We had a nice stay at Mallard Cottage. A bonus was the allocated parking space and it is ideally located within easy walking distance to the town centre and shops. The beds were comfortable but the pillows were of poor quality and very soft and small. The bathrooms were good and the water pressure was very good. However, some of the grouting and sealant around the showers and bath needs attention and the shower screens had soap marks and mould on them. The lounge/kitchen area was comfortable with a great smart tv. It was well equipped but some of the crockery and pots were not clean and the oven door and trays were dirty. The outside area for the property needs attention. There were weeds in the artificial grass area to the rear and in the paved areas. At the front of the property it was a similar situation in the planted beds and paving. A good tidy up here would make all the difference to first impressions on arrival.

We had a great stay at the property. The house is approximately a five minute walk from the center of Whitby and all it's amenities. The property itself is great for a break at the coast with comfortable bedrooms and a good kitchen and living area. Areas within close walking distance for on street parking if more than one car is present. The host was very responsive and had a great property.

A lovely little house in a great location with all of Whitby a short walk away. As it states there are numerous steps so you must be comfortable climbing multiple flights of stairs in one go. We were aware of this at booking and no problem for us. No storage space in the kitchen at all other than in fridge which wasn't great for a 9 night stay but we worked around it by putting jute bags on the floor behind the dining table for cereals etc. Fantastic water pressure in the shower was a bonus. A lot to do locally. Without car recommend walks to Robin Hood Bay and bus back and to Sandsend out to castle there and back (both c.15km). Also walk from Grosmont to Goathland (Heartbeat and Harry Potter) which can do on the steam train but quite pricey. We drove to Grosmont. Also car to Dalby Forest, Falling Foss or Wykeham Lakes. Escape room and puzzle rooms at latter for rainy days as well as loads of water sports. Also 10 pin bowling etc at Scarborough for rainy day. A fantastic holiday!

A well-kept apartment with just the right amount of space in the rooms for a quiet weekend with friends. On-street parking needs quite a bit of luck, but that’s due to North Yorkshire Council’s annoying parking policy in our nicest seaside towns (particularly annoying for out-of-town locals, like me!). Everything is comfortably walkable from the apartment and our queries were dealt with promptly.

Mallard Cottage is a really lovely modern property. It is located centrally in Whitby and was nice and quiet when we stayed. I would reiterate what other reviewers have said, that there are lots of steps - up to the property and then 3 flights inside the property as the lounge/kitchen is on the top floor. so ensure you are fit enough to stay at the property. The garden is a nice space to chill out with comfy garden furniture. Would stay again.

Beautiful accommodation. Everything was of the highest quality from the blinds, furnishings, mattresses and kitchen. super clean - everything looked brand new. Ideal location only a few minutes from Whitby Harbour. Nice outdoor space. Felt right at home, comfortable and had everything included that we could ever need. Only down side (which is at no fault to the host) there are quite alot of steps leading up to the property. Not a big deal for us but had parents with us in their late 60s who found it strenuous at times. Great place and would definitely return in the future, hosts were so helpful and responded quickly to any queries we had. would 100% recommend this place to others. thank you 😊

Was a little difficult to find as the address is incorrect, but once found a lovely house and we had a lovely time! Living area is on the top floor so a little tricky with little ones but great that a stair gate was provided. Overall, a lovely stay and find!

Lovely property, comfortable, and great location with the town centre, train station, beach, and parks just a short walk away. Kitchen well stocked but no cupboard space for your own food etc. There are three flights of stairs to access to property which we didn't see mentioned on the description or photos. We were pleased to find there was a parking space, as the online description describes 'on street parking' and the welcome pack advised parking a few streets away.

Mallard Cottage was ideal for our group of three female friends. We had a room each and two bathrooms to share. The allocated parking space was brilliant. We loved the contemporary design and there was everything we needed in the kitchen area. Not that we needed to cook a meal on our short stay because the fish and chips in Whitby is very good and there are other lovely places to eat out.

Nice property about 5 mins walk from the train station. It is in a quiet location, spread over 3 floors with lounge and kitchen on the top floor. Furnishing were very tasteful. Garden was a very nice bonus. We had issues with car parking allocated space as the security post was damaged so it couldn't be removed. Apart from this we were very pleased with the property.

We had a wonderful stay at this coastal house for my boyfriend's birthday weekend. The house was impeccably clean, beautifully located, and provided everything we needed for a memorable getaway. It's definitely a 10/10 from us—highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful escape super close to Whitby harbour.

