About this property

Two double bedroom flat with fantastic roof terrace overlooking Swing Brid

From the roof terrace look down on the crowds and venture out for an evening stroll along Church Street to the famous Abbey steps, or down to Tate Sands, below the Abbey, where Dracula's ship was wrecked. When the bell rings go out with a drink to watch the bridge opening and the yachts going out to sea and the fisherman returning with their catch in the evening. If there's a better spot in Whitby to watch the world go by I've yet to find it and I've been visiting for over 50 years!
A light spacious flat with art work on the walls and a cosy dining/ living room. Sorry but not suitable for dogs, and as there are two flights of stairs into the flat unfortunately unsuitable for those with mobility problems. Young children will need supervision on the roof terrace. PLEASE NOTE AFTER TWO FIRES ON THE DECKING NO BBQ'S ARE PERMITTED !
You can see the view of the Swing Bridge from the roof terrace here:

The flat was absolutely brilliant, the area it’s in was brilliant for our stay, unloading the car was easy the rooms where bright and very clean and it had everything you could possible need for a short stay.The stairs going up to the flat are quite brutal ( I’ve got a bad knee ) but it was outweighed by the veranda over looking the estuary.Will definitely be staying again and cannot recommend enough Mr Barrett

Lovely base to explore Whitby

Perfect location, comfortable beds and furniture. Should make it clearer that no BBQs allowed on terrace before booking, or remove the pic of someone bbq'ing from images to avoid any misconceptions

Splendid location and a really nice flat

Perfect flat at any time of year

We've just enjoyed our third stay at this flat. It is just so relaxing and comfortable yet Whitby is on the doorstep - it's fabulous. It's so easy to pop in and out in between seeing the sights, which are all close by, or sit on the terrace for the best of both worlds. Great.

Weekend in Whitby

The location was perfect and the roof terrace was great. The photographs don’t do it justice. It has two large double rooms and everything you need. It’s quirky and full of character. Hopefully, we’ll visit again soon.
