“What stands out is the self-catering setup, which gives real flexibility to families or small groups. The location puts you within a short walk of Whitby Beach, yet the apartments themselves promise a modern, self-contained comfort. While breakfast isn't served on-site, popping over to their nearby guest house for a traditional English start sounds like a fine way to begin the day.”
