This charming period property is set amidst the cobbled streets of West Cliff and is the perfect spot for a group of friends or family to spend time together, come rain or shine. The townhouse is in a terraced row close to the town centre with its independent shops and excellent seafood restaurants, as well as Whitby Pavilion and a long sandy beach. Walk up to the ruins of Whitby Abbey – the inspiration for Bram Stoker’s Dracula – for astounding views or wake up early and see the fishing boats return to the harbour with their catch.
Or you could just stay put, as there’s plenty to keep all ages amused. After climbing three steps to enter the property, sink into a comfortable sofa or armchair in the sitting room and watch TV, or head to the well-equipped kitchen to cook up a storm and eat together around the table. There’s a convenient WC on the ground floor, and a nifty bathroom on the landing. Three bedrooms are on the first floor – a double, twin and single – and the attic on the second floor has a double bedroom with lovely sea views, a TV and an en-suite bathroom. Best of all? The basement has been transformed into small a 3D Blu-ray cinema, a games room with a pool table, and a lounge area with a selection of games and a record player.
The enclosed sitting area at the back of the house is the perfect spot for kids to blow off steam or for adults to enjoy a drink in the evening.
