The area

Sandcastles Apartment is located on the West Cliff on Royal Crescent so you’ll be right on the doorstep of the Blue Flag West Cliff beach and promenade which is just a short stroll from the apartment. On Pier Road, you’ll find fun arcades and plenty of fish restaurants where you can sample the catch of the day.

The other side of Whitby is full of narrow, mediaeval streets dotted with boutiques and pubs. 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’.

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.

Sandcastles Apartment is located in a prime location and the centre of Whitby so the town can easily be explored on foot.

Whitby train station is just a short 15-minute walk 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.

“Sandcastles Apartment - Whitby Positive: Apartment spotlessly clean. Towels, Beds and bedding good quality and spotlessly clean. Great views of the bay. 3rd floor apartment but lift available so not a problem for us Charlie the host kept us regularly informed before and during our stay.... Overall a fantastic stay. When i stay in Whitby again i will check this accom for availability ... we are pretty fussy about cleanliness etc so i cant think of a better compliment Negative: Difficult to find as the actual name above the door bears no resemblance to our flat name. Fortunaly a lovely lady from the hist and stay team shiwed ys to our apartment....she was amazing!! No shelf or soap dish in the shower meaning razors and any products had to be put on the floor - this would only take a few quid to sort and would make such a difference. Both windows ...bedroom and lounge ...were difficult to open.”
