Host & Stay | Clinker Cottage
Summary: Nestled in the seaside town of Whitby on the North Yorkshire coast, you’ll find Clinker Cottage. This cosy cottage is perfect for a couples retreat or a small family getaway. Ideally located in the heart of the town, you’ll have restaurants, cafes, shops and pubs to explore right on the doorstep. Whitby beach is also a short 5-minute walk away so you can really make the most of your coastal escape. If you’re looking for a homely place to stay, look no further than Clinker Cottage.
The Space: Clinker Cottage is a welcoming and snug holiday home in Whitby. This small two-bedroom cottage features a living room, fully equipped kitchen, double bedroom, shower room and loft twin bedroom.
When entering the cottage, you’ll be welcomed into the living room. Cosy and stylish, this space is perfect for relaxing during your stay. Featuring a comfortable, velvet sofa and a large flat screen TV, you can retreat here after a fun-filled day exploring Whitby.
Following on from this space is the kitchen. Sleek and sophisticated in design, the kitchen features high shine cabinets and star print tiles. Fully equipped with modern amenities and appliances, you’ll have everything you could need for your self-catering stay. You can prepare home cooked meals by making use of the oven, microwave, kettle, fridge freezer and toaster. There is also the added luxury of a coffee machine so you can kick start each day with a fresh coffee!
Also sharing this space is a breakfast bar with two black stools where you can enjoy meals and a drink during your stay.
Head upstairs to the first floor and you’ll find the master bedroom and bathroom. Tranquil and cosy, the master bedroom boasts crisp white walls and abstract wall art. There is also a beautiful, original fireplace which brings a traditional twist to the otherwise contemporary space.
The main bathroom in Clinker Cottage is accessed via the master bedroom. Clean and modern, it includes a walk-in shower, WC and basin.
Take the winding staircase from the master bedroom up to the second floor and you’ll reach the loft bedroom. This space features sloped ceilings, original beams and single twin beds.

Guest Access: Guests have access to the full property. The keys to the property are accessed via a secure key safe and full details will be provided shortly before your arrival date.
A number of pay & display car parks can be found close by.
The Neighborhood: Set on the West side of Whitby, Clinker Cottage is just a short walk from the central Flowergate. Find cosy pubs, fun arcades and plenty of fish restaurants on Pier Road. Venture along the lively road and you’ll reach the beautiful, blue flag West Cliff Beach which is lined with idyllic beach huts. At the other end of Pier Road, you’ll find the swing bridge which sits over the River Esk.
On the opposite side of the bridge is the East bank. The side of Whitby is full of narrow, medieval streets dotted with boutiques, pubs and fish restaurants. Climb the famous 199 steps up to the Church of Saint Mary. You can also discover 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.
Getting Around: The centre of Whitby is a short ten-minute walk from Clinker Cottage.
Whitby train station is less than half a mile away on foot 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.

Disliked: Cleanliness
A servicable place to sleep but the upkeep needs looking into. The double bed was broken and sagging on arrival which didn't get fixed until the next day, and the paint in the living room is peeling as well as the (very small) shower room having mould from previous guests not ventalating it while showering. This accomodation is also unsuitable for anyone with mobility issues because the stair cases are more like ladders.If you just need a place to sleep and store your stuff then its fine.

Good location, tiny and disappointing
As is normally the case the photos don’t quite reflect the property’s condition. We would like to give a balanced review and fundamentally the property is in a great location, even though no parking but can be found in adjacent streets with permit provided. The property isn’t suitable for a family due to size. Overwhelmingly the damp which is evident in many places is an issue, as is the loose and degrading paint and loose and degrading skirting and quadrant. Fridge wasn’t clean, the appliances were aged (freezer door hanging off) and work surfaces not cleaned. There are some nice touches to the decor. En suite modern. No remote for the upstairs heating panel so was cold throughout our stay. Again great location but property is tired and needs to be brought to better standard.
