The ancient fishing port of Whitby lies at the mouth of the River Esk and is ideally situated for exploring this beautiful part of Yorkshire with its superb coastline and the spectacular North York Moors. Whitby is a charming and atmospheric town of winding streets and hidden alleys, with a picturesque harbour, safe sandy beaches and of course the Abbey, reached by the famous 199 steps.
A superb, first floor apartment overlooking the harbour and swing bridge, in the heart of the ancient fishing town of Whitby. Part of an historic building, this lovely property, a wonderful alternative to the usual Yorkshire cottages, has been modernised and refurbished in a contemporary style, with high ceilings and large windows in the spacious sitting room, opening directly over the harbour and providing fantastic views. Comfortable and stylish, with a French-inspired double bedroom and equally luxurious twin room, the quality of accommodation ensures that guests will be delighted with their stay. The apartment is ideally situated for exploring the quaint, cobbled streets, experiencing the numerous restaurants and tea rooms or relaxing on the long, sandy beaches. Discover the spectacular scenery of the North York Moors or explore the pretty, coastal villages such as Robin Hood's Bay, all within very easy reach.

Previous visitors' comments about Swing Bridge View:
Very straightforward to book. The owner met us straight away and was very welcoming, showing us around the property and explaining everything. It was in an amazing location, right on the river front in the centre of Whitby. Large windows with views straight on to the river. Great to just sit and watch the bridge opening and the boats going by. A lovely spacious property, probably one of the nicest we have stayed in, warm and fully equipped. Will definitely be returning!

The property of course is in a prime location in Whitby. It's comfortable and over looking the river. There is plenty to do and see without going out of town. All restaurants we visited were very good, 7 in all. Whitby is close to the Moors and places of interest are easily accessible by car.
The owner of the property was most helpful and nothing was too much trouble for her and could be contacted at any time. We paid £35 for one week's parking from Scarborough Tourist Info. This included many long stay car parks around Scarborough. Thank you Sykes Holiday Cottages, for an easy booking system.
