Whitby · YO21

A coastal townhouse for slow Whitby weeks

Four bedrooms, four bathrooms and a top-floor sitting room over the harbour rooftops — sleeps eight, just minutes from the beach and town.

Whitby on foot

From the front bench, the beach is two minutes away, the harbour eight, the Abbey fifteen.

  • Whitby Abbey ruins on the East Cliff at golden hour

    10 min walk

    Whitby Abbey

    The Gothic ruin on the headland that inspired Stoker's Dracula. Climb the 199 Steps from the harbour, lose half a morning, eat a long lunch on the way back.
