About this property
This well-presented apartment rests on the first floor on the banks of the River Esk, in the fascinating seaside town of Whitby in North Yorkshire. Offering immaculate accommodation for up to six people, this is a perfect getaway for friends, family and couples alike. Take the stairs or the lift up to this holiday home and be welcomed by the refreshing interior. Straight ahead sits an uplifting dual-aspect living/dining room - if nothing on the TV takes your fancy, enjoy the splendid views of the River Esk from the window seats and juliet balcony, and watch the steam trains across the river as they pass-by.
Adjacent to this is a compact yet well-equipped kitchen, which also offers a lovely little breakfast table where you can sip your morning coffee before the activity-packed day begins. The three bedrooms range conveniently from a cosy bunk room to an immaculate twin and a master double bedroom benefiting from a stunning, black and white en-suite shower room. The family bathroom is similarly furnished, instead boasting a bath with an optional shower over it. A soothing stroll along the River Esk takes you into the heart of fabulous Whitby, a seaside town abounding in fine amenities and facilities, as well as a number of attractions including the Captain Cook Memorial Museum, the striking Whitby Abbey and a glorious stretch of sandy beach.
This town is bordered by the North York Moors National Park, a magnificent landscape boasting undulating countryside with outdoor opportunities aplenty. A smart apartment making for an excellent base for discovering Whitby and the area.

Fantastic! Modern, warm, comfortable and spacious with everything you could possibly need supplied. Whitby is a great place to visit and Sandy Bottoms is conveniently located for everything, the parking being an added bonus along with a lift. We will certainly be back
