Thoroughly enjoyed our stay . Spotlessly clean throughout the property. Amazing view. Not recommend for anyone with mobility problems due to stairs. Easy to get into town on foot . No complaints at all. Thank you hosts

Harbour View House is in a scruffy location but easy walking distance of the attractions of Whitby, with excellent views as the name suggests. The layout worked well for our multi-generational party, allowing everyone their privacy and communal space as needed. The last minute insurance fee request was disappointing and this should be made clear up front. Despite the noticeable smell of pets throughout the property our party were satisfied with their rooms, aside from ourselves in the lower level. As others have noted significant maintenance is well overdue with mould clearly visible throughout the bathroom with an accompanyng strong nauseating odour. The vinyl floor is also heavily stained and uneven as a result of this issue. Communication with the host regarding the washer location was slow and inaccurate but otherwise good leading up to our stay. Once investment in the remedial work has been undertaken this property will be excellent.

Whitby is a lovely place to visit, the house is in a great location to explore all of the sites and has fantastic views across the harbour. We enjoyed our stay.

Just such a lovely place, house is fantastic, lots of room for us all to spread out - it was very clean - Ideal location, close to everything. We had a largely wet week in Whitby but with that fantastic view from the house we still loved it. The hosts are so professional - keeping in contact if you need them. Very handy having 2 car parking spaces. We will definitely go back there again.

House in ideal location with lovely views from balcony over the river and Whitby. Parking for 2 cars a bonus in Whitby. House short walk from the town and its many restaurants and attractions. Great for a family holiday.

Our trip included several different Airbnb stays throughout Yorkshire, this was by far the loveliest home! From every room, we had a stunning view, and as we were traveling in a group, we really enjoyed sitting on the balcony and sitting together in the spacious living room. We found everything easily and loved the location, which was a short walk into town and close to everything. There was plenty of communication and that was helpful. The one thing that was unexpected was the requirement that I had to follow a link and use my credit card to put down a further deposit before getting any check-in information. I’m also an Airbnb host and putting down a deposit is nothing out of the ordinary, but I found it extraordinary to have to go to another website and pull out my credit card and input it, I did not like this. I was lucky I was connected to Wifi in another apartment otherwise I would not have been able to. Apart from this last-minute shock, everything went smoothly!

Plenty of room to relax,a well equipped kitchen, great sleeping arrangements with good sized rooms, parking for two cars (we had one mid size saloon in the garage and one large saloon on the drive). This property may not suit people with mobility issues as its over several floors, and walking into town requires climbing many steps or a long (hilly)walk. But this property was enjoyed by all our group. Would happily return for a longer stay.

The location was fantastic, overlooking the harbour and 5-10 mins walk into town. The house was well equipped and perfect for the size of our group (8), with nice outside seating space to enjoy the sun and view. The lounge and kitchen were a great size and fantastic space for everyone to hang out. Parking wise, the garage and drive were essential. We only had two cars and you'd be pushed to find space nearby for any additional cars. Would thoroughly recommend and would rent this house again. Thank you for a great stay!

Lovely host and building and great location. Cleaning needs more attention and bathroom floors need doing. Plumbing was whistling at night. Dodgy neighbours, had two teens jump the fence into the balcony and try snooping around our door. Neighbour was having weed when we got in. Great space for two cars. Garage door works. Lovely pvt path to the River and the abbey.

Multi generational family of 8, including 2 girls 7 and 10, thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Whitby. However the house was not very clean and most of the surfaces and handles had to be wiped and spilled milk cleaned from fridge. Freezer was also iced up and could not open some drawers. We found tomato seeds on the chopping board, broken glass in the dishwasher filter and chipped items of crockery that was too sharp to use . Ensuite bathroom had an unpleasant smell thought to be as a result of water escaping from the shower tray. Only 2 rolls of lavatory paper were left and we had to purchase more along with washing up liquid for cleaning. Also no hand towel in kitchen. Dust and/sticky marks left on tables and bathroom surfaces. Difficulty opening the key box, only the tallest member of our party could do it. Garage door was broken so unable to be opened, parking for only 1 car and not 2. Our 7 year cut/pinched the top of her leg quite badly sitting on the ill-fitting toilet seat.

The location of the property was great - it was only a few minutes walk into Whitby. The property was good for a bigger group but unfortunately the decor was a bit tired and it wasn’t very clean when we arrived. Host and Stay responded quickly to issues when I raised them but it would have been nice if the property itself was in a better condition. There was a strange smell in the en suite bathroom below the kitchen which didn’t go away even when we aired out the room.

Had a great stay at Harbour View House. Location is perfect for exploring Whitby and surrounding areas. With off road parking removing parking fears, stunning views of the harbour, all home comforts met and space to stretch out as a family, we would recommend the accommodation to others and likeky look to return when visiting the area.

This is an amazing place to stay, the view over Whitby is outstanding, we spent far too long just sat on the balcony watching the world go by. Easy walk into town, off road parking for 2 cars and the kitchen is better equipped than my own, we would highly recommend.

The view was amazing. The location was great. There was direct access from the lower floor balcony (via stairs) to the road that goes directly to the town centre. The house was clean and lovely. The heating system worked without a problem. The living room TV was curved and big with a really good picture quality. It was definitely 5 out of 5 for me.

Lovely house, really clean and a short walk into Whitby although very steep hill (something to be mindful of if you have prams/small children). Great hosts, good communication. We would recommend trying out the Quirky Den just down the hill for craft beers in a cosy pub and the Quayside for fish and chips!

Lovely place and really like Whitby. The neighbours are a bit hostile to holiday rentals on their street. I understand as it drives up house prices, but then Whitby is now mainly a tourist town rather than a working port.

Amazing location and view from the balcony is what makes this place special. When the weather allowed, we sat and watched life on the water below- very relaxing. Everything was spotlessly clean and stair gates throughout made the whole place dog and child friendly.

great location with balcony overlooking upper harbour. living space fine for nine and bedrooms comfortably accommodated our party. you must be able to manage stairs in the house and steps down to the town but you cant get the view without the height. kitchen well equipped. whitby was looking great in the sunshine and everyone from 12 to 80 enjoyed the stay. would recommend.

A beautiful house in a great location for enjoying Whitby. Steps from the rear terrace (garden) lead down to the main route into the town centre. There are a fair few steps but a great shortcut! Easily walkable to centre in about 10mins or less. House had all the amenities you need, including dishwasher, washing machine, sky tv, etc. plenty of sofa space for our family of 7. Beds and bedding were excellent quality and comfortable. The en-suite shower was fantastic! There are four floors but depending on which bedroom you have you only really need to climb two levels. I would thoroughly recommend and would definitely go back.

Accurate description of the house. All instructions and communication were clear. We had plenty of space to relax and the kitchen facilities were excellent. There were no problems experienced throughout our stay, therefore we didn’t need to make contact. Fabulous, spot for us all to be together. Thanks - Pauline and friends.

The best part of the property is its gorgeous view over the harbour. The communications from the agent were also excellent. As an overall proposition, however, it represented very poor value for money. Kitchen equipment was not clean, double bed downstairs in the master room was actually 2 singles and the biggest issue was the accommodation was only let for 1.5 days considering check out was at 10am. We were out of the house at 09:55 and the cleaners were waiting since 09:45 which made us feel extremely rushed. Considering we paid £900 for 1.5 days, I saw little value in the overall proposition. Disappointed.
