Stayed May 29, 2026Loved the location, especially sitting on the balcony watching activity on the harbour. Homely & impressively thought through with details such as the books being relevant to the location and a pair of binoculars conveniently placed near the balcony. Enjoyed being in the heart of the town which gave a base for walking around the area. Smooth booking and checking in process. Comfortable bed and good shower. Questions answered quickly by the host.

Stayed Apr 12, 2026Stunning Accomodation that can’t be faulted. So quiet, calm and restorative. Extremely comfortable bed and seating, fabulous shower. So lovely waking up to the sounds of the waves on the beach. Would not stay anywhere else in Whitby. I do have osteoarthritis in the hips and back but managed the steps up to the upper floor with no problem due to the rope being there to steady myself with and not that many steps. Loved it

Stayed Aug 3, 2025Unique property. Lovely spot for a couple. Comfortable for 3rd older child that can mange steep stairs but need to be aware that they would have to access their room via the main double room and also share bathroom. This was not a problem for our family who loved the fisherman's cottage.Can't beat the view. Excellent location - lovely spot on the balcony to watch all the comings/goings of people and boats. Well equipped.

Stayed Jul 31, 2025The property itself has to be in my perspective the best location in Whitby. When you open the door to the house you’re welcomed to a clean property that peels like home. Then when you walk through into the living room you’re greeted by two doors leading you to a fantastic seated balcony where you can sit and watch the world go by. Davina the property owner was very helpful and very polite. 10/10 can’t wait to come back soon!

Stayed Jul 23, 2025Fabulous week in Whitby at the Folly. You couldn’t get a better harbour location in Whitby, we sat on the balcony watching the boats and drinking wine all week! Cottage is very well equipped and clean with galley kitchen and beamed ceilings with nautical decor. Very comfy bed and good shower. Parking in Whitby is the only isssue we had, eventually found a spot, got a parking permit from the tourist information centre just over the bridge (around 60) and left the car there all week. Lots of places to eat out, shops, walks. steam trains, boat trips, ghost tours, Dracula and some great cocktail bars!

Stayed Jul 11, 2025Excellent location though not good for those with mobility struggles. We were already aware of the limited parking in Whitby town centre before booking and we were more than happy walking to and from the Abby car park. Beautiful property, great views, luxury bath very comfy bed. Great communication and instructions from the host. We would certainly stay again.

Stayed Jun 19, 2025The view is everything with this property along with excellent locationBeautiful, quirky accommodation with good shower and comfy bed.Cleanliness overall good but let down by pet hair, a greasy grill pan and a stained table surface. There was also no light working for stairway.Worth pointing out that people with mobility issues will find the stairs to bedrooms and bathroom challenging.

Stayed May 23, 2025Lovely cottage throughout, hidden away from all the hustle and bustle of the main street including all the noise. Great balcony to sit for al fresco meals and drinks. Davina couldnt do any more for us, and even had a plumber come out over the bank holiday weekend to take a look at a query. Overall, 10/10!

Stayed May 16, 2025Great location, very comfy bed and excellent shower. Some concerns over how clean it was and disappointed that there was no welcome pack. Living area could do with less tables, constantly have to walk around furniture to get about.
