Abbey View Reviews

Overall very good. Positives Great location close to the centre etc Off road parking Lots of storage Good central heating Lots of light, fresh and modern feel Comfortable sofa and beds TV's Washing machine Lighting A few niggles Carpets downstairs has some stains No oven gloves supplied had to use towels Hot tub cover very difficult to put back on
Hilary
My family had a great week staying in this cottage, which was local to a childrens playground and within walking distance of the harbour and shops. The beds were very comfortable as was the lounge. The kitchen had plenty of surface area and had a good range of pans and baking trays. It was a shame that something as simple as a toaster could not be replaced fairly quickly as we used this every day. The base of the oven was dirty with something spilled and baked on over some time. I did attempt to clean this but my soft scourer was only able to remove the edges of the marks. We only used the oven to heat pizza and it worked well, as did the microwave. The parking says it takes 3 cars and there are 2 entrances to the drive with a high wall between the 2. The picture is a bit misleading as one entrance is extremely narrow and there is a large shrub that comes across the entrance and cannot be avoided if parking there. The other entrance is a good metre wider and easier to reverse into but only a small car could get round the corner to park in the middle bit of the driveway. We had 2 long cars and the picture makes it look as if the whole driveway is open to the road and is deeper from the road to the front of the house, that is the only reason I mention it. We managed the drive with the 2 cars reversed straight back although we only used 1 car in the wider gateway once there due to the narrow width and Buddleia bush in the way of the other. The hot tub was good and there was a picnic table and a small table with 2 chairs to sit at in the back garden.
Catherine
Lovely stay at Abbey View, very comfortable, lots of space and loved the hot tub! Great location in a quiet road but walkable distance to the town. Slightly disappointed there was no welcome basket and no extras e.g. hand wash, as we usually have these in other holiday homes and we had to go and buy our own towels as only one supplied per guest and these were small. These are only suggestions though to improve the house even more as we would thoroughly recommend a stay here.
Teresa
Lovely accommodation with excellent facilities for a home from home holiday. Comfortable beds tv in every room and 2 shower rooms. Hot tub an excellent bonus.
Had a lovely stay at Abbey View, the property was clean and comfortable in a quiet location and the hot tub was an added bonus. Location was great only a 5 minute walk down to the harbour with an abundance of shops, restaurants and bars. My only recommendation would be to have black out blinds in upstairs front bedroom as the light came into the room from 4.30 am. Other than that it was perfect for us. We would return and definitely recommend to family and friends.
Rosamund
As with other comments, found it odd to not have more local info in a file, or a guest book. 2 toilet rolls between 6 was also limited, no replacement bin bags provided. Other than that, house was perfect for what we wanted. Comfortable beds, generous size wise.
Perfect weekend break could have stayed longer Spacious well planned and ... Perfect weekend break could have stayed longer Spacious well planned and equipped holiday home ideal for grandparents parents and 2 children Never had a many tvs 5 in a holiday home before and channel selection to suit everyone Plenty of room if needed own space If bad weather it would work perfectly plenty of floor space to play garden small but then you do not go to a lovely seaside resort with lots to do to stay in The walk to to harbour is 5 minutes downhill walk steep back up great exercise sets you up for the hot tub A previous review complaint regarding dogs next door really not a problem and Im not a dog lover at all Very quiet neighbourhood even the seagulls quieter because you are further back Recycle bin would be a good idea
Kayleigh
The property is finished to a very high standard and feels very luxurious and immaculately clean. I would say its more suited to older children and adults as the tables are glass and thick comfortable carpets in the dining area that could easily get stained. There werent any plastic items other than cups like plate or cutlery that young children could use. As of yet there arent any games, books or homely items like teacoffee so make sure you pack what you need. There also isnt any leaflets of local attractions or guest book that we usually use for extra ideas. The view of the Abbey is very clear and pictures dont do it justice. The hot tub is in a wooden building so can be enjoyed when its raining or snowing in our case. The house was lovely and warm, beds very comfortable and kitchen was well stocked with cooking items. We didnt see an option for recycling which would be nice. The luxury house, short distance to the town and a walk away from a lovely park made the trip . Thank you
Louise
Had a lovely break, house really nice and clean great stay.
