Nestled on a former shipyard, this stylish three-bedroom apartment overlooks the marina, with views out to the River Esk and Whitby Station, where steam trains can be observed rolling through. Whitby (1 mile) caters to every taste, whether it be history, walkways and cycleways or seaside living and activities. A great spot for crabbing, the West Pier features traditional seaside amusement arcades, as well as crazy golf, a shooting gallery, and a soft play centre perfect for younger children. Take a walk back in time to explore the 17th-century house featuring the Captain Cook Memorial Museum, the former home to famous Royal Navy captain and explorer Captain James Cook. Taking you even further back in time to a bygone era, ride on a steam or heritage diesel train along 24 miles of magnificent Yorkshire countryside at the North Yorkshire Moors Railway, 9 miles away.

Through the shared lobby, you’re welcomed into a spacious hallway which leads into the beautiful open-plan kitchen/dining/living space. The contemporary kitchen is well-equipped with all the necessities to cook, flooded with natural light from the large windows, where views of the marina can also be admired. A wooden dining table for four is housed inside the kitchen area, which is cleverly partitioned off from the living space by two comfortable sofas. The living area also features a textured rug, Smart TV and more stunning views out to the harbour. Back through the hallway, you’ll find a handy utility cupboard as well as three stunning king-sized bedrooms, and the master which boasts an en-suite with shower cubicle and WC. A spacious family bathroom with a thermostatic shower over the bath and WC completes this beautiful home-from-home apartment.

The apartment benefits from a shared outside patio area, with plenty of seating for stargazing or al fresco dining.

We have stayed at 5 The Old Sail Loft a few times and have always found it to be comfortable and convenient for visiting Whitby. Off-road parking makes it especially attractive as is the local bus stop.

Knocked a point off for the single glazed windows which were streaming with moisture and unable to open to even air the place. I know the owner is aware of this. It wouldn't stop us from booking this flat again, the beds were comfortable and cleanliness spot on.

Excellent property, so relaxing just sitting and watching out of the windows enjoying the great views. Spotlessly clean, nice and quiet, comfortable beds. Nice, easy walk (10 min) into town , only gripes are just one dishwasher tablet and no spare bin liners for a bin that is a specific size and shape.

the drain in the bath was full of hair. otherwise we had a great week and the flat was perfect, central enough to be able to walk into Whitby but far enough out to be quiet. The views were stunning.

We have booked this apartment before and always found it was clean and comfortable. The apartment is situated in a lovely setting and overlooks the river and marina. A nice flat walk to town and one of the best fish and chip shops a few minutes walk away.
