Gaze out of the window of this home to spot the imposing ruins of Whitby Abbey rising up in the distance. Inside, the cast-iron fireplace and exposed wooden beams are a delightful reminder of the building’s history. Settle into the stylish sofa or take in the view while cooking in the sleek kitchen. You’ll be right in the centre of Whitby, meaning that the seaside town’s cafes and seafood restaurants are just a short stroll away. When you’re not walking along quaint, cobbled streets or watching the boats bobbing in the harbour, take a walk to the sandy stretch of Whitby Beach to swim in the sea and admire the colourful beach huts.
