Excellent location in the heart of Whitby, the property was very clean and well-equipped. The bed was comfortable, as was the sitting area. The only thing missing was wifi, which we think should be pretty standard these days. We would certainly consider booking this property again next time we are in the area.

Great, good value for money apartment split over 3 floors. Centrally located, makes a good base for Whitby and surrounding area. In easy walking distance of pubs, shops, cafes, park & harbour.

The property is billed as luxury holiday accommodation but, to be honest, it felt like we had borrowed someone's house. There were personal belongings everywhere, there wasn't a single shelf for food to be stored, bedding was bleached and stained, and bathroom towels were literally falling apart at the seams. It is a shame because we loved the locaRead moretion, views and living room but too many short cuts had been taken. Oh, and why are parking scratch cards only provided for 4 days when we stayed 7?
