    “The overall cottage was as described, it was lovely and comfortable.”

    My only problem was, reading the reviews about the shower that were a couple of months old, I would have thought the problem with the water and shower would have been fixed by now. The shower head was falling off the wall, making difficult to stand underneath for a shower. But the water from the shower was scalding, it was like boiling water, trying to figure out how to use it, as they're no directions instructions on the tap, was impossible, because the water was so hot the steam filled the ...

    My only problem was, reading the reviews about the shower that were a couple of months old, I would have thought the problem with the water and shower would have been fixed by now. The shower head was falling off the wall, making difficult to stand underneath for a shower. But the water from the shower was scalding, it was like boiling water, trying to figure out how to use it, as they're no directions instructions on the tap, was impossible, because the water was so hot the steam filled the room, then no visibility at all. We phoned Sykes about the issue, someone came out to look at it, but we didn't hear back from the visit, no communication at all. Just trying to have a shower was a chore, using the bath taps trying to wash, was not great, washing is a basic need, which turned out to be impossible. It was hot in Whitby at the time too, so a nice shower would have been great. I would only recommend the cottage if the shower worked, without 3 degree burns.

Robin Hood's Bay 5.5 miles; Scarborough 19.3 miles; Pickering 23 miles; Guisborough 21.5 miles.

The seaside town and port of Whitby lies at the mouth of the River Esk in the Scarborough district of North Yorkshire. Ideally situated for exploring this beautiful part of Yorkshire, the local area hosts an array of activities so you can be sure to get the best out of both the countryside and the coast. From the nearby North York Moors to its Blue Flag beaches, there's something here for everyone. 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.
