Set high on the West Cliff, the Metropole looks out over Whitby’s sweeping golden beach, which can be reached by a zigzagging path leading down to the shore lined with colourful beach huts.

This enviable location places you close to the Whitby Pavilion, home to a vibrant calendar of events including the world-famous Goth Weekends, Steampunk gatherings, Northern Soul events, concerts, theatre and more. Whitby itself is alive with year-round festivals, themed weekends and seasonal celebrations. It’s easy to see why this remarkable coastal town, steeped in history and atmosphere, is often considered Britain’s best-loved seaside destination. Wander the cobbled streets, explore boutique shops, climb the famous 199 steps or visit the dramatic ruins of Whitby Abbey, said to have inspired Bram Stoker’s Dracula. From harbour boat trips to traditional fish and chips, Whitby offers something for every visitor.

Inside the apartment, Whitby Wishes provides a warm and comfortable retreat. The open-plan living area includes a well-equipped kitchen and a dining table for two, with a large, sumptuous sofa positioned in front of the fireplace featuring an electric stove. The sofa folds out into a double bed for additional guests. A door from the living space opens onto your own private balcony, complete with seating where you can enjoy morning coffee or an evening drink while taking in the sea views. The king-size bedroom offers plenty of storage with a wardrobe and drawers, while the bathroom features a bath with a shower over. For added convenience, especially during longer stays or after days at the beach, a washing machine is located in the hallway. Access to the apartment is via the grand original staircase or by lift, and the property is dog friendly. Many sections of Whitby’s beaches allow dogs year-round, making this an ideal base for guests travelling with a pet.

For keen walkers, the apartment’s clifftop location is perfect, with the Cleveland Way passing by. This spectacular coastal trail leads to the neighbouring villages of Robin Hood’s Bay, Runswick Bay and Staithes, each offering their own charm and stunning scenery. Whether you’re seeking relaxation, adventure, or a chance to immerse yourself in Whitby’s unique character and heritage, Whitby Wishes provides a memorable and welcoming place to stay.
