About this property

Oystercatcher

  • Oystercatcher is a fantastically furnished first floor single bedroom apartment located in the charming East Yorkshire town of Whitby. The coastal town provides the perfect place for guests in all seasons.

    The apartment is furnished to the highest standard throughout, being both comfortable and stylish with modern and homely fixtures and fittings.

    The open plan kitchen, dining and living area with bay window is spacious and bright and is fully equipped for all self-catering stays, with a fridge, oven, hob, toaster, kettle, microwave and coffee machine. The lounge has a smart TV and fast fibre WiFi is available throughout. With tall ceilings and light flooding in the from the large window, it is a sunny and welcoming space. There is a nautical theme to the decor and the fireplace provides a great focal point for the room as well as offering plenty of heat for cosy winter nights in.

    The comfy king-sized bed boasts premium bedding and linen so you can really enjoy your sleep during your stay, while the characterful fireplace adds some charm to the room. There is plenty of storage and hanging space.

    Oystercatcher Apartment is located one street back from Whitby’s bars and restaurants in one direction and the famous Whitby Whalebone Arch in the other making it a quiet but yet perfectly placed property to experience the local area.

    Whitby is an ancient port with a ruined abbey, which was the inspiration for Bram Stoker’s gothic novel ‘Dracula’ while the port is still a working fishing harbour. It also has sandy beaches, donkey rides and rock pools, not to mention some of the best fish and chips in the world. Its narrow medieval streets are dotted with boutiques, shops, pubs and fish restaurants.

    The cobbled Church Street takes you to the foot of the famous 199 steps leading from the town to St Mary’s Church and the Abbey Headland and Visitor Centre. The Whalebone Arch and bronze statue commemorating Whitby’s most famous explorer, Captain James Cook, stand proudly on the West Cliff, facing directly across the harbour to the Abbey.

    Whitby forms part of the North York Moors National Park and is the perfect location for keen walkers. The Moors are a special place, where history and nature have combined to give us an amazingly vibrant landscape with woodland and moorland, rich in heritage and wildlife.

    While staying in Whitby a visit to the coastal town of Robin Hood’s Bay is recommended, a picturesque old fishing village on the Heritage Coast of the North York Moors with narrow, twisting cobbled streets and alleyways.

Super apartment in Whitby centre.

The apartment is in an excellent position, immaculately clean with modern fittings and tasteful furnishings. All the basics were provided: milk, tea, coffee, sugar, s&p and even a selection of snacks and sweets, as well as kitchen and cleaning equipment. We really had a lovely stay. Thank you

Comfy, clean and convenient.

The apartment is conveniently positioned for access into Whitby. Comfortable, clean, quiet and with pretty much everything needed for a pleasant stay. Silver St carpark is a very short distance away. Constructive comment… the communal stairway is ready for a “lick of paint” and carpet clean.

Oystercatcher, Whitby is perfect for a couple.

We loved everything about the apartment and the location is perfect. We spent 2 weeks there and it really felt like home to us - so far from our Australian home!! Whitby has so much to do and the regatta was an added bonus! Have sent the link for Oystercatcher Apartment to our friends!

I absolutely loved my stay at Oystercatcher.

The apartment is so cosy and welcoming and Mel went above and beyond: from helping me upon arrival, to the tasty treats left for guests to enjoy, as well as being so accommodating around my arrival and departure times. The property has everything you need, is homely, beautifully decorated and maintained, and is brilliantly located. It was so quiet and comfortable. I fell in love with Whitby and would love to stay at Oystercatcher again in the future.

Property was easy to find and in a good location within walking distance to everything in Whitby but

The mattress is quite hard but personal preference, my partner thought it was really uncomfy but I Ioved it. It was really clean and the added little extras like milk and biscuits was such a lovely treat when we arrived after a 3 hour drive, great value for money and we would definitely stay here again!

Very quiet spot, close to all amenities, stairs to apartment are a little steep so that should be fa

Perfect peaceful location away from the hustle of the town, which is quite busy. Very spacious and clean, good layout, light and airy Nothing really to dislike, the only downside is the parking isn’t cheap and there aren’t many spaces.

Nice comfortable apartment

We spent a very enjoyable few days in Oystercatcher. The property is faultless, extremely clean and very well appointed with everything that you could possibly need. It is set in a quiet area the only downside is that there isn't a view but that wasn't a problem for us. The bed was extremely comfortable and the flat nice and warm. All in all it met and probably exceeded our expectations.

We felt very comfortable and would come back anytime.

The apartment is located in a quiet side street slightly above the town center and the harbor of Whitby. Shops and pubs are about a 5-minute walk away, and the sea can be reached in about 10 minutes. The apartment is very cozily furnished, with a well-equipped kitchen, spotlessly clean, and just like in the photos. You can park at a reasonable price (pay and display) about 50 meters from the house. We felt very comfortable and would come back anytime.
