The property

The Look Out is a top-floor apartment in central Whitby, offering harbour views and a stay right in the heart of the town’s older historic streets.

Set within a Grade II listed Victorian building on Church Street, the apartment has plenty of character and makes the most of its top-floor position with views out across the harbour from the Velux windows. It is a good choice for couples or solo travellers wanting a central base with Whitby’s shops, restaurants, harbour and old town all within easy walking distance.

Inside, the apartment has a separate living room, a full kitchen with an induction hob, a shower room and one bedroom. The layout gives you everything you need for a comfortable stay, whether you are here for a weekend by the coast or a longer break exploring Whitby and the surrounding area.

Guests enter through a communal hallway and shared staircase, with the apartment reached by two flights of stairs. Once inside, it is an easy place to settle into, with thoughtful extras such as bedding, towels and a welcome pack of tea, coffee, milk and locally made biscuits.

The area

Church Street is one of Whitby’s most distinctive locations, known for its older buildings, cobbled streets and close connection to the harbour and East Cliff. Staying here puts you right in the middle of the town’s atmosphere, with independent shops, bars and restaurants just a short stroll away.

From the apartment, you can walk across the swing bridge, head to the beach, visit the Whale Bones or climb the 199 steps to Whitby Abbey and St Mary’s Church. Whitby’s harbour, cafes and fish and chip shops are all close at hand, making this an easy place to enjoy without needing to plan too much.

The train and bus station are just over the swing bridge and around a 10-minute walk away, so the apartment can also work well for guests arriving without a car.
