Thanks for a superb break. See you in the summer.

Very comfortable, warm and clean and ideal for a winter break when you need a home from home base. Thank you.

The apartment is the best I have ever stayed in! It far exceeded my expectations with its fantastic location and superb standard of accommodation. Every window has a stunning view and we loved the fact that we had our own car parking space. Thank you Shoreline we will definitely be back to this apartment.

Love the Shoreline ethos - Ideal cottage, well equipped and in an ideal location. Third stay in the Bakehouse and I dare say it won't be our last. Shoreline team as friendly and helpful as ever and a credit to the company.

After returning just for a short weekend break we went back to firstly Shoreline great and seemless service, and back to Stakesby House it was like we had never left in the summer of 2009 , great std , like visting a cosy place we called home while we are there , thanks again see you very soon.

Kipper cottage....a great cottage!

The place was brilliant. We were really impressed,felt like we were at a posh hotel. Thank you

We thoughly enjoyed our stay in Whitby & wished we all could have stayed longer.

We will be booking for the same time next year hopefully

Fantastic holiday. Cottage lovely, warm and inviting on arrival. Perfectly met our needs. We'll be back!

Very nice comfortable cottage and staff very helpful and quick to resolve problems.

Having visited Shoreline over a period of 9 years the 'ohh ahh' factor is still there.

Appreciated having basics like wash up liquid, dishwasher tabs, loo roll etc provided. Kitchen very well equipped. Fresh decor in appropriate seaside style for quaint,cosy cottage. Cottage very clean. Excellent location with lovely beach walk to Whitby. Overall a lovely short break -thanks!

Totally enjoyed the break Thank you

Thanks again, another great stay in Whitby. Have a superb new year.

Had no problems during stay.Met staff on arrival who were exceptionally helpful

Only thing we missed having in the flat was some DVDs for the cold winter's nights! It was fantastic though, really enjoyed the week.

This was quite simply the best holiday house we have ever stayed in ! Thank you!!

A warm, comfortable stay, considering the weather. Yard a bit treacherous in the icy weather though. Very comfortable bed.

Thank you for providing such a lovely house we had a great time and will be back.

The appartment was brilliant. Absolutely lovely. Lovely views well equipped and in a good position. Will definitely book again as well as using Captains Quarters for family holidays. Thank you to Billy for his help.

Fabulous value and a great stay. Excellent service from start to finish - David was charming and a pleasure to deal with. We'll be back!

Fabulous cottage, we had two first timers with us who didn't know what to expect and they were amazed by the whole experience. Well done we will be back.

Had a lovely stay at Turnerdale Cottage again - the cottage is always so warm and welcoming when we arrive, thanks to Billy and team we always enjoy our stay there and look forward to the next which can't come soon enough.

Great apartment at a fair price. Look forward to returning in the future. Thanks.

We had a fantastic time. We love the Quayside! Very cosy and a view to die for. Thanks.

Great place !

We were all bowled over by the cottage and had a great weekend, will definitely be back

Loved the layout of the apartment and the views from the lounge/kitchen windows were interesting, ever changing with lots to see . The furniture was very comfortable, particularly the bed, no problem sleeping. Our guests were very pleased too.

Enjoyed our stay in the cottage, very cosy with the open flame fire - makes all the difference after a day out.

We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay, thank you. We will be in touch in the future!

Both ourselves and our guests were very impressed with the house and it fitted our requirements (a 60th birthday party) perfectly. Many thanks.

The cottage was fine except for the lack of mirrors. I know this probably sounds a bit daft, but when you're attending the WGW full length mirrors are a must !! Apart from that we had a great time.

Overall an excellent stay which was undoubtedly complemented by the comfort and styling of the cottage.

We've stayed in Whitby many times before and this was without doubt the best accommodation we've experienced. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Henrietta Cottage to others and very much hope that I'll have the opportunity to return in future. On our final day Billy was incredibly helpful as we checked out in advance of our trains and he helped us manage our luggage. Overall we thought the cottage was superb - the fire was particularly well appreciated on windy nights!

This was our second visit to the cottage, so you can tell how much we loved it the first time! It is cosy, deceptively spacious and comfortable with stunning views over the bay - and a lovely setting for another family get-together. We will be back...

This was the first time we've rented a cottage so therefore I can not really make any comparisons to your rivals. However, we would be pleased to rent your properties again and will do so. Everything we experienced was brilliant. For your information, my wife found the cottage to be exceptionally clean and was very impressed & pleased. Thank you

Excellent house for a group. Thanks

Caedmon house was an excellent base for our holiday, the house its self was brilliant with lots of space and very well presented. Thanks very much!

Stakesby was a superb accommodation but maybe just a little too far out of town after a long day walking on the moors,but on balance it was worth it.Would probably use it again.

Very happy with the cottage. Kitchen has been well organised with everything you could possibly need, bed comfortable, we have stayed at the old smoke house properties a couple of times with larger group so new the location we wanted but just for two of us.It was perfect thank you.

Thanks once again to Shoreline Cottages, BIlly and the weather for a lovely family few days in Whitby.

Thought the cottage was lovely.

Thanks for a lovely stay!

Another excellent weekend. Apartment lovely - got all the things you need, home from home. Thanks Shoreline. Hope to be back soon.

This is the 4th time we have stayed in Captains Quarters and suits our requirement, especially being so dog friendly. Would stay with Shoreline again.

First time stay with shoreline and had a very enjoyable break at Henrietta cottage. Will book again.

A lot of care has gone into the original decor design and presentation. The cottage had a lot of individual charm and it made for an enjoyable stay.

Really enjoyed the cottage. It was really clean, cosy and Billy was extremely helpful.

St Hilda's is a really beautiful property - the online pictures don't do it justice! Overall, the property exceeded expectations by a long way and every member of our party left very reluctantly.

Turnerdale Cottage is a home from home and is always welcoming when we arrive - lights and music on. Also as always warm thanks to Billy and the rest of the team

Caedmon house in Sandsend was the perfect venue to base ourselves for a Diamond Wedding Anniversary Celebration! All 9 of us enjoyed the 3 days we spent there. The weather was kind to us also, but the views were so lovely that it wouldn't have mattered too much if it had rained!!. It suited all ages in our party and we plan to return next year for another celebration!

