Due South

Summary

Due South in Boulby Bank Top, Whitby in North Yorkshire, offers magnificent self catering accommodation in a beautiful furnished apartment. We are just a short walking distance from the town, making us the perfect base from which to explore the local area.

Accommodation

Our charming apartment is ideal for a peaceful and relaxing holiday. Situated in the attic of the house, this charming space has low beam ceilings, giving it rustic charm. Sleeping up to 3 people in 2 rooms, the rooms consist of a spacious double bedroom and a single bedroom as well. There is also a bathroom which includes a power shower. Guests can make use of the fully fitted kitchen which comes with a range of excellent appliances: ceramic twin hob, combi microwave oven (microwave, convection oven and grill, not a standard oven), fridge (with small freezer compartment), toaster, sandwich maker, usual crokery and utensils and ironing board and iron.

The apartment has a cosy living room with dining table and 3 chairs, 2 comfy chairs and 1 double sofa. Doors open out onto a lovely balcony with iron bistro/balcony table with 2 chairs – ideal for a spot of al fresco dining. Guests can enjoy a range of entertainment facilities: TV/DVD player, freesat, CD player/radio and selection of DVD’s. Please note that the stairs are steep and narrow and so not ideal for people with mobility issues.

You will be able to park on the drive (one car only) and reach the accommodation via its own dedicated door.

Local Area

We are fortunate to be in a wonderful position to enjoy the local area. Whitby Museum in Pannet Park has the most extensive marine dinosaur fossil collection of its kind with intact dinosaur skeletons embedded in the walls and even a real dinosaur footptrint. They also run fossil hunts and local walks up and down the coast, see the Whitby Museum web site for event details. Entry is charged for non residents.

Pleasure Boat Trips in Whitby are plentiful and include Whitby's old Lifeboat - Mary Anne Hepworth, a replica of captain cooks HMS Bark Endeavour and three other pleasure craft by Whitby Coastal Cruises which include the high speed Velocity, the purpose built Esk Belle II which runs throughout the day and runs an evening cruise - it also has a bar on board! Finally the Speksioneer - a Dutch motor sailor.

Please see their relevant web sites for special events. All boats run throughout the summer and trips are surprisingly reasonably priced. All trips can be arranged and paid for by the harbour side. At the time of writing (Aug 2011) the Esk Belle II is available at £3 per person and under 5's go free. There are also many beaches to stroll on and harbour crabs can be caught readily in Whitby Harbour as well!
