From your window, you can watch boats bobbing in the harbour and take in the sight of the iconic Whitby Abbey perched on the headland. Once owned by a prominent shipbuilding family, this beautiful building is steeped in maritime history. Even today, you can see boat construction taking place in the harbour, where daily boat and fishing trips still depart. Just a short 10-minute scenic stroll along the harbour takes you into the heart of Whitby, where you’ll pass traditional pubs and fish and chip shops, immersing you in the town’s authentic charm. With all of Whitby’s attractions within easy reach and the convenience of your own private parking bay, Driftwood at Whitehall is the perfect choice for anyone seeking a genuine Whitby experience.
Entering through the grand external staircase and pillared front entrance, you are welcomed into a communal entrance hall where you can learn about the building’s rich history and its transformation into beautiful apartments. Period furniture pieces add to the ambience, offering a glimpse into Whitehall’s storied past.
Inside the apartment, the open-plan living area is a highlight, featuring a dining table perfectly positioned to make the most of the incredible views. Whether you’re enjoying a meal or simply watching the world pass by, the scenery is captivating. The kitchen is well-equipped with integrated units, ideal for preparing home-cooked meals if you prefer a cosy night in, perhaps featuring fresh locally caught seafood.
Driftwood at Whitehall has two bedrooms, both thoughtfully furnished to ensure your comfort. The master bedroom features a plush double bed, while the second bedroom has twin beds, making it perfect for families or friends. The apartment is complete with a bathroom that includes a shower over the bath.
Whitby itself is a treasure trove of attractions. Explore the sandy beaches, wander through the cobbled streets of the old town, and climb the famous 199 steps to reach the historic Whitby Abbey. The town is rich in history, with landmarks like the whalebone archway, ghost walks, and fascinating museums. You’ll find an array of cafes, bars, and restaurants to choose from, many of which are dog-friendly, just like Driftwood at Whitehall. This area is a haven for walkers, with scenic trails and many pet-friendly beaches, making it the perfect destination for you and your well-loved dog to enjoy together.