We had a problem with the boiler at the apartment, your manager Mr Billy Watt was quick to sort the problem. We found him very pleasant ,amenable and courteous, in fact a very nice person.

Second visit. Really enjoy the setting and the view for a weekend away.

All I can say is fantastic, brilliant, magic, great and thank Billy Watt too. It is nice to talk to people so helpful from booking to enquiries. We will be back and would have the same apartment. It was great. Thanks to all at Shoreline. You made our holiday what a holiday should be.

Cottage was lovely, very clean, well equipped etc. except that there were no matches and a gas hob. Maybe there is a gas lighter but if so I never found it. I will happily use Shoreline again.

Enjoyed our stay. This was new to us as we stay in hotels but thought we would give it a try as we were bringing a two year old. We would rent again. Many thanks for an enjoyable break in Whitby.

Accommodation was well presented and very comfortable. Good to have off road car parking available at the accommodation. Easy short walk to Whitby harbour and shops/restaurants.

At the booking stage there was an issue with the acceptance of the credit card, which was possibly due to a 'one letter' error on the billing address which caused the the bank security system to question & thus suspended the booking.However at approx 2145hrs! I optimistically called Shoreline and spoke to a very helpful gentleman who resolved the issue in minutes and the booking was made. That is,and was, excellent service! Our booking was last minute so would opt for a cottage rather than an apartment in future and it noted that Shoreline had interestingly sited cottages in Whitby. Our apartment was very good.

Excellent break - cottage very good - we will be back.

The house was amazing. We had a fantastic time and would not hesitate to recommend your company and St Hilda's in particular. Thank you.

Please pass on our thanks to your manager for responding so promptly to the problem of our boiler breaking down. Please also pass on thanks to the owner who arranged to have a plumber fix the boiler the next day. The plumber drove a long distance back to Whitby the day after he had diagnosed the problem in order to fix it for us.Thanks so much to everyone. Had a lovely holiday and very impressed with Shoreline!

1st Time with Shoreline.. will be the first of many

Stakesby House offers a very high standard of accommodation. Beautifully furnished and very well equipped, it is certainly one of the best holiday rentals we've ever had.

Yet another fantastic holiday, thanks Shoreline

We were delighted with the cottage and your service the location was wonderful as we aleady knew it would be!

Very satisfied with accomodation and love Whitby. See you again soon!!

We enjoyed a very enjoyable week in Captains Quarters.

Well situated cottage and we really enjoyed our stay in Sandsend.

The cottage was beautiful and my girlfriend and I were thrilled when we walked through the front door. We had absolutely no complaints whatsoever. The place was spotless, spacious and superbly furnished. I shall be recommending Shoreline and Whitby to everyone.

We had a thoroughly enjoyable holiday, with plenty of walking and relaxation. We may return but there are so many other places for usstill to visit in the UK. We would definitely recommend Shoreline - very high quality properties to rent.

Brilliant holiday apartment. Only issues were that tin opener was broken and the hoover was not very powerful!

Many thanks for a lovely holiday and great cottage. All the family enjoyed including the pet dog. Looking forward to seeing you soon.

The apartment is lovely, a great location and well furnished.

We had really good holiday. Convenient position for beach and surrounding seaside villages. Beautiful sea views from all front windows. Loads of space for all of us. I had a wonderful 70th birthday with children and grandchildren. Would recommend Shoreline unreservedly.

Cannot get the DVD player to work. Otherwise superb.

We had a fabulous holiday. A large selling point of this holiday was the fantastic views from the old sail loft.

We had a fantastic time - thank you so much! (The view from the cottage was amazing!)

Had a fabulous time. Thanks

Really enjoyed another Shoreline Cottages holiday!

Just like to say that Billy is a real asset to Shoreline Cottages

Brilliant stay! Thanks

The allocated parking is a bonus in Whitby and the double aspect view over the harbour and Esk terrific.

Riverside App. was lovely, it was an ideal location with lovely views of the ever changing river Esk. We also found the steam trains very interesting. It was a nice walk into the hustle and bustle of town. The app. was very well equiped with absolutely everthing you may require, excellent attention to detail which all helps to make your holiday more enjoyable. Thank you.

Definitley will be returning to one of Shoreline Cottages

We didn't actually visit Whitby - the cottage was chosen for its location inland and we really enjoyed the walking available. A lovely weekend.

To say that the accommodation was a very pleasant surprise. Definitely coming back - maybe not this year but hopefully 2010. Thank you.

We had an enjoyable time at Kiln Cottage.

Both houses we stayed in - Spring Vale and St Hildas were beautiful.

Absolutely loved the cottage. Perfect perfect perfect cottage. Lovely and clean, everything there you could possibly need.

Very much enjoyed our stay.

We write we in reference to our lovely stay last week at your Cottage - Stakesby House. What a lovely cottage - great setting to explore the Yorkshire Coast. The whole booking and then arrival at the cottage was seamless. We would love to recommend your company and this Property. We look forward to returning to the area and trying other cottages but a big thanks to Stakesby House for setting a good standard.

Gorgeous cottage. Will definitely be using Shoreline again and again. Thanks for making places like this available for us to stay

Just like to say that Billy is a real asset to Shoreline Cottages

We had an absolutely fabulous time, I booked at short notice so expected only basic cottages to be available but we were delighted. Some friends of ours came to see us for the day while we were there and I believe they are going to book the cottage very soon. Thank you so much, it was the best holiday we have had with our 2 year old. Thanks Shoreline!!!

The apartment was fantastic the views from the many windows fabulous the weather idylic (only Shoreline cannot take the credit for that) the little thoughtful details ie TV mag, washing tablets, drink and biscuits to tide us over whilst we got to the shops, books and games made it very special. To quote my husband on arrival 'There are very few times that I am pleasantly supprised, but I am very impressed this time' Thank you for a lovely experience, we hope to book again soon.

Our stay in Cuddy was excellent and we have no adverse comments ~ just the opposite. Our only comment would be that we couldn't get the washer going!! Thanks for a lovely break.

