Situated on a former shipyard on the east-side of Whitby and nestled by the harbour; this stylish, light and airy apartment offers the perfect accommodation for groups of friends and families to explore this beautiful seaside town. The town centre is less than a mile away where guests can visit the array of shops and restaurants aligning the picturesque twisted cobbled streets. Climb the famous 199 steps to Whitby Abbey and enjoy sweeping views across the town and soak up the atmosphere of the place rumoured to have been the inspiration for Bram Stoker’s Dracula. For a little more immersive history, guests can take a stroll around the vibrant and bustling harbour and see where British explorer Captain James Cook first worked as an apprentice before setting sail and discovering Australia. Just under 6 miles away is the picturesque fishing village of Robins Hood’s Bay, famous for its fossil-filled beaches and tales of smugglers shipwrecks and pirates! This beautiful part of the world certainly has something to offer for all ages.

This stylishly elegant apartment, flooded with natural light, comprises well-proportioned and tastefully decorated rooms throughout. Guests will enter through the shared lobby and down one flight of stairs to the property’s spacious hallway with a utility cupboard. Enjoy views of the harbour and river from the contemporary open-plan living area with plenty of space to dine together; a comfortable lounge area, and a modern, well-equipped kitchen with French doors that open out onto the sizable courtyard, which is shared with the neighbouring apartment. There is a good-sized bathroom and three bedrooms - one king-size with en-suite shower room, another king-size, and a twin with 3' beds.

An enclosed courtyard, shared with one other apartment and accessed from the kitchen, completes the property.

We found 3, The Old Sail Loft a superb property and its location right on the waterside quite stunning affording constant ever changing views of all the wild life and nautical activities on the estuary. The apartment was extremely comfortable and beautifully kept and the provisions and welcome pack were highly generous. We enjoyed a very peaceful bRead morease there along with easy walking access to all the facilities of Whitby or inland into the surrounding countryside. It was great to be able to do so much without needing to use the car. Hide

Great location great views. The property would benefit from a few more kitchen utensils and a carpeted sitting room. Some issues with hot water.

The overall standard was very good therefore the level of marks. The only criticism was the parking available for accommodation for 6 the visitor slots were always full, so overall this aspect was very poor.

The property was ideal for us. Me and the wife, my Son and Daughter in law, and my two grand children. Being all on one level it was safe for a two year old. The one thing that was a problem was only having 1 set of keys. Not ideal when we split up.
