The dining area sits neatly in the large window, enjoy a home cooked brunch while the morning light floods in.

Heading upstairs you will find the first bedroom and a family bathroom. With beams running overhead you get that real sense of cottage living.

The master bedroom is furnished to the highest standard with a large comfy bed, plush carpets and wooden furniture and clothes rail.

The bathroom, located on the first floor, is a bright and crisp space. With high gloss white tiles and a traditional white bathroom suite. In here you will find the a large walk in shower, WC and basin.

Take the stairs to the second floor and you will find the second bedroom, which is made up of two singles. From here you can follow the rooftops and enjoy the spectacular view of the famous Whitby Abbey. Each bedroom comes equipped with a small television, so if you enjoy a cup of tea and morning watch Amber Cottage is for you.

With crisp white linen and an ‘ocean’ theme running through the soft furnishings, this cottage is the perfect place to escape busy life. Soak up the fresh sea air and enjoy some seaside living.

To the front of the cottage you will find a selection of seating, perfect for enjoying an afternoon rest while listening to the world go by.

The area

Amber Cottage is located just off the iconic Flowergate, in the centre of Whitby. You will find the flurry of shops, restaurants and bars just a few steps from the front door.

The Blue Flag West Cliff beach and promenade is just a 5-minute walk from the cottage. The famous Trenchers is nearby where you can try traditional Whitby fish and chips! On Pier Road, you’ll find nostalgic arcades which are fun for all ages..

The opposite side of Whitby is full of narrow, medieval streets dotted with boutiques and pubs. Sample the catch of the day in one of the fish restaurants or visit one of the traditional sweet shops for all your candy needs.

Climb the famous 199 steps up to the Church of Saint Mary and the renowned ruined Whitby Abbey, which was the inspiration for Bram Stoker’s gothic novel ‘Dracula’.

Step outside of Whitby and you’ll uncover a haven of woodland and moorland. Whitby forms part of the North York Moors National Park so it’s the perfect place for long walks and fresh countryside air.

Whitby train station is just a few minute walk from Amber Cotage so villages and towns along the North Yorkshire coast can easily be reached via rail. There’s also a taxi rank in close proximity to the train station.

There are plenty of bus routes throughout Whitby. Hop on the X4 and you can visit beautiful coastal villages like Sandsend, Runswick Bay and Staithes. The X93 travels along the coast to Scarborough. The 95 route features plenty of quaint villages, such as Grosmont and Lealholm.
