Property code: OC-W121

A comfortable and cosy property for two, this oak-furnished apartment places you in the heart of the seaside town of Whitby. The River Esk is 350 yards from the front door, with a sandy beach, a harbour and a heritage pier less than half a mile away; from here you can take guided walks or coastal cruises, visit museums and tearooms, and sample the famous Whitby fish and chips. The town’s 13th-century abbey — which served as the inspiration for Bram Stoker's Dracula — is also just 0.5 miles on foot. Those arriving by train will find the location especially convenient, as the property is just under half a mile from the railway station, providing easy access further afield to the North York Moors National Park.

The apartment is found on the building’s second floor. Accessed via a flight of stairs from the large ground-floor lobby area, the hallway leads onto the lounge/diner, where a picture window frames the far-reaching views of the town across to the verdant countryside and over the cliff top, while a flame-effect electric fire provides a cosy glow. On the same level are a contemporary kitchen, a king-sized bedroom with a dressing table and stool, and a shower room.

  • 1 king-size bed
  • 1 shower room with WC
  • Electric ceramic hob oven and grill, microwave, fridge with ice box and washer/dryer
  • Smart TV with Netflix
  • On-street parking for 1 car on a first-come-first-served basis (scratch card permit for use within designated zones)
  • Pub, shop and beach 500 metres
  • Access to the property is via a staircase, the stairs are not suitable for people with mobility problems
  • This property will be decorated for Christmas
  • Arrival: 16:00 onwards
  • Departure: before 10:00
  • Sorry, no dogs allowed

We have stayed at seagull vista for four years in a row, the view is amazing and the area is perfect, close to town but still lovely and peaceful. I do feel that the time has come for it to get a bit of TLC now though, could definitely do with some fresh paint and some improvements to make the living room more comfortable.

Cosy little hideaway with great views towards the harbour, and in an excellent location. The flat is compact, but everything is very well designed and laid out, so that it doesn't feel cramped. Decorative touches and pictures on walls are wonderful. We had a great holiday and really enjoyed staying in this flat.

Comfortable and simple with plenty of storage. Amazing views and quiet location. A few kitchen items needed to be rewashed before use and dusty cobwebs on bathroom ceiling let the property down a little.

The property is situated in a narrow street overlooking the River, and a good view of Whitby Abbey. Everything you would need was provided and a very nice welcome pack, with some much appreciated goodies. The bed was very comfortable, shower refreshing a smart tv to boot. There were parking permits provided, which were extremely handy. we just leftRead more the car in the road outside, as just about everything is within walking distance. All in all a very pleasant experience. Hide

We really enjoyed staying at Seagul Visita in Whitby. The accommodation was very well equipped with lots of information about the appartment as well as local information. There was also a view of Whitby Abbey. We would definitely recommend a stay here.

What a great find! Perfectly placed in the centre of Whitby, with very quick access to shops, cafs, bars and all the local attractions. Bed was extremely comfortable, the shower was great, the living room was perfect. Everywhere was clean. I would definitely recommend staying here, and I will stop again in the future.

This is a very cosy apartment, nicely decorated and furnished with good quality, comfortable furnishings. It is in a good position in the town with a lovely view over the rooftops to the Abbey and partial view of the river. The whole area is beautiful, we loved it.
