Our Church Hall property is on a quiet street in Whitby town centre on the West side of the harbour. This newly converted holiday home sleeps 9 people in 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, spacious open plan kitchen dining living space. Less than 5 minutes from the harbour, beach, pubs & shops is an ideal location. Please note there are 11 steps up from road level to this property which is all on one level (upper ground level). The property has a private patio space with outside seating perfect for families and groups of friends looking for a break on the coast. This property is pet free. We also have Secret Garden Hideaway dog friendly ( 2 well behaved dogs go free) on the same site next door. The property is open plan sleeps 5 plus a sofa bed, with large family bathroom with a jacuzzi bath/shower and double bed downstairs and twin beds with 1no single bed upstairs. Secret Garden has a large secure private garden for sole use by this property. Both properties are private and have their own private patio, seating areas and entrance doors. Both can be booked together for larger parties or separately. Within easy reach of Whitby town centre 100 yrds, Whitby beach/coastline, Scarborough, Sandsend, Staithes, Robin Hoods Bay and the North York Moors.
Ursula is a qualified Architect and a Reiki Master. Reiki/Crystal Healing, mediation and spiritual development classes are available from our Church Hall and Healing retreats, workshops and treatments are available for guests. We like to meet our guests & give them advice on the best fish & chips shops, bars and restaurants etc. Our guests are then left to their own devices, but we are always on hand & available by telephone if there are any problems.
We own the whole site here at Summer Hills a wonderful hidden garden to the top of the site only accessible by booking our adjacent property Secret Garden Hideaway (sleeps 5). Both properties are available to book together for larger groups of 14 people. There is also an option to camp for additional guests at an extra charge. Our Church Hall is straggled between St Hildas Terrace & Newton Street with gated secure access and steps up. Its very private and quiet for a central town location. We love that its walking distance to everywhere once you're out of our gate. Our Secret Garden Hideaway is accessed from a garden gate on St Hildas Terrace or our bottom entrance gate on Newton Street. Disabled access is only available from the disabled parking outside our garden gate on St Hildas Terrace to access the Secret Garden Hideaway property. All of Whitby’s many restaurants, cafes and bars are within easy walking distance. For the harbour and town centre turn left from our garden gate on to Newton Street and follow the road down turn left onto Brunswick to access Flowergate 100 yards & you're at the harbour & main swing bridge in the heart of Whitby. There is Pannett Park playground an excellent play area a short walk out of our entrance gates. The local Whitby visitor centre is very close for you to pop in and get help or advice on local events. The town is famous for its Festival weekends, Regatta Week and Folk weeks, not forgetting the hugely popular and fun ‘Goth’ weekends. The new Abbey visitor centre and the Captain Cook museum are a must for all visitors.
