A beautiful, relaxed two-bedroom cottage with nods to its seaside location, within easy access to world-famous heritage sites in the heart of the town centre. This property is a cosy haven for families and friends. Whitby, 0.5 miles away, known for its connections to Bram Stoker’s Dracula, has embraced its association with Gothic culture, echoed in the town’s quirky shops and cobbled streets. Overlooking the town centre, explore an oracle of Gothic culture in the ruins of 13th-century Whitby Abbey, also 0.5 miles away, benefiting from spectacular sea views of the headland. Take another step back in time to a bygone era and ride on a steam or heritage diesel train along 24 miles of magnificent Yorkshire Countryside at the North Yorkshire Moors Railway 9 miles away. On your doorstep, climb the famous 199 Whitby Abbey steps (0.5 miles) and discover even more superb views of the harbour, headland and beyond.
A few stone steps led you down into the entrance of the cottage, where you will find the living room, with a fluffy rug and stunning electric wood burner-effect fire setting the cosy atmosphere. A boat centrepiece on the fireplace begins the nods to the seaside aesthetic, which is carried through to the contemporary kitchen/diner, well-equipped with everything to cater. Beach life ornaments decorate the walls above the dining table for four tucked in its own intimate space away from the kitchen counter. Upstairs, you’re met with a smart double bedroom with a beautiful hardwood bedstead and built-in wardrobes. The second bedroom features bunk beds decorated with the same nautical theme as downstairs. A sea blue tile pops against the all-white bathroom with a shower over the bath and WC.
A splendid courtyard garden with a mixture of patio and stoned floor, enclosed by a picket fence and swathes of pink roses and flowing foliage, is an ideal sunny spot for soaking up the seaside atmosphere or al fresco dining.