The accommodation, facilities, booking procedure, staff etc were all fantastic.

We have stayed at the High Tide apartment some time ago and found it stili to the same high standard of furnishing, equipment etc. As we arrived early, Billy sorted an early entry as the cleaner had just finished. Thanks again.

I would like to say how impressed my friend and I were with your local man (Geoff) who helped us with the cooker. We met him again as we were leaving yesterday and he is so helpful and pleasant - a real credit to Shoreline Cottages. Thank you for a lovely stay, we thoroughly enjoyed Mariners Cottage - having looked at it when we stayed before at Abbey View the inside came as a lovely surprise as the outside doesn't do it justice.

We had a great short break. We will be back!

We had a great holiday in Whitby and Henrietta Cottage was just what we were looking for and was in a great location, we have no complaints.

We stayed in the Old Sail Loft and it was lovely. I think your website undersells it. We had just had a week in the lakes in a '5 star' cottage and yours was much better. No problems with the accommodation at all. Thank you!

I have hired cottages in the past, and this one was the cleanest and best. in terms of furnishings and equipment. One thing that I would love is a really good quality mattress on the bed. I have never found one yet, but I m not complaining because I think your property was great and you have the best cleaner I have ever come across!

What a great experience. I really appreciate the systems you have in place (key retrieval, note behind sink to remind visitors check-out is 10am - good stuff).

We had an exceptional holiday and the main reason (to take our dog on holiday) proved very successful and happy that you accepted animals. You proved to be professional and i really liked the text to confirm entry and address - very nice touch. We were lucky with the weather too. Will certainly use your company again. Thank you very much! Howard Paul and Alfie the retriever!

We had a great wee holiday & thought the flat was nice, loved the view & the fact we could park the car there.

Good general care with the booking and helpful. Everything was lovely Thank you

Excellent apartment with superb view of abbey. Couldn't mfault anything as it had everything we wanted. Will be coming back.

Simply stunning. Fab shower, fluffy towels & superb views. Great!

Excellent - apartment & weather!

A brilliant place. Well appointed and very comfortable. Will recommend it.

A wonderful holiday in a great flat with everything you could wish for & very good quality.

Excellent, very comfortable - well stocked kitchen - most enjoyable stay.

Excellent accomodation, Very high standard of finish. Great views and location. Would defintiely come again.

We stayed at Scarborough in 106 and had a great time. Dawn (the owner) visited and was exceptionally accommodating.

Very grateful for Geoff's speedy response to our call about the flooded dishwasher and quick replacement. We had a full house and there was plenty of room.

Really enjoyed the stay and we were delighted with the cottage

Very enjoyable short break. Enjoyed the view. The web site does not do this justice. A couple of deck chairs to sit outside in the evening would have been nice but still throughly enjoyed the stay.

Thank you so much for sorting out the booking at such short notice, you never dissapoint. My husband really enjoyed the bottle of wine and birthday card, it was a lovelly suprise. We hope to return later in the year. Many thanks.

Everything great. You even provided the weather! Thanks very much, we all had a lovely time.

The booking process was really easy, especially as we were very last-minute. The help we got from Billy (parking, hot water) was excellent.. It was nice to have teabags etc on arrival and little things like dishwasher tablets that are so annoying to have to buy in bulk!

The reason for our trip to whitby was a ladies darts weekend .There were eight of us and we had a fantastic time. Many thanks - without a fab place to stay we wouldn't have had the fab time we did .Many thanks - we will be back.

It is unlikely that we would holiday again in the area but if we did I would have no hesitation in using Shoreline cottages. The property was excellent and the welcome biscuits/coffee,tea etc were very thoughtful. Many thanks to Jacqui and Colin.

The cottage was well nice. Needed the break - the sun was out the four days we there. Went for lots of walks with the dog, had lots to drink, we sat outside the pubs it was that warm. Even went on the boat - it was just great. Just what I needed. Many Thanks.

Lovely property, well equipped, great views, very clean. No problems at all - except having to leave!

Was an excellent apartment, the website reflects this fairly and set out expectations.

The views from the Old Sail Loft were better than what\'s shown on the website. Fantastic location as it was close enough to walk into the town centre but just far away enough from the hustle and bustle. This was my 2nd time to Whitby and I would definitely stay in a Shoreline Cottage again. It was also my 6 month old son's first holiday and he thoroughly enjoyed it!!

We had a great break and the cottage and Sandsend were ideal for our needs. We did forget to write in the guest book. We have already recommended Shoreline and are planning our next trip to the Whitby area.

We had a problem with our DVD your rep in Whitby was excellent and went out of his way to sort out the problem for us

We really enjoy staing at Turnerdale Cottage and its like our second home now.

An enjoyable stay and an enjoyable cottage. Thanks.

The house was fabulous although could have done with an extra knife when trying to cook sunday lunch - was difficult preparing the veg with a bread knife!

I came to Whitby for the Goth Festival and this cottage satisfied all my needs.

We were very pleased with our stay in St Hilda's and were delighted that there were new settees and chair in the main lounge. Our party of 8 had a great holiday. Would definitely recommend Shoreline to our friends

All was great, as usual! Shoreline Cottages are easily the best I've used in Whitby, and I very much intend to be back next year!

Another excellent weekend spent in one of your beautiful accomodations. We will be back again as soon as we can. Thank you

As usual we found the property to be of a very high standard and ideally located for Whitby's amenities. The parking space is a godsend! It is so much better now that we can collect the keys from the keysafe and let ourselves in as we visit Whitby fairly often and waiting for a member of staff to meet us was a pain! We will definitely use Shoreline again and have recommended you to many of our friends and family.

Very nice location - just what we needed!

What a fantastic place! I have never been to such a great place before and will definitely be back.

The standard of the accommodation was exceptional. Upon arrival it was such a lovely welcome having pleasant music being played from the music system. The kitchen had everything you could think of. The bathroom was fantastic and the added feature of a whirlppol bath was greatly appreciated. The soft fluffy towels just topped it off. Thanks for an abolutely fantastic short break. I will definitely be using you again and have already mentioned you to my friends and family.

