A beautiful Georgian end-terraced house in the heart of the coastal town of Whitby, this property can sleep up to 12 people in spacious and elegant surroundings.

The five bedrooms are spacious, elegant and peaceful. One of the bedrooms has an en-suite shower, with a further bathroom and a ground floor shower room serving the property. A range cooker takes... pride of place in the fantastic dining kitchen and both sitting rooms boast a fireplace and offer comfortable and inviting living spaces. The whole property exudes character and charm and would make a marvellous base for a large family get together and to see this wonderful area.

Region: The North York Moors National Park covers 554 square miles, with landscape ranging from heather-clad moorland and deep secluded dales, to the cliffs and coves of the magnificent coastline making it a haven for walkers.

Town: The ancient fishing port of Whitby lies at the mouth of the River Esk and is well placed for exploring this beautiful part of Yorkshire’s stunning countryside and spectacular coastline. Whitby is a fascinating town with winding streets and alleyways waiting to be explored, the magnificent Abbey looks down onto the town and the long climb up the 199 steps is well worth the effort. The sandy beaches are safe and popular with families intent on seaside fun and games. Whitby has many other attractions but is also within easy reach of other coastal towns and villages as well as the glorious countryside of the North Yorkshire Moors and towns like Pickering and York. This town is a great base for a holiday in this wonderful part of Britain.Read more

  Plenty of space for all 9 of us, bright, airy, well maintained, and clean. Close to all amenities (good pub and amazing bakery/tearooms round the corner). 5 minutes walk from the beach, 3 minutes walk from lovely park and 2 minutes from the shops with plenty to keep everybody amused. Nice welcome from housekeepr and owner. Our visitors were very impressed by the house and have no hesitation in recommending this lovely house to friends and family.

  A perfect home for a family Christmas

  Left on 12/29/2011 for a stay in December 2011
  
  

  Wonderful setting, right in the heart of Whitby with breathtaking coastal walks. Also an easy drive into the Yorkshire Moors.
  
  A lovely house - cosy and warm, well equipped for everyone. The owners had thought about everything - from four bottle openers, to child's step for the sink!
  
  A perfect family home for relaxation, entertainment and the two living rooms which was ideal when some people wanted peace and quiet and others films, tv or games.

  Happy Christmas memories

  Left on 02/11/2010 for a stay in December 2009
  
  

  We spent Christmas in this wonderful Georgian house, which easily accommodated 7 adults and 4 children, with ages ranging from 2 to 93! It is centrally located just off the main shopping street in Whitby, and the accommodation is spacious, warm, very well-furnished and decorated. Two living rooms meant that television or the Wii could be accessed simultaneously. The kitchen was a bit of a squeeze for cooking and serving Christmas dinner but making sure everything we needed was out of the fridge-freezer and oven before people sat down at the table solved most problems! For a winter holiday the lack of outside space was not a problem and the beach is only a few minutes walk away. There is plenty to do in and around Whitby even in December. The children enjoyed the walk up to the abbey, playing on the beach and collecting pebbles and shells, and also spent an afternon pottery painting. Most shops were open and there was plenty of teashops to warm up in after a bracing walk. The snwy weather meant that we were unable to explre the surrounding area as much as we would have liked to but means that we have even more reasons to return to Roseberry House in the summer.
