The owner is very helpful and responsive if needed. The accommodation is very well equipped, clean and in a quiet location. Having a parking space is most helpful, as is having a lift. You can see right across to the Abby and you have a bird's eye view of the golf course. It is almost on the sea front. You can see the the sea from both the fRead moreront and side window of the living space. This was not our first visit and hopefully it won't be our last. Hide

We absolutely loved our week in the apartment. We used it as a base for walking the Cleveland Way, it was a really comfortable place to return to and relax. The welcome pack was really lovely. The owners obviously take pride in the property and have thought of everything.

Our second stay in this very lovely apartment. It is very well equipped and clean. The view over the town straight across to the Abby is amazing. It is away from the centre of Whitby which makes it a lovely quiet place to stay. A very short wall to the sea. If we get the chance we will definitely stay her again and recommend to other seasidRead moree lovers. Hide

The location of the comfortable cozy and well furnished apartment is great. Its within easy walking distance of town with its individual shops and restaurants, and also along the beach to Sandsend. The huge TV was a treat on an evening. The apartment also provided books, guides games and DVDs. The kitchen was provided with plenty of cutlery crockerRead morey and equipment and there was a lovely welcome pack. We were also able to find the apartment and gain entrance easily.

A lovely place to spend a relaxing week. The sun shone and I was able to use the balcony. The views were super and the apartment is extremely well equiped. The walk back up the hill from the centre of town was a bit much for my knee but the hop on /off tourist bus stops at the end of the road which was very useful.

We recently stayed at this charming penthouse holiday flat in Whitby that offered stunning views of both the sea and the Abbey. The location was perfect just a short walk from the beach and 10 minutes from the town centre. The flat itself was light, airy and well-equipped, with a comfortable seating area where we could relax and take in the scenerRead morey through the large windows. Overall, it was a delightful stay, ideal for anyone looking to unwind by the coast. Dedicated parking was also a bonus. Hide

A lovely, spacious apartment in a great location just a stones throw from the sea front. It has bifold doors with a Juliette balcony and super comfy chairs to enjoy the view right across to the Abbey. Also there's an actual balcony with chairs and table and a great sea view that added to our enjoyment. Even the bedroom had a great view. The apartmeRead morent was super well equipped with a nice welcome package to greet us on arrival. The sea front was lovely with lots of places to sit and eat ice cream. A short walk takes you to the Whalebone Arch where you can get down, via steps, to what I'd call 'the busy side' of Whitby. Neither of us can walk too far these days but every day we were able to go this way and along to the bridge which takes you across to the great little shops on Church Street selling Whitby Jet and other nice things. The 199 steps to the Abbey are also found here, if you have the ability to tackle them. All in all this was the perfect base for what was a really lovely holiday. Hide
