Andrew
October 2024

“This must be our 10th time staying here so what else is there to say, it is absolutely brilliant and the owners are great to deal with.”

- Andrew, October 2024

Thank you! We are delighted that you like our apartment so much. Property Owner
Rita September 2024

“The apartment is beautiful, very spacious and very clean.”

The tea, coffee, sugar & milk was very much appreciated, and the little dog treat bag was a lovely touch for our dog. Would highly recommend this property & will definitely be booking again. The only thing I would ask for in the property is a full sized hoover.

- Rita, September 2024

Thank you for your lovely feedback, we look forward to welcoming you back. P.S. We won’t tell Henry our hoover that you thought he was stunted, it might offend him!! Property Owner
Sally September 2024

“Really excellent property in an ideal location; spacious, comfortable and welcoming.”

Perfect for our family group of mum, dad, baby and granny! Loved the arrival package of delicious biscuits, tea ,coffee and milk too. We will be booking again!

- Sally, September 2024

Thank you! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay, we look forward to welcoming you back! Property Owner
Neil September 2024

“A very nice place to stay in a great location, communication for the key and all information was good, the place was clean and well maintained, we would stay there again.”

- Neil, September 2024

Thank you for your lovely feedback. We hope to see you again. Property Owner
Peter August 2024

“Fantastic flat, very clean and well presented with everything you would need to make your stay as good as possible.”

Any problems that arose were sorted straightaway, the owners are a credit to Sykes letting. .

- Peter, August 2024

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. Property Owner
Gavin August 2024

“We were very impressed with the size and cleanliness of the flat.”

The dog biscuits and poo bags were a great idea. We had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. The only thing I thought could have been improved was the fact that the windows did not stay open without being propped with something and it was 27 degrees, also no nets or blinds meant we were not that private. This however would not put me off staying there again, fab location too

- Gavin, August 2024

Thank you for your feedback. We will be working on the windows at the earliest convenience. Property Owner
Danielle July 2024

“We had a lovely time.”

The apartment is in the right location easy access to everything. Great walks in all directions. The apartment had everything we need and the owners were wonderful and helpful.

- Danielle, July 2024

Thank you for your lovely feedback. We’re very glad that you had a lovely time, we were very happy to welcome you to Whitby. Property Owner
Anthony June 2024

“Enjoyed our stay in Whitby, apartment was lovely also met the owner who was really nice.”

Would recommend this place to everyone

- Anthony, June 2024

Thank you for your lovely feedback, it was very nice to meet you too. Property Owner
Louise June 2024

“Beautiful ground floor flat, spotlessly clean, comfortable, has a sea view from the sofa.”

The living room/kitchen and main bedroom are sunny and bright, while the back bedroom is more secluded and shady/quiet. Washing machine, iron and ironing board, clothes airer, , hair dryer, fridge, freezer, microwave, kettle, toaster, Tassimo coffee machine, tv and wifi, towels and bedding are all provided. Parking passes, tea, coffee, milk and a packet of locally-baked biscuits are all included too (thank you so much). Easy (and beautiful) short walk to the beach, Whitby’s town centre, and the Abbey. We had a fantastic time and are looking forward to coming back next Summer!

- Louise, June 2024

Thank you for your lovely feedback. We are so glad that you had a lovely time. We look forward to welcoming you back next year. Property Owner
Sarah June 2024

“The apartment is nice with big airy rooms.”

The settee opposite the TV is very uncomfortable, the windows don't keep any sound out so it was very noisy, the quilt was too heavy and thick, if it had been hot weather the quilt would have been unbearable. The other people in the building banged the front door every time they went out and came in. When we used the vacuum cleaner it smelled disgusting. It was nice to have a proper freezer and parking scratchcards and we got lucky with parking spaces outside the building.

