Abbey Peep is a very clean, spacious apartment with everything you could want. Having a good parking space was very useful. The walk down to the Harbour only took about 10 minutes, though a bit longer going back uphill. There is so much to see and do in Whitby and also in the surrounding area. On two days we didn't go out in the car. One day we walked down to the railway station and got the steam train to Pickering. Another day we went on the open top bus round Whitby, which was very interesting. We walked up the 199 steps to Whitby Abbey. There are plenty of cafes, restaurants and independent shops in Whitby. We intend to return to Whitby next year and will be staying at Abbey Peep again.

Nice apartment that is in an Excellent location, is a Good size and Very Good value. Some slight niggles though as i feel it has been neglected over the years. The TV is old, tired and very slow, the knives and scissors need sharpening and the extractor fan in the kitchen could do with a new filter. Still a 9/10 though.
