Yorkshire seaside life is on your regal doorstep at this historic apartment, which can be found at one of Whitby's most prestigious addresses on the iconic Royal Crescent in West Cliff. Dating back to the 1850s, this sweeping row of Victorian buildings provides an impressive backdrop to the vast communal lawns of Crescent Gardens –four-legged friends and children alike love this space. And things only get better once you step inside this immaculate home. Newly renovated with an open-concept living space, you'll love how fresh and inviting this home feels. While your nominated chef of the group rustles up a bite to eat in the newly-fitted kitchen, you can keep them company from the dining table or the sumptuous velvet sofas. Or sneak away to the peaceful outside terrace with a glass of something chilled and a good book to catch the last of the evening summer sun. When it's time to soak up Whitby's seaside charms, mosey down to the town's vibrant centre (just ten minutes away on foot) for an amble about the eclectic shops and traditional inns. Soak up the gothic splendour and tackle the 199 steps of the mighty Abbey. Or simply spend the day on the beautiful,... blue flag West Cliff Beach lined with idyllic beach huts before a supper of lip-smacking fish and chips overlooking the sea. Wherever you choose to be, Whitby delivers seaside charm at its very best.

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.
