A wealth of heritage sites, cobbled streets, boutiques and fine-dining venues make Whitby perfect for a grown-up getaway, and this beautiful bolthole – located on bustling Baxtergate – puts you close to all. For peaceful contrast, wander uphill to pretty Pannett Park, follow the river to the harbour entrance where the high piers are perfect for a romantic evening stroll or get your toes wet on West Beach. Test your stamina with a hike along the Cleveland Way which runs all along this coastline, or tackle the challenging climb up to St Mary’s Church and, even higher on the headland, the remains of Whitby Abbey. For effortless exploration further afield, take a train into the North York Moors – the station’s less than 400 metres from your front door. A 5-mile drive south along the Heritage Coastline will lead to Robin Hood’s Bay, where quaint cottages spill down from the clifftop to a sandy foreshore. Head 3 miles north instead and Sandsend is a gorgeous seaside village with a long stretch of beach.
No expense was spared in the restoration of this former Georgian townhouse, so expect to be impressed from the moment you step through the front door. Striking flooring and statement furnishings add the wow-factor throughout, while in the sumptuous open-plan living space, large Chesterfield sofas and a 90 inch Smart TV suggest companionable evenings at home. There’s a fine choice of dining and take-away options on the doorstep, but if you’d prefer home-cooked fare, the kitchen – complete with quartz counters and a central island – has all the essentials of home, and the chic dining suite is expansive. When it’s time for bed, an artwork-lined hallway leads to two dreamy bedrooms – a king-size and a double. The former has its own en-suite shower room, and a stylish second shower room completes the accommodation.
The building’s original facade is complemented by a stone terrace with wrought-iron railings, creating a pleasant outdoor space for al fresco drinks while people-watching.
