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.

The whole apartment was impeccable. High end finishes, smelt divine on arrival<br/><br/>There was no key in the key safe. Bit the cleaners turned up with a spare set
16/08/2024
Fantastic property, clean and very comfortable, great location.<br/><br/>Can't fault the property
14/08/2024
It is so well equipped, cosy, beautiful and feels like a home from home.<br/><br/>I liked it all. It was a bit hard to find which house it was at first. A photo on the website would help there.
14/08/2024
I have nothing negative to say about this property! It was easy to find and access and the free car parking space is only a few metres from the gate. The apartment was spotlessly clean and beautiful inside and there was plenty of room for us three adults and two children. The big green sofa and beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. The property was only a six minute walk to Whitby train station therefore it was perfectly situated. We would definitely return to this accommodation.
09/08/2024
The accommodation was spacious clean well maintained and central to Whitby.<br/><br/>On arrival at 4.00pm after spending a lovely day in Whitby we couldn't gain access to our accommodation. <br/>This was extremely stressful having 3 teenagers who just wanted to relax and 2 parents trying to gain access. <br/>We tried all ways to contact booking. Com or the hosts with no luck. <br/>Eventually after a long while we were contacted with the access code and our stay began to the relief of us parents. <br/>It didn't ruin our stay but it wasn't a great start.

Lovely comfortable apartment. The location was good. The allocated parking place was very welcome although a bit tight with a large car.
25/06/2024
Property is awesome. Great facilities.<br/><br/>After booking through Booking.com, recieved a message from Host & Stay about a damage waiver, they stung me an extra £30 and wouldn’t release the lockbox code until I paid.
25/06/2024
comfortable and spacious<br/><br/>I didn't expect to pay the house insurance
17/06/2024
Beds comfy, lovely apartment with high ceilings. Lots of equipment in the kitchen. Welcome bottle very welcome!!<br/><br/>Didn’t like that I had to complete a damage waiver before the code was given.

The Old Chapel is a wonderful property set in a lovely if busy town. The property was very well kept, very clean and with all the amenities that you need. We chose specifically because everything was on one floor which proved invaluable. The en suite and main bathroom were spotless, as was the rest of the property. The heating was easy to use, as were the rest of the appliances. Subtle instructions around the property meant that you were not second guessing anything. The bonus of on site parking was a definite advantage. Instructions received before we arrived were really clear, and we accessed the property without any issues. We enjoyed Whitby, however, Runswick Bay and Robin Hood's bay are most certainly worth a visit. We would highly recommend this property.

Very comfortable, convenient and well fitted out flat<br/><br/>Host and stay policy to charge for returning deposit or offer insurance instead. That wasn't apparent before booking and seems like a money making scheme. Very off-putting and a shame for the owner who has created a lovely place to stay.

Beautiful place, looks stunning, comfortable, clean, good size, parking for one vehicle, walking distance to town.<br/><br/>It wasn't clear that the second vehicle would be parked on the street, would have preferred a washer/dryer rather than just a washing machine. Walk into town is steep.

Really spacious and well-appointed property. We liked the fact it was all on one level as we were all taking part in an ultra marathon during our stay and weren’t sure we’d be able to manage stairs after that! On-street parking available at no cost, plus a reserved space.<br/><br/>After I’d paid for the booking in full, I was required to put down an accidental damage deposit. Whilst I had no real issue with this (despite never having had to pay one before), it was the fact that I also had to pay a £10 admin fee for the privilege of the landlord’s agents handling £250 of my money (taking it, and repaying it). A nice little earner for Host & Stay who apparently have 600 properties that they advertise via Booking.com! I objected to this but was told it was mandatory and couldn’t be waived. It definitely left a bitter taste as this was not listed in the advertisement nor the booking details.

We had a lovely stay at this spacious, well equipped flat - really handy for central Whitby and was actually larger than it appeared in the photos. Also has parking, which is a bonus in Whitby!

Beds comfortable, bed linen good quality. Shower seat a great extra when travelling with elderly.<br/><br/>The location appearance worries us but was quiet and no issues
01/10/2023
Fabulous decor and well looked after and comfortable. I’m in the building trade and work on high end properties so I have an eye detail. Will stay again.<br/><br/>I’m have no complaining about anything.

