Absolutely loved the cottage on our recent four night stay. Very clean, great facilities, superb location, right in the middle of the town but hidden down a gated alley so was extremely quiet and felt very safe. Would highly recommend. Thank you.

Location of Black Gem Cottage is perfect. Very central in Whitby and just a short walk from the public car parking. This is a quirky old cottage but the owners have done their best to modernise and add all the required amenities. Underfloor...
