Sanderling is a ground-floor apartment in the heart of Whitby, North Yorkshire. It sleeps four and sits within easy walking distance of the town centre, the harbour and Whitby's famous beaches. Secure underground parking is included, a genuinely rare find this close to Whitby's centre.

Whitby sits where the River Esk meets the North Sea. You can walk the harbour, take a boat trip from the marina, eat fish and chips on the promenade or watch donkeys on the sand. The gothic ruins of Whitby Abbey loom above the town. It's a proper seaside town with real character.

The apartment has two bedrooms sleeping four. The king bedroom has patio doors opening onto a private enclosed courtyard. The twin bedroom is notably quiet despite the central location.