- Sarah, June 2024

Thank you for your feedback. Maybe your choice of a Victorian apartment, in a house of multiple occupation, in a busy seaside town, was not the best. We’re sorry the quilt was too heavy, this balmy summer we are having is a real problem. The hoover and sofa we will address. Thanks again. Property Owner
Linda May 2024

“This was our second visit to Church Square.”

It had everything we needed for our weeks stay. The apartment is clean, spacious and well equipped. Close to all the amenities Whitby has to offer. The doggy treats were a lovely touch. Thank you for a great stay. Would definitely return.

- Linda, May 2024

Thank you for your lovely feedback. We’re glad the doggy treats went down well. It would be great if you returned at some point in the future. Property Owner
Julie May 2024

“Another fabulous stay at 1 Church Square.”

Perfect location for beach and town. The apartment is clean and bright and has everything you need for a lovely stay. Marley enjoyed his doggy treats and is looking forward to returning soon. Thank you.

- Julie, May 2024

Thank you! Tell Marley he is very welcome. Property Owner
Lindsay May 2024

We loved our stay and won't hesitate to come back.

- Lindsay, May 2024

Thank you, we are so glad you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner
Sandra April 2024

“This was our second stay at no 1 church square.”

The property is bright comfortable and warm. It has a well equipped kitchen and a utility room with washing machine, iron and board. We had a welcome pack of essentials plus washing up liquid and tea towel supplied. The property is close to the beach, pubs and shops.

- Sandra, April 2024

We are so glad that you like the apartment, thank you. Property Owner
Eric April 2024

“Superb apartment, it's got everything we needed and more!”

a very spacious apartment and great location, just 5 minutes in to town, but best of all for us (with our Labrador Holly) is the West Cliffs, the beach and prom? one day it was so very stormy at high tide we thought we were the only one's on the prom, except to be confronted by a seal waddling along!! it wasn't phased at all and we suspect it was having a rest from the rough sea, ten minutes later it had disappeared. We often come to Whitby, Scarborough and we like the Lake District but this is by far the best holiday let. thank you.

- Eric, April 2024

Wow! Thank you so much, we are happy that you had such a great stay… despite the weather! Property Owner
Adrienne March 2024

“Lovely clean apartment.”

Great location to the beach and amenities. Dog friendly. Heating was warm in the evening and cosy bedding. Great price point - we will be back! Thank you

- Adrienne, March 2024

Thank you, we are so glad you enjoyed your stay. We look forward to welcoming you back! Property Owner
Hannah February 2024

“A Fabulous apartment in easy walking distance of the beach, shops, amenities.”

I don't think the car moved for 4 days! Lovely walk to Sandsend and back on the beach and along the cliff top to Robin Hoods Bay (bus back was only £2, dogs travel for free). My friend and I enjoyed our leisurely holiday breakfasts watching everyone walk by before we set out for the day. The dogs loved it too, especially the proximity to the beach.

- Hannah, February 2024

Thank you for your lovely feedback. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner
Hannah and Hilda (dog) and Gill and Toby (dog) Feb 2024

“Ideally situated for Whitby town and beach plus all the lovely walks along the Cleveland Way and Cinder Track.”

Great apartment - hope we can come here again.

- Hannah and Hilda (dog) and Gill and Toby (dog), Feb 2024

Thank you for your feedback, we hope that you can come back too. Property Owner
Shane, Tracey and Rocco Jan 2024

“We have had a great week, we love staying in this warm, spacious flat.”

It is so convenient to leave the car and walk into Whitby. We have stayed here several times now as Whitby is so dog friendly. We hope to return again. Thanks.

- Shane, Tracey and Rocco, Jan 2024

We are so pleased that you like our flat, you are very welcome to come to stay again. Property Owner

Brilliant communication from the owners regarding key collection etc. We had a fantastic stay and will definitely be returning, thank you to all at No 1 Church Square

Laura November 2023

“Had a wonderful stay in a light, airy, cozy apartment.”

