A well-styled home in the heart of historic Whitby, Leading Lights is an ideal retreat for a family or group of friends. A fantastic choice for visitors year-round, Whitby is well known for its long sandy beach and delicious seafood. The inspiration for Bram Stoker's novel Count Dracula, the ruins of Whitby Abbey can be reached by climbing the 199 steps from the old town. Whitby Harbour is steeped in history, and visitors can see where British explorer Captain James Cook first worked as an apprentice before setting sail and discovering Australia. In addition to the town’s fantastic mix of boutique shops, traditional stores, tea rooms and excellent restaurants, numerous festivals and fairs are held throughout the year. These include Whitby Folk Week, the Whitby Regatta, and two popular Gothic festivals.
Climbing two short flights of stairs, you pass through the wood-floored hallway into the beautiful living/dining area. Here, original wooden panelling adds a touch of grandeur to this comfortable room. Two sofas and two armchairs offer cosy places to relax with a flat-screen TV next to the decorative fireplace. The well-appointed kitchen features a tiled splash-back and everything you could need to cook up a storm. Up the stairs, you will find the first two bedrooms. One with a double bed, the other with twin beds. Both have their own stylish en-suite shower rooms. A further flight of stairs takes you to the sumptuous master bedroom with an inviting king-size bed under the sloping roofline. This floor also houses a gorgeous bathroom with a freestanding bath, perfect for soaking the legs after a day exploring this fascinating town.
