Yorkshire Coast Self Catering cottage, Locky Cottage, Whitby, sleeps 6

Very nice cottage
Stayed at the locky cottage week beginning 14th of September to 18th. Cottage was everything we expected, close to shops etc. All rooms were very clean. Back yard could do with a good power wash and a lick of paint but apart from that if ever in the area again we would stay again.

Good location & dog-friendly
The house was lovely in many ways: exceptionally clean, lovely reclining sofas in the living room, comfy beds, nice big dining table, etc. Great location a couple of streets from the Harbour. The steps leading to the front door are steep, but you don't go to Whitby if you can't climb steep things! You can see the Abbey ruins from the top floor double bedroom, which is lovely. But - there was a lack of lights, which will cause problems as the nights draw in. There were no bulbs in the vestibule and hallway fittings and none of the bedside lights worked. We were going to buy some bulbs at the local Co-op but they were £5 each, so we didn't! The shower was roomy and there was plenty of hot water, but it would be useful to have a shelf in the shower for soap/shampoo bottles/etc. Take your own soaps & handwash. The TV might need a retune - there weren't many channels available. The Sky box needs a card. We probably should have taken some DVDs. The yard (not patio!) is a bit grim, but we didn't use it (though the dog did). The parking is a bit of a nightmare - we never managed to get parked on the street - but we did block it to unload & load our things! There's a road at the bottom of the hill which always seemed to have spaces.

Awful
Truly awful, save your money and do not book. The place is filthy. Whitby is a lovely place and the location is good but that's about all.
