The cultural centre of North Yorkshire’s Heritage Coast, Whitby is a family-friendly favourite for holidays all year round. Developed around a deep ravine at the mouth of the River Esk, it’s a town with a thriving harbour, characterful cobbled shopping streets and a skyline dominated by the ruins of a stunning gothic Abbey and beautiful Norman church, both with literary links. It was from here that explorer and voyager Captain James Cook set sail on HMS Endeavour in 1768. Embark on your own adventure with a train ride into the North York Moors National Park – the station is half a mile from this mid-terrace period property.
Enter directly into a welcoming kitchen/diner, where you’ll find all the home-from-home essentials plus, for the ultimate in hassle-free self-catering, a washing machine, tumble dryer and dishwasher. There’s a dining suite here, plus plenty of cupboard and counter space. Conveniently placed, a ground floor hallway leads to a bedroom with twin beds, window seat and built-in wardrobes, plus a family bathroom. Located on the first floor, the lounge has original panelling, comfortable seating and an ornamental feature fireplace, and a window to the front offering a stunning view of the harbour, St Mary’s Church and Whitby Abbey. Also on this floor, there’s a double bedroom with its own shower cubicle and vanity unit, another bedroom with bunk beds, and a separate WC cloakroom.
Take a seat on the patio overlooking the lane to the front of the property, a lovely seaside sanctuary!