Had a wonderful time during our stay at Abbey View. The house was great. It was clean and had everything we needed. The hot tub was also a plus! It was so nice to go out exploring Whitby then come back and relax in the hot tub despite the cold weather. Would 100 recommend!
Alison
Lovely house with everything we needed. Spotlessly clean. The driveway may be a bit tight for 3 cars but we only had one, so not an issue. We had a problem with one of the French doors coming off it's hinge, which we reported on Wednesday. We managed to get it back on & locked. Nobody had been to look at it when we left on Friday but may be that they were going to check it that day.
Sandra
It is a lovely, modern, spacious home with a large kitchen diner. It is ideally situated with only a short walk into town, and it has car parking space for more than one vehicle which is a bonus in Whitby. We enjoyed it so much that we have already booked for next year.
We found Abbey view to be spotlessly clean, and my wife is an expert on dust detection. It has high quality, and very comfortable furnishings, with bed linen and towels also spotless. Whitby was a great place, and a handy location for us, as we live in the south east, and my wife has family in the north east, therefor we were able to use the holiday let as a staging post for visiting. The facilities at Abbey view are very good, the hot tub had some use, and the TV channels were the best we have ever found in a holiday let. We have had many holiday cottages, and we find that Abbey view amongst the best. I have read other reviews on this cottage, and wonder if we were at a different location to these, we could nit pick, and search some faults if we tried, but we were on holiday, and didn't want to waste time. We had no rashes from the hot tub, found no hairs in it, in fact it was crystal clear. As we are NOT dog lovers, we were happy with the no pet policy at Abbey view, but not too happy to find a Doberman breeding kennel next door. Although the owners seemed responsible people, we were still aware when the dogs were in the back yard. This is probably the only reason to prevent use coming back to Abbey view.
Melissa
Unfortunately, Abbey View did not meet our expectations as the level of cleanliness was poor. The bedside drawers in the main upstairs bedroom were dirty so we didnt use them during our stay. The washing machine seal was filthy. We had to wash dinner plates before use as some had food on still from previous guests. The hob was very dusty and definitely did not look like it had been cleaned ready for new guests. The toilet seat was loose. We didnt want to have cleaners visit during our stay so we managed without these issues being rectified although we did make Sykes aware of the issues during our stay. Hopefully, these issues will be rectified before future guests stay although Im not convinced as the owners response to our concerns was that the property was spotless and they had cleaned it themselves. However, on the 3rd and final day of our stay we decided to check the hottub in preparation for use on that night, as it was my birthday and we were looking forward to using the hottub. Unfortunately the path leading to the hottub was very dirty. Once the hottub cover was removed we found debris and hairs in the water. The inside edges were dirty also. The hottub certainly did not look clean and infact looked rather unhygienic. We contacted Sykes 10am and received a response approx 2PM yet there was no offer to rectify the hottub problems so we could have one night of use. Instead we were asked to send photos which we did to the best of our ability. The photographs were sent to the owner the following day, around 24 hours later by which time we had left the property! The owner did not even have the decency to offer an apology or acknowledge that the standards were below acceptable instead making out that we were in the wrong. The owner seemed to assume that we wanted compensation although we had not made such a request at any point! Its not about the money, its about the lack of apologyownership and a birthday break ruined. We couldve booked an alternative property without a hottub instead of wasting extra money on Abbey View which advertised a hottub but certainly did not look like it had been emptied and cleaned in preparation for our stay as is a minimum standard.
Andrew
Abbey View is a lovely spacious and contemporary holiday home that was well suited to our family group of 4 adults and 2 children. The property was very clean and well presented and the open plan kitchen dining area was well equipped and furnished. We enjoyed using the sunny patio and hot tub each evening. The centre of Whitby is within 15 minutes walking distance and the surrounding North Yorkshire coast is easily reached. We used local fish and chip restaurants and also ate at Pizza West and Cosa Nostra, all of which are recommended.
Lovely house, very comfy beds, great hot tub, convenient location, but a few small areas stopped this from being a perfect stay. Agree with other reviews regarding the notices about the hot tub which overpower the beautiful dining area, similarly the number of notices about the cutlery drawer location. There is no blue recycling bin, no bin bags were left at all and I have never stayed anywhere else and been provided with an already used kitchen sponge. Again as in previous reviews why not cut the bush back which makes the second entrance to the driveway redundant, it's a 2 minute job!
