Perfect for a small family, this second-floor apartment is situated near the West Cliff in the centre of Whitby, ideal for exploring everything on offer in this popular seaside resort. Wander through the cobbled streets, enjoy the quirky cafes and boutique shops, or climb the 199 steps to the romantic ruined abbey that overlooks the town. Spend all day on the long, sandy beach, where there are donkey rides, a paddling pool and skateboard area, have a go at crazy golf, trampolining or bumper boats or, for something different, hop onto a heritage train to be whisked 24 miles through the glorious North York Moors to the market town of Pickering with its 1930s-themed station.
From the shared entrance, two flights of stairs take you to the apartment itself, where the entrance hall has a distant view of Whitby Abbey. A similar view can be had from the ingenious porthole window in the open-plan lounge, where you will find two comfortable sofas gathered around a gas fire and a small dining table and two chairs. This handsome space with a large sash window has a timber floor, pretty pendant light fitting and feature wallpaper. A granite breakfast bar with two stools leads to the well-designed kitchen, where there is plenty of room for whisking up picnics, snacks and family meals. Completing the apartment are a light and airy double bedroom, a room with bunk beds – perfect for children – and a bathroom with a fabulous free-standing bath with shower over.
There is no outside space at this property.
