Holly Cottage is in a lovely, peaceful location but only 15/20 minutes to the hustle of Whitby.. The gardens and outside areas are great, especially for dogs. The downstairs lounge is snug and cosy. The kitchen/diner has everything you need (as long as you go searching in all of the cupboards to hunt down the microwave and freezer!). However, the upstairs double bedroom is cramped and the size of the ensuite rather encroaches into that space. Fine for a weekend but not sure about any longer.
