Spring Bank Cottage

The Space
Ideal for self-catering breaks, you’ll be able to prepare and enjoy home cooked meals at Spring Bank. Designed by Peter Thompson of York, the kitchen has a whole host of appliances including a dishwasher, oven, microwave, toaster, kettle and fridge/freezer. The open plan space also includes the dining area. There is a rectangular table with four chairs so there is ample space for your whole party.

Spring Bank Cottage has a cosy, yet bright living room. It has a stylish look with light walls and two patterned chaise style sofas. Perfect for relaxing, you can turn on the TV to keep up with your favourite shows or get lost in a good book. In the colder months, retreat to the living room after a long day of exploring North Yorkshire and turn on the electric fire to enjoy a cosy night in with your loved ones.

Take the stairs up to the second floor and there are two bedrooms as well as the family bathroom. The first bedroom boasts a comfy, king size bed and the second has twin single beds. Both rooms have premium bedding and linens so you can enjoy your sleep at Spring Bank Cottage. The twin beds can be merged into a king upon request if this is more suitable for your stay.

The family bathroom is chic and clean. The modern wet room suite includes a spacious walk-in shower, wash basin and WC.

Neighborhood
Spring Bank Cottage sits on the West side of town, off Skinner Street which is popular with tourists. All of Whitby is within walking distance, with multiple cafes, restaurants and bars within a few hundred yards. The Magpie Cafe on the quayside is less than a ten-minute walk down through the quaint old Whitby ginnels, past multiple old fishermen's cottages. Straight up from Skinner street is Whitby West Cliff with views across the sea and access to the blue flag beach below.

Walk over the swing bridge which sits over the River Esk and you’ll find yourself on the East bank. Walk along Church Street and you’ll wind up at the East bank where you’ll find narrow medieval streets dotted with boutiques, pubs and fish restaurants. Climb the famous 199 steps up to the Church of Saint Mary. You can also discover the renowned ruined Whitby Abbey, which was the inspiration for Bram Stoker’s gothic novel ‘Dracula’.

Step outside of Whitby and you’ll uncover a haven of woodland and moorland. Whitby forms part of the North York Moors National Park so it’s the perfect place for long walks.