Very tastefully decorated and well thought out. Location is fantastic for beach walks and not too far from the brewery

- Laura, November 2023

Hahaha! My kind of woman Laura! Whitby Brewery is a great place. Thank you for your lovely feedback, we’re glad you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner
Maggie November 2023

“Very well equipped apartment - spacious and well located for the town, the harbour and the beach.”

Could not ask for a better place to stay. I stayed with my friend so plenty of space for both of us. The apartment was really cosy and would definitely stay again. Thank you :-)

- Maggie, November 2023

Thank you for your lovely comments. We look forward to welcoming you again. Property Owner
Stella October 2023

“Great property, clean, bright and in a central location.”

Great communication between the owner, Sykes and ourselves. Was really nice of the owner to sort out an extra parking permit and enjoyed our time at the property. The only 2 downsides were: there was no parking available in zone W so we had to pay to park on west street car park for the first two days. Did get spaces on the third day. Although this is not about the property it would be a factor in booking this property again. The 2nd is only a very slight grumble and just a personal opinion, I found the settee with the high sides uncomfortable to sit on. Other than that the place and the owners were great

- Stella, October 2023

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that you struggled with parking. Property Owner
Mark October 2023

“Location perfect and the accommodation had everything we needed, was super comfortable, well laid out for our family, very clean.”

Amazing stay ! Shame the weather wasn’t always on our side but the expectation of providing great weather out of the hands of our hosts

- Mark, October 2023

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. I very much wish we could have arranged the weather for you, it’s been awful. Property Owner
Val September 2023

“We love whitby and love this flat.”

everything always to a great standard, the owner is a lovely lady, the location is excellent, we are multi year returnees and would recommend it to anyone wanting a great spacy clean and affordable apartment. 10/10

- Val, September 2023

It was great to welcome you back again. Congratulations, I believe a celebration was in order! Thank you once again for your lovely feedback. Property Owner
Daniel September 2023

“Very spacious property.”

Everything was clean, comfortable and good cooking facilities. Location is perfect for beach and town. And plenty of car parking spaces around the property. Thank you for relaxing holiday

- Daniel, September 2023

We’re so glad you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for your lovely feedback. Property Owner
Laura September 2023

“Fabulous apartment in the perfect location.”

The apartment had everything we needed and was very comfy, in a quiet spot, but close enough to walk down into the town or beach. We would definitely return in the future.

- Laura, September 2023

Thank you for your lovely feedback, we look forward to welcoming you again. Property Owner
Glen August 2023

“We had a lovely 3 night stay at 1 Church Square.”

The flat itself is very spacious but it's biggest positive is the location which is perfect. The owner left milk in the fridge which was a nice touch. My only criticism was that the listing mentions a washing machine but there wasn't one (unless I couldn't see it). This was only a minor issue. All in all a great flat in a fantastic location. Would recommend.

- Glen, August 2023

Thank you for your lovely feedback. I'm sorry you couldn't find the washing machine, it lives in the utility room just opposite the bathroom. Property Owner
Becky, Kris and Joshua. Aug 2023

“Thank you for a lovely stay.”

We had a fantastic holiday in Whitby and your beautiful apartment has been a home away from home. Great home in a fab location with everything you could possibly need.. We recommend the Resolution bar for great meals at affordable prices. We enjoyed a walk along the beach to Sandsend and the steam train to Goathland. Stokers cafe is also brill - friendly and huge cake portions. Thanks again.

- Becky, Kris and Joshua., Aug 2023
Faye July 2023

“A lovely apartment in a great location with everything you can think of (and more) to make for an enjoyable stay.”

“1 Church Square was everything I had hoped it would be.”

..the location is perfect, the views are amazing and the owner is wonderful. She communicated and responded to any questions I had, left a lovely treat for us before we arrived and just welcomed us in a lovely way. I can't begin to say what a wonderful trip I had with my loved ones. I intend to travel from the United States again and I will be booking this lovely spot!

It was our pleasure having you to stay. We look forward to welcoming you back. Property Owner

“Very clean, well positioned property close to west cliff beach and town centre.”

