Whitby Retreat is a fantastic modern property situated on the edge of Whitby on a new development. It benefits from three parking spaces and a lovely south facing garden, which is a beautiful place to sit and enjoy the sun. Perfectly positioned on the outskirts of Whitby, a short walk takes you into the town centre and all it has to offer or you can take a drive up onto the stunning North York Moors and bask in the beauty of this fantastic area with its stunning views and cycle and walking trails. There are also a number of walking and cycle trails close to the house to explore. Whatever you choose to do, you will be spoilt for choice and Whitby Retreat is the perfect base to begin your exploring.

With its contemporary furnishings and up to the minute bathroom and kitchen designs, you will thoroughly enjoy your time away from home. The detached property has lots of windows in most of its rooms, allowing loads of natural light to flood into the rooms. Enjoy making a meal in the well equipped kitchen then move through the separate dining room to eat, throwing open the French doors to let the air flow through, or if the weather is good, why not take it out through the patio doors and eat al fresco at the table and chairs in the enclosed south facing garden. Or you can snuggle up in the lounge to relax after a long day walking around the cobbled streets of Whitby taking in the sea air. With the added bonus of the snug for those who want to get away for some peace and quiet, read a book or just relax with a glass of wine.

The comfortable bedrooms with loads of storage and TV’s, and with the added luxury of an en-suite, will give you a wonderful night’s sleep to prepare you for more sightseeing. The overall comfort and quality of this property adds to your holiday experience.

This is an excellent spacious cottage in a good location, only 15 minutes walk downhill into Whitby. On arrival the cottage was very clean and welcoming with a well equipped kitchen which had everything we needed for a 4 night stay. All the bedrooms are spacious and comfortable. The lounge is also very spacious with lovely comfortable sofas. ThRead moree cottage also has the bonus of a safe and enclosed garden, ideal for our granddaughter to play in. I would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a place to stay in Whitby without being in the busy town centre. Hide