Great venue, lovely greeting pack<br/><br/>The apartment above was unoccupied during our stay, but the parking space for it was locked off ,as we had 3 cars would have been useful to have had access to it

Nice and spacious property for a family. Washing facilities.<br/><br/>No garden area. No bath for children. Bathroom could have been cleaner as hairs left from previous guests.
23/07/2023
Lovely apartment, we all enjoyed our stay here, big space and everything you need for a nice weekend away. Not far from town centre which is helpful.
08/07/2023
The accommodation was 'home-from-homw' and had everything you needed. It's also only about a 10 minute walk from the middle of Whitby.<br/><br/>Only small issue was that they don't supply shower gel and shampoo that are normally included elsewhere. However, only minor and you can bring your own now you know.
02/07/2023
Beautiful apartment, very clean and comfortable. Well equipped and spacious. 5 minute walk into whitby Harbour (though steep incline for anyone with mobility issues)
15/06/2023
It was clean comfortable and spacious, excellent location great to spend time in the evenings with family would highly recommend<br/><br/>I liked everything
03/06/2023
The apartment is superb, very nicely furnished and bags of space. The location is superb, just a 5 min walk to the river and a further 10 mins to the beach. Welcome pack on arrival. Would definitely stay here again.<br/><br/>Nothing!
31/05/2023
location was great, good parking. flat is spacious and well equipped<br/><br/>bathroom smelt a bit strange. would have been handy to have shower gel/shampoo in bathrooms. check out of 10am is too early considering checkin is 4pm

The accommodation was spacious, well equipped with an interesting selection of books, dvd's and games. The welcome pack was very good and well thought out. The location was good, only a few minutes walk into town. Couldn't fault it.<br/><br/>Loved it!
23/04/2023
Well equipped, clean, comfortable and close enough to all amenities.<br/><br/>4pm check in is a little late.
10/04/2023
This truly was a home from home for us. The apartment is really well equipped. The kitchen has everything you need to cook if you need/want to, there are books and games for entertainment, free WiFi and plenty of TV channels. The location was fantastic, just a few minutes walk into Whitby. We didn't use our car at all whilst staying here.<br/><br/>This is difficult to answer, as we really had a fabulous time here. If I had to pick on something, it would be the lack of absorbency in the bath towels.
09/04/2023
Accommodation was lovely and better than expected. We were two families of three and there was more than enough room for us all. Very relaxing and felt right at home, I did say on many occasions that I could live there. There was everything you’d need and even the small things such as hot chocolate, coffee and tea which was a lovely touch. There is a Lidl or a Co-op as well as an Original Factory Shop for the person who forgot their pyjamas. Going to bed was the best as the beds are so comfortable and linen was fresh and clean. I had various questions and they were answered very quickly and also clearly. The only problem I think we had was parking the second car as there wasn’t any on street parking available but this was Easter weekend. Overall we’d visit again and this would be a first choice for accommodation.
26/03/2023
Very well furnished, everything you could need, plenty of space, well maintained. Home from Home, even a welcome pack.<br/><br/>The location is not liked by Sat Nav’s (2 travelling separately, with similar issues. The regimented ongoing prolonged booking progress, being feared into damage Insurance, caused me paranoia whilst there, probably why it is so clean and tidy.
25/03/2023
Great place to stay. The accommodation was very clean modern and extremely well equipped having everything you needed for a wonderful holiday. Cannot praise it enough.
15/02/2023
From initial booking communication with Host and Stay was great. On arrival we were impressed with the layout of the Chapel , it was bigger than the pictures indicated . As we were travelling with my 70 year old parents - the no steps one level was perfect . We loved the comfy sofas , powerful showers and how well equipped the kitchen was was cooking up full meals from scratch . The location worked for us as it was really quiet but just a 5 minute stroll down hill to the swing bridge . <br/>Having a parking space was a huge bonus as we were able to leave the car during our whole stay .
16/01/2023
Lovely comfortable apartment, kitchen fully equipped. Great place for a long or short stay. Would definitely stay again.<br/><br/>The heating... set too cold...
28/12/2022

location was great, and overall accommodation was good.<br/><br/>The toilet seat was hanging off in the main bathroom, and wasn,t dealt with during our stay. <br/>The oven and grill were not very clean inside, (baked on grease), the temperature numbers were rubbed off, it could do with renewing in my opinion, we didn't use it because of this.I took a cushion off the sofa to plump it up and found popcorn and other crumbs underneath.General things that the cleaner should notice.
20/09/2022

We had a fantastic family weekend away at the Old Chapel! It is beautifully decorated and well equipped, comfortably accommodating six adults. The location was perfect for exploring Whitby on foot, so everyone could enjoy a drink in one of the many local pubs - we particularly enjoyed our visit to Whitby Brewery. <br/>Prompt communications from the host made booking and checking-in easy. Would highly recommend ?
16/06/2022
We have had such a lovely stay in The Old Chapel. An excellent location in a quiet spot, yet not too far from town. The parking space was a real bonus too. Check in was very easy, and communication with the the hosts was great. The Chapel is beautifully decorated and so well equipped, you couldn't ask for much more really. We can't wait to come back, thanks so much!
