modernised. It was scrupulously clean and very well equipped, with additional welcoming touches which were much appreciated.

- Ms Bowyer, July 2019
Mrs Tyrrell May 2019

“Brilliant base.”

Fab views! Clean and airy! Comfy beds. Little gift of fruit and flowers on arrival! Definitely going back to this place. For train lovers the steam engines run by closely!!!

- Mrs Tyrrell, May 2019
Mr Preston May 2019

“A fabulous property in a great location, spotlessly clean with a lot of nice touches left to make your stay an absolute pleasure.”

- Mr Preston, May 2019
Mrs Macphee May 2019

“All Aboard is a very good holiday cottage.”

the living here is easy.The kitchen is very very well equipped with every thing you could possibly enjoyed the nice new king size bed. perhaps we could have preferred less powerful air freshener and strongly perfumed hand wash.

- Mrs Macphee, May 2019
Mrs Nimmo April 2019

“Another great week in All Aboard really nice coming into flowers, tea/coffee and fruit bowl, bedding really clean and fresh, disappointed we're unable to book for September as fully booked, need to be quicker as getting busier.”

- Mrs Nimmo, April 2019
Mr Hutchinson April 2019

“This holiday rental is fabulous, it has its own private parking space too which is a bonus in Whitby.”

The cottage is spotless throughout and spacious too and it has everything you could wish for. The beds are comfy with lovely bedding and really nice towels in the bathrooms . The owners have really put a lot of thought and hard work into this place. Yes some nights you do hear the odd seagull but they even provide ear plugs for this if needed be but we never used them as it wasn't a problem for us during our 4 night stay. It is only a short gentle stroll into the main parts of Whitby. We would highly recommend this place to everyone it is FABULOUS. Thank you for our stay x

- Mr Hutchinson, April 2019
Miss Maloney February 2019

“All Aboard is a fantastic place to stay, ideally located for the centre of whitby, or to use as a base for exploring the local villlages along the east coast.”

It's a little gem.

- Miss Maloney, February 2019
Miss Wilson November 2018

“Great property in a good location, lovely views over whitby and the railway line, watching the steam trains, 2 minute walk to town centre, and parking space at property!”

Just lovely!

- Miss Wilson, November 2018
Miss Champness-smith October 2018

“Sounds like a cliche but this really was home crom home.”

Cottage was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. Amazing views and it was lovely to watch the steam trains passing by. Very welcoming touches on arrival - tea/coffee/milk & biscuits, bowl of fruit and a lovely vase of flowers on the table. I would definitely recommend it. We looked to book for the same dates next year, but unfortunately the price has more than doubled which has put it out of our price range.

- Miss Champness-smith, October 2018
Mr Throup September 2018

“The property was excellent, the views over the railway to the marina and Abbey beyond were pure Whitby.”

(Ignore the Car Park) The cottage had all mod cons and they all worked.

- Mr Throup, September 2018
Mrs Nimmo September 2018

Mrs Harper July 2018

“A few minor points, because all of the electrical equipment is in the open plan ...”

A few minor points, because all of the electrical equipment is in the open plan living area this space would benefit from a fan as can get very hot- luckily we took one with us Would be a nice touch to have a visitors book we have found other people’s comments helpful in planning days out and where to eat If your going to leave information on walks make sure they are up to date ie number for padlock on gates

- Mrs Harper, July 2018
Mr Reading June 2018

- Mr Reading, June 2018
Mr Nicklin June 2018

“Waking to a steam train under the front window, what could be better?”

You get plenty of waving practice with this property responding to all the railways passengers on the north Yorkshire Moors Railway. Having its own parking and I easy reach of the town centre All Aboard is a great base for seeing Whitby and the surrounding area

- Mr Nicklin, June 2018

- Ms Hawkhead, February 2018
Mrs Hayes January 2018

Milk for tea and biscuits were a lovely touch too after a long drive. My husband and dog really enjoyed themselves and although we did not use them the picnic bag and selection of games were really lovely unexpected surprises.

The seaside town and port of Whitby lies at the mouth of the River Esk in the Scarborough district of North Yorkshire. Ideally situated for exploring this beautiful part of Yorkshire, the local area hosts an abundance of activity so you can be sure to get the best out of both the countryside and the coast. From the nearby North York Moors to its Blue Flag beaches, there's something here for every interest and time of year. Amongst its many attractions, Whitby holds a charming atmosphere, home to winding streets and hidden alleys, where you can find a wide selection of eateries and shops scattered amongst them. Take a trip to the picturesque harbour and lighthouse to watch the sun set, or get involved in some whale watching or a coastal cruise to watch the creatures up close. Climb the famous 199 steps to the Whitby Abbey to immerse yourself with history, or visit the Captain Cook Memorial Museum presenting historical and ethnographic exhibition about Cook himself. Hosting an abundance of leisure facilities, opportunities to explore the natural lands, and plenty of coastal delights, Whitby offers something for everyone.
