Nice place, convenient spot, everything worked fine, no complaints.

We had a lovely stay at this cozy cottage. The kitchen may be a bit compact, but it’s really well stocked with everything we needed. The furnishings are a little worn, but super clean and tidy, which is what matters most. The bathroom looks fairly new, with a nice shower over the bath. The downstairs loo is small, so might not suit everyone, especially those with mobility issues. Heating and cold water were straightforward to operate and the induction hob came with clear instructions. All in all, a great little place!

Overall, we had a decent stay. The cottage was comfy and the beds were really nice, though a bit noisy sometimes. The main issue was the seating downstairs - only enough for four people, even though five of us stayed. Also, there weren’t enough sockets in the rooms, with just one per bedroom and nowhere near the seating areas. Still, it wasn’t too bad!

We recently stayed in Cottage 37 and overall, it was a pretty decent experience. The place was spotlessly clean and obviously well cared for, which we appreciated. The only minor issue on the cleanliness side was the shower curtain in the upstairs bathroom - it could definitely do with being replaced and the sealant around the bath is starting to look a bit mouldy, so that might need some attention soon. It made us smile to see all the sheets marked with the cottage number in permanent marker - quirky little detail! The fitted sheet in the master bedroom was a bit small for the mattress, constantly pinging off the corners, so maybe a bigger one would help. We also found the hanging space a little limited; a few extra coat hangers would have been useful, especially since there was still plenty of room in the wardrobe. An ironing board would be a handy addition too, especially for longer stays. Inside the kitchen, there's a folder with instructions for the appliances. Some of them, particularly the induction hob, could do with clearer guidance - once you get the hang of them, they’re quite straightforward. Also, it’d be helpful to know when the hot water booster kicks in in the mornings. Initially, the WiFi was a nightmare - wouldn’t load anything - but after restarting the router, it surprisingly worked much better than expected, letting us browse social media and surf the web without issue. All in all, a nice place with just a few tweaks that could make it even better!

Very charming stay

Really enjoyed our stay here. The cottage’s layout and views were lovely and it’s well equipped and cosy. Only downside was the parking bays - wish they were a bit larger!

We stayed at this cosy little cottage in a quiet holiday village and loved the stunning views. It’s perfect for a relaxing break, though do remember to stock up beforehand since there’s no shop on-site. The hilly terrain might be tricky for some, but overall, a lovely spot!

We’ve been here before and honestly, it's the only place we’d come back to.

Really enjoyed our stay! The cottage was cosy and well-equipped, perfect for a relaxed getaway. Loads nearby!

Great spot, really comfy and the price was spot on too!

We had a great few days overall. The staff were really friendly and helpful and the relaxed vibe made everything so enjoyable. Nice experience!

Comfortable and convenient

Great stay, loved the pubs and food in Whitby. Will return!

Looking forward to our next stay, already planning the next trip!

Really enjoyed our day out, lovely spot to unwind.

Spacious enough for us, really comfy.

We had a lovely, chilled weekend by the river with the dogs. Whitby’s cafes and bars are great!

We had a really nice stay at this cosy cottage. It’s situated in a lovely spot, perfect for exploring. The place was spotless and had all the essentials. The only thing we found a bit odd was there's no reception, just a maintenance guy around during the day, so check-in felt a little awkward. Still, we’d definitely come back. The location’s close enough to town, though walking isn’t easy because of the busy roads and no footpaths. Plenty of parking, which is a bonus!

Great stay, definitely coming back again soon!

Great spot, will return

Beautiful, stylish, well thought out

We visited this site for the first time and honestly, it won’t be our last. The cottage was charming and made the gloomy weather less of a bother at least!

Really charming little place

Really enjoyed our stay, can't wait to come back again!

Absolutely loved this spot, can’t recommend it enough. Truly a good place!

We really enjoyed our stay at the cabin. It’s small but cleverly designed, perfect for a quick weekend getaway. The bed was super comfy and it stayed warm even in December, plus the views were lovely. The shower’s okay for quick rinses, but not ideal for long hair washing. We did find it odd that basics like tea, coffee, sugar and washing up liquid weren’t included, despite the description saying to bring your own towels. Still, we’d definitely come back!

Great location, easy to find, loved the vibe.

Lovely stay, the cottage was perfect for our short break.

Really enjoyed our visit, definitely coming back soon!

We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage! The facilities were spot on and the staff couldn’t be friendlier. It was our third visit, but first time in the Ayton cottage No.32, which felt just like home. Perfect spot - we strolled over the viaduct to Whitby in about 20 minutes. Definitely coming back!

First visit, and a great time had! We are a family with an 18month old, and the site, facilities and location was first class!

Beautiful location for a holiday beside the river Esk. Accommodation was lovely 2 bedroom cottage with nice outside area with a bench and bushes either side to give a bit of privacy. Easy walk into Whitby for plenty to see and wander round. Lots of local villages and the Yorkshire Moors in easy reach too. Only minor point. As stated in the information WiFi is very poor. Had we thought about it we would have taken a device with plenty of data so we could use Netflix, Spotify or Internet on the one wet evening. TV and radio reception wasn't great either when the weather was bad.

Lovely cottage in a beautiful location with the added bonus of the steam train passing by.

We really loved our holiday at Captain Cooks Haven and would very much like to return sometime It was spotlessly clean and well equipped

A lovely gem of a place. Peaceful and very well kept. Easy access to Whitby couple of minutes drive by car. Accommodation was lovely and had everything we needed. The pool was great. A really relaxed and easy going holiday.

Lovely relaxing time, cottage was really clean and well equipped, only downside was the shower which due to the sloping ceiling, means it's very low down.

We had a fabulous holiday

Excellent park in a great location with fantastic views. Nice pool, helpful staff. The kitchen fixtures and fittings are a little dated but everything worked and it was a fantastic holiday. Great value for money. Would definitely book again!

Great place and value Lots of walks and things to do

A fantastic week holiday, in cottage 32. the cottage was in a very good position, very well appointed with the owners individual décor and collectables, that made it perfect for us, we daily walked into Whitby along the Cindor trail ,where we had most meals, so did not use the cooker etc in the cottage, As it was a hot week, we found the bedrooms being down stairs was a great help to keep cool, the massive shower worked great. The site, was very well cared for, everything was well kept, and no rubbish/litter anywhere. the site manager, and his staff, were always very helpful, and friendly. Worst thing for us was coming home.

Lovely place in a fab location. We would definitely return.

A really tranquil setting beautiful scenery and lots of wildlife ....squirrels mallards cormorants herons....some other resident said they'd spotted seals but unfortunately we didn't. Lovely walks into Whitby and along the riverbank

We stayed for a 4 night break, lovely cottage that was well equipped, and close to the town of Whitby. It would have been nice to be able to walk into town, whilst this was within easy reach ( Just over 1 mile ) for some it was a bit too far for us.
