ONE UNION MILL - garden apartment

About this property

One Union Mill is a place with a story to tell. Set on the site of a beautifully cared-for former 19th-century mill, this ground-floor apartment blends character and ease in a way that feels instantly welcoming. It’s a great fit for friends or families who want Whitby’s harbourside buzz close at hand, while still enjoying a calm, tucked-away spot to return to at the end of the day. Enter into the open-plan living space, which invites you to slow down and settle in. The kitchen is neatly arranged for everything from tasty breakfasts to hearty evening meals, flowing naturally into a dining area made for shared conversations and plans for tomorrow.

Nearby, the sitting area offers a comfortable place to put your feet up, with the Smart TV ready for a film night after a day outdoors. Sleeping space is thoughtfully laid out, giving everyone their own corner of calm. The king-size bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, while the second double bedroom is equally pleasant and well-proportioned. A family bathroom with a bath rounds things off nicely, ideal for a long soak after coastal walks or moorland rambles. Outside, your private enclosed garden adds an extra layer of enjoyment, whether that’s a quiet coffee in the morning air or a glass of something chilled as the evening draws in.

Allocated parking keeps things simple, and with public transport stopping right outside, exploring the coastline and nearby villages is wonderfully straightforward. Whitby itself is a joy to explore, with its dramatic abbey ruins watching over the town, winding streets full of independent shops, and the fascinating Captain Cook Memorial Museum charting the town’s seafaring past. Steam trains on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway offer a nostalgic way to travel through heather-clad landscapes, while Scarborough brings seaside gardens, a clifftop castle and family attractions to the mix. Beyond the towns, the North York Moors National Park opens out into wide skies, quiet trails and unforgettable viewpoints.

One Union Mill offers more than just a place to stay, it’s a characterful base that lets you experience the best of Whitby and the surrounding coast at your own pace.

The seaside town and port of Whitby lies at the mouth of the River Esk in the Scarborough district of North Yorkshire. Ideally situated for exploring this beautiful part of Yorkshire, the local area hosts an array of activities so you can be sure to get the best out of both the countryside and the coast. From the nearby North York Moors to its Blue Flag beaches, there's something here for everyone. Amongst its many attractions, Whitby holds a charming atmosphere, home to winding streets and hidden alleys, where you can find a wide selection of eateries and shops scattered amongst them. Take a trip to the picturesque harbour and lighthouse to watch the sun set or get involved in some whale watching or a coastal cruise to watch the creatures up close. Climb the famous 199 steps to the Whitby Abbey to immerse yourself with history, or visit the Captain Cook Memorial Museum presenting historical and ethnographic exhibition about Cook himself. Close to the Robin Hood's Bay, rich in heritage, wonders and scenic spots, and in easy reach of the bustling towns of Scarborough and Middlesbrough, Whitby is a prime location for exploring all of the delights that Yorkshire has to offer.
