Trip Details
The Space
The ground floor of the cottage is made up of an open plan kitchen, living and dining area. Immediately welcomed with freshly painted walls and high spec fixtures and fittings, this cottage is a real treat by the sea.
The L-shaped kitchen is fully equipped with fridge, oven, electric hob, microwave, kettle and coffee machine. The dining table comfortably seats four on the farmhouse style chairs. Sitting alongside the cottage door you can let the sun shine in while you enjoy your weekend brunch.
The living area comprises of a two seater sofa, two fabric armchairs and a picture perfect window seat. Complete with an electric fire, flat screen tv and nature inspired soft furnishings this cottage really has a wonderful cosy feel.
Follow the split level staircase to the first floor where you will find a double bedroom. This room is painted in a bold blue colour and is styled with Whitby themed artwork. The wood frame double bed sits centre to two matching bed side tables and white, wall feature lamps. There is plenty of storage in here too, with a wardrobe and set of matching drawers.
The compact bathroom is also on this level. Comprising of a shower, WC and basin with vanity unit.
Take the stairs to the second floor and you will find the master suite. With plush grey carpets, pale grey walls and a bare brick chimney breast, this room feels stylish and calm. The room features a kingsize bed, two bedside tables with storage and a dressing table. Wake up after a good night’s sleep to the morning sunrise and views of Whitby pier.
To the front of the cottage you will find a selection of seating, perfect for enjoying an afternoon rest after exploring the cobbled streets of Whitby.
Neighborhood
Jet Cottage is located just off the iconic Flowergate, in the centre of Whitby. You will find the flurry of shops, restaurants and bars just a few steps from the cottage front door.
Take a stroll to the Blue Flag West Cliff beach and promenade just 5 minutes away. The famous Trenchers is nearby where you can try traditional Whitby fish and chips! On Pier Road, you’ll find nostalgic arcades which are fun for all ages..
The opposite side of Whitby is full of narrow, medieval streets dotted with boutiques and pubs. Sample the catch of the day in one of the fish restaurants or visit one of the traditional sweet shops for all your candy needs.
Climb the famous 199 steps up to the Church of Saint Mary and the renowned ruined Whitby Abbey, which was the inspiration for Bram Stoker’s gothic novel ‘Dracula’.
Step outside of Whitby and you’ll uncover a haven of woodland and moorland. Whitby forms part of the North York Moors National Park so it’s the perfect place for long walks.
Getting Around
Whitby train station is just a few minute walk from Amber Cotage so villages and towns along the North Yorkshire coast can easily be reached via rail. There’s also a taxi rank in close proximity to the train station.
There are plenty of bus routes throughout Whitby. Hop on the X4 and you can visit beautiful coastal villages like Sandsend, Runswick Bay and Staithes. The X93 travels along the coast to Scarborough. The 95 route features plenty of quaint villages, such as Grosmont and Lealholm.

This was booked for a trip for my grandparents.
They had such a lovely stay, the property is in a central location with all amenities.
A couple of things were not as “polished” as the photos but easily solved with a quick refresh.

Great little cottage in ideal central location... sadly our stay was spoilt having been given the wrong parking scratch card by the host, whilst admitting it was their error they refused to cover the cost of the parking ticket.. Please read the small print on the parking scratch card to make sure it covers your length of stay..

Centrally located in Whitby. Lovely quirky little 3 storey cottage. Tastefully furnished, clean, cosy & comfortable. Wonderful sea view from the top floor bedroom. Very quiet area, which was lovely.
There was no storage in the kitchen area. We only stayed for 3 nights, we ate out each night, so only brought fruit, breakfast items & alcohol. However, if you were staying & not eating out each day, you would struggle to store any food. The fridge had no freezer compartment for ice/frozen food storage. Access to the 2nd floor bedroom was via a very steep narrow staircase. My parents, both in their late 70’s would have struggled with this. In fact, my husband & i (mid 40’s) had to be careful when going to the bathroom during the night, as this was on the first floor. I don’t remember there being any mention of the staircase within the description of the property.

From booking with my usual site ie booking.com this went down hill. I was repeated asked to supply ID which I didn't want to do. However I did get numerous messages about directions and how to access the cottage etc which were clear and concise. Parking was difficult as the town has a lot of one way roads and parking is on roads only marked with W for us. A couple of times round town and we found a spot for two days but quite a walk to the cottage. On finding the cottage we were greeted with a dirty access entry but stepping inside the cottage we thought it was quaint and appeared clean. It was not. Lounge area had a number of cob webs. The seating looked grubby and was not clean as crumbs etc were tucked into creases. Upstairs the bathroom was uncomfortably small with issues of maintenance incuding the toilot roll holder whicn had already fallen off the wall and the corner of floor were black as was parts of the shower cubicle.the stairs to top floor were far too small and steep although this room was ,larger than 1st floor bedroom. The windows couldn't be opened. 1st floor bedroom had major issue with the bed which had seen a lot of repairs and was the worst bed I have slept in. The furniture was mucky mouse and we didn't use them as bedside cabinets were also grubby inside.wardrobe was unstable. Blinds need maintenance. The location of this cottage was lovely so easy to get into town and the harbour and beach but for me it has a lot of maintenance issues which reading some older reviews have been reported previously but not attended to. Shame because it could be a cosy retreat even in winter

The cottage is immaculate, and very comfortable. The central location is great.
The only issue was the difficulty finding a parking space in the designated area. I'm not sure how that could be resolved, but we seemed to spend a lot of time driving around in circles trying to find a space. On our final day, this proved impossible and we had to park at the leisure centre, which was quite a long way away.

