About this property

This semi-detached cottage lies just a stroll away from the waterfront and seaside amenities of Whitby, on the fringes of the North York Moors. Tucked away from the hustle and bustle, yet within easy reach of the fine attractions of the town centre, choose to make the most of this well-appointed getaway with your family or a group of friends. You will be impressed by the spacious interior, which is not immediately apparent from the outside, yet allows you to relax and unwind with your loved ones with all the homely comforts of a beautifully appointed holiday home. Feel welcomed into the sitting room with the large bay window allowing plenty of natural light to highlight the quality of the furnishings. Sink into one of the inviting, plump sofas and tune into the Smart TV or stream your favourite songs through the sound bar. Head under the archway and into the dining room to enjoy a delicious meal together, with a full feast cooked up in the fully equipped kitchen next door. Once you are fully relaxed after a day of adventure, head upstairs to find three bedrooms; the master suite boasts a super-king-size bed and adjoining en-suite, while the king-size double and twin are served by the family bathroom. Spend a sun-filled afternoon in the enclosed rear garden with a chilled drink in hand and ooze in the coastal atmosphere. Spend a day at the beach, eating fish and chips or a game of pitch & put mini golf, then climb the renowned 199 stairs to the medieval abbey while admiring stunning coastline views from the summit. Take a stroll along the harbour, board a boat and go whale watching, or go for a sunset stroll along the pier to the lighthouse. The town centre also boasts a wide selection of pubs, shops, restaurants, cafes and local galleries. Six miles away is Robin Hood's Bay, a broad, sweeping bay surrounded by breathtaking cliffs and stunning moorland landscape. There, walkers may enjoy beach and cliff-top strolls, and prominent sights include the museum and the Old Coastguard Station, which is maintained by the National Trust. For any lovers of Bram Stoker an audio tour "In the footsteps of Bram Stoker" or the Dracula's Experience will spark your interest. After your numerous experiences in this intriguing region of Yorkshire, this little home is the ideal place to return to.
