Summary: There’s always something special about staying somewhere new to you. And when that somewhere has been recently refurbished to a luxury standard, like this 2 bed Whitby apartment, the experience is all the more memorable. Whether you’re visiting with family or friends, this North Yorkshire home-from-home is as warm and welcoming as the locals you’ll meet during your stay. The Space: Park View is a newly converted, ground floor apartment located within a charming Victorian house. Situated just minutes from the centre of Whitby, the holiday home has everything you could want for a stay on the North Yorkshire coast. There will be a tablet waiting for you when you arrive, featuring information about the local area and the property – so tap away! The quality of the refurbishment is especially evident in the open plan living room, kitchen and dining area. In here you’ll find two comfy sofas which provide that home from-home feeling you just can’t get in a hotel. Kick off your shoes and relax. From the large window, you have a wonderful view of the park (the perfect inspiration for our property name). Turn on the wall-mounted cable TV and you’ll have a wide selection of channels to choose from. Fancy something to eat, or maybe a brew (Yorkshire Tea of course)? The modern kitchen shares this open space, so there isn’t far to go when you need to grab a snack or prepare a meal. Appliances aplenty are found in here, including a dishwasher as nobody needs to be washing-up during their holiday! When you need to get ready to go out or head off to bed, the apartments modern bathroom suite has a standalone shower plus a brand-new wash basin and WC. When sleep calls, both bedrooms offer luxuriously relaxing surroundings, each with a double bed (one of which is a zip and link that can be configured as 2 single beds if you prefer). In one of the bedrooms, there’s direct access to the sought-after patio space at the rear of the property. Here you can soak up the peace and quiet, enjoy a morning coffee or a late afternoon glass of something bubbly. Host & Stay are committed to our owners that their homes are protected during bookings.

The Neighborhood: Many guests have commented on just how close the apartment is to the centre of Whitby, and Whitby Harbour. It is just a short walk away, so it’s ideal if you want to experience what life is like living by the sea. The area is famous for the quality of its fish and chip restaurants, and there are plenty of places where you can sink your teeth into a fresh catch. When you fancy a drink, you’ll find a variety of bars as well as pubs and shops in the local area. Whitby is also famous for Bram Stoker’s gothic novel ‘Dracula’. You’ll find plenty of sites near the apartment with historic interest relating to the story. The main inspiration can be found at the renowned ruined Whitby Abbey. Other places close by that are well worth a visit include Flowergate and Pannet Park (which can be seen from the apartment). Step outside of Whitby and you’ll uncover a haven of woodland and moorland. Whitby forms part of the North York Moors National Park so it’s the perfect place for long walks. Getting Around: There is free on-street parking at the front and around the side of the apartment, but you don’t need to have a car to enjoy staying here as it’s such a short walk to the town centre, Whitby harbour and to the train station. Villages and towns along the North Yorkshire coast can easily be reached via rail. There’s also a taxi rank in close proximity to the train station. There are plenty of bus routes throughout Whitby. Hop on the X4 and you can visit beautiful coastal villages like Sandsend, Runswick Bay and Staithes. The X93 travels along the coast to Scarborough. The 95 route features plenty of quaint villages, such as Grosmont and Lealholm. Other Things to Note: We welcome 1 small, well behaved dog.
