Description

Occupying an enviable location in the heart of the bustling North Yorkshire town of Whitby, Porters Rest is a well-presented terraced cottage which enjoys superb views over Whitby Harbour and is the perfect setting for a family holiday.

Inside, you are immediately greeted by a welcoming open-plan living space where the inviting seating area encourages guests to kick off their shoes and sit back and relax on the stylish sofa in front of the Smart TV or enjoy time together soaking up the delightful views over to Whitby Harbour.

When it’s time to eat, simply step into the well equipped kitchen area which has all that is needed to produce hearty food for the whole family and the adjoining dining area is set up ready to host long and enjoyable meals.

If the weather allows, then step out onto the patio area which has furniture on it just waiting for guests to take a seat and enjoy time eating and drinking alfresco while enjoying the views and breathing in the fresh North Yorkshire air.

Come bedtime and guests can make their way to the lower-ground-floor which houses the property’s two beautifully presented bedrooms, a twin and a double, together with a family bathroom which completes the appealing accommodation.

In the morning, you’re in the perfect spot to get out and about exploring with Whitby on the doorstep with beaches, a lighthouse, a great selection of shops and eateries to discover as well as the opportunity to take coastal cruises to look out for whales, seals and all kinds of exotic wildlife.

Check out Whitby Abbey which is famous for its 199 steps and is steeped in history and you won’t want to miss a visit to the Captain Cook Memorial Museum.

The North Yorkshire Moors are on the doorstep so it’s worth lacing up your hiking boots and heading out for some fresh air and spectacular views.

Towns nearby worth jumping in the car for a day out include Scarborough, York and Guisborough.

A trip to Porter’s Rest will leave you with happy memories and wanting to come back time and time again to this beautiful region.

We have stayed in this property many times and it is an absolute gem, parking at the property is a bonus and it is convenient for everything.

Stayed at a few of these railway cottages and 2nd time at this one.

The cottage is very clean, well equipped and comfortable with everything you need for a relaxing stay. Only a few minutes walk from the centre of Whitby which has everything on your doorstep. Having onsite parking is a real bonus along with the small front garden when the weather permits. Lovely to watch the steam trains go past and various activities on the river. Would definitely recommend

Great value, clean and exceptionally comfortable property.

Loved the little garden, the upside down design and the trains going right past the windows. Nice little extra touches, cake, tea and coffee and a pint of milk. Messaged us early to tell us the cottage was ready, a lovely welcoming touch. We really enjoyed our stay, and will be back.
