It was a lovely few days.. Platform 12 was very cosy and had everything we needed. We would definitely stay again and would highly recommend.

Mrs Locke

A lovely holiday cottage with everything you could need.. Perfectly situated in whitby which is a great place with something for everyone. The cottage is warm and cosy and was nice to come home to after days out exploring wonderful Yorkshire.

Great location for station and shops.. Good parking outside. Very good especially for Steam Weekend. Easy to contact owner if necessary.

Mr Hunt

Great house, comfortable and spacious, everything there to meet our needs, very close but quietly located near the town centre and all of it's attractions and facilities..

Every thing about the cottage was brilliant

Miss Galloway

Platform 12 is a lovely cottage located close enough to the main part of Whitby, but away from all the hustle and bustle.. The owners have made a real (and successful!) effort to make the cottage feel very welcoming with the well thought out pictures, ornaments and cushions etc but at the same time have managed to create an uncluttered fresh feel inside. The bed in the main room was very comfortable. The smaller bedroom is quite tight on space and perhaps would not suit 2 older teenagers or adults - but it is a comfortable, nice looking room. There is car parking (for one car) directly outside the property - which is a useful and important bonus! Having stayed in Whitby many times, this is definitely one of our preferred cottages and will be back!

The accommodation was brilliant with excellent facilities including a very comfortable bed (which is always my big concern).. It was very central. The railway ran alongside the ground floor part of the accommodation but did not cause any disturbance; trains not too frequent and it was great when the steam train would go past and we'd wave!!! A really homely cottage. A real bonus is parking. Everything within comfortable walking distance. The only thing to be aware of is steps if this is a problem.

Diane & Stewart have a lovely cottage, well equipped and perfectly situated for central Whitby, 2 min stroll to town.. The trains are a nice sight and not a bother at all when they do pass. All in all platform 12 is just perfect for a short break, everything you need is provided and it’s right on the doorstep for town. My one tip would be to do your food shopping before you get there as the Co-op is the only major store close and as such you’re a hostage to their prices.

Mrs Burnley

There were 4 adults in our party and the second bedroom was very small - probably ok for children but not so much for adults.. Its not a complaint - just an observation and it might have even mentioned this in the advertisement and I might have missed it. Otherwise the cottage was great.

Mrs Preston

Beautiful little cottage and so close to the town.. We weren’t bothered in the least by the trains, but slightly disappointed we didn’t see a steam train. Nice kitchen area and lovely bathroom. All maintained to a great standard. Great to have a parking spot too. On street parking is busy though. My husband came across after work meaning we had 2 cars. One parking space should be adequate for just about everyone though.
