A short walk into town, overlooking the sea, and with the most amazing views. The apartment is very cosy which we appreciated, as Storm Babet meant that we didn't venture out at all on our last day, but stayed warm and dry and enjoyed watching the waves! We had no problem parking; most of the time there was space in the car park, but otherwise there was plenty of room to park on Argyle Road outside using one of the permits provided. Seaview Heights is on the third floor, so great for the views, and the lift meant that there was no problem getting our things up and down on arrival and departure. We found the apartment very comfortable and well equipped, and would definitely use it again if we return to Whitby.

It is on the 3rd floor but is accessible by a lift. The bed in the main bed room was very uncomfortable; it felt like there was no mattress at all. It was not possible to have a shower at the same time as a bath was being run in the other bathroom due to very low water pressure. The apartment is only suitable for families and not two couples sharing. This is because the 2nd bedroom is very small and has no wardrobe. The furniture in the living room was laid out in a very strange way; we had to move one of the sofas so we could all sit together. Some of the equipment in the kitchen is quite tired and needs to be replaced. E.g. chipped crockery and handles coming off knives.