Having used Shoreline previously I knew we wouldn't be disappointed and St Hilda's is an outstanding property in every way: well furnished and equipped, well maintained and spotlessly clean. A problem with the garage door was dealt with by Billy who kept us informed. The door handle on the twin bedroom by the lounge stuck and jammed so perhaps needs minor attention. Thank you once again, we enjoyed our visit so much and will continue to use Shoreline.

Had a wonderful holiday. The cottage was very clean. Thank you very much for allowing us to have the cottage earlier in the day.

The flat at County Loft was great.

Just returned from a wonderful holiday in Caedmon House. Apart from the CD player being somewhat erratic ( and this is only the smallest worry!) everything else about the place and our stay there was exceptional - after 5 nights we have all left feeling relaxed and refreshed after spending time with the family in a comfortable, cosy, well-equipped and beautifully decorated home-from-home. The location was excellent and we all hope to return to Sandsend in the future.Thank you very much!

This was our third visit to Turnerdale. we love it and will definitely return again.

Third year at Quayside - just bliss!

Thank you Shoreline, perfect accommodation, made the stay extremely special.

Thank you Shoreline, perfect accommodation, made the stay extremely special.

Probably the most user friendly website we have come across, the flexibility with available days was excellent as we cannot usually book for the usual mon-thurs or fri to sunday and was therefore happy to pay that little bit extra.

This was a perfect place for our wedding party - far beyond expectations. We wall wanted to live there! As a result one of the party is planning to marry in Whitby later this year and wants to book St Hildas. We have already booked to visit Whitby again next month for the Gothic weekend, although a smaller place next time - but I am sure it will be first class. I am also sure we will be booking this 'cottage' again for a longer stay in the future. Absolutely wonderful.

We were all very impressed with every aspect of St Hilda's.

We love staying at Turnerdale and will definitely be back - its home from home as far as we're concerned and Gypsy the dalmation loves it so much she gets upset when we have to leave!!

Thank you Billy for all your help - it was much appreciated. Please inform me of any special deals as I will definitely be staying with Shoreline again.

Fabulous cottage - the best we have ever stayed in. We will be back.

VERY COSY IN COTTAGE. MADE IT EASY TO RELAX AND ENJOY HOLIDAY.

Lovely apartment, superb location.

We had a lovely stay in the cottage; it was lovely and clean and exceptionally well stocked. The dishwasher was a treat, as was the fact that you provided toilet rolls, dishwasher tablets, washing up liquid, etc. Thank you very much; we will certainly use you again and recommend you to all our friends.

Wheelchair access to the apartment was excellent; you should market this fact. It made life very easy for our stay; thank you.

Thank you again for a lovely stay. The cottage was very well equipped and the location was great; it really is the perfect place for two people.

We had a lovely stay in the cottage and it was lovely and clean and exceptionally well stocked, the dishwasher was a treat as was the fact that you provided loo rolls, dishwasher tablets, washing up liquid etc....Thank you very much, we will certainly use you again and recommend you to all our friends.

Another brilliant addition to the Shoreline collection of properties. We will definitely be returning some time soon.

The cottage was great; we had a lovely family time and will definitely be booking next year.

We had an excellent holiday, the best we have had for a long time. The accommodation was absolutely excellent. We enjoyed the break so much that we are already talking with friends about booking St Hilda's again. Thank you again for your excellent service.

Thanks for a lovely break; the cottage was lovely and warm and welcoming. We will be back in the New Year!

What a breath of fresh air - a professionally run business with quality accommodation; many thanks. We came up for the fossil hunting and will definitely use Shoreline again.

We have been visiting Henrietta Cottage for several years now because the location is very good and it meets our needs very well as this property will accept pets. I like the online booking procedure, especially being able to see what is available and when and at what price.

We had a fab weekend. It was our first time in Whitby but I would definitely go back for a weekend in the future. The cottage was lovely and it made the weekend so much better having somewhere nice to stay.

We had a lovely holiday in a lovely cottage and will be back again.

The photographs do not do the cottage justice; it has more space than appeared in them and is in excellent condition. The key safe is excellent, with no time pressures to meet someone to collect the keys. Thank you, we had a great time.

The pictures on the website did not do justice to the overall view of the beach and harbour. The cottage was comfortable and cosy for a short break.

We appreciated the comfort and cleanliness of the cottage; other companies have not always been reliable. It looked as though it had only just been re-decorated which, at this point in the season, is remarkable! Thank you, it was a very pleasant stay and we hope to try more cottages in the future as well as return to Harlow.

The house was lovely and we appreciated the on-the-ground personal service. Thank you very much for a lovely short stay.

The welcoming music and the heating on was a lovely touch. We were very impressed and all loved the cottage; thank you.

This is our fourth visit with Shoreline Cottages and we can't imagine using any other holiday let company!

Thank you once again for a lovely holiday. The weather was perfect, the cottage - as usual - exceptional and a good time was had by all. We will be booking again next year.

This is the second time we have been with Shoreline Cottages this year. The cottage was great and the garden fantastic; even the sun shone all week! It was a great holiday and we will see you again.

Due to a change of procedure, nobody was there to meet us. However, the staff were very helpful on the 'phone and even organised for us to get into the cottage earlier than the standard check-in time, which was very much appreciated after the five hour journey. We would recommed the cottage and your company to anyone; thanks for a great short break.

Overall a great break in a super apartment with fantastic views - well done!

Another fantastic stay in Whitby and High Tide lived up to the standard we know we can confidently expect when we use Shoreline. Well equipped, ideally situated and wonderful views. We have used Shoreline for many years and stayed in over half the properties. I can honestly say there isn't one that we wouldn't return to. Thank you, Shoreline - to all the team both in Leeds and in Whitby.

We enjoyed our holiday very much; the cottage was comfortable and well equipped.

Arrangements and instructions for arrival and entry are straightforward and stress-free. One of our group is disabled; access to the apartment and overnight storage of the hired scooter couldn't have been much better. Overall, the Old Sail Loft made a very enjoyable and pleasant stay.

We are really pleased to have found out about Shoreline Cottages as we have now witnessed the best cottages we have ever used. Thanks for a great break!

We had an amazing time; the house couldn't have been better!