Very spacious & ideal for those with dogs

- Bryan, June 2023
Alf May 2023

“No back garden, your listing said there was.”

Bedroom carpet well marked not by my dog,

- Alf, May 2023

Thank you for your feedback. Your comments about the carpet have been noted. The property unfortunately does not have a back garden, it never has; we will check the listing but believe that it only states that there is a small shared gravel area at the front of the property. Property Owner
Jane May 2023

“Lovely clean comfortable property.”

Everything you need. Great location, so close to the sea and all that Whitby has to offer.

- Jane, May 2023

Thank you for your feedback, we're glad that you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner
Ruth April 2023

“It was a very pleasant surprise that we had a partial sea view.”

An ideal location.

- Ruth, April 2023

Thank you for your feedback. We think it's lovely to see the sea too. Property Owner

“We have stayed here 3 times.”

Lovely apartment. Big and spacious. Very comfortable bed. Everything we needed. Dog friendly. Love walking into Whitby. Good walk for our dog. 10-15 minutes. It is great the owners live in Whitby too.

- Brenda, March 2023

Thank you for your lovely feedback, we are so pleased that you enjoy staying with us and we look forward to seeing you again. Property Owner

“3rd or fourth stay here and I would highly recommend, 1, Church Square Whitby, close to all amenities and in a quiet area, there is parking and the property is always spotless.”

Would highly recommend this property to anyone considering staying here. The Owners are only on the end if yhe phone and are always there ti answer any of your questions or queries l. Will be booking again soon

- Carl, February 2023
Carl February 2023

“On entering the accommodation it was fantastic.”

We have stayed a few times before and it never disappoints. It's homely feeling puts us right at easy. A beautiful front room with two settees, tv, table and chairs with a fully equipped kitchen with a welcome pack of biscuits and a pint of milk which was lovely. The front bedroom is very large with double bed plenty of hanging space and sitting space. The next room is the laundry room with sink, freezer and washing machine. Then the bathroom with WC, sink and bath with shower and plenty of space. Then the back bedroom with double bed and hanging space, not as big as the first room but plenty of space to easily walk round. We enjoyed our weekday stay and have already booked to come back on the 24/2/2023 for another weekend stay with friends. Its ideally situated near the sea about 700 yards to the nearest shop and Bakery and the same distance to a pub. Brilliant location.

- Carl, February 2023

Thank you for your lovely feedback. We look forward to seeing you again. Property Owner

When we arrived at the property we was amazed how large it was it was spotlessly clean and the beds were very comfy an excellent base to explore whitby we will definitely book here again

Stayed twice this year ideal location. Lovely owners, will be returning next year.

- Michael, November 2022

Thank you Property Owner
Paul October 2022

“Flat is in a great building and location, owners were quick to respond to queries.”

There was no welcome pack, this is the first place we have stayed in for a long time that doesn’t provide a welcome pack. However, there was a pint of milk in the fridge. A number of improvements could be made to make the stay more comfortable, toilet is not fixed properly and wobbles a bit, kitchen tap is awful, beds have old uncomfortable mattresses with mattress toppers, pillows are poor quality and some of the finishes were poor. Both the kettle and teapot leaked when trying to pour. Having said all that, there were plenty of pots, utensils etc, and it was a great place to stay and quality improvements to finishes etc would make it a 5 star place. My son broke the tumbler in the bathroom, I told the owner that I had left£5 to replace but never heard back from the owner, which I found a little strange.

- Paul, October 2022

Thank you for your feedback. Your comments have been noted. Property Owner
Val September 2022

“Our 4th visit to this property and we love it.”

...so much so we have booked again for 2023.

Looking forward to seeing you again next year. Property Owner
Julie September 2022

“Great accommodation, very spacious and clean, had a problem with the lack of hot water but a call to the owners and it was dealt with very quickly with no inconvenience to ourselves.”

The property is in a great location with a sea view! We would highly recommend to anyone wanting to stay in Whitby.

