Head through to the kitchen to find everything you need to help you cater for the party using the Yorkshire produce you have bought in Whitby. Call everyone to the table in the main room when the meal is ready. When it is time to lay your head on your pillow, amble through to one of the two bedrooms.

Very comfortable spacious apartment. Lots of thought put into the 'little things' to make life easier while away. No hesitation in recommending.this apartment. Make sure car permit used immediately to avoid parking fine!! Couldn't find faults at all.

The house itself was a lovely place and well kept. No scratch card for parking supplied. Key pad was about 4 " of the ground and was difficult to use. Got a parking ticket on our first day. Could not put the centrel heating on as it was set as Summer time in September. Had to call the booking agent a few times who were brilliant one time when we were locked out as we couldn't open the key safe. I think the parking situation in Whitby is horrendous. Not your fault but could make aware to avoid getting a ticket.
