About this property

Seastar is a stunning terraced property set in the seaside town of Whitby, with delightful décor and ample amenities, within easy reach of local attractions and an idyllic base for a family or group of friends looking to explore North Yorkshire. Park on the roadside and enter through a front door adorned with a gold starfish doorknocker, making your way into a light and airy kitchen/sitting room with beautiful décor and tasteful furniture, where you can settle into the sitting area beside the large windows and plan the day ahead of you with a cup of coffee. Throughout the property there are original features which have been incorporated into contemporary design, for example the lovely arched space above the oven. The kitchen space is amply fitted to cater to your culinary needs, and the tasteful dining room is an ideal spot for family mealtimes. From here, access the rear enclosed courtyard, a truly lovely spot to enjoy a glass of your favourite beverage as you reflect on the days adventure. When sleep calls, freshen up in a spacious bathroom with either a soak in the tub or a warm shower, before settling into one of the three stunning bedrooms, each with fantastic décor and plenty of storage, beginning with two double bedrooms, one with built-in wardrobes, and there is an attic twin room with eye-catching windows allowing for views across the town. Whitby is a delightful seaside town with a great selection of local shops, pubs and restaurants for guests to enjoy. Riverside and coastal walks are available in abundance, and guests can spend a day enjoying the local sandy beach and salty air. Whitby has an escape room, museum and the incredible Whitby Abbey, as well as easy access to walks along the North Yorkshire and Cleaveland Heritage Coast. Visit the stunning Robin Hood’s Bay for a day at the seaside, Scarborough with its many arcades, shops, incredible castle and museum, or visit the picture perfect harbourside town of Staithes. The property is also ideal for exploring the incredible scenery of the North York Moors National Park, ideal for hiking, birdwatching and mountain biking. All of this and so much more awaits with a stay at the fantastic Seastar.

The seaside town and port of Whitby lies at the mouth of the River Esk in the Scarborough district of North Yorkshire. Ideally situated for exploring this beautiful part of Yorkshire, the local area hosts an array of activities so you can be sure to get the best out of both the countryside and the coast. From the nearby North York Moors to its Blue Flag beaches, there's something here for everyone. Amongst its many attractions, Whitby holds a charming atmosphere, home to winding streets and hidden alleys, where you can find a wide selection of eateries and shops scattered amongst them. Take a trip to the picturesque harbour and lighthouse to watch the sun set or get involved in some whale watching or a coastal cruise to watch the creatures up close. Climb the famous 199 steps to the Whitby Abbey to immerse yourself with history, or visit the Captain Cook Memorial Museum presenting historical and ethnographic exhibition about Cook himself. Close to the Robin Hood's Bay, rich in heritage, wonders and scenic spots, and in easy reach of the bustling towns of Scarborough and Middlesbrough, Whitby is a prime location for exploring all of the delights that Yorkshire has to offer.

    The house was very clean & tidy. Very comfortable. We only used the main bed which was extremely comfortable. The house is well equipped & minutes walk into Whitby. There is nothing really to criticise. The only thing to be aware of is parking on street outside is a lottery. Our car only managed one night directly outside the house. Other than that it was either parked in a town car park (£9.50 a day) or somewhere near the house, wherever we could find. Although the house has three bedrooms it wouldn't be suitable for 6 as advertised. There is just not enough seating on the sofa or dining table to accommodate 6 people. The only other thing to be aware of is both sets of stairs are very steep & narrow.

    Probably better than as advertised. It was incredibly clean, spacious and welcoming, beds were comfy, as was the sofa, but the house was stunning. Wouldn’t hesitate on staying again. Only bit of feedback (from a family of 5) is a door lock on the bathroom. That’s not a negative at all, just feedback.

    Needed a chair or two , some soft furnishings and somewhere to hang clothing at least , a real shame as this lets the house down. Nit picking but the dining room was extremely cold , no heat source in there . Great central spot though however parking was extremely hard to find , but managed over the weekend. Also seemed to be a problem with overflowing water from the bathroom onto the garden area, possibly a blockage somewhere. I would recommend the property Germaine Urry
