Abbey View Villas - Lapwing

About this property

Situated in a handsome Victorian terrace that’s split into similar apartments, this first-floor abode provides an exceptional place to stay for any two guests. Despite its heritage surroundings, the holiday home has been updated to a contemporary standard, complete with a bespoke fitted kitchen and a mid-century décor that’s ultra-stylish. Super accommodating, the place also welcomes an additional two guests on a sofa bed and a dog if you wish! Find the ever-charming Yorkshire town of Whitby on your doorstep, with the beach less than half a mile away and the other attractions within a similar distance.

Head up to the first floor and step inside, feeling instantly at home amongst parquet flooring and bay windows in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. The kitchen has been integrated with chefs in mind, offering plenty of counter space to rustle up something delicious. Sit down together at the dining table by the window and enjoy a view of Whitby Abbey before retiring to the sofa. All the while, you can fill your space with noise from the Smart TV or the Bluetooth speaker. As the days draw to a close, find the king-size bedroom with its modern en-suite just along the hallway.

Fantastically central to Whitby, you’ll find the town’s train station just half a mile away and plenty of fine dining restaurants and independent shops in the vicinity. The town’s must-visits include Pannet Park with its local museum, the Captain Cook Memorial Museum and the impressive 199 Steps leading up to the scenic abbey (all within 1 mile). For day trips, venture along the coast to Robin Hood’s Bay (5.5 miles), a scenic seaside village with beautiful scenery, or along to Scarborough (20 miles) for traditional seaside delights.
