Just a four-minute stroll from the blue flag shores of West Cliff Beach and its cheery beach-hut-lined promenade, this home's location alone is enough reason for us to praise it to the skies. Here, you're ten minutes from the bustling town centre on foot and even closer to Pier Road, with its delightful array of waterfront pubs, arcades and seafood restaurants. Across the river, the storied ruins of Whitby Abbey are a fifteen-minute stroll from your doorstep. Light-filled and stylishly decorated, this home's interiors beckon you to relax from the moment you step through the door. You'll find it perched on the third floor of a Victorian townhouse and boasting spectacular views of the coast. Admire them whilst preparing a feast in the fully-fitted kitchen and, from the double bedroom, gaze out towards a crystal-clear snapshot of Whitby Abbey. After days spent swimming in the North Sea, strolling through the cobbled streets of Whitby's old town or hiking through the North York Moors, you'll love returning to this well-equipped abode. Spend evenings cradling cups of tea around the dining table or snuggled up on the sofa in front of the flat-screen television for a cosy movie night in.

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. Colourful cottages that have seen...
