Join friends and family in this elegant home in the centre of Whitby. The town’s pubs and eateries are on your doorstep, and you’ll be just 1 mile from the sandy beach. Take day trips to Robin Hood’s Bay and Staithes, or head inland to hike through the North York Moors National Park. In the evenings, enjoy dinner parties in the exquisite lounge/diner, followed by a soak in the free-standing bath.
Stairs lead to this fantastic apartment, which is bursting with character and original features. The striking, wood-panelled lounge/diner makes a beautiful backdrop to family gatherings and celebrations with friends, with a central table to seat everyone and a choice of comfortable seating. A stylish, shaker-style kitchen completes this level. Stairs lead to the next floor, where you’ll find two bedrooms – a double and a twin – both with en-suite shower rooms. A further flight of stairs takes you to the magnificent king-size bedroom in the eaves, along with a bathroom with a free-standing bath. There is no outside space, but the central location offers plenty of intriguing walks directly from the property.
Wander out of your front door to explore Whitby’s cobbled streets, dotted with galleries, gift shops, and eateries. The bustling harbour is a great place for wildlife watching (dolphins and seals are regularly spotted off the shore) and you can also hop on a boat trip to go whale watching. The exhilarating climb of the 199 steps is a must during your stay – at the top you’ll find the iconic Whitby Abbey, plus spectacular views across the town and out to sea. Keen walkers can stride out along the coast path to the smugglers’ haunt of Robin Hood’s Bay (6 miles), or you can join The Cinder Track to explore the coast on two wheels.
