  .. great location and facilities. Couple of little moans The cottage was freezing when we arrived and the fire in the lounge isn't great. On the last day when we removed the covers from the bedding the pillows and duvet and found underneath was rather stained.The sofa has seen better days too.

  With Whitby being ancient and all car parking was one of the main reasons for booking Moor Croft. A remarkable transformation from garage to neat cosy residence, thanks again for the weeks stay.

• "Lovely clean, comfortable cottage with a nice homely feel."

  Liked the quiet location, yet only a few minutes walk into the centre of Whitby. Having its own car parking space was a great bonus. Very friendly & helpful owner. I would stay there again & will be recommending it to other people.

• "Lovely comfy cottage ideally placed for all amenities."

  The garage across the road was useful for milk and newspapers and milk in the fridge when we arrived was great along with the welcome cakes. Parking space was fine for our car. We would definitely go again. Just a suggestion (not a criticism), the shower is over the bath and as there is a shower screen not a curtain we both found it difficult to climb out of the bath without something to hold on and steady ourselves, a grab handle on the wall by the door would be very helpful . Thank you for a lovely week and the weather behaved itself as well.

• "Such a lovely cottage in a great location."

  Everything you could need in a home away from home was provided. We have a two year old & not having to bring a high chair or travel cot was invaluable. On site parking was a huge bonus too. The walk in to town takes around 5 minutes but it is down a steep incline, therefore if you have mobility issues (or kids in buggies like we did) just be aware/prepared. We didn’t mind the exercise though! We met Kate (one of the owners) on our last day, very friendly & helpful. We were able to purchase a parking permit from her for the day so we could pop down in to Whitby for the day before heading off. Would highly recommend and visit this property again if staying in the area.

  The accommodation is cosy and comfortable with the bonus of on-site parking. The owners and neighbours are friendly, welcoming and went out of their way to ensure our stay was trouble-free. We certainly anticipate returning to this property to enjoy the quaint and quirky town of Whitby and the surrounding coastal attractions.

• "Great place and location but disapointing that the central heating times were 'fixed and locked' ."

  Not really a problem in Spring but wouldnt want to go there in Winter

  The central heating has sessional settings and is therefore different during winter months. But there is also an electric fire for extra heat. Property Owner

• "We had a pleasant short break."

  The cottage is a lovely size for 2 people with ample space. The furnishing are comfortable and the original artwork brings the property character. The water temperature is restricted and the central heating only comes on twice a day and we unfortunately arrived at the end of a very blustery cold storm. A couple of fluffy blankets would be most welcomed! The car space was fine for my Peugeot 105. The evenings and nighttime were very quiet, you wouldn’t know you were next door to a fire station and ambulance depot! All in all a pleasant stay.

  Thank you for your feedback. I'm very sorry that the heating was not adequate for your stay; to clarify, the heating comes on for a couple of hours, 3 times daily and there is also an electric fire in the lounge. The water in the cottage is not temperature restricted. We are sorry to hear you were chilly in the evenings and had we been made aware during your stay, we absolutely would have resolved these issues for you. Thank you again for your review.

  The welcome basket was a really thoughtful touch - milk in the fridge for that cup of tea when you arrive, and lots of helpful information to help you get your bearings. Perfect location wise and the car parking space took away all the stress that could have bought without it. Thank you for a fabulous stay!

• "We had a really lovely stay in this beautiful cottage."

  It’s was really well located, just a short walk to the harbour and town centre. Really close to Pannett Park and the museum, my daughter loved seeing the (incredibly tame) squirrels on our walks in the park. The house is warm, comfortable and well equipped, hosts are friendly, and live over the road if there are any issues. On-site parking is a real bonus in Whitby and was one of the main reasons we chose the property, however we would come again because the house is so lovely. Many thanks for a relaxing and comfortable stay.

• "Loved the cottage and it's very convenient location to the harbour area where one has numerous choices of bars, pubs, eateries and general shops."

  The accommodation was very cosy and well equipped. Ok, it didn't have a dish washer but to be honest that was not an issue for us. The owners, Kate and James, were most welcoming and very charming hosts. The accommodation comes with a dedicated parking space adjacent to it within the private courtyard. This is a huge plus. It was great just being able to leave the car at the cottage and wander around the town. Some guests have commented on the size of the car parking space. Don't worry, the space can accommodate a larger than average sized vehicle. We had no trouble parking our SUV. Just unload first, then reverse in, no problem. We will most certainly be booking this cottage again. A gem of a place.

  The other reason for booking was the off street parking space (which was tiny but adequate- empty the boot before reversing in!), a boon in a busy town like Whitby. Overall we had a great time out and about and enjoyed the time indoors too.

• "Unfortunately there was a lack of attention to cleanliness with a lot of cobwebs, dust, dead insects and dirty carpets."

  A lot of the furniture was vintage so quite musty. We agree with a previous comment about the cats and although there is a note about this, if you wish to the leave window open at night (in the main bedroom) or on warm day you can’t do as they try to get in, which they did. On the plus side the house in a good location with a parking space, was spacious for 4 with comfortable beds and nice artwork. We just wish it had been clean as we would not recommend in the condition we found it.

  We are sorry to hear that you didn’t like the cottage. We take great pride in the way we present the property using genuine art and some antiques and it seems to be well received by our other guests. We clean the property ourselves, rather than using agency staff and so know it to be clean before our guests arrive and are therefore upset by your allegations that the property was anything less than well prepared - had you raised the matter at the time we might have been able to look at dealing with the issues you allege. Sadly, the cats have historically been used to living around the cottage and some guests tempt them in, but it is simple to be able to open the Velux rooflights, or the tops of the sash windows, without them coming in. We give guests a heads-up about the cats, but unfortunately the poor animals are confused by the conflicting approaches taken to them. Property Owner
