With incredible views of the Abbey and headland from its slanted floor-to-ceiling windows, this penthouse apartment in the heart of Whitby is as picturesque as they come. Blending industrial chic and driftwood beach décor, there’s a cool modern simplicity to this space that feels instantly welcoming. Whether you’re kicking back on the sofa with a glass of wine or waking up under the beamed ceiling in the master bedroom, you’ll relish feasting on views of Whitby’s iconic Abbey and the blue expanse of the sea. With a rooftop terrace to enjoy too, you can soak up the morning rays over coffee or toast to priceless vistas under the stars. When you’re not chilling out in your lavish pad – playing board games, taking long soaks in the tub or gazing out at the views – go out and explore your surroundings. You’re just a five-minute walk from Whitby Beach, a ten-minute walk from the 199 Steps and fifteen minutes on foot from the Abbey itself.

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.
