If you're dreaming about a seaside trip to Whitby, there's no better spot to stay than in the very centre. Only a stone's throw from the attraction-lined River Esk, trail through these quirky streets for ten minutes and spend an afternoon on the Blue Flag-awarded West Cliff Beach. Or, why don't you tour the nearby Dracula Experience before climbing up the iconic 199 steps to Whitby Abbey, where you'll see Bram Stoker's supernatural inspiration? Each morning, wake up in a calming bedroom before you hop under a refreshing rain shower in your en-suite bathroom. Enjoy slow mornings in this open-plan living area, as you sip a cup of tea and cook a fry-up for breakfast. Once you've been out exploring, we're sure that you'll want to return to this homely space ahead of a cosy movie night. For dinner, simply gather your loved ones around this gloss-wood dining table – the perfect place to discuss tomorrow's adventure over fish and chips.

Famously the setting of Bram Stoker’s Dracula, there’s something hauntingly beautiful about Whitby.

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.