- Julie, September 2022

Thank you Property Owner
Lucie August 2022

“Lovely flat close by west cliff beach.”

Excellent communication with the owner and Sykes Holiday Cottages. Loved the accommodation, including utility room! Well equipped kitchen and sitting room, good sized bedrooms. Things to improve? Change the stiff kitchen tap, have hand soap and shower gel, tissues, bedding: lighter duvet/ extra sheets & throws, better pillows (softer/thinner) and easy to use key box would make this 8 out of 10 property an outstanding 10. Definitely recommend this flat and Sykes Holiday Cottages

- Lucie, August 2022

Thank you for your feedback. Property Owner
Karen July 2022

“Great location with parking outside the apartment, parking permits provided by the owner.”

A great sized apartment, well equipped and cleaned to a high standard . We will definitely book again!

Marley (the dog) was thrilled being so close to the beach for his early morning walks. Enjoyed it so much have already booked again for November.

- Julie, May 2022

Thank you, so glad you’ve enjoyed your stay. We look forward to welcoming you and Marley back. Property Owner
John May 2022

“Lovely apartment really comfy apartment just a little few things could make the stay a 100% with just a few adjustments the bath towels could do with being a bit more on the bigger size they where lovely and soft fresh smelling bit a bit small for someone who is 6ft4 and of a big stature like myself (ex rugby union player) we had a few early wakeup with work going on in one of the other apartments below us from 7.”

30 am but hey people have to fit things around their life's just that the bed was comfy just could have done with a later get up when having a holiday and not needing to be up early morning but all in all nice time nice flat lovely area west cliff and only minutes from town centre a little tip for cleaning lady the cooker hood needs looking at

- John, May 2022

Thank you for your feedback. Property Owner
Michael May 2022

“Apartment had everything you could have wanted.”

Great space, great location, side seaview, good powerful shower, Netflix, free parking and owners kindly supplied an extra permit for a second car. Highly recommended will definitely stay there again in the future.

Sandra April 2022

“This is a lovely bright spacious apartment.”

We thoroughly enjoyed a short break here and would be happy to stay again. We couldn't get parked outside the property but were close enough. (It was Easter weekend though). It has a comfortable bed.We had all we needed.

- Sandra, April 2022

Thank you, we’re glad you enjoyed your stay. ☺️ Property Owner
Terry March 2022

“It is our first time to this property in Whitby.”

It was a lovely apartment. Plenty of space. Very clean. Bed very comfortable. Rang owners regarding central heating. They were around within 10mins. Sorted. Excellent service. Very polite, friendly. Said any problems give us a ring. Definitely a bonus they live in Whitby. It was great we could take our dog. Only 10 minutes walk to Whitby. Enjoyed chilling on a evening. Will definitely recommend to family and friends. Will book again probably later this year.

- Terry, March 2022

Thank you. We’re glad you enjoyed your stay. ☺️ Property Owner
Carl February 2022

“1, Church Square, what can I say, a great property in a great location and near everything you want in Whitby.”

On entering the property it was warm and inviting and it had that homily feeling. The kitchen living room was large and spacious, with everything you need for your stay. The first bedroom was large and spacious with a beautiful bug window from where you could see the sea. Bed was a double and very comfy. Second bedroom was like any other double bedroom with enough space but was at the back of the property. Bathroom large with wc, wash basin and large bath-shower. It also had a washroom with washing machine and sink plus fridge/freezer. A great property and one we will be using not to soon in the distant future. Bring on our next stay to Whitby because we will definitely use this property again. (If Its Available).

- Carl, February 2022

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. We are happy you enjoyed your stay which is after all, the most important thing. Look forward to welcoming you again. Regards, Martin and Fiona. Property Owner
Sarah February 2022

“We had such a lovely stay at 1 Church Square.”

