The Moorings is a comfortable spacious townhouse in the centre of Whitby which offers a great place to stay for large family or friends' get-togethers and celebratory weekends. the house has 6 double bedrooms (3 doubles and 3 twins) and 4 shower/bathrooms. a large kitchen/diner and 2 reception rooms with a Sky Sport/Entertainment package (via NOW TV). Directly opposite the property we are lucky enough to be able to offer 3 private parking spaces on our own land which is a major advantage for anyone wishing to park in the centre of the town. The house is situated in a quiet square whilst being only moments away from pubs, cafes and restaurants and a short 5 minute stroll down the town to the harbour and beach. At the rear of the house is a limestone paved patio garden with table, chairs, seating and barbecue - the perfect place to relax with a glass of wine throughout the Summer.
Whitby itself has much to offer with a delightful, quaint old town and harbour and a long, sandy beach reaching northwards to Sandsend. The town has lots of pubs, cafes and restaurants and many thriving independent shops (not forgetting the best fish & chip shops in the UK!). The North Yorkshire Moors National Park is close by as are the coastal villages of Robin Hoods' Bay, Sandsend, Staithes, Runswick Bay and you can hop on board the North Yorkshire Moors Steam Railway from Whitby Station.
Pannett Park is a beautiful local park in the centre of Whitby and just 5 minutes' walk from the house. Whitby Leisure Centre with its pool and fitness centre is also about a 5 minute stroll. Whitby Golf Course is less than a 10 minute drive away with Ganton Golf Course around a 50 minute drive. Whitby Pavilion on the cliff top 10 minutes' walk from the house presents shows and entertainment all year round as well as a cinema..
