About this property
A spacious, three bedroom Georgian holiday cottage situated on Cliff Street in the West Cliff area of Whitby, only five minutes’ walk from the picturesque town centre.
Set over four floors, Pier Lane House offers spectacular panoramas of the sea, harbour and Whitby Abbey. It boasts a lovely balcony, terrace and gardens – quite a rarity for such a central location. Families and couples will appreciate the generous accommodation and the quality of its furnishings, as well as many period features.
The ground floor comprises a fabulous kitchen, equipped with everything you’ll need to rustle up dinner. Solid granite worktops and a woodburning stove give the whole area a satisfying sense of style and cosiness. This is the heart of the home! The dining table at its centre is perfect for sharing a meal and chatting over the places you’d like to see next. Be sure that Whitby Abbey is on your list, there’s an excellent view of the iconic ruins from your kitchen window.
A separate utility, sun room and cloakroom complete the ground floor.
Moving upstairs, there are more charming spaces designed with relaxation in mind. A delightful sitting room with woodburning stove-style gas fire and TV, also a covered terrace – perfect in the warmer months.
There’s a double bedroom and a smart bathroom with bath, shower over, basin and WC.
The second floor has a charming twin bedroom with en-suite shower room, luxury master bedroom suite with sitting area plus a private stairway that leads to a heavenly bathroom with roll-top bath – indulge with a glass of champagne!
It’s worth re-iterating just how lovely the outside space is at this property. Beautiful, private gardens with seating and a covered courtyard with bike storage on the ground floor. Also a superb decked sun-terrace with seating on the second floor – wow, what a view! An ideal spot for sunbathing or simply relaxing with a good book.
All that fresh seaside air is bound to make you feel peckish – so head into town to sample some of the finest fish and chips in the world, all freshly caught and served with a pot of steaming Yorkshire tea. Afterwards, enjoy a bracing coastal walk – there are so many wonderful beaches to choose from on the heritage coast, as well as many pretty fishing villages to admire, such as Staithes or Robin Hood’s Bay. For a change of scenery, head inland to see the stunning North Yorkshire Moors in all their splendour.
Pier Lane House, with its superb Georgian proportions, is a beautiful place to start your love affair with Whitby.
The ancient fishing port of Whitby lies at the mouth of the River Esk and is ideally situated for exploring this beautiful part of Yorkshire, with its superb coastline and close proximity to the spectacular North York Moors. Whitby is a charming and atmospheric town of winding streets and hidden alleys, with a picturesque harbour, safe sandy beaches and of course the Abbey, reached by the famous 199 steps.
