Public car park. No smoking.. This contemporary semi-detached cottage is perfectly located a stone’s throw from the centre of Whitby, in a quaint and quiet yard, making it surprisingly peaceful. It boasts fantastic views of the abbey and has been restored in a beautiful nautical theme. Much of the bespoke wooden furniture and beds have been hand crafted to a very good standard making this cottage unique. The second floor bedroom is beautifully decorated and has wonderful wooden beams. Although parking is not available at the property, there are many pay and display car parks throughout the town. The cottage is just a short walk to Skinner Street with its many local cafés, bakers and bars. A 5-minute stroll brings you to the water’s edge and cobbled backstreets with independent shops, offering everything from precious gems to ice cream.
Whitby has become a busy year round resort, and there are festivals and events taking place throughout the year, including the famous bi-annual Goth weekenders, a regatta and music festivals. It also boasts 3 miles of unspoilt golden beaches for you to enjoy. The Yorkshire Heritage Coast offers many coves and bays to visit, with some fantastic views of cliffs and beaches, cliff side walks, and stories of Captain Cook and smuggling. Take the cinder track walk from just outside Whitby through to Robin Hood’s Bay, or join up with the Cleveland Way for a longer walk. Head inland to enjoy the North York Moors National Park with its quaint villages such as Grosmont and Goathland, catch a steam train for the best views as it snakes inland from Whitby, or explore waterfalls and viewpoints across the park. The Victorian seaside resort of Scarborough is a short drive away, and as well as golden sands it has regular concerts at the open air theatre. Further afield, you’re just an hour’s drive from the walled city of York and its many attractions. The war museum of Eden Camp at Malton, the market town of Pickering and theme parks such as Flamingoland and Lightwater Valley are also nearby. Or enjoy a visit to one of the many abbeys and stately homes in the National Park or venture over to the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Beach 350 yards. Shop, pub and restaurant 25 yards.

A great little cosy cottage, decorated lovely. In a great location, a down side is a lack of parking but we knew that beforehand and found great free parking not too far away, as it is out of season. A great base for visiting the area..

A beautiful cottage, ideally situated, very quiet location but close to all the amenities.
A beautiful cottage, ideally situated, very quiet location but close to all the amenities. It is very welcoming and comfortable. The heating system keeps it lovely and cosy throughout. The triple aspect view in the living/dining/kitchen area is a nice bonus, giving clear views of the Abbey. Offloading of our bags for our holiday wasn't a problem. Just plan it before you get there. Cannot fault any aspect of our stay. Highly recommended, we will definitely return.

We've been coming to Whitby for over 26yrs staying in various cottages, and I have to say Rose and Crown cottage is up there with the best. Lovely property in a central location close to everything. Welcome pack is a nice touch from the owners. Clean throughout, comfortable beds and beautiful views all round. Will definitely return next year.

A lovely little cottage that's nicely decorated.
A lovely little cottage that's nicely decorated. We had a very enjoyable stay in this perfect central location. There's a view of the Abbey from the kitchen and bathroom windows and the shops, pubs and restaurants in the immediate surrounding area are great. The only downside is no parking. However we stayed in peak season and managed go find various local spots to park in without too much problem.

First time stay in Whitby & choice of cottage could not have been better . Very clean cosy & relaxing decor centre of Whitby. Basket made up was a added extra welcome & much appreciated. Owners contacted prior to holiday date & arrival giving a personal touch to holiday & feeling of assurance that you could contact at any time throughout stay if need be. Would certainly use rose & crown yard for next Whitby stay .

A fabulous cottage which provides comfort and conveniently situated for local shops and amenities. The only drawback is parking which is around 5-10 mins walk away from the property but a minor detail
