Tucked away on a quaint yard with rooftop views of the Abbey and St Mary’s Church, this one-bedroom apartment is in the perfect spot for enjoying Whitby. Stroll into town to the numerous pubs, shops, cafes and restaurants, and sample the seafood Whitby is famous for at one of the local fish and chip shops. Or try kippers from Fortunes Kippers smokehouse and shop 0.5 miles from the flat. Soak up the fascinating gothic history with a visit to Whitby Abbey (1.5 miles away) – which inspired Bram Stoker’s Count Dracula – and Whitby Museum, 0.2 miles away. Soak up the sun on the sands of Whitby beach, 0.5 miles across town, or one of the many other beaches or bays nearby.

Inside the entrance, stairs take you up to this lovely property. The comfortable and homely living room has all you need for relaxing – snuggle up in front of the electric stove with a good book or a glass of something. Flex your culinary muscles in the well-equipped kitchen and enjoy your creations in the dining area of the living room. Upstairs, the large double bedroom has original features including sloping ceilings and beams as well as gorgeous views, plus hanging and cupboard space, and connects to the good-sized en-suite shower room.

The property is close to Pannett Park, a large communal space with beautifully maintained gardens to admire, and plenty of peaceful spots to sit and watch the world go by.

We had a great bank holiday stay at the property. It does have lots of steps as the details suggest but it was spotlessly clean and the location is why we booked it, 5 mins walk from the train station and town centre. There is lots of free parking just a few minutes walk from the property and a parking permit was also provided, even at the bank holRead moreiday we found parking easily available. Whilst basic, the property had everything you needed including a fan for the bedroom which was a very welcome thought. The security deposit was returned quickly. we would definitley book again if staying the weekend in Whitby. Hide

We enjoyed an excellent week at St. Hilda's View. Lived up to all our expectations. The proximity to the bus station and local supermarket was an added bonus.

This is a really good value-for-money cottage so close to the centre of town and it's very comfortable, clean and well equipped. For this price you don't expect swanky shower facilities and the shower room is very small. If you're used to the parking situation in Whitby there is no great problem over the lack of a designated parking space - we haRead morerdly used the car at all over the 6 days and left it on Upgang Lane where it's free unrestricted parking.
