Snaptrip says

White Horses is a well-received apartment in Whitby, consistently praised for its cleanliness, stunning views, and cosy comfort. Guests appreciate the thoughtful touches and the property's well-equipped nature, making it a favourite for many repeat visitors. While parking can be challenging, the location's charm and the apartment's amenities seem to more than compensate.

Guests that stayed at this property said

The apartment is repeatedly described as clean and well-presented, indicating a high standard of cleanliness that guests are very satisfied with.

The location is frequently highlighted for its great views and proximity to local attractions. Some guests mention the challenge of parking and the hilly terrain, but these are minor compared to the overall positive reception of the location.

Comfort is a strong point for this property, with guests finding it cosy, warm, and spacious. The presence of cosy blankets and a homely feel contributes to a high comfort level.

Facilities are generally praised, especially with recent upgrades like a dishwasher. However, several mentions of a shower needing an upgrade suggest there is room for improvement in this area.

Guests have noted the thoughtful touches such as games, a welcome pack, and even dog bowls. While these are appreciated, it is politely noted that such gifts are a kind gesture and may not be guaranteed for every stay.

About this property

Resting centrally in Whitby, North Yorkshire, is this converted Victorian apartment, White Horses. Located on the second floor, elevated views of the town are on offer, along with a well-located base, within proximity to local shops, eateries, attractions, the beach, and the North York Moors National Park, combining convenience and character for a family of four. Head upstairs, reaching your own private apartment door, before relaxing in the open-plan living space, with high ceilings, an ornamental fireplace, plush seating, and large bay windows with stunning views across the rooftops to Whitby Abbey, St Mary's Church, the marina, and the white horses of the sea beyond the harbour walls. Under the archway, you will find a lovely kitchen and dining area with a wooden table, and state-of-the-art fixtures, where you can prepare and enjoy meals as a group. The first bedroom of White Horses hosts full sized single bunkbeds intertwined with a touch of the seaside for a peaceful effect throughout, whilst the double bedroom breathes nothing less than elegance, well-matched and tied together by seaside features, flowing curtains and a glimpse of scenery. The apartment is complete with a spacious bathroom, perfect for refreshing in after a day of adventure. On your doorstep you’ll have plenty to see and do as a family, from dining out at The Marine Bar & Restaurant, or grabbing some British staples at Magpie Café, to touring Whitby Abbey, relaxing upon the beachfront, climbing the 199 steps for the best vantage point, or touring the Captain Cook Memorial Museum, full of history-rich artefacts and stories. Scarborough is a must-visit town to add to your itinerary, dotted with seaside attractions to entertain the entire family, including Scarborough Castle, SEA LIFE Scarborough, the stunning Italian Gardens, Alpamare UK waterpark, and Scarborough Open Air Theatre, hosting year-round events. Conclude your adventure by exploring the national park and its abundance of hot spots, including Mallyan Spout Waterfall, Hole of Horcum, and The Old Coastguard Station, offering the best of both the coast and country. Gather your loved ones with White Horses as your base.

At the mouth of the River Esk in North Yorkshire's Scarborough region sits the seaside town and port of Whitby. The area is perfectly positioned for visiting this stunning region of Yorkshire, and it offers a wide range of activities so you can make the most of both the countryside and the seaside. There is something for everyone in this area, from the adjacent North York Moors to its Blue Flag beaches. Among its many attractions, Whitby has a beautiful ambience with meandering streets and obscure alleys that are home to a variety of restaurants and businesses. Visit the charming harbour and lighthouse to watch the sun go down or go whale watching or on a coastal cruise to see the wildlife up close. To immerse yourself in history, ascend the 199 steps to Whitby Abbey or go to the Captain Cook Memorial Museum, which features a historical and anthropological display about Cook himself.
