Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Set in the centre of Whitby, this loft apartment puts you a short walk from West Cliff beach, the promenade, arcades, and plenty of places to try fresh fish. Inside, it’s compact but practical, with a small living and dining area for relaxing after a day out. Being up in the loft means a bit of a climb, and the sloping, exposed beam ceilings might be a bit awkward if you’re tall. The views and sea glimpses are worth it, though, plus the skylight window above the bed is perfect for stargazing as you fall asleep.

About Whitby
Famously the setting of Bram Stoker’s Dracula, there’s something hauntingly beautiful about Whitby. The ruins of Whitby Abbey, set atop a windy hill overlooking the town, are just like a scene from a gothic novel. When the sun sets, ghost tours amble through the cobbled streets, revealing the town’s dramatic history. By day it’s all idyllic fishing village vibes, with a hint of Victorian holidays.