Louise
House was absolutely filthy,tired and scruffy. Totally not as represented on the website. Nothing in the house like basic cleaning items,had to go shopping to kit it out.Dirty bucket and mop left in bathroom,mirror broken off wall in bedroom, all cupboards filthy inside, Cobwebs everywhere, stained bedding,carpets filthy, the list goes on.We have taken extensive photographs as evidence and made a complaint.
Matthew
The house was ideal for 3 adults and 2 infants. Nice outdoor space, secluded but with afternoon sun. Hot tub was great, and one of the main reasons for booking decommissioning this would be a mistake. Good location, close to town and the park. Only negatives were the drive just knock the wall down, or at least cut down that huge bush, and the fridge door that opened on to the kitchen door and locked with the freezer door, trapping fingers.
Robert
Parking was not easy and didn't represent the views of the property on the web site. Only one narrow entramceexit was able to be used as a shrub was growing over one which would have scratched any car going in or out. Consequently multiple 3 point manoevers were needed to get a second car back out. The original posting claimed parking for 3 cars!!!! Apart from that, the property was well situated in a quiet area with good internal facilities provided.
Kirstie
Place needs a dam good clean! ! Nextdoor to a property that breeds Doberman dogs! Hot Tub is terreible!! We got Pseudomonas aeruginosa hot tub rash From it because it hadn't been cleaned properly. Complained to The Owner and Sykes. Repy was take us to a small claims court as hot tubs are not covered in there terms & conditions. Will not be booking with Sykes ever again!!!
Victoria
Overall, the accommodation is very good the house is very spacious and well located for the town centre. We liked the mood lighting and the layout of the kitchen and all the appliances worked. The beds and furniture were comfortable and we liked all the TVs! However, this was spoilt a bit by a few issues. Most importantly, we had problems with the hot tub the water went green by the third day despite us following the 'rules'. This was still the case after someone visited to put more chlorine tablets in it we have a hot tub at home so we know how to look after one and what to avoid e.g. fake tan. As the tub was one of the main reasons for choosing the property, this was very disappointing, especially as this problem had also been raised in reviews by previous occupants and not been sorted. We were also surprised that there was no 'welcome pack' on arrival and a distinct lack of hand wash and other toiletries in any of the bathrooms. The bath towels provided were small. Although these are minor things, they combined to give the feel that costs were being cut where possible.
Monika
Great property, nice and modern, only 10 mins walk into town, 3 car park spaces on the driveway, great hot tub and nice and private garden. Only downside was the British weather but it was February. Will definitely book again 100
Lovely spacious property in a great location just 10 mins walk from Whitby centre. The house was very well equipped with everything we needed lots of crockery, cutlery, utensils, glassware. We loved the hot tub and kitchen underlighting and mood lighting. The tea coffee squash & biscuits were a nice touch. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.
Lindsey
Lovely well maintained property. Ticked all our boxes. Thank you.
The property we recently rented was greet for our week's stay in Whitby and it's location was absolutely spot on. The fittings, furniture & provided facilities were very much up to our expectations and we hand an enjoyable relaxing stay. There were, however, several issues & niggles that are well worth mentioning & need attention from the owners. It came as something of a surprise & not really welcome to find that the living room still contained the fully decked Christmas Tree & several wall hung decorations! Bearing in mind that our arrival was on the 14th January, it seems that someone couldn't be bothered to remove them nearly 2wks after the 12th night. One toilet roll provided for the four guests. At least one in each toilet. Two torches provided contained dead batteries Both remote controls for the living room TV contained either dead or no batteries Kitchen clock had dead batteries Ground floor bed had dirty bedding on Ground floor bedroom door could not be secured due to a broken catch Ceiling light bulb in kitchen dead. No replacements can opener was useless Most importantly, the hot tub did not get serviced during our stay. This resulted in discoloured and smelling water. We contacted the local agent who informed us that the owners did not pay for a service during a weeks stay! In all our years of renting properties with hot tub, this is the first time we have encountered this approach and find it totally unacceptable. We ended up buying our own sterilising and cleaning equipment. Very poor service As mentioned by other guests, there is a dire need for a dryer in the utility room.
