  • "A lovely home from home with everything you need for a successful break."

    The location is ideal for access to Whitby town centre and harbour only a 5 minute walk. We would definitely book this cottage again.

  • "Cottage was great location Offstreet private parking a bonus Loved watching ..."

    Cottage was great location Offstreet private parking a bonus Loved watching the trains Very clean on arrival, had everything we needed It was nice and warm throughout We found the settee a little uncomfortable as it’s quite wide, and if you aren’t very tall, your feet, don’t touch the floor The floorboards in the living room Creak terribly did cause quite a bit of disturbance, first thing in the morning or late at night when one of us had gone to bed As the creaking from above was very loud However, I don’t know what can be done about floorboards It’s such a shame that they are like this as otherwise the Cottage would’ve been perfect And thank you for the welcome pack

    I am so sorry that you found the settee a little uncomfortable. The footstool can be moved and maybe that would have made it a little more comfortable. I will be looking into the wooden floor in the kitchen and get the problem resolved. Thank you so much for staying at Stokers Rest and I hope you will come back soon. Property Owner

    Thank you for your feed back. Sorry to hear the toilet was making a noise, our maintenance team have fixed it and its like a new toilet. If you ever have any problems in the future staying at Stokers Rest please just give us a call and we will send someone out to fix it. Like all holiday lets they are houses and unfortunately these things happen. Property Owner

  • "This is a perfect place to stay for the town of Whitby ."

    Lovely location with parking, very close to town centre, easy walk to shops. The owners have thought of everything for a very comfortable stay, above and beyond really. All seems newly furnished, beds comfortable and nice soft bed linen. We loved the steam train that passed by too, easy view from patio garden. There are a few trains pass by , but its not an issue, really quiet location. View of Whitby Abbey from upper windows , really amazing. The only fault was towel rail in cloakroom toilet was not very secure, we just left a note for the caretakers attention. The postcode location takes you there, but the cottage is down the slope drive and parking is alongside cottage, at the bottom, not infront, but easy access, our car never left , we walked everywhere.

    Thank you so much for your feed back I really appreciate you taking the time. The clock room towel rail was fixed straight after your visit. I am so sorry it wasn't fixed before, I am not sure why it wasn't. I think it maybe easily knocked and in the quieter months I will be looking at getting a heated towel rail, so this won't happen again. I look forward to welcoming you back soon. Property Owner

  • "We had a wonderful week in Whitby, just before Easter 2023 and our accommodation exceeded expectations."

    Stoker’s Rest is a neat, self-contained end-terrace in what appears to be a block of purpose-built holiday lets, styled as railway cottages. It is modern, well appointed, comfy & warm with the added bonus of a dedicated parking space. Plenty of space for my wife & I and our 2 teenage boys. The 2 bedrooms are downstairs with access to the rear yard, a couple of metres from the railway track and every few hours we were treated to a vintage steam engine drive by, with a backdrop of the bay & church & Abbey skyline. We appreciated the lovely Welcome Basket and found the lounge, diner, kitchen area easy to use and well laid out. It’s a short walk into town for some of the best fish & chips you’ll ever eat! Recommend a walk to Robin Hood’s Bay and trip to Goathland/Beck Hole & waterfall as well as Saltburn & Runswick Bay. Bring sunnies & hat & gloves for your walks as the weather can be changeable (it’s North Yorks, so you know that of course). Thanks for a lovely stay!

    Thank you so much for your kind feed back, I am so pleased to hear you had a wonderful time. We look forward to welcoming you all back soon. Property Owner

  • "As stated in the Visitor Book, we have stayed in many properties in Whitby since coming from 2015 onwards, and Stokers Rest rates as one of the best."

    The decor was simple but so relaxing and we had the added bonus of seeing the steam train outside, as well as hearing an owl out the front. The welcome basket was a wonderful additional touch which wasn't in all the properties we have stayed in. The bed was extremely comfortable and in the morning a nice hot shower and a 'proper' coffee, started the day off so well. We hope to be back soon.

    Thank you so much for your positive feed back. So glad you enjoyed the coffee and welcome basket. we look forward to welcoming you back soon. Property Owner

The property

Stoker’s Rest is a charming, upside-down accommodation situated in central Whitby.

Offering easy access to Whitby’s amenities, including the glorious beach, Stoker’s Rest is a great base for families and couples looking to make the most of the Yorkshire coastline.

Enter into the spacious reception hall where you can leave your boots and jackets before making your way upstairs to the open-plan living space.

Bright and airy, here you can socialise as a group, coming together on the sofa whilst the electric fire keeps you toasty, or perching at the dining table whilst the chef of the group takes over the kitchen, offering all the essentials including a washer/dryer, so don’t bring your entire wardrobe!

The bedrooms are situated downstairs and offer a king-size and twin, each neutrally presented and serviced by a bathroom with choice of bath and shower over.

To the outside rests a little patio area with picnic bench, ideal for lunches in the sunshine.

When you’re ready to explore, Whitby makes a fantastic holiday base; take the short walk over to Whitby Beach, a glorious sandy expanse from which you access West Pier and see the fantastic lighthouse.

Be sure to visit the remarkable Whitby Abbey, uncover decades of history at Whitby Museum, climb the famous 199 steps or embark on a trail along The Cinder Track.

If exploration takes you further afield, explore Robin Hood’s Bay and expect to find a stunning beach, a choice of cafés and the popular Robin Hood’s Bay Museum.

There’s plenty to jam into your holiday itinerary whilst staying at Stoker’s Rest.

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. Close to the Robin Hood's Bay, rich in heritage, wonders and scenic spots, and in easy reach of the bustling towns of Scarborough and Middlesbrough, Whitby is a prime location for exploring all of the delights that Yorkshire has to offer.
