Famous for its links to Bram Stoker’s ’Dracula’ novel, Whitby has a Gothic flavour with its abbey atop the famous 199 steps offering exhilarating views every way you turn from this natural vantage point, across the harbour and town, and into the countryside beyond. The ruins of the abbey stand proudly on top of the East Cliff headland above the busy seaside town of Whitby.
The old town has cobbled streets and independent shops galore, as well as a fantastic foodie scene with everything from award-winning fish and chips to gastro pubs, bistros and traditional pub fayre. There are plenty of tea rooms and coffee shops mixed amongst the ice cream parlours and pubs with live music all year round. Whitby plays host to many different festivals and events from the bi-annual Goth Weekend, music festivals, a regatta and popular Folk Festival, so keep an eye on the calendar of events.

Bosun’s Quarters was clean, well appointed and quiet. The amenities in the accommodation fully met our needs. The location was ideal for us. Not too close to the Town to be noisy and not too far out to walk of an evening.As the accommodation is on the 4 th floor It would be essential for some guests that the lift is always working.

Bosuns Quarters is a brilliant apartment in the conveniently located Whitehall Landing development. It had everything we needed for a great stay. Beautifully decorated and furnished and exceptionally clean with the added bonus of a lovely wide parking space. We would definitely stay again.

The apartment is less than a 15 minute fairly flat walk into Whitby and has the bonus of allocated parking and is a 5 minute drive from the local supermarkets so the location is ideal.The apartment itself is spotless and very well equipped, well furnished and we couldn’t fault it and would highly recommend the apartment.
