    Great stay at Misty Moon. I had to check the bedding labels to see where I could buy it for home. Super comfy. Loved the welcome pack. Thank you.

  • "No tea towel, welcome basket could have had local produce instead of things you can get from any supermarket in the country, cooker hood covered in grease, no cushions fo outdoor furniture but you couldn't use the table and chairs as they were covered in green mould!"

    ! No local information like shops ,walks bus stops etc, dust and cobwebs round lights and radiator s, no hooks on doors to hang wet dowels or dressing gowns, pillow cases too small for pillows . Certainly not a sykes 5 tick property, very poor and I have stayed in many sykes cottages

    I am very sorry to hear about the dissatisfaction with your stay at Misty Moon. We take a lot of pride in keeping the property to a 5 tick standard, as you'll be able to see which reflects in pretty much every other comment/ feedback that we have received. Everything you have stated has been noted of/ heard and we will keep an extra eye on the areas that you've specified to ensure that our high standards remain. I must say however that tea towels are always located in one of the 4 kitchen drawers and that the welcome pack information does include the phone numbers and addresses of multiple grocery stores in the 'local amenities' section, plus below that section a variety of phone numbers and addresses for different types of local Takeaway/ Restaurant places ranging from 'Takeaway Fish and Chips' to 'Indian/Thai Restaurant Takeaways' alongside 'Chinese Restaurant Takeaways' and Pizza Takeaways.' With that said, we appreciate all feedback as it allows us the opportunity to improve so thank you for making us aware of any/ all concerns. Property Owner

  • "An amazing house with everything you need in a perfect location."

    Close enough to walk into town (20-30 mins) but also far enough away from all the crowds. Bus stop to town on the street opposite. Misty Moon is very well equipped and perfect for relaxing after a busy day. Would definitely recommend Misty Moon to others.

  • "Lovely, clean, comfortable and all necessary conveniences."

    All well maintained, including smashing, safely enclosed garden. Easy walk to close by Lidl & Spar. Small children's play area a couple of hundred yards up the street. We definitely made the right choice to plum for this lovely house with the benefit of good parking facility and walk into town, rather than picking more central but without the benefits of parking or garden. Lots of thoughtful touches within the house (coffee maker, a few dishwasher & washing machine tablets) all which added to the convenience of the experience. A dog gate at the bottom of the stairs would be a useful addition, but we managed fine to block the route for our old boy with a dining chair and our cool box

    It needs fixing in place. The main bedroom large window on the left was impossible to let air in on the left hand side. The right hand side was fine. Everything else was top notch! We were really pleased with everything, the owners had obviously made an awful lot of effort to make things as perfect as possible. We stripped the bedding and put it in the black bags, but had none left to put the towels in , some were put in the washing machine for cleaning, and the rest were put in the bathtub. No complaints at all. We would come again next year.

    It’s hard to find fault but if I were to be super picky I would say that the kitchen knives (including the veg peeler) are not sharp, the dining table is cramped and the seats at either end don’t really work because you can’t get your legs under the table. The house is also bit of a trek from the town centre but we knew that in advance so it’s not really a complaint!

The property

Misty Moon is an immaculate semi-detached cottage resting in the seaside and port town of Whitby.

With a wonderful enclosed garden and TV's in all the bedrooms, Misty Moon is an ideal spot to discover the North Yorkshire coast or the nearby North York Moors National Park.

You are greeted to the property by a spacious private driveway, before you step into the hallway where there is room to hang any coats.

To your left there is a amply-equipped kitchen with everything you need to enjoy a self-catering holiday, including great cooking facilities, a large fridge/freezer, a fancy coffee machine and a handy washing machine and dishwasher.

Moving through the property, there is a well-decorated living/dining room with a unique feature wall with the tall ships in Whitby, a spacious dining table for guests to enjoy an evening meal together, and patio doors leading out to the rear garden.

The image on the feature wall is a famous one as it’s been taken by Frank Meadow Sutcliffe and is his personal favourite out of all of Sutcliffe’s work.

The enclosed garden boasts a patio with furniture for an evening of al fresco dining, as well as a swing seat where you can enjoy your morning coffee, an extendable washing line and beautiful flower beds.

When the evening draws to a close, climb upstairs and past the large vinyl image of Whitby at night, to your chosen bedroom which each boast a TV for guests to relax, and storage space for those wishing to unpack.

These three superb bedrooms are complimented by a bathroom, where guests can soak in a long bath or wash their sandy toes under the shower.

8 Convent Way is within walking distance to a supermarket for when you need those self-catering essentials, or when you fancy a delightful evening out, head towards the centre of town to find a range of takeaways, pubs and eateries.

Whitby is a great spot for walkers, who can enjoy the Cinder Hiking Track, the nearby North York Moors, or the famous 199 steps to Whitby Abbey which offers sweeping views of the harbour and the town.

Whitby offers a stunning Blue Flag sandy beach which boasts donkey rides, beach huts and great views of the lighthouse, whilst the shoreside golf course and surrounding museums also attract guests.

Whilst in Whitby don't forget to enjoy a boat ride in search for whales, dolphins, seals and sea birds, or stay on land and take a ride on the Whitby Cliff Lift from the cliff top, down to the beach.

Whitby has something for everyone to enjoy, so for a memorable holiday, choose Misty Moon as your holiday home.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.