We enjoyed our stay the view from the bedroom window to the Abbey is beautiful, ... We enjoyed our stay the view from the bedroom window to the Abbey is beautiful, the heating took some getting used to and we couldnt find any cutlery apart from that we enjoyed our stay and would recommend staying there
Abbey view was spacious and had everything you could need. Ive never been anywhere with so many cups, plates etc. It was nice that the hot tub was covered over but its not cleanedserviced everyday like most other places weve stayed. We had a lovely week and the location into Whitby is great, theres a steep hill on the way back so no good for those with mobility issues.
Sharon
Your neighbour across road his very obnoxious regarding where he parks his ... Your neighbour across road his very obnoxious regarding where he parks his car The things we missed was a tumble dryer as the radiators are on a timer of which we have no control of more cups and pans as 6 cups not enough No information when dustbins need to be emptied so some guests are loving it so they over flow Overall lovely place been two yrs running but unfortunately the cost as gone up 600 for the same week in 2022 think that is being greedy due to pandemic so wont be booking again
Thus is an excellent cottage and base for your holiday I would highly recommend it . It was lovely and clean and comfortable and the hot tub was a bonus thanks from the Atkinson family
Absolutely fab property. It really has been a great stay with everything you'd expect from a high end listing in Whitby. We've booked again for next year already.
Maxine
Very nice property, clean and comfortable, all bedrooms good size plenty of storage. Hot tub was a nice extra but outside area could do with a tidy. Some areas could do with an update but overall we enjoyed our stay. Location was good about a 510 min walk down hill into Whitby but a steep walk back. Whitby was lovely plenty of places to eat, had some really nice meals.
Terence
Probably one of the best holiday rentals we have used, we found that Abbey View was located in a good position, and made a handy base for our week in Whitby. We enjoyed the hot tub, a new experience for us. Would highly recommend this holiday home.
We did not like all the signs regards the hot tub. There far too many and felt unwelcoming. We did not use the hot tub or sit in garden as we were worried about making noise even in a normal voice. The parking is I feel more for 2 cars not 3 as advertised as mini tree planted at the property get in the way. Don't want Paint scratching. The neighbors also made parking different as well which I feel was on purpose.
Elaine
There were notices all around the property stating that the neighbours were increasing complaining about noise and that occupants would be asked to leave immediately. We had two young children in our party and found ourselves constantly asking them to be quiet. We also didn't use the hot tub because if this. There was also a scheduled power cut one morning from 9 until 11am. Apparently letters had been sent to property owners but the information wasn't passed on to us. Given that electricity is the only power source in the property, this was very inconvenient. The property is very nice however, due to being in a residential area, I would not book another stay or recommend it.
Lovely property, would benefit from new pillows on the beds and a clothes horse to dry washing on wet days as no tumble dryer . No information about bins or recycling when we arrived bins were already overflowing so could use them , we arrived on Friday and could not put rubbish in the bins till late Wednesday afternoon . Parking is an issue drive is very narrow and has bushes as you drive in which are sharp and catch arms,legs and clothes. Two cars are very tight when parked in the drive which you are asked to do. This was made worse by house directly opposite which had adequate parking on their drive but parked a very large car on the road all the time The road is far to narrow to do this and it made it impossible to drive out or into the drive unless you went around the block one way only which was three times longer . Hot tub was really nice especially now it has a gazebo . There is a small alleyway at the side of the house which if covered would make an ideal place to dry off before coming back into the house after using the hot tub. Perhaps an idea for the future. All in all a nice property . There
Rebecca
Great place to stay we would recommend. We were cautious of noise given it is in a residential area and the hot tub can only be used until 10pm. However the place is great beautifully decorated and in a fab location just a 10 minute walk to Whitby. We would definitely go back.
Stacey
This house is beautiful inside, very spacious for 6 people. Was nice to just have a weekend relaxing with the girls. It is in a fabulous location, 5 minutes walking distance into Whitby. I would definitely recommend staying here. This is something I will look to book again in the future.
We loved our stay at abbey view it was very clean and had everything we needed. We would recommend this place too all our friends. We cant wait too book again.

Please note that some of these activities and days out are paid and it's always a good idea to book in advance to secure your place where applicable.

