Description Above the Rooftops: Whitby

Looking out over the chimneys of the seaside town, this modern apartment in Whitby's historic Flowergate district is one we love for its stylish, contemporary interiors, enlivened by just a touch of colour. Relax in the light-filled living area before cooking a feast from fresh, local seafood in the sleek kitchen. Inviting suede sofas are great for a morning coffee while planning your day's adventures – you'll find your central location is ideal for discovering the charming town on foot. The bustling harbour is just minutes away, where there are trendy waterfront restaurants and bars, and you can take a stroll past the colourful huts on Whitby Beach. Literature lovers will enjoy exploring the gothic ruins of Whitby Abbey which served as inspiration for Bram Stoker's Dracula, and counting the famous 199 steps that lead up to it.
