    “Amazing views and beautiful apartment.”

    The views from this property cannot be overstated; the Abbey framed perfectly in the balcony door, the town rooftops, the whole of the bay, wonderful sunsets, watching the tide come in and out. Sitting on the balcony watching the world go by and listening to the sea. The apartment was large, clean and comfortable, well equipped kitchen, comfy beds, fluffy towels. Clean bathrooms. Great spot as near to town but not in the thick of it. The owners send a very handy guide to the flat (where things ...

    The views from this property cannot be overstated; the Abbey framed perfectly in the balcony door, the town rooftops, the whole of the bay, wonderful sunsets, watching the tide come in and out. Sitting on the balcony watching the world go by and listening to the sea. The apartment was large, clean and comfortable, well equipped kitchen, comfy beds, fluffy towels. Clean bathrooms. Great spot as near to town but not in the thick of it. The owners send a very handy guide to the flat (where things are, how appliances etc work, the local area) to you digitally which was a great touch and very handy. There is a lift which is handy for bringing everything in when you first arrive. Otherwise the stately old hotel stairs are easy to go up and down if you have no mobility problems. If you don't know Whitby, the cliffs down to the beach are STEEP; there is a cliff lift but not working when we were there. I think my legs are still tired! The beach is clean, lifeguarded and the sea very clear and calm. Dogs are allowed on certain parts only. High tide comes right in so keep an eye on the tide times. Whitby is absolutely charming and incredibly pretty. However, I have never stayed anywhere in the UK as packed and busy as it was over a sunny, summer holiday weekend. Luckily the flat is away from the hustle and bustle. I recommend walking round early in the morning to get a real feel for it before the crowds arrive. If I visit Whitby again, I would absolutely rent this flat.

The property

An outstanding third floor apartment set in an attractive converted hotel, right on the seafront with arguably the best views in Whitby.

Access to the beach is directly outside the apartment and all of the town’s amenities are just a few minutes’ walk away, making this lovely apartment ideal for families and friends to explore this popular, atmospheric town.

With easy access by lift or via the original staircases, the property has a spacious and light, open plan living area, which includes a modern kitchen with a breakfast bar and wrought iron dining table.

There are three steps up to the contemporary sitting room, which with it's high ceilings and expansive windows, gives a real feeling of the former grandeur of this Victorian building.

There are stunning, sweeping views over the sea, stretching right along the coast as far as the eye can see.

The apartment was fully renovated by the owners in late 2014 and the end result is a very modern, comfortable and desirable place to enjoy a holiday.

A small balcony leads off from the kitchen, perfect to enjoy the fresh sea air over a morning coffee!

With four individually styled bedrooms and a luxurious Jacuzzi bath, in addition to a large walk-in shower, this superb apartment suits all guests.

There are pubs, restaurants and tea rooms close by, along with the cobbled market square and quaint alleyways and streets to explore.

Why not enjoy a leisurely hour-long walk along the promenade to the pretty little village of Sandsend, with its seaside cafes and art gallery?

Climb the ancient 199 steps up to Whitby Abbey and St. Mary's Church, perched high on the cliff top overlooking the town.

There are attractive ornamental gardens in Pannett Park, or you may wish to visit the Captain Cook museum.

The surrounding area has many attractions including a nostalgic trip on the famous North York Moors Steam Railway which winds its way through heather-clad moors from Grosmont to Pickering, or maybe enjoy a fun-filled day at Flamingo Land theme park.

A superb beachfront apartment in Whitby with wonderful sea views.

About the location

WHITBY

Robin Hood's Bay 5.5 miles; Scarborough 19.3 miles; Pickering 23 miles; Guisborough 21.5 miles.

The seaside town and port of Whitby lies at the mouth of the River Esk in the Scarborough district of North Yorkshire. Ideally situated for exploring this beautiful part of Yorkshire, the local area hosts an abundance of activity so you can be sure to get the best out of both the countryside and the coast. From the nearby North York Moors to its Blue Flag beaches, there's something here for every interest and time of year. Amongst its many attractions, Whitby holds a charming atmosphere, home to winding streets and hidden alleys, where you can find a wide selection of eateries and shops scattered amongst them. Take a trip to the picturesque harbour and lighthouse to watch the sun set, or get involved in some whale watching or a coastal cruise to watch the creatures up close. Climb the famous 199 steps to the Whitby Abbey to immerse yourself with history, or visit the Captain Cook Memorial Museum presenting historical and ethnographic exhibition about Cook himself. Hosting an abundance of leisure facilities, opportunities to explore the natural lands, and plenty of coastal delights, Whitby offers something for everyone. Close to the Robin Hood's Bay full of heritage wonders and scenic spots, and in reach of the bustling towns of Scarborough and Middlesbrough, Whitby is a prime location for exploring all of the delights that Yorkshire has to offer.