The accommodation was central to the beach and Whitby front. The beds were comfortable and plenty of space throughout the apartment. The washing machine and iron were great so we could keep on top of our dirty beach clothes. We loved the fact we could have our pooch with us on our holiday. The tv gave you options to watch normal tv and Netflix. Thank you so much for a fantastic stay!

- Sarah, February 2022

To William and Elizabeth, thank you so much for your lovely messages, we’re glad you had a lovely time in Whitby. Property Owner

Tracey November 2021

“Fabulous location and property.”

Everything you needed was there (except food) even down to cling film and foil. It was lovely and comfy and very clean. Great location and close to shops, restaurants and bars. I felt very safe as I was there part of the time on my own. Was there during high winds which knocked boiler out. Within 15mins of call to Fiona, Martyn was there to sort along with 2 ready mixed g&t’s as an apology. It wasn’t needed but it was a very thoughtful touch. Would I stay again, absolutely!

- Tracey, November 2021

Thank you Property Owner
Donna November 2021

“Ideal location beautiful views,furnishings need replacing ie sofa the kitchens ...”

Ideal location beautiful views,furnishings need replacing ie sofa the kitchens utensil were gresay flooring needs replacing,stained carpets in main bedroom ,no disfectant or washing up liquid,and with this uncertain times with covid i would of thought this would be basic practice

- Donna, November 2021
Val October 2021

“Liked it so much we have already rebooked for next year.”

....

- Val, October 2021
Gemma September 2021

“Fantastic little flat, very cozy and clean.”

Would highly recommend, only issue was finding a car park space as we often had to park on the next street and walk which was a slight inconvenience with children.

- Gemma, September 2021
Corrina August 2021

“Good apartment in an excellent location in Whitby.”

- Corrina, August 2021
Andrew June 2021

“The accommodation was clean, roomy and in a great location with views of the sea from the sofa.”

We had a great time and would go back. Would recommend the beds changed as they were a little uncomfortable for me and an en-suite in main bedroom but I’m being picky here. Overall great accommodation and location

- Andrew, June 2021
Carl May 2021

“The overall accommodation of 1,Church Square is brilliant.”

Maybe a couple of things to tweek and only a suggestion. Maybe table mats for the table and coaters for your mugs to be placed on. And maybe a guest book so you can express your feelings of your stay. And read what other people have thought of their stay. We have had a great stay and would highly recommend anyone wishing to stay, you will not be let down your stay. It will not be long before we are back to Whitby and we will most definitely be coming back to 1, Church Square if the price is right.

- Carl, May 2021
Val October 2020

“We loved the flat so much re rebooked it for next year even before our hol ended.”

..just one slight niggle....the toilet seat was very loose( and previous reviews say its been like that for a while)...anyway it gave up the ghost n broke on our last day there...that was our only negative and really it didnt bother us too much.

- Val, October 2020
Jan September 2020

“We wouldn’t class the property as luxurious.”

The second bedroom was down a low dark corridor. It needed the light on during the day. The bathroom, whilst well decorated and clean, didn’t have a towel rail or toilet roll holder. Also, the toilet seat needed securely fixing. The single glazed windows rattled in the wind and, if the sun wasn’t shining, the lounge felt chilly and we felt the need to put on the heating. Which worked efficiently. The beds were warm and comfortable.

- Jan, September 2020
Andrew September 2020

“Everything you require is provided in this apartment.”

The furnishings are lovely, the beds extrememly comfortable and even parking discs are provided. I cannot fault it at all, we had a great holiday and would definitely book again. The only thing i would do and this is just a personal preference is put Tvs in the bedrooms.

- Andrew, September 2020
Christine August 2020

“Fabulous location.”

Beautiful apartment and very well equipped. Please note for those with pets there is no direct access from the apartment to the yard. However this was not a problem as there is ample dog walking space right outside the property. Would definitely re book.

- Christine, August 2020
Susie July 2020

“Our holiday flat was lovely & clean, the main bed was very comfortable.”

