With harbour views from many windows, this historic home is close to all Whitby has to offer. The former home of Captain William Scoresby, this grand residence is on Whitby’s harbourside, overlooking the River Esk, with the Abbey, 199 steps, fish and chip shops and the beach all within 1 mile. If you fancy exploring further, take a walk along the Cleveland Way to Robin Hood’s Bay or, further afield, visit the spectacular landscape of the North York Moors National Park.
Step inside the entrance hall where there is a private porch, and climb the stairs up to the maisonette, arranged over the first floor. Inside is an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, perfect for relaxing in after a day exploring Whitby. The lounge area has comfortable sofas around a TV, while the kitchen is well-equipped and the dining table overlooks the harbour. The property’s two bedrooms – a double and a room with full-size bunk beds – are decorated in neutral tones for a restful night. A shower room with a WC completes the accommodation.
While there is no outside space at this property, the front door opens right onto the historic harbourside, with the beach less than 1 mile away.