We could not have wished for a better place - thank you.

A lovely cottage and a fantastic attic bedroom! We will definitely be returning.

We had a really nice stay. The cottage was in a very good location for Whitby and many other places. We would definitely book with Shoreline again.

High Tide is in a wonderful location, was very comfortable and very quiet; we'll be back!

We were very impressed by the facilities, decor and cleanliness at Sorrel Cottage. The interior design and furnishings were excellent and the cottage was very well appointed.

We had a fantastic time. Thanks again to Shoreline for making it all so easy. We'll definitely be going back as soon as possible.

Although I have put that you met expectations, my expectations were high from the website. We were very pleased with the house in Sandsend and had a fabulous time.

The cottage was of a very high standard and in a perfect spot. We will definitely visit again; we loved it!

I took my elderly parents along for a much needed break and found Sorrel Cottage ideal for their needs; thank you.

We were pleased we chose Shoreline Cottages. The apartment we stayed in was clean, well equipped and in a quiet location. We enjoyed our holiday but found Whitby itself very crowded in August. We really enjoyed the surrounding villages and area.

Our first stay in Whitby and with Shoreline Cottages. We loved it and we will definitely be back; we had a wonderful, relaxing holiday.

Thanks for another great stay; we will definitely be back to stay with you again.

We had an excellent time in Whitby and the surrounding areas. The cottage was lovely and we are looking forward to coming back some time soon.

Shoreline have never let us down yet. This was our first visit to Mariner's Cottage and the accommodation was just as stunning as the others we have stayed in; it is ideally situated.

We had a lovely stay in Spring Vale Cottage. The location was great as we could walk into Whitby with the buggies and stop at the swings in Pannett Park on the way! Thanks for a lovely cottage.

We had a fabulous time and would recommend Shoreline Cottages to anyone. The arrangements to collect the keys were simple and straightforward, which is exactly what you need after travelling over 200 miles.

The cottage was gorgeous and perfect for our short break. It was ideally situated and very easy to find. We were very pleased with everything the cottage offered.

This was my second holiday in a Shoreline cottage so I already expected a very high standard of accommodation. Prince of Wales was as I expected; it was a great place to stay and a great time was had by all.

A very enjoyable week - the weather was the only thing that spoilt it on our last day! Otherwise, everything was as lovely as ever - we will certainly be back.

A great location and ideal for popping into Whitby. Loved the interior decor of the cottage. The booking process was simple and the staff really helpful; we would definitely use Shoreline again.

A lovely house with plenty of space. The location was excellent - really close to the shops and cafes but quiet enough to get away from the crowds.

A really good holiday - just what we needed. We parked the car up and just had a good time walking the dog. The weather was great and we will be booking again.

This is the first time we have used self-catering accommodation in over 20 years and we were very happy with the experience.

Simple to book and the apartment was very comfortable.

Right from the booking stage when my computer was playing up and Shoreline rang me to confirm the booking, I knew I'd chosen well! However, when we arrived the standard of the apartment far exceeded expectations; the setting was brilliant and I would heartily recommend it to all. Thank you for a wonderful break.

This accommodation was excellent - a modern, well equipped flat in a fantastic location. The accommodation overlooked the estuary running from the sea to the River Esk; the wonderful views of the abbey and the whole of Whitby were idyllic. The location was excellent as it allowed you to explore the whole of Whitby and return back to a quiet location to relax in modern surroundings. This was our first experience of Whitby - EXCELLENT! Thanks, Shoreline.

County Loft was extremely well equipped, beautifully furnished and exceeded all expectations of a holiday home.

Fantastic accommodation and facilities.

We (my mum and dad, sister, myself and my little boy) were all very impressed. Everything was perfect and we had absolutely no complaints. We all felt as if we were leaving a second home behind on the departure day! Thank you.

We were wonderfully warm and comfortable in mixed weather - Seagull Cottage made a lovely holiday home.

We had a great week at the Old Sail Loft. The views were amazing and the layout was perfect for us and our small boys. It was fab to have towels and tea and coffee, and a dishwasher! It definitely felt like a cut about the usual holiday cottages - very luxurious.

We found the cottage to be of a high standard throughout. What impressed me was that, as a cottage accepting pets, there was definitely no smell of dogs - excellent! The local Spar is a saviour, as are its opening hours. We would highly recommend the Stables Restaurant at the Cross Butts on the way into Whitby, as well as the pub in the village of Ellerby. We had a fab holiday and would like to return in the future.

The style in each of the two cottages we have stayed in has been very tasteful which allows us to settle in easily and this is a great start to your holiday. The cottages are always immaculately clean. Shoreline, in my experience, are superb and we will be returning!

As a family, we could spend all year at Caedmon House; we simply love it!

Everything was great and we will definitely stay with Shoreline again.

We had a great time and the cottage was excellent. We like the attention to detail and feel it is home from home, which is fantastic.

The accommodation was fantastic. We thoroughly enjoyed our second visit to Whitby and will be back again soon with yourselves.

The cottage was excellent; better than many hotels I have stayed in! The weather was poor and it was wonderful to have such an incredible place to stay. We came into contact with six staff and they were very professional and helpful. Thank you for making our holiday wonderful.

This was our second visit to Caedmon House and we love it; it is in a great location with fabulous views.

We have had another excellent holiday in a Shoreline cottage. The extra touches with Shoreline make all the difference: the cottages are spotlessly clean, the tea/coffee/milk are great for when you arrive and the helpful staff in Whitby were great.

Our fourth holiday with Shoreline and our second in St Hilda's which is perfect for us; the location is ideal and the house big enough for us to have our own space when we need it. Thanks to Billy and the staff in your office for enabling us to have another wonderful week.

Can't really fault Shoreline and we will definitely use you again for a weekend break; good value for money.

Whitby is where I went on holiday as a child and I just love coming back from time to time to see it and enjoy looking at it all over again. As time has gone by Whitby, for me, is just as magical as it was all those years ago, just busier, but that doesn't detract from the enjoyment. The fish suppers are the best you can get anywhere and the queue at the Magpie seems to get bigger! We had a great time.