Found a special day out near your cottage? Please let us know and we'll add it so that other visitors can enjoy it too!
The Grainary Wildlife Farm - YO25 3HS
about 10 Miles
Located in Harwood Dale Village, North Yorkshire we think this attraction makes a superb family day out and couples will also enjoy the nature walks in the area.  There are 6 nature walks in total surrounding the farm so walkers and lovers of the outdoors will be in their element. Some of our favourite walks include the Spring Flowers, Pond and Village walk which takes around 35 minutes, and the Meadow and Trees walk which takes one hour.
Scarborough Sea Life and Marine Sanctuary - YO12 6RP
about 14 Miles
If you are enjoying a lodge break in the Yorkshire Moors and Coast then a day trip to the Scarborough Sea Life and Marine Sanctuary highly recommended. This centre is one of the regions most popular attractions and is educational as well as fun. Visitors will enjoy a journey beneath the waves, meeting many strange, beautiful and fascinating creatures of the deep. As well as mighty sharks and beautiful rays guests can get up close to some more common creatures including star fish and can also meet the otters, seals and penguins at feeding time. The site also has children's play area and picnic tables as well as a restaurant and souvenir shop. Family tickets cost £46.80 but the Tourist Information Centres in Scarborough, Whitby or Filey often offer fantastic discounts.
Sea Life Marine Sanctuary - YO12 6RP
about 14 Miles
Located in the Scalby Mills area of Scarborough this makes a fun family day out for those who are interested in marine life. The fantastic ocean tank is well worth seeing - it's been transformed into a Turtle Reef and you can see an amazing array of colourful reef fish and coral. You may also catch a glimpse of the tropical sharks and turtles. Offering good value for money this is a day out with a difference and an all weather attraction.
Peasholm Park - YO12 6QQ
about 15 Miles
This attraction is ideal for sunny days as the beautiful park is ideal for wandering out and taking in the scenery.  You can hire boats including rowing boats and canoes to enjoy the views from the water.  The pedalos with the dragon heads are always a popular choice too. Look out for special events including the Battle of Peasholm Park Naval Battle which has been described as a "must see".  You can also take a ride on the North Bay Railway which will delight children.
Betton Farm Visitor Centre - TF9 3PS
about 16 Miles
Betton Farm Visitor Centre is the ideal attraction close to the North Yorkshire coastal town of Scarborough. This animal farm has all the cute farm animals you would expect to see and will appeal to younger children especially.  A great place to both play and learn we think the Betton Farm Visitor centre is great value for money.  Check out their website for the latest opening times and admission costs.  Some of the highlights of the day might include meeting Sofie the Shetland Pony and Henry the goat, as well as the pot bellied pigs called Porky and Hammy. 
Flamingo Land - YO60 7EW
about 20 Miles
Situated in Malton in North Yorkshire this has to be one of our favourite family days out.  It's a theme park and zoo all in one stretching over a massive 400 acres. With thrilling rides for the very daring like Cliff Hanger, Corkscrew and Kumali, there are also more gentle rides for the little ones such as Frog Hopper and Helitoys.  Family fun attractions include the 4D cinema, the lost river ride and the Little Monsters Den of Mischief. Check out their website for seasonal events which take place throughout the year and you can also gain more information about the zoo.  Flamingo Land is a resort as well as a theme park so you can also book accommodation there.
Castle Howard - YO60 7DA
about 27 Miles
Castle Howard is one of the regions most beautiful and historic landmarks and is located in 1,000 acres of parkland with breathtaking gardens to explore. As well as exploring the castle visitors can enjoy attractios including the unique Land Train - the best way to see the entire park. There is also a large lake offering boat trips during the summer months. In high season the site is very popular with families and offers organised activities for children including tours, talks, crafting and animal encounters. The site also has a Nature Trail which is fun for the whole family and an Adventure Playground where children can run off some energy.
Yorkshire Lavender - YO60 6PB
about 28 Miles
Yorkshire Lavender is an amazing award winning attraction offering breathtaking panoramic views of York, a Café, Plant Nursery and Lavender Gardens. The 60 acre site is set in an area of outstanding natural beauty and is an excellent choice for a day trip. The onsite shops sells Lavender products such as bath and body treats, skincare, medicine and herbal remedies.
