The seaside town of Whitby offers every English, coastal delight that you’d expect. Takeaway spots for fish and chips, ice cream parlours, piers, and lighthouses are just some of its charming features. While you explore every corner of this ancient town, you’ll need a cosy place to call home. This apartment, just a twelve-minute walk from Whitby Beach, is perfectly placed to experience it all. Elegant and modern, the interiors feel very inviting. Parquet floors and a rich blue velvet sofa bring a high-end luxe vibe, while glass tables and a superbly 21st-century white fireplace offer sophisticated minimalism. We love the bright living space, with French doors leading out to your own private patio. Perch on the ornate wrought-iron furniture with a gin and tonic to start the holiday in style. Nine minutes away, you can stroll to Whitby train station (a Grade II listed building) with ease. From here, the north of England is yours to explore. Try a two-hour trip through the North York Moors National Park to reach the market town of Darlington, for shopping, dining, and even more historical landmarks.

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.
