Overlooking Whitby Harbour, take in the captivating views of the local scenery from the warm and humble atmosphere of this peaceful retreat. We could spend hours simply staring out the living room window with a cup of Yorkshire Tea. Watch the sailboats bobbing along when the tide is in – from here, the soothing sound of the water alone is enough to put you in a meditative state. After days of exploring the refreshing locale – where better than the large bathtub to unwind as night draws? Located only a two-minute walk from the town's Tate Hill beach, there is plenty to see and do quite literally just a stone's throw away. So whether you prefer to lap up the local pubs and fish restaurants come meal times or rustle up your own culinary treats at the apartment – you'll be well-positioned to take in the spectacular sea views in this part of Whitby.

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.
