About this property

Freshwater View is a stylish apartment boasting an open plan kitchen, living and dining area, two bedrooms and a family bathroom. Sleeping up to four guests, it is perfect for family staycations by the sea or coastal getaways with friends.

The open plan living space includes matching sofas and a flat screen TV so it’s ideal for unwinding with your loved ones during your stay.

Both bedrooms in the apartment have comfortable super king beds with crisp linens and plush bedding to ensure you have the best sleep possible. Pops of colour are added with the mustard and royal blue soft furnishings to give a really luxe finish. Both super king beds can be split into two singles if this would be more suitable for your stay.

Modern and clean, the family bathroom features a walk-in shower, WC and basin.

The area

Freshwater View sits along the River Esk in the dock area.

Walk along Church Street and you’ll wind up at the East bank where you’ll find narrow medieval streets dotted with boutiques, pubs and fish restaurants. Climb the famous 199 steps up to the Church of Saint Mary. You can also discover the renowned ruined Whitby Abbey, which was the inspiration for Bram Stoker’s gothic novel ‘Dracula’.

Walk over the swing bridge which sits over the River Esk and you’ll find yourself at the West side of town. It’s here you can discover cosy pubs, fun arcades and even more fish restaurants! Continue along the lively road until you reach the beautiful, blue flag West Cliff Beach which is lined with idyllic beach huts.

Step outside of Whitby and you’ll uncover a haven of woodland and moorland. Whitby forms part of the North York Moors National Park so it’s the perfect place for long walks.

The centre of Whitby is a short ten-minute walk from Freshwater View.

Whitby train station is less than half a mile away so villages and towns along the North Yorkshire coast can easily be reached via rail. There’s also a taxi rank in close proximity to the train station.

There are plenty of bus routes throughout Whitby. Hop on the X4 and you can visit beautiful coastal villages like Sandsend, Runswick Bay and Staithes. The X93 travels along the coast to Scarborough. The 95 route features plenty of quaint villages, such as Grosmont and Lealholm.

“The apartment was absolutely gorgeous, so clean & nicely decorated! The location is perfect and me and my grandma had the most amazing time here”

“Had a fantastic stay, beautiful quiet location, nice walk into town (10 minutes ) parking space a bonus, apartment was modern and clean with great views of the river. Best chippy ever just down the road ( riverside fisheries ) blackout blinds were useful as the path outside the bedroom riverside is a brightly lit walkway. All in all loved the place and would definitely return.”

“I booked this place for a short break for my husband and his brother. It was in a great location, right by the river and a fantastic price. Plus had two great sized separate bedrooms. They found the place easily and parking was fine, there is a dedicated space for one car. Rooms were very good and looked like the listing. Very clean and well presented. Bathroom had all the usual stuff and towels were provided. Toiletries also. They ate out so didn't use the kitchen but it had all the equipment you'd need for a holiday. Great views and easy to walk to town and to access other walks etc. Fantastic location!”
