In the heart of Whitby, this minimalist flat is all about clean lines, contemporary conveniences and crisp Scandinavian style. It's bright, light and totally sleek, with extras like a wine fridge and rainfall shower transforming it into a lovely little place to call home. Grab a book and snuggle up on the chair in the window – on a clear day, you can see across the rooftops towards the iconic Whitby Abbey. Feel like cooking? The kitchen has enough crockery to rustle up a meal, which you can share alongside a bottle of bubbly around the breakfast bar. But what makes this apartment really shine is the fantastic location. You're just a few steps away from Flowergate, surrounded by a flurry of chic bars, delicious restaurants, local shops and historic pubs. West Cliff Beach and the charming seafront is just a five-minute walk away, so days spent lounging in the sun and splashing in the waves are a given. Add in the proximity to Whitby's other hotspots – be it the Church of Saint Mary, whale-watching boat tours, museums and the Cleveland Way – and this pocket-sized pad is a perfect fit for a couple on a seaside getaway.

Famously the setting of Bram Stoker’s Dracula, there’s something hauntingly beautiful about Whitby. The ruins of Whitby Abbey, set atop a windy hill overlooking the town, are just like a scene from a gothic novel. When the sun sets, ghost tours amble through the cobbled streets, revealing the town’s dramatic history. By day it’s all idyllic fishing village vibes, with a hint of Victorian holidays.
