About this property

Settled near the banks of the River Esk in Whitby, a bustling seaside town in North Yorkshire, you can find the charming, one-bedroom townhouse of 9 Salt Pan Well Steps.

A former fisherman’s cottage, with tasteful living areas set over three floors, this cosy home boasts superb positioning close to nearby shops, pubs, and a beach, making it an idyllic base for a couple seeking a romantic escape near the brilliant setting of the North York Moors National Park. On road parking is available close to your new home-from-home, step into a well-appointed, immaculate kitchen/diner, which features appliances you’ll need to prepare a delicious dinner for two. Head upstairs to relax in the sitting room as you catch up on the day’s events or start planning the rest of your holiday, take in the picturesque views out of the two large windows of the bustling harbour, swing bridge and townscape in one direction and the River Esk and North Yorks Moors in the other. Wake up to brilliant views again looking out upon Whitby Harbour and the moors before heading out to explore the town, wind down Salt Pan Wells steps to join the River Esk as it meets the harbour, within 10 minutes you will be in the centre of Whitby with all its delights. You’ll find plenty to do and see in Whitby, whether that’s snapping shots of notable landmarks such as the Larpool Viaduct or The Haggerlythe, ascending the 199 Steps to gain unparalleled views of the town and harbour, enjoying a tranquil stroll through Pannett Park and Whitby Museum, or even learning more about Bram Stoker’s iconic villain on a tour at the Dracula Experience. Your trip to Whitby would also be incomplete without a peaceful day spent upon the golden stretch of Whitby Beach, where you can sunbathe and enjoy an amble along West Pier or a stroll up to Whitby Harbour East Lighthouse. A short distance away the North York Moors National Park houses locales such as Mallyan Spout Waterfall and National Trust Nunnington Hall, both of which are well worth a visit. For the ultimate escape to North Yorkshire, look no further than 9 Salt Pan Well Steps.

The seaside town and port of Whitby lies at the mouth of the River Esk in the Scarborough district of North Yorkshire. Ideally situated for exploring this beautiful part of Yorkshire, the local area hosts an array of activities so you can be sure to get the best out of both the countryside and the coast. From the nearby North York Moors to its Blue Flag beaches, there's something here for everyone. Amongst its many attractions, Whitby holds a charming atmosphere, home to winding streets and hidden alleys, where you can find a wide selection of eateries and shops scattered amongst them. Take a trip to the picturesque harbour and lighthouse to watch the sun set or get involved in some whale watching or a coastal cruise to watch the creatures up close. Climb the famous 199 steps to the Whitby Abbey to immerse yourself with history, or visit the Captain Cook Memorial Museum presenting historical and ethnographic exhibition about Cook himself. Close to the Robin Hood's Bay, rich in heritage, wonders and scenic spots, and in easy reach of the bustling towns of Scarborough and Middlesbrough, Whitby is a prime location for exploring all of the delights that Yorkshire has to offer.
