As well as boasting a private parking space, it is perfect for those who want to explore the sights and sounds of Whitby and escape into the heart of the North York Moors National Park. The apartment is just a short walk from the centre of this enchanting fishing town, with the majestic Whitby abbey overlooking the town, the inspiration behind the gothic tale ‘Dracula’. Enjoy exhilarating views every way you turn from this natural vantage point, across the harbour and town, and into the countryside beyond. The ruins of the abbey have stood proudly on top of the East Cliff headland above the busy seaside town of Whitby since 655AD. If you are feeling energetic, climb the 199 steps up from the town. These were the steps that Bram Stoker’s mysterious creature bounded up after it leapt to shore from the deserted ship. Whitby has so much to offer, from a trip out to sea for a spot of fishing or dolphin spotting, to a stroll around the cobbled 1800s back streets and its myriad of shops, markets, restaurants and bars. Whitby has so much to offer, and keep an eye out for the many different festivals and events that happen each year in Whitby, including the famous Goth weekend, Whitby Regatta, a Christmas festival and the Bram Stoker film festival. If you’re a beach lover, then there’s also 2 miles of unspoilt beach to discover, stretching along some of the Yorkshire Heritage Coast. Whitby is also a perfect base to explore the North York Moors National Park. A short drive away is the spectacular Falling Foss Waterfall and circular walk, or there are hundreds of public footpaths stretching out across this stunning part of the world. Whitby is situated on the Yorkshire Heritage Coast - ideal for hikers and cyclists who can make the most of the nearby Cleveland Way and National Cycling Network. Take a steam train ride into ‘Heartbeat’ country, steaming its way into the picturesque villages of Goathland (Aidensfield from the Heartbeat TV programme) and Grosmont, or explore the coast and the hidden smugglers coves of Robin Hood’s Bay and Staithes, to name just a few of the hidden coastal gems right on your doorstep. The traditional, seaside resort of Scarborough is just 30-minute drive away, or for thrill seekers, take a trip to Flamingo Land. The medieval walled city of York is just an hour away, where you can spend the day strolling along the wall before dropping inside one of the many restaurants for a bite to eat or a spot of shopping. Beach 1 mile. Shop ½ mile, pub and restaurant 545 yards. Free WiFi
