Fabulous apartment- everything you need for a lovely break. Very close to town centre and lovely park across the road. Great having 2 bathrooms too.Really comfortable, loads of great pubs and eateries close by. Whitby was very busy when we were there at New Year but lovely to come back to a great retreat after lots of walks during the day.

We had a lovely Christmas holiday at A Stones Throw, it had everything we needed to make it special. A fully equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and beautifully decorated. In a great location overlooking the park, we had no difficulty parking nearby on the hill. It's an easy walk into Whitby where we found plenty to do- boat trips, pubs, fish and chips plus tearooms. Thank you Kate and Gary for the extra special touches such as the Christmas cake and prosecco, we had a wonderful stay and won't hesitate to return in the future.