Abbey View is so well situated for everything; we didn't need to use the car as everything is at hand. The cottage is both beautiful and practical and is a real hidden gem. I shall tell everyone it is owned by Shoreline Cottages because all our friends love Whitby but hate the lack of parking and lack of access to amenities and this cottage solves both problems at the least.

St Hilda's was wonderful, equipped with the best, furnished with pride, and very welcoming. We were sorry to leave. Thank you for a splendid experience.

We loved our location overlooking the river - which was what we were expecting; but then we got the bonus of the steam trains opposite and really enjoyed relaxing and watching them shunting in and out to change the engine round. We didn't expect there to be too much to do for 5 days, but there was plenty and more to come back for!

Thanks for all your help and for looking after us (and our boys) so well. We had a great time and will definitely come back at some point.

The Old Sail Loft was a delightful holiday home - we had a really good time, found the location great and loved the views from the apartment. Billy was excellent. Thank you all so much for your attention to detail. We will certainly consider using Shoreline in the future if we come back to the North East and will have no hesitation in recommending your company.

The cottage was immaculate, as always with Shoreline, and all the staff charming, courteous and extremely helpful. Thank you for a lovely holiday!

First class accommodation; we would definitely return.

The cottage was perfectly located for our holiday; it was well equipped, clean and comfortable and we had a wonderful stay there.

We had a really lovely few days in Whitby - despite the fairly poor weather. We were very impressed with the cottage's closeness to the amenities and attractions we valued. We are very pleased to have discovered Whitby and Shoreline; many thanks.

This is a lovely cottage with a very good service indeed. The cottage was very well equipped and the milk and wine are a lovely idea!

A huge thank you for making our stay just perfect! The little things like providing milk and wine gave that extra special touch and were very much appreciated!

From beginning to end, my experience of Shoreline was very good. A particular thanks to Billy and Julia for all their help when arriving and for the extra car parking spaces they were able to give our group. They couldn't have done more! The cottage was perfect, full of character and perfectly situated. We will definitely use Shoreline again.

The service and standard that you have provided is second to none. Within 10 minutes of arriving and sitting down with a cup of tea, the cottage had already had an effect on us all. I feel this is down to yourselves: the design and upkeep from both the outside and the inside make you feel at ease. This is our first outing at a cottage and an experience I look forward to doing again. I wish you ongoing success with your business and once again thank you for a weekend we will remember.

Captain's Quarters was a fantastic cottage with exceptional views and this helped us to have a wonderful 20th Wedding Anniversary; thanks a lot, Shoreline.

Excellent standard all round - as usual!

We have returned to Turnerdale this holiday having been there in February. This is not something we would normally do but we loved the house and the location, backed up by help from Billy when needed.

Another lovely property! We had a superb weekend and are looking forward to the next one.

We really enjoyed our stay in Caedmon House. The cottage was well equipped and spotless. Billy was very helpful. In general - we loved Sandsend, loved the cottage and I like to think we'll be back. The reservation process over the phone with Sue was great - she was more than helpful.

We had a most enjoyable stay. The weather was more like Christmas than Easter but the apartment was lovely and warm. We are looking forward to our next visit.

Absolutely lovely cottage in a great location. The arrivals procedure, of meeting us and taking us to our cottage, fronted by Billy, totally exceeded my expectations and, as the weather was particuarly bad on Good Friday, this was very much appreciated!

We were really happy with the service from Shoreline and had a very enjoyable short break.

Excellent - keep up the good work!

The cottage was clean, lovely and in an ideal spot. It suited our purposes and I have already shown and recommended it to the families we met up with.

The whole procedure was simple. Your manager in Whitby was extremely helpful and we found everything first class.

The net curtains in the bedroom made a big difference. A warm and friendly greeting from Billy, who is always willing to help. And, as always, easy booking with Sue. See you again soon; thank you.

This is my second visit to Quayside so I knew exactly what to expect - warmth, comfort, perfect peace and a fantastic location. The cottage is just perfect and the Shoreline staff are friendly and helpful. I will be back; many thanks.

We had a lovely time and the cottage was fab.

We really loved the Old Sail Loft - fantastic views and extremely comfortable and clean accommodation. We will definitely be returning; thank you!

Brilliant, accommodating staff who helped us out after a mishap with our transport. A lovely cottage with everything we needed and a better range of kitchen equipment than I have at home, which was a delight to my partner as he is a chef!

We really enjoyed our stay. The extra touches, such as a bottle of wine and the lighting and music on when we arrived quite late were much appreciated. Your accommodation is superior to what we have experienced in the past with holiday cottages, particularly with short breaks. We will definitely return to Shoreline and make recommendations to all.

The cottage was fantastic with excellent facilities.

My boyfriend and I really enjoyed our first holiday together in Whitby and are glad that we went with Shoreline. The cottage was fantastic and suited our needs. We were sad to leave and will surely return in the future; thanks a lot.

We are a regular Shoreline client and have been guilty in the past of not considering Abbey View Cottage - what a mistake! It is ideally located in Whitby, its quaintness is charming, That, combined with the exceptional customer service provided by the Shoreline team, makes it a firm favourite to revisit in the not too distant future.

We love this house and will be back again!!

We had a wonderful, relaxing time in splendid surroundings; the view was just fascinating. Many thanks to all concerned, especially Billy who maintains the traditional Shoreline warm welcome that we love so much.

We thoroughly enjoyed our brief stay and will definitely return to the same cottage; thank you.

Billy was great; wine on arrival and music! Lovely things kept on happening right up to departure like feeding the seagulls from the 'balcony"; it was an unforgettable holiday.

Thank you for making our stay in Whitby special; it was ideal for the family to celebrate a 30th birthday.

We had a wonderful time and my family were bowled over by the charm, decor and location of the cottage. We will most definitely return to a Shoreline cottage; thanks!

Loved the toiletries and the milk and red wine, plus the sugar, tea, coffee and biscuits to tide us over; thought that was a very lovely idea. Felt the cottage was extremely well equipped with books, games, deckchairs even and the torch came in extremely handy. It was brilliant and we are definitely coming back.

What more can we say - lovely cottage, great staff and what a beautiful place Whitby is; thank you!

