Egrets Landing Reviews

Sarah
Overall a lovely cottage. The location was ideal for us, away from the busyness of town but close enough that you could still walk in (with toddlers!) with ease. Very well equipped kitchen, everything you could need and lovely sitting room. Only real downside for was the comfort of the beds, unfortunately led to very poor sleep.
Jack
Really happy with the stay we had in Whitby. If we were to return in the future, we would look here first. The location was great and everything was in walking distance. It was a clean and cosy cottage with plenty of space for the 6 of us. We also really appreciated having tea, coffee and milk ready for when we arrived after our long journey.
Christine
We love this cottage, have stayed twice now and have rebooked for next year. Itâ??s a no frills, practical, warm, clean cottage with everything you need and just a short stroll along the estuary to the town and beaches.The beds are comfortable, bedding and towels are good quality and there is a well equipped kitchen. There are throws to put on the sofa if you have a pet, and dog bowls are provided. There are also beach toys for children. The cottage does involve steps so not good if you have any mobility issues and parking is a gamble on the road but it is free parking if you manage to find a space, which is a bonus! Around the corner is a fabulous fruit/veg wholesalers who also sell to the public, it was also brilliant for the day to day bits we needed, milk, bread, eggs etc.
Robert
Lovely. Warm. Well equipped. Clean and tidy. Good Wi-Fi. Watch your head on those low doors though!
Peter
An atmospheric terraced cottage only 10 minutes walk from the centre of Whitby. The bedrooms are not very big, but we were fine for three nights with six adults, a baby and a dog. The parking can be a bit of a challenge, but most of the time we were walking in and around Whitby itself so it wasn't a great problem so once we had found a space were able to leave the car there.
Mark
Very nice and very clean accommodation and spread over 3 levels and in the very location we wanted to be. ideal for people visiting without transport as parking nearby is difficult for people coming by car. Not ideal for some people with mobility issues either due to steps you'll need to traverse each day.
Val
A lovely cottage,very quirky and traditional. It's set on 3 floors 2 bedrooms at the top, a living room bathroom and kitchen in the middle and a further 2 bedrooms and bathroom on lower floor This worked out really well for our family as lower floor was like a separate apartment We will definitely be back ,it was cosy and comfortable and had everything you could need
Lynn
A lovely decorated cute and cosy cottage in a good location. The property is clean and well equipped, with very comfortable beds.
Sharon
Lovely cottage, close to all attractions.
Clive
Nice property located on the quieter side of Whitby.
