Property code: OC-W145

Split over two storeys, this spacious three-bedroom townhouse is a stone’s throw away from Whitby Pavilion and the sandy stretches of the Yorkshire coastline - a hidden gem for families and friends. Well-known for its stretches of sandy beach and delicious seafood, Whitby (0.5 miles) has a superb mix of restaurants and boutique shops, with the cobbled streets and historic yards providing a maze of places to explore. Overlooking the town, climb the famous 199 Whitby Abbey steps (1 mile) leading you from the Old Town to the rising gothic ruins of 13th-century Whitby Abbey, 1 mile away, and enjoy spectacular sea views along your ascent. Situated inside Whitby’s West Cliff Victorian Theatre, catch the latest blockbuster at Whitby Pavilion 0.5 miles away for fun whatever the weather. Discover the 17th-century house featuring Captain Cook Memorial Museum (0.5 miles) the former home to famous Royal Navy captain and explorer Captain James Cook.

The quaint entrance lobby leads you into a modern lounge, tastefully renovated, preserving some original features such as cornice moulding and an ornamental fireplace. A large comfortable sofa and chair accentuate the contemporary atmosphere, which is carried through to the ultra-modern kitchen/diner, kitted out with all appliances you’ll need for dining in. A farmhouse-style wooden table and chairs are nestled next to the all-white kitchen cabinets and feature painted walls, making the kitchen both a cooking and a social space. A cloakroom with WC can also be found on this level. On the first floor, you’re met with a luxurious double bedroom benefiting from an iron bedstead and a TV with Sky and Netflix. You’ll also find a twin bedroom with ample storage space and the modern family bathroom with a shower over the bath and WC on this level. On the second level, you’re met with the final bedroom, a spacious twin underneath the eaves with a stunning panelled ceiling and views out to the harbour and headland.

A courtyard patio at the rear of the property, enclosed for guaranteed privacy by a stone wall, is the perfect spot for al-fresco dining or catching some specular sunsets.

We had a lovely stay at 5 West Terrace, the beds were sooooo comfortable. The location and parking is fantastic, and the heating was easy to turn up. We did have a problem with one of the windows which opened due to high winds, but the owner rectified this swiftly, which gave us a great end to the holiday.

Perfect location - so handy for beach, restaurants, bars, shops and the historic sites. Loved the yard - a real morning sun trap to have your coffee, beautiful roses and very private and secure. Very useful info in folder with tips on house and surrounding area. Parking inside yard took a couple of attempts - but that is just my parking skills! WasRead more happier parking outside yard up against gates using the scratchcards provided. Kitchen very well equipped. Bathroom very modern, great powerful shower and the bath was lovely - very deep and great to relax in. Rooms large and house spacious in general with high ceilings. When we did have a slight problem the owners / agency response was very rapid and it was sorted efficiently. Beach hut was a real added bonus which we used regularly and loved - very well equipped and good convenient location - take lots of fresh water with you. Really loved this house - the location was ideal. Hide

Mostly highly satisfied with everything. Minor issues - ran out of toilet roll, oven could have been cleaner, no foil for oven tray. None of this would stop me re-booking.

A couple of dish washer tablets would have good. Various areas need redecorating. But good location and good price for a couple of days.

poor quality plumbing in this house, cold tap in downstairs toilet did not work and shower was hard to turn off, drips a lot. Decor not fantastic. However beds were comfortable and the location is excellent.
