Regatta House Reviews

Property in a great position, very clean. Neighbour next door was a nuisance with her parking across property.. heating in bedroom with twin beds upstairs did not work could not sleep in there.
Beautiful House. We had everything we need. Appreciate the well stocked kitchen. Beds comfy, showers great. Nice and quiet but close to everything. Recommend the Pie & Mash shop for a good home cooked meal. Trenchers fish & chips good & they can cook in veg oil as opposed to beef dripping! Torches in rooms a great idea. Thanks!
Louise
House was lovely, great location in relation to town and beach. Just a few things to mention though. Smoke detectors went off 4 times during our stay, 1 early morning, 1 late night, other 2 during the day. 2nd but last day there was a leak in the top double bedroom, dripped onto the bed soaking the bedding, fortunately there was only 6 of us staying so the occupants moved to the twin bedroom, however one of the twin beds had broken slats and were replaced by bits of timber that kept on moving so a bit of moving around had to be done to secure them. Both smoke detector and leak issues were reported and were dealt with straight away. Knives could do with being sharpened or replaced in the kitchen and a few more chopping boards unless we werent looking in the right place. Could do with a few more cleaning cloths and scourers in the kitchen too. Apart from the above mentioned the house was lovely, tastefully decorated and an ideal location.
Geoffrey
The property lived up to our expectations in every way. It was clean and very comfortable. A big thank you to Sykes for the efficiency of your call out guys we had a co2 warning and someone attended very quickly and quickly resolved what was a battery problem. Having stayed in this area before we knew in advance how convenient this property was for access to the beach and Whitby itself. Very little has been mentioned in previous reviews about parking. Access is very tight and although a parking spot was available, be prepared for some parking dexterity and a degree of reversing. A few things about the property, which in no way affected our stay, but need to be flagged up, i hand wash bottles there but empty, ii bin in bedroom toilet not emptied and iii thank you for the little gifts, but the cake was 1 month after its use by date.
Lorraine
We were a group of 7 adults and Regatta House accommodated us with all are needs. Extremely comfortable beds. Would love to know the make of the mattress, slept that well. Bathrooms worked well, having one each. We used the front outside space for the sunshine. Well equipped kitchen. Every where was lovely and clean. Parking was fun and games, but we always got parked not too far away. Would love to book again. Thankyou
Sophie
We stayed at Regatta House in Whitby as a family aged 3 to 62, and it really was a home from home. The beds were so comfy and each room was beautifully decorated with tasteful dcor throughout. The house was very well equipped, with a Nespresso machine, great hairdryers, and Bothams goodies on arrival. We spent most evenings in the lovely living room playing the games provided, so didnt even need to put the TV on, though it was great to have a smart TV available. The location was ideal, just a nice short walk into town for exploring Whitby. A fantastic holiday home that wed happily recommend were already planning our return!
What a wonderful house, perfection in every way! A very happy holiday with grown up children and their partners would highly recommend The Elsinore brilliantly run pub, with great music Live at the weekends great fun, The Esk Vaults for food Drink and card games great atmosphere. Arch & Abbey micropub lovely venue for drinks. Lucky to have the fab bakery at the end of the street plus cranberry swamp for a delicious breakfast. Whitby you have been AMAZING!!
A beautiful, spotlessly clean property with everything you might need to make your stay an enjoyable one.

Mark's Birthday week and what a fab week it was! An absolutely gorgeous house with everything you need and more a true home from home. Would recommend Pizza West, Humble Pie and of course The Magpie! Much fun was had on Arnold Palmers crazy golf course. Lovely walks on the beach, the cinder track to Robin Hoods Bay and of course Whitby. Thank you again for again for a wonderful stay
A Fantastic week celebrating and building new memories in this lovely house! We had a brilliant week in Whitby and as ever, can't wait to return! This holds special memories for us, its fantastic to seen that it has been lovingly and beautifully decorated and given the TLC it deserves. Thank you for a great stay, we are sorry to be leaving

Love Regatta House, Comfortable with everything you need. Location, location , location you are minutes away from the Whale bone, and that view of the Harbour. The other direction a shirt walk to the Swing bridge. The best Bakery is literally at the end of the street. Great house for a family reunion, friends get away, just a family. I imagine it is magical at Christmas time.
Excellent house , great location . Lovely walk into whitby centre with great views of the abbey . Has everything you need , plenty of crockery , glasses , etc . Comfy beds , and decor is great with some quirky decorative additions . Welcome cake and tea bags a bonus , with gravy bones for the dogs . Might be useful to know when the bin men are due as we missed them and had some rubbish which we could have thrown away . Overall an excellent holiday , would love to visit again .
Second visit to this lovely property. 4 couples had a great time. Many thanks
We had a lovely stay at Regatta House, large conveniently located property with the added bonus of all rooms en suite.
Graeme
A wonderful stay in the heart of the old town. The house was super with everything that you could possibly need. By far the best we have stayed in to date.
Lovely house, everything you could need for a more than comfortable stay. Bedrooms luxurious and beds comfy everyone slept soundly. Great location would definitely book again.
Joanna
Regatta House is a beautiful and comfortable house to stay in. It was very clean and fresh and had amazing decor. It is centrally located so we didn't have to use the car at all for the week. We managed to park outside the house which was handy. We have had a wonderful stay in Whitby, going fishing, crabbing, visiting the Abbey, taking the steam railway, long walks from the doorstep to Robin Hoods Bay and back using the Cleveland Way and the Cinder Path on return. The restaurants and shops are lovely, and the bakery at the bottom of the road is excellent. The only thing we missed was a radio in the kitchen. Thanks for a great holiday.
WOW! What a beautiful house! The decor is incredible and the beds and sofas are super comfy and cosy. Everything about this house is perfect, and there are no faults. The sofas are an amazing colour. This is by far the best cottage I've been to. The seaside is lots of fun and all the charity shops sell amazing things. Whitby is the most welcoming, lovely place ever! Thank you for a very enjoyable stay. P.S. Your attention to detail has gone expectations. Thank you. P.P.S We recommend El Taco and Cosa Nostra as they both have delicious food.

