An airy mezzanine apartment with a breezy outdoor space, ideally situated in the traditional seaside town of Whitby. This tastefully appointed abode is the perfect romantic escape by the sea for couples and their furry-pawed companions. Delve into a fresh al fresco spread on the raised wooden deck, then grab a flask and hike beneath the twinkling night sky as you tackle the stone steps leading to St Mary's Church (1 mile).
This sophisticated property exudes traditional elegance with a striking arched window, intricate cornicing, crisp neutral tones, and nautical detailing. Towel off sandy paws and hang windbreakers in the hallway before being lulled into the light-flooded living space. Rustle up a post-adventure snack in the cream shaker kitchen then gather at the dining table as you plan out the perfect Whitby itinerary. Peruse the bookshelf for an easy holiday read then stretch out on the plush sofas. On cooler nights, turn up the wood burner effect electric fire and snuggle beneath the soft throws with a movie. As night falls, retire upstairs to the mezzanine level double bedroom styled in coordinated eggshell blue hues. Draw the drapes to create a cosy sleeping nook then enjoy elevated views when morning comes. In summer months, inhale the salty ocean air as you perch on the bistro chairs with a morning coffee and warm pastries.
Soak in the sleepy fishing village atmosphere as you stroll Whitby’s harbour (500 metres) and find the best spot for salty fish and chips. As day fades, glimpse the gothic silhouette of Whitby Abbey from the iconic Whalebone Arch (400 metres). Ocean lovers can amble along the multicoloured beach chalets lining Whitby Beach (400 metres) or fossil hunt beneath the rugged cliffs of Runswick Bay (8 miles).