Our short family holiday at St Hilda's in Whitby was absolutely superb! The accommodation was truly excellent and the facilities were brilliant. All contacts made with Shoreline staff at Leeds and personally in Whitby were exceptionally polite and helpful on every occasion! THANK YOU VERY MUCH INDEED!

We have stayed at various Shoreline cottages and have found them all to be of a very high standard. Booking on the internet was very straightforward and Billy (and colleagues) were really friendly and helpful beforehand and while we were there! We have recommended Shoreline Cottages to family and friends.

We really enjoyed the cottage and will stay with you again.

We had a wonderful weekend; it was perfect. After a real week from hell at work, Shoreline saved the day. You even arranged nice sunny weather so we could walk along the beach to Sandsend on Saturday. Fab fab fab, thank you.

We all loved the house; it was very comfortable and we loved the view across the park to the moors.

Loved the house - it is definitely everybody's favourite now and we can't wait to go back. Billy was as friendly and helpful as ever.

As usual, we have had another amazing holiday. Good friends, an awesome cottage in a great location and plenty of wine! Just the way to unwind before the Christmas rush; thanks.

This property is really well located and has super views over the river. Fantastic addition to the already superb Shoreline Cottages list of properties.

We have had a few family breaks in Whitby and really enjoyed staying with Shoreline Cottages as much as Whitby itself. We look forward to our next stay. You have very nice cottages complemented with very pleasant service; thank you.

Fantastic service and a fantastic cottage. Very professional and helpful. Will definitely be back next year; thank you!!

Thanks very much; had a great time (our third visit) and felt well looked after throughout the booking, stay, etc. It was lovely to arrive in the dead of night to find lights and heating on, music playing gently and a bottle of wine waiting... so thoughtful! Loved the house!

My expectations are already pretty high, given that I have stayed with you before, and so now I have a high expectation as a norm. I think your cottages and service are great and always recommend you to people when they say they are thinking of taking a break in Yorkshire.

Billy was terrific, so friendly and helpful and a superb ambassador for your company. The house was beautiful, very comfortable and all linen fresh and welcoming. A wonderful weekend, Shoreline, thank you.

We had a lovely stay. The cottage was lovely and your staff were very friendly and helpful. The cottage was excellently equipped and the little touches such as tea, coffee, biscuits, milk, etc make all the difference. We would definitely recommend your cottages to others.

A beautifully designed and equipped cottage with all the little touches that are so often absent in other cottages. We will definitely be back.

Sorrel Cottage is absolutely gorgeous; none of us wanted to come home. It truly was welcoming from the first glimpse as we pulled into the driveway, and once inside we all fell in love with it. Billy was very efficient, and a real asset to the company, judging by our experience of him and other people's comments in the visitors book.

Whitby is made for the perfect family break. Our teenage daughters enjoyed the town and together we enjoyed exploring the surrounding countryside.

I was very impressed with the company and the standard of the cottage; thank you for a lovely weekend.

We had a wonderful time; the house was lovely and Sandsend is very peaceful. It was so nice to have sea views.

A brilliant cottage, location and holiday; thanks very much.

Thank you for a very comfortable stay in a lovely, beautifully appointed and well equipped spacious home. Shoreline staff have been extremely helpful and friendly from beginning to end.

We were a varied group in relation to age, needs and likes but the cottage met all our expectations. It was spacious, comfortable and a real home away from home.

A nice apartment in a good location; we look forward to seeing others.

Only the curiosity of seeing other cottages would stop me booking this one again! It really was very good; thank you.

We are regular visitors to Whitby and, once again, Shoreline has impressed us as a family with its high quality accommodation.

As a first time of customer of Shoreline, I was very impressed and will be returning for another booking in the future.

A very efficient and smooth holiday, from the time of booking to arrival and then departure from the cottage. I found your staff on site extremely helpful, friendly and accommodating. I am delighted with the service, the cottage and Shoreline in general; thank you.

A very enjoyable break. The cottage was truly home from home. Keep up the good work!

This is our 8th holiday with Shoreline and we hope to have many more. The weather even in November was wonderful. Also many thanks to Billy and Julia who make sure everything is OK. Fantastic holiday in Whitby once again.

Loved Spring Vale Cottage - just right for the two of us. A really cosy cottage - especially on a cold and windy Sunday afternoon.

I went to Sorrel with my old school friends last year and loved it so much we had to book it again this year. We had a great time and loved the cottage; all agreed it was like coming home. Hope to be back again soon; many thanks.

Billy was excellent! It was great to be met and shown to the cottage; what a good system. A lovely, comfortable, well appointed cottage; great for the beach and the town.

Caedmon House was excellent. Your staff are extremely helpful - nothing is too much trouble. We will definitely see you again.

Your service is second to none, from the booking and following administration through to the support of your on-site team. I will most certainly recommend you to my friends and relatives.

For a last minute holiday, booked on the day of arrival, everything was increadibly easy and well organised. Many thanks!

The Riverside Apartment was ideal for us; it was very comfortable and spacious. We had a lovely, restful break and hope to return next year some time.

We really enjoyed our break and first time with Shoreline - it won't be the last!

This was our first holiday with Shoreline. It was only a short break but we enjoyed our stay at Caedmon House so much we can't wait to go back. We wish we had found Shoreline earlier!

The cottage was superb and exactly as depicted in the brochure (I was prepared for disappointment!). The garden in particular was great for morning tea and evening wine! The location was excellent, close enough to reach all facilities, but away from the traffic nightmare of the town centre. We had a great time and look forward to staying in a Shoreline cottage again.

Our second stay at Sorrel was even better than the first time. It's such a brilliant location for children, with a lovely safe garden. Thank you for a lovely holiday; I'm sure you will be seeing us again.

This is the first time we have stayed in the centre of Whitby, although we have visited the area many times before, usually staying in the surrounding countryside. We enjoyed having all the facilities on the doorstep and the views from the windows of the cottage were superb. The cottage itself was excellent and we would definitely like to come back.

The location and the cottage were perfect for our needs with young children and a dog!

