Whitby has long been a holiday destination and this home is in an excellent location for exploring. It's only a five-minute stroll to the long expanse of Whitby Beach and the cliff promenade, and on low tide, you can walk all the way over to Sandsend. Famous for Bram Stoker's Dracula, the town is full of Gothic and slightly spooky sights. There’s nothing spooky about this house though. A wood-burning stove crackles away right in the centre of the open kitchen and dining room, keeping monsters at bay and both rooms toasty warm. If you don’t want to fiddle with firelighters, gather the family around the electric fire in the lounge instead. Outside you’ll find plenty of wood for the stove in the wood store, and the private garden has a dining terrace with French doors leading straight to the kitchen.
