There is also a spacious enclosed rear garden, with an elevated decked area, boasting wonderful views down the harbour and over the town; the perfect spot for enjoying the afternoon sun, or even a BBQ whilst soaking up the scenery.
Enter the property to be greeted by a spacious open plan living area, on colder evenings snuggle up on the plush corner sofa in front of the warm glow from the gas stove. The designated chef of the group can whip up tasty meals for the whole family in the well equipped kitchen, which you can enjoy at the dining table looking down to the harbour and out towards the abbey, giving a wonderful view; or if the sun is shining, why not step outside and toast your retreat with a glass of fizz as the stars begin to fill the sky? Upstairs are two well presented bedrooms, both boasting Hypnos mattresses to ensure you get a great night’s sleep. There is a double bedroom as well as a master king bedroom. Plus the family bathroom is on this floor with a shower over the bath. As you go upstairs take a moment to take in the fabulous harbour views from the landing. The nearest pub and fish and chip shop are less than a 5-minute walk away – Whitby has unbeatable fish and chips!
The bustling centre of Whitby is awe inspiring, with the cobbled old town, beaches, piers and the iconic abbey all within a 10 minute walk. Whitby has something for all age groups and is one of the most visited resorts along the east coast. This seafaring town is proud of its heritage, there are tales of Viking invasions, heroic sea rescues as well as seafaring pioneers. Discover more at the museums, including one on a tall ship in the harbour. Today fishermen still sail from Whitby, there are many award-winning restaurants where you can sample freshly caught seafood. There are also festivals throughout the seasons making this a perfect all-year-round resort to visit.
The surrounding North York Moors National Park is full of woodland trails as well as the wonderful heritage steam railway that runs through the middle. The steam train leaves Whitby and travels over the moors towards the market town of Pickering, with picturesque villages along the way. There is an array of seaside towns and villages along the coast to visit, with breathtaking beaches and coves, including Staithes, Robin Hoods Bay, Runswick Bay and Sandsend.
For dog owners this is paradise, there are some wonderful walks to discover, and most beaches in this area are dog friendly or have dog friendly sections. Most pubs and cafés also welcome dogs here, there is even a dog bakery for extra special treats! There is something to delight everyone all year round, this is a great area to explore.

Beautiful property with stunning views in a perfect location.
Beautiful property with stunning views in a perfect location. Absolutely beautiful home that is spotlessly clean with everything you might need during your stay. Beautiful decor with great attention detail, seaside theme runs throughout the whole house with gorgeous matching themed items. The decking area is lovely for sitting out with a coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening. Everything is within easy walking distance, shops, pubs, fish n chip shop and Whitby town centre, we really couldn’t have asked for more. Perfect for family and dog friendly break awayThank you for a lovely stay
Our hosts were friendly and easy to communicate with if needed. Our stay was perfect! The property was extremely clean and homely everything provided for us and our dog. Can’t wait to book again when we next visit Whitby xx

This was the perfect property for a break with our two small children.
This was the perfect property for a break with our two small children. Extremely clean and comfortable and just a short walk to the centre of town.The house is so well equipped with everything you need. We were blessed with good weather so it was lovely to have the patio doors open while my toddler played on the decking. It can seem expensive for the week but that it is definitely just the going rate these days for a popular spot unfortunately!