Angela
Fabulous property to enjoy with our family celebrating my husband's 60th. The attention to detail that has obviously gone into making this house a holiday let is exceptional. Thank you so much for allowing us the pleasure of staying at Regatta House. We would love to return someday maybe for my 60th.
We have had a wonderful stay at Regatta House, everything is very comfortable and well presented. Very nice and thank you for a lovely stay
Regatta House is a stunning property decorated and furnished to a really high standard. There was plenty of room for everyone. Having 4 bathrooms was a real bonus in the mornings. Its location is great, so close to all Whitby has to offer. Communication with the owner about parking was excellent and very helpful. We managed to get 2 spaces outside the door and at the leisure centre only 5 min walk away. Would definitely recommend staying here.
What a fabulous house, ideally placed and well equipped. Would definitely recommend.
Lorraine
Absolutely lovely, couldn't fault it! As a family of a large age range from 1 to 70 the house was wonderful and we can't wait to return.
Regatta House What a find! Lovely location and beautiful presentation and attention to detail. A great location for my husbands 50th celebrations. Thanks to all the gang for making it so special, and the delights of Whitby.
Excellent location and fab family house. We have had a wonderful feb half term
We have had the loveliest stay at Regatta House! From the comfy beds, to the very organised and well stocked kitchen, to the gorgeous decor and attention to detail. Everything has been just perfect. Thank you for the most relaxing few days! we can't wait to come back! see you soon!

Lovely, warm and welcoming and spotless. Thank you, will come back and definitely recommend. Loved what we saw of Whitby too , though didn't explore enough Good reason to come back to this beautiful house.
Excellent property everything you could wish for very very comfortable we had an excellent time home from home
Fantastic stay at Regatta House. Very luxurious and has everything anyone could need. Beds are super comfy, beautiful decor throughout. Perfect location, easy to walk to town and restaurants. Thanks very much for a fabulous long weekend. Will definitely be back!!!
Regatta House is a beautiful property with exceptional quality furnishings and well decorated. A lovely welcome gift was well received. It is in a brilliant location on the west cliff within close walking distance to everything in Whitby. The lounge has plenty of sofas and a large screen TV. The dining room has a large table which seats 8, a log burner and espresso coffee machine. The kitchen is a long galley style, which can be a little tight on space if there are a couple of people in, but offers everything you need for your stay and more. The crockery, pans, utensils etc are a very good quality and plenty. There's a small toilet at the end of the kitchen behind a sliding door. It is questionable about hygiene of it's location but is very handy. The small courtyard has seating and a large table if the weather is nice and is secure so ideal for our dog. The four bedrooms are very spacious, have very comfortable beds and each have a bathroom which is excellent. Although two of the bedrooms do not have ensuite as such but the bathroom is located very close. The second floor bathrooms are very large. All furnishings are of very good quality. A couple of small points are the first floor bathroom is lacking a mirror and the parking is not ideal if needing to park outside the property. Parking is very tight to the front of the house but there's plenty around the area and permits are provided. Overall this property is exceptional. We absolutely loved our stay and would definitely return to Regatta House.
Beautiful house. The sinks in some of the bathrooms were a bit inadequate and really only suitable for hand washing. Also it would be helpful to have a small mirror in the bathroom next to the first bedroom on the first floor.
What a great house with every item. Top Quality! The beds and the pillows were fab!! We were here to celebrate a 70th birthday and couldn't have chosen a better place than Regatta House to explore the delightful Whitby. We will definitely be back!
Regatta House is simply an oasis of calm and comfort in the bustling town of Whitby. It is close enough to everything, from lovely brunch and coffee stops, to the impressive Abbey and the beach making the car largely redundant. The level of comfort and standard of decor within the house is second to none. Everything has been thought of, from the well stocked and practical kitchen to the luxurious bedrooms and lovely bathrooms. I wish we could have stayed longer!
The parking was a complete nightmare and the correct parking permits were not there to display which caused a lot of stress in the night of arrival. We had to unload our vehicle and park somewhere else away in the first night. Was not a nice start. Then a rep came a a day or so later and gave us the permits that should have been for us in the property.
Elizabeth
A fabulous house with all the amenities you could wish for very clean and comfortable. The only downside was we had to park one of our vehicles at the leisure centre.
