Found in the heart of Whitby, this apartment is perfect for a romantic break away with the bonus of a delightful balcony.

This stylish apartment ticks all the boxes and is only a stride away from all of Whitby’s attractions and famous fish and chip restaurants. Discover the stunning open plan living area; at one end lies the modern kitchen, appointed to with all the mod cons needed for a relaxing stay, including an electric oven and induction hob, microwave, dishwasher and even a washing machine, so you don’t have to bring your whole wardrobe! Serve up a home cooked meal served at the contemporary dining table and chairs.

After dinner, settle down in the lounge area on the sofa or armchair and tune into your favourite TV shows, or grab a refreshing drink and enjoy the last of sun from the private balcony.

Wash away the day in the fully-tiled bathroom, offering a bath for luxurious soaks and a shower over for those quick rinses.

After you’re feeling refreshed, climb into the sumptuous king-size bed, watch TV and begin dreaming about your next adventure.

When you’re ready to explore, you won’t have to walk far to find the historical streets of Whitby, which include many independent shops to browse and fabulous eateries to sample.

Pack your seaside bag and head to the Blue Flag beach, ideal for an afternoon of sunbathing or why not test yourself at a new watersport?

Climb the 199 steps to Whitby Abbey for spectacular clifftop views, or visit the Captain Cook Museum to read about the great explorer's adventures.

Further afield, explore the delights of Scarborough, boasting the popular SEA Life aquarium and a water park, along with the stunning Scarborough Castle that lies right on the coast.

There's plenty to look forward to with a holiday at Explorers Rest, especially with the gorgeous North York Moors nearby for stunning walks and bike excursions.

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 array of activities 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 everyone. 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. Close to the Robin Hood's Bay, rich in heritage, wonders and scenic spots, and in easy 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.
