Split over two storeys, this stunning two-bedroom cottage encompasses modern décor with original period features and is in an amazing location, situated just metres from the harbour which makes it a cosy bolthole for coastal explorers. Famous for its connections to Bram Stoker’s Dracula, Whitby (0.5 miles) has embraced its association with Gothic culture, reflected in the town’s quirky shops and cobbled streets. Outside your front door, enjoy stunning views of the headland by climbing the famous 199 Whitby Abbey steps (less than 0.5 miles) leading you from the Old Town up to St. Mary’s church. Throw yourself into the gothic atmosphere by discovering the ruins of 13th-century Whitby Abbey less than 0.5 miles away, overlooking the headland and boasting even more magical views over the rugged coastline. Get back to nature at Pannett Park 0.5 miles away and explore the woodland area, rose garden, Jurassic garden and one of the country’s only floral clocks.
A grand entrance porchway welcomes you through to a modern open-plan ground floor, with a sleek kitchen with plenty of cupboard spaces and all the appliances you’ll need to keep everyone fed on your stay. The kitchen is partitioned from the living space by a cosy dining table for four. Original features such as the panelled walls and exposed beams can be appreciated in the living space, with a comfortable sofa nestled aside an ornate fireplace. There is also a TV in here. On the first floor, you will find a double bedroom with built-in wardrobes, a TV and more stunning exposed beams, along with the designer wet-room featuring a wonderful walk-in shower and WC. A twin bedroom on the second floor under the eaves features statement exposed beams, a TV and wonderful views of the harbour and beyond.
The exterior of the cottage wraps around the cobbled street down to the harbour, and black flower boxes adorn the windows. There is no private garden available at the cottage but the beach is just metres.