The back bedroom bed was very firm, depends on your taste. The flat was nice & light, the curtains were OK & didn't let in alot of street light at night. The flat was in a great position for walkin into Whitby proper ..took about 5 mins... you can also easily drive to large supermarket . Could easily walk to the beach to walk our dogs & great base for exploring surrounding areas. Kichen could have done with a new non stick frying pan , but when I asked the owner, Fiona, she was always very helpful. There was no where to dry clothes or towels, but her husband kindly bought round an airer, which helped. Only downside is the parking - we did get 1 parking ticket. You had to either drive around for however long it took to find a parking space - but staying somewhere in August is always going to be difficult. All in all we did have a lovely holiday

- Susie, July 2020
Terence February 2020

“Would be nice to have a pir activated hallway light.”

Possibly a footstool in the lounge Would definitely use again.

- Terence, February 2020
Stuart February 2020

“Great setting.”

Close to beach and Whitby town. Lovely Chinese 5 mins away in old met hotel. Will miss breakfast in the bay window. Would be better with aerial in TV or a live TV app instead of having to watch on iPlayer

“This is a lovely apartment, with everything you could need.”

“This flat has a sea view which was a great, surprise loved sitting at the window looking out to sea.”

The downside was the tv not able to watch normal everyday channels. Not easy to use needs an aerial in our opinion but we did watch a couple of good films. We also noticed that a few more kitchen utensils would be helpful. Good value for money. Great location

“The TV was advertised as a Smart TV which I have at home However when I arrived I found the Smart TV was not connected to either freeview or freesat so I was unable to watch general tv with the advantage of Smart TV Apps This was extremely disappointing to have such limited viewing.”

With no Feeview or Freesat with or without the addition of Smart TV functions as much as everything else the flat, location etc was perfect I'll not go again

“The whole experience of using Sykes cottages from the initial booking onwards was totally stress free.”

The customer services team were spot on. The accommodation was absolutely amazing. The photos on the posted on the website are true photos and show exactly what the accommodation was like. I have to say this accommodation was the best I have ever stayed in. It was immaculately clean and comfortable. There was an information pack ready for us on arrival informing us of everything from local nightlife, visitors attractions etc right down to how to use the tv. The owner had even gone to the trouble of leaving milk, tea, coffee and toilet roll for our arrival.. best of all, the owner had even bought a bucket and spade for my 2 year old granddaughter. I would highly recommend the site and this particular accommodation. thank you

The property

Situated in the centre of the historic seaside town of Whitby, in North Yorkshire, is this superb apartment, resting in a larger Edwardian townhouse with partial sea views.

Inside, the property has been renovated to provide a wonderful base for friends and families looking to escape to the coast and access many of Whitby's finest sites.

Look forward to spending your evenings in the spacious open-plan living room, with plenty of space for you to unwind into the evening whilst catching up with your favourite shows.

Gather at the dining table to enjoy a hearty breakfast whilst planning the day's events, or use this as a quieter space to catch up on some reading of a morning with a warming cup of tea.

The kitchen has been amply-equipped with everything you could need to cook up a delicious home-cooked meal for the whole family!

The property has two spacious double bedrooms, both equipped with a range of modern furniture to store your personal items.

Delight in the family bathroom with an elegant bath and shower over, so you can enjoy a relaxing soak at the end of a tiring day.

Due to your central location, this is the perfect spot for accessing many of Whitby's finest sites, including its expansive coastline.

Spend your afternoons relaxing on the soft golden sands sunbathing, or take a cool dip in the clear waters.

Also nearby is the famous Whitby Abbey, situated in an elevated position and houses a wealth of history inside, as it was said to have been the home of the first known English poet.

Visit the 199 steps, and see how far you can get before tiring, but if you manage to reach the top, you will discover spectacular views across the town and coastline, and is the prime spot for photography and birdwatching.

Whitby also gives access to the quirky Captain Cook Museum where you can get a look into historical artefacts and information about Cook's voyages across the ocean.

Return to 1 Church Square for a relaxing evening with your loved ones.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.
