Lovely and beautiful apartment, very clean and well decorated. Amazing to have such a big and well equipped kitchen when you cant dine out (we were travelling with a baby). Perhaps better suited for two couples than for a family but we managed. Only problem we had was with the parking spot - someone else was in it one day and we couldnt reach the hRead moreost at all (tried calling, emailing, several times). Also our hubcabs were stolen from the car :( Whitby is however lovely, its just a good walk to the city centre and the closest fish & chips shop is THE best ever. Hide