The property was lovely, very clean and in a great location to explore Whitby. The owner provided a parking coupon as part of the price for street parking which was very much appreciated, where if available you can park your vehicle in a W zone of disc parking, which are located within 5 minutes walk of the property. We would definitely stay at this property again.
Parking was difficult and we couldn't locate the blue bin for glass and plastics.

This place is ideally located and has over gone a lovely refurbishment since my last stay, comfortable and very well equipped.
Really bad smell about the place, we bought Reed diffusers to try and mask it, worked out towards the end of our stay it was the drains so bleach was probably the answer! Also no mirrors in the bedrooms.

Beautiful cottage, easy access to the town centre.
Only got given one parking permit so that was a bit stressful on the first day trying to find somewhere to leave another vehicle.
Also some building work is taking place near the cottage so wheelbarrows of bricks/mud were being wheeled by the property leaving the entrance very dirty.

The cooking facilities provided were good with a clean, roomy fridge. The beds were comfortable and there was central heating when required.
We were able to contact the owner/ managers at any time and they always responded to our questions promptly.
We would stay at Jet cottage again.

In the town centre
The cottage was tidy inside but that was after you passed by the smelling bins. We did contact the management but nothing was done. The bins may still remain full!!
There was no sanitiser on entry but the rooms were clean and tidy. Top staircase I feel is not safe but I they have informed.
I feel that the cottage is for short stay so did not suit us.

This cottage was cosy and well decorated, absolutely loved the look. Brilliant location within walking distance to everything really.
A couple of things I didn’t like would be on first glance I noticed ALOT of cobwebs and dust gathered along all the ceilings and corners really which was disappointing considering such a lovely space to stay in at 160 per night you would expect it to be checked :( . Also the noise from the neighbours of which in our “rules” we were told to accommodate our curfew was a little loud which can’t be helped by the owner but just a comment. Overall we had a lovely stay though...

The location is very good. Right in the heart of Whitby! it is a cute little worker's cottage down a very tiny alleyway.
it was small, but very clean.
You have to walk quite a way to get the on street parking which comes free with vouchers at the property, so if you've got mobility problems it might be a hassle. Also, the top bedroom has extremely steep stairs, so definitely not ideal for children or those with mobility problems. The top floor windows didn't open either.

The only thing we found was that after we had paid for the stay, we found it cheaper on Air bnb. I am not sure how this is the case other than booking.com inflating the price. I would book through Air bnb next time.

Jet cottage is a really nice place to stay for a couple/2 couples or a few friends. Personally I wouldn’t go back with my family just due to the size of the property. It’s small, unfortunately my experience wasn’t the best when it came to parking with a little family, there are loading bays and an area you can park to take all your luggage in but then expect to park about 5-10 mins from the property and walk back). As far as comfort goes, the top bedroom expect a steep climb up and down the steps.
I expected a nicer bed to sleep in to be honest for the price we paid.
It was extremely clean and close to everything we wanted to do. I think there’s definitely improvements to be made but it was a really nice place as far as how clean and modern it is.

Although hard to initially find as its tucked down a side street and there is only a small gate in between 2 shops to access it, once we got in it was a lovely quaint little cottage that made you feel hundreds of miles away from the hustle and bustle of Whitby. The online pictures are ever so slightly stretched making it appear a bit bigger than it is, but this isn't really a problem.
The property was clean and had everything we needed for our stay including tea and coffee and even a small bottle of milk on arrival.

A wonderful place to stay in Whitby! This gorgeous cottage is tucked away down a little street so although it is right in the centre of town, you get very little noise. The cottage was decorated stylishly, and although it was petite, there is still room for our 6ft guest to stand! The top room offers a glimpse of the sea. The house was well stocked. The hosts were quick to respond to all of our queries and they had put careful thought in how to safely manage the virus. I would highly recommend.

We could not have asked for a nicer place to stay. The place was so clean. I can honestly say that it was probably the nicest place we’ve stayed in a long time. So much attention to detail with everything!
The only thing I would suggest is the stairs in the loft room maybe need another rail or banister on the opposite side for something else to hold on to. It wasn’t a problem for us but could be a bit of a future hazard.
Home Truths
Jet Cottage is located on a narrow walkway just off Whitby's central Flowergate. It can be hard to miss so look out for Oystons Yard.
Due to the nature of the property and it's central location, the cottage is on the cosy side.
Free parking is provided but this will be a few moments from the property.
The master suite on the second floor has sloped ceilings so please mind your head as you navigate around the room.