Immaculate property in great location 2 mins from train station. The property felt more like a home not a rental, with little touches such as cosy throws pictures & ornaments. Spotlessly clean, comfortable beds, warm & cosy. Lovely bathrooms with powerful showers. Quite a few steps to property & as accommodation is on 3 floors not ideal for anyone with mobility issues but great for us. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic location and lovely stay! We felt right at home and I certainly could have actually lived there permanently! Haha! Nice and clean and modern with a walk to the main part of Whitby just a stone's throw away. We're planning on booking again in the summer. The perfect accommodation!

Nice place to stay, very happy. Its close to the station and bus stop too if you are on public transport. If you have limited mobility however i would advise against it as the apartment is up some steps and the apartment itself is over three floors. Not an issue for me but something to keep in mind.

Had a bit of trouble finding it as the advert and the welcome brochure had different postcodes but once we got the correct one it was super easy to find. Had a car park space which was very handy. A nice 10 minute walk down to the town. The place was lovely, had everything you needed, very tidy! Would stay again if we were to come back! Thank you!

Lovely apartment near the centre of town but in a quiet location. The flat was very clean and is well equipped and comfortable. There are a lot of steps up to the property and within it. This didn't bother us but would be an issue for someone with a mobility problem. There is a dedicated parking space for the flat which was a big bonus. We had a great visit and would recommend this flat for a visit to Whitby.

The Unit was fantastic, just as described. Dues to a medical issue I wish I had been made aware that there were many steps just to get to the front door. Although the unit was three floors, just getting to the unit from the street level was strenuous. Very Physical

Lovely townhouse . A lot of steps up to the property then a lot of steps inside . I couldn’t find a bin for this property even though the host told me it was behind the car park . There were many bins but not numbered . We were told there was on street parking on a first come first served basis . We weren’t lucky to get any so paid 27.00 for three days parking at the Endeavour car park . I was confused though as there was a marked bay for the property but we were not allowed to park there . I queried this and was told yes it was on street parking as previously told . Still not sure why I couldn’t use the EMPTY parking spot for the house

We enjoyed our stay at Mallard cottage. The place was new and clean and a brilliant location just a short walk to the center. The parking space was a nice addition, it would have been very difficult to find street parking there. With kids, the outside space was a nice addition too. It would have been nice to have had a bit more flexibility with check-in time, even if we had to pay. I didn't love being hounded for the insurance deposit, but it does mention it in the listing. All in all, we enjoyed our stay, thank you!

I've had the pleasure of staying in Whitby many times, this ranks as one of the best. Very close to the Town centre, a Co-Op within a five min walk. Very quiet location. Would highly recommend.

The accommodation was really clean and perfect location for wandering in to Whitby but unfortunately there was no available parking space as advertised. This was extremely inconvenient with a small baby and the amount of belongings that needed to be carried some way. What’s more, I enquired specifically about the parking before arrival and was told there was space for one car.

Lovely quite, comfortable house in a great location just 5 mins walk from Whitby centre with own parking space and good strolls about town going through the park opposite car park entrance. The start of the Cinder Path walkway to Scarborough closeby. Great for doing the North Yorkshire Moors railway to Goathland and Pickering. We had a very nice family break.

A very well appointed and smart house in a location just 5 mins walk from the town centre with an invaluable dedicated parking space. May not be suitable for those with accessibility issues as the entrance is up about three flights of stairs. The communication from the owners was excellent and the online house and area guidebook was extremely useful. Would definitely recommend this house.

We had a lovely few days stay in Mallard House and would definitely look to return. The property is in a fantastic location to the centre of Whitby and the apartment is modern and in excellent condition. The outside space was a nice surprise and a lovely suntrap. There are some steps to the property and the property is over 3 floors, which although not a problem for us, could be for someone with limited mobility.

A lovely, modern house with plenty of space. Beds are comfortable and the top floor lounge/kitchen is a great space in the evening. We liked the sunny deck outside too. A five-minute walk to the harbour, bars, restaurants and shops. Perfect.

The place was clean and tidy and in a fantastic location. Close enough to nip into town but far enough away that you don't hear all the comings and goings at night. There are lots of steps leading up to the house, which could pose a problem for some with babies and prams if you don't have a car to leave the pram in. The house has everything you need and the hosts were so quick with communication and able to help if needed.
