Description
Adventure House is a splendid, stylish five bedroom holiday home that sleeps ten guests, laid out generously over four floors in central Whitby. Boasting two reception rooms, four bathrooms, and private off-road parking for four cars, this is the ideal choice for those wanting a laid back luxurious break away.
Inside, there is plenty of character and a wonderful homely feel, with period features such as huge bay windows and stunning feature fireplaces throughout. On the ground floor the kitchen is very well equipped, with everything guests could need including dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer, plus all the kitchenware to whip up your favourite holiday cuisine. There is a separate dining room, with a table to comfortably seat ten, with the capability to extend if needed, and a highchair available if required. The main living room has a beautiful bay window letting the light flood in, a decorative fireplace and luxurious leather sofas to sink into - perfect for relaxing in-front of the television after a long day of adventures.
The first floor has two bedrooms, one with a super king size bed and ensuite with jacuzzi bath and shower over. The second bedroom on this floor has a king sized bed and can make use of the main bathroom, situated on a half landing between the ground and first floor. The main family bathroom, which is beautifully styled, boasts a freestanding roll-top bath in the centre of the room, and a separate shower enclosure.
On the second floor, there is a second reception room with lots of books, jigsaws, games and a second television and DVD player - an ideal family or games room for older children to have their own space. There is also another bright and airy bedroom at this level, with a super king size bed and en-suite bathroom with a bath and shower over.
Up to the third floor, there is a further double bedroom, and twin bedroom, with another bathroom with bath and shower over.
Outside, there is a rear enclosed patio area with small bistro table and chairs, space to store all your beach equipment, and steps up to the access road behind. To the rear of the property there are also four private parking spaces belonging to the house, which means you can come and go in the car at your leisure without worrying about parking again at the end of the day.
To the rear of the car parking area there is an enclosed gravelled garden with large shed suitable for storing bikes (please contact Finest Retreats in advance to arrange access during your stay).
Locally, Whitby offers everything you need for a great break away, although if you prefer to adventure a little further afield, there is some stunning coastline and landscapes to be explored in the surrounding area.
Along the coast, there is Sandsend Beach, Kettleness Beach and the picturesque Runswick Bay. If you venture further inland there is the North York Moors National Park to discover, offering incredible hiking, cycling or rambling.
Book easily online through the Finest Retreats website, and start looking forward to your next seaside getaway.

House decor was ok and kitchen well stocked - bedrooms tidy with comfortable beds - very clean and tidy . Only small negative was with the keys which was very confusing as one set for front door and one set for back door - but not marked up - the locks were also very stiff . I think that the owner should review keys and make up 4 x complete set . Willing to bet that people get locked out on a regular basis otherwise ! But overall a great stay - would definitely stay at this property again !

Couple of points we’d like to raise. The heating didn’t reach the top two floors, and a cracked toilet seat was promptly repaired. Issues were dealt with quickly and did not spoil our stay in any way and we would certainly recommend Adventure House. see more

A proper cot would have been good for 9 month baby. Noisy water flow and toilet flushing system was annoying.

An extra set of front door keys. Because we were a group of friends and not all going to the same event and were coming back at different times, we really could have done with another set at least.

A few things in the guest book that still hadn't been sorted su h as fridge light and faulty oven rack supports. The biggest improvement that could be made is the overall cleanliness, some of the areas obviously hadn't been cleaned for a long time due to the tackiness of carpets, skirting boards, doors etc, this is the only real complaint but could be easily remedied by more vigilant hand over cleans and perhaps 6 monthly deep cleans.

Lovely big old house for a family gathering, lovely fresh white linen and towels, beds really comfy, good selection of crockery, We didn't cook during our stay, so can't comment the ovens etc., Large sitting room and dining room, loved the 2nd sitting room on 2nd floor, really handy for families with children to have a second sitting room with a tv, or just to watch a different programme on the TV, could hardly hear any noise transference through the floors, good if you have small children in bed early.
Lovely big bathroom on the half landing up from the ground floor. Lovely roll top bath too. V close to the town, 10 minutes max walking down with a young child, a bit of a climb back up to the house, but this is Whitby after all, that's what we love about it. Pannett Park was great, lovely play area for children, and lovely to walk round, shame they don't allow dogs, although there is a small area at the n/east side of the park that is dog friendly. We would definitely stay again. Finally 'Finest Retreats' have been great, when I've had any queries, quick response and v friendly and helpful. Thank you. |

Not a lot, Back yard needed a good sweep, which walks into the house, makes it a lot nicer stay when clean, we cleaned this area ourselves just to freshen it up a bit. I doubt v much that this is covered by the cleaning of the property, but the fact that it gets walked into the house won't help the cleaning team.
We only used the back door to access the property so can't comment on the front access. It would also be handy to have some basic cleaning products in the house, especially when you rent the property for a week, it's a big house with lots of space, would be nice to be able to clean if you want to, or is that just me! A bit of a musty smell in the hallway, near the back door into kitchen i guess when it's raining a lot of water from the back yard walks in on everyones shoes which doesn't help. Yes the stairs to the top floor could be a problem for older people, but guests are made aware, and there's plenty of space and light on the stairs. You rent a property with 3 upper floors, you expect to climb stairs to get to the top. You are made aware of the possible lack of heated water for showers so this isn't a problem, just don't all try and shower/bath at the same time. |

The accommodation was very well equipped and extremely spacious. The bonus was definitely four bathrooms. The decor was in keeping with the property and there were lots of objects around to make the place look homely. There were nine of us in the property, including 3 children and it was ideal. I would certainly recommend this house for a stay in Whitby.

Just as a minor point, although there was a vacuum cleaner in the property, it would have been very helpful to have a dustpan and brush and a broom as extras.
