"A lovely period house in Whitby ."
It’s well furnished, comfortable warm and well equipped. This was our second stay at Charlotte House and we thoroughly enjoyed it , even though the weather wasn’t brilliant. It’s nicely located , close to the West Cliff for the beach and a short walk down to the harbour. I always look forward to seeing what is in the Welcome packs and there was a nice selection of goodies from Bothams - which is just around the corner. It’s a dog friendly cottage and ours made themselves at home , one particularly enjoyed barking at all the passers by ! The beds are comfortable and 2 nice bathrooms , one of which has a lovely roll top bath . Parking permits are provided for on street and the West Cliff car park .We will definitely be returning for another stay .

"A great house in the heart of Whitby and we loved the sympathetic renovation!"
It had everything we needed plus loads of character. Our favourite rooms were those at the top of the house and we thoroughly enjoyed our candlelight soaks in the bath after busy days on the beach and walking up to Sandsend. We felt our dog was really welcome too. One question- what happened to the welcome pack? We've never stayed anywhere where there wasn't one provided.

"Lovely property in great location."
Lots of space for 4 adults and 2 children. Could get another bed in the top floor bathroom! Hot water is extremely hot, would suggest its turned down if possible. Highly recommended.
-
"We spent Christmas week here and had everything we needed and more!"
It was decorated lovely and felt like a home. We will definitely return. Thank you!
-
"The top bedroom could benefit from blinds or curtains and the smaller bedroom would benefit from a table lamp for reading, but was a great stay otherwise."
Regards, Colin.

"A fabulous house in a great location."
We loved our stay at Charlotte House. Thank you!
-
"A lovely cottage with excellent facilities including good quality bedding and towels."
Great location within easy reach of both shops and West Cliff. We would definitely recommend and we will hopefully return.

"We've had an amazing week here in Whitby."
(6 adults and 1 dog) Charlotte House is beautiful and a credit to the owners, we've loved staying here. Many thanks!
-
"Absolutely fantastic cottage, so comfortable and roomy for 5 adults, 1 baby and 2 dogs."
Been coming to Whitby since I was born. My family are from here and it's by far the best holiday accommodation we have stayed in, will definitely be back. Thank you.
-
"Property was close to the harbour and central for most things."
Very clean and well equipped. We would definitely consider booking again if we returned to Whitby.
-
"The cottage was very clean and very cozy with very comfortable beds and furnishings"
-
"Beautiful property in a great location for access to the town and sea front."
Very tastefully decorated and we soon got used to the quirks of the steps and stairs. (A challenge after bungalow living!!) We had perfect weather which enhanced our time in Whitby itself and on our trips out and about. It was great to find the dog was really provided for too and he’s also had a wonderful active holiday.
-
"Lovely stay thanks with tasteful furnishing and comfy clean beds."
Personally felt cold in the house but couldn’t turn the heating up
-
"Hi, a beautifully spacious and characterful place in a great location for sure - the only negative aspect was the lack of proper curtains/blinds in the second floor bedroom."
The dawn sunlight had me waking up every morning around 5-5.30am and so was an unwelcome disruption to any restful night’s sleep (I alone was in that top bedroom). Other than that - fantastic!
-
"Perfect location to visit Whitby, fabulous house, beautifully kept, everything was perfect"
-
"We had a fantastic holiday and the house was beautiful."
Everything was well presented, the house was warm, cosy and of a high quality.
-
"This was a real gem of a house, with everything that makes it perfectly imperfect, a home and not a holiday let."
We (family of four, the dog and the visiting godmother) had a fab week - superbly cosy and the central heating meant we didn’t even use the woodburner
-
"Lovely house, very well presented with all you could ask for, would highly recommend a stay."
Heating operating 24-7 therefore always cosy although set around 20 degrees, fine for us as not liking it too hot, there is always the back up of the log burner for a cosy evening.Beautiful walk in shower with plenty of hot water that never ran out. The only criticism is you should have 2 keys available, my wife was I’ll during our stay and I either had to lock her in when going out or leave her in bed with the door unlocked. The door has only one deadlock and no other means of escaping from the building in an emergency, the small courtyard is bolted shut to outside, apart from this comment a wonderful holiday let.
-
"Great accommodation nice clean and comfy would live there given the chance a credit to you all."
-
"The cottage was beautiful and kept to a high standard, it had everything we could need."
Wonderful ambience, we will definitely be returning for a longer stay.
-
"A lovely cottage and would certainly return."
There was a problem with the central heating which was reported to Sykes during our stay. As the weather was mild it wasn’t a problem however had it been colder then there would have been an issue. First floor bathroom has a lovely large shower but no grab rail and/or non slip mat. Sykes customer service was excellent.