Everything was wonderful and we would definitely book again with Shoreline. The staff were wonderful from the time of booking to the time of arrival. Shoreline Cottages offer a high standard of accommodation which is a pleasure to find in the UK.

Shoreline's cottages are consistent and you can rely on them to be as described in the brochure. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful and this exceeds the standards set by other companies; thank you.

We love Shoreline Cottages. However, this house exceeded our expectations, and we already hold the quality of Shoreline accommodation with high regard. The word to describe St Hilda's is luxury - Shoreline Cottages move from strength to strength!

We had a fantastic time and St Joseph's was probably the best cottage we have ever stayed in.

The location and quality of Captain's Quarters absolutely made our trip to Whitby. Shoreline is one of the best-run, high quality cottage companies we've found in our travels.

We were all very impressed by the cottage: it was clean, well furnished and provided everything we needed. We were given a very friendly welcome; you obviously have a very good team working together at Shoreline.

The cottage was very well equipped and having so many things provided made life much easier in terms of packing. Overall, the cottage and service provided greatly exceeded our already high expectations.

Everything about the accommodation and location was unbelievably wonderful; it far exceeded our expectations!

Sorrel Cottage was absolutely perfect for us. The house is very impressive and the enclosed garden is ideal for dogs and children.

We were delighted with the cottage and service received. For years we've wanted to stay in that part of Whitby and it certainly lived up to our expectations!

From our first contact with Shoreline, we knew we had made the right choice! We have decided to make this an annual trip and are coming back with the whole family next year.

By far the best holiday rental I have experienced. The standard of decoration, furnishing and equipment made our stay "home from home".

The cottage was better than we expected and we expected a lot! Not only will we be back, but so will our family and friends - we fancy Captain's Quarters next!

A lovely cottge with well thought out decor and equipment - just like our own mini-hotel!

The cottage made an excellent base for a short break in Whitby. A high quality service - from receiving your brochure to arriving back home!

We had high expectations of the cottage and were not in the least disappointed. Every aspect of our stay was enjoyable; the cottage had wonderful character and we will definitely return in the near future.

We were thrilled with our welcome to Whitby; the cottage was warm and comfortable and we had a wonderful holiday.

We had a wonderfully relaxing stay in a "home from home" cottage in a perfect location. Our little girl loved the cottage and beach at Sandsend.

The service you offer is excellent. Please can you renovate cottages in other areas of Great Britain!

We had a wonderful, relaxing holiday and hope to come again next year. The staff were excellent and very friendly; it was a great experience.

St Hilda's has spoilt us for anything else! The kitchen is incredible and the location, so close to town, was ideal.

The cottage was fantastic and the standard of everything unbelievable. Will definitely book again and recommend to others.

Couldn't fault a thing; we will be back next year.

This was a special trip and we were thrilled by the house and how well we were looked after - from the booking to returning home.

We enjoyed the friendly, personal touch of Billy and Julia and your excellent shopping service.

Our second time at Sorrel and it won't be the last! A beautiful cottage in an ideal location; Sorrel has that something special.

We all had a wonderful time. The cottage was lovely and our eldest loved the bedroom at the top of the house.

It is good to see that Shoreline make a better effort than most to give their cottages the edge.

Riverside is a most spacious, ideally located apartment.

It was lovely to arrive at the cottage and for everything to be clean; everything was above standard.

This is our second visit to West End and we loved it as much as our last visit. Thanks for a lovely location to stay.

I particularly like Seagull for the fact that within five minutes you are in the centre of Whitby but yet are far enough out to be peaceful.

I had a fabulous break and will definitely stay with Shoreline again. The cottage was spotless and in the perfect location.

Absolutely wonderful - you clearly have a good understanding of your customers' needs.

Everything was excellent, including the weather. We have stayed with Shoreline for the last five years and have already booked for next year.

From our first experience, Shoreline appear to offer a good, reliable standard of accommodation.

A lovely, cosy bolthole - perfect for a weekend escape. I wish I had a kitchen like the one in Cuddy Cottage.

We love coming to Quayside Cottage. It is everything we need for a relaxing holiday.

We were very impressed with St Joseph's facilities, location, equipment and garden.

We had a wonderful holiday with lots of memories to take home. Everyone loved the cottage and its surroundings, including the great views.

Our favourite Shoreline cottage to-date. The accommodation, combined with venue and aspect, are wonderful. It was ideal for our children and spacious enough to relax.

Bakehouse Cottage was fantastic; so clean, well equipped and warm, with loads of hot water.

An excellent place to stay; just like home with all its comforts. It makes a brilliant base for the Moors and the seaside.

A lot of thought has definitely gone into the design and decoration of the cottage. Sorrel is ideal for parties, including children and the elderly, because of the garden and the shop/farm next door.

The standard of the accommodation was first rate and helped us to have a better weekend than we had anticipated. We shall be using Shoreline again for future trips to Whitby.

We are increasingly amazed by the standard and quality that Shoreline offer. Thank you to everyone.

We all thought the cottage was excellent. It had all amenities, a great location and was clean and comfortable.

A lovely cottage and very helpful staff; we had a great holiday.

This was our third stay in the cottage; it's definitely home from home.

Little touches, such as a spare tape for the video player and games for the family to play, made all the difference.

Kiln Cottage was exceptional and in a fantastic location: central, yet quiet and close to everything. We certainly recommend friends to stay with Shoreline.

We had a wonderful break. The bed was the best ever and the wooden furniture was substantial and just right for the seaside.

Harlow Cottage was such a pleasure to use for five days and in the most perfect location. We're already looking forward to our next short break.

It was lovely to stay somewhere so tastefully and thoughtfully decorated and I would rate this as the best self-catering accommodation I have ever stayed in.

We had a lovely week in your apartment. Quayside definitely has the best location in Whitby!

A fantastic cottage - the best we've ever stayed in and we've been to many over the years!

Perfection is often equalled but not surpassed. The apartment was perfect; thank you.

Really comfortable and well equipped - thank you.

My children enjoyed staying close to the ice cream shop! What a lovely house - well done Shoreline for another success.

Bakehouse is brilliant. The best cottage I've ever stayed in.

Quayside was a first class cottage. We will definitely return for another romantic break next year.
