Five Go Down to the Sea Whitby, North Yorkshire

Property Description

This sophisticated apartment set in the oh-so-charming town of Whitby and just a five-minute stroll from the beach has all the makings for a perfect family holiday by the sea.

Pack up your bucket and spades for days along the glorious golden sands of the Blue Flag West Cliff beach and promenade (just a five-minute walk). With its fish and chips shops, lashings of ice-creams, and nostalgic arcades that kids (and big kids) will love, it delivers all the seaside charm you're chasing.

When it's time for a spot of culture, soak up the gothic splendour and tackle the 199 steps of the mighty Abbey. Then dive into Whitby's narrow, medieval streets brimming with eclectic shops and traditional inns for a swift pint and bite to eat.

Back home, guests rave about the immaculate interiors, and we couldn't agree more. Carefully renovated throughout, you won't find any tiresome seaside-themed décor here – just smart, gloriously clutter-free spaces. Rustle up lazy breakfasts in the newly-fitted kitchen and dining space – you can always pick up supplies from the coffee shop located dangerously close just below you. And despite the apartment's central location, it all feels blissfully quiet thanks to some fancy soundproofing, so you'll be able to bank a dreamy night's sleep here.
