The Location.
Whitby is a bustling seaside hub of pubs, restaurants, shops and tourist attractions. The apartment is walking distance to most things, including the sandy beach, but is set back on a quiet residential road. The best of both worlds! Just a 2 minute stroll will take you to the West Cliff with all of it’s attractions to enjoy plus amazing views out to sea. See the Captain Cook memorial statue, have your photo taken at the famous whalebone arch, enjoy a game of crazy golf and a coffee or ice cream at the famous Claras. From here you can walk down the steps to the beach, the pier and the bandstand and then walk along Pier Rd and enjoy all the amenities there.
Also on West Cliff is the Whitby Pavilion theatre and cinema – why not take in a show or a film during your stay. The flat is also within a few minutes walking distance of the shops on Skinner St (including the amazing Bothams Bakery), Flowergate and Baxtergate, which in turn leads to the famous swing bridge. Walk across and discover the historic, cobbled Church St with it’s range of quirky, independent shops and tea rooms. Walk to the end of Church Street and you can get down onto Tate Hill beach - the infamous landing place of Dracula, or continue along Henrietta Street with its quaint crooked house, and onto the newly finished east pier. If you are feeling energetic you can turn right and climb the 199 steps up to Whitby Abbey a must do in Whitby)
If you want to take the car out then the delightful fishing villages of Staithes, Robin Hoods Bay and Runswick Bay are all within a 20 minute drive and well worth visiting. If you want to go a bit further afield then you have the rest of Whitby and the North Yorkshire Moors at your fingertips.
