Edward and Harry Clark
Stoker's Retreat is a 2 bedroomed flat ideally positioned on the West Cliff in Whitby, just a 5-10 min walk to the town centre, cafes, restaurants, shops and pubs and a short stroll to the beach. Ideal to use as a base to explore Whitby and owned by a distant relative of Bram Stoker, author of Dracula. This light and spacious flat is set across 2 floors in a period terrace house. A bright, contemporary kitchen flows into an open-plan lounge-diner. The modern family bathroom features a spa bath.
Hello, We are Edward and Harry Clark and we own Stoker's Retreat. The property belonged to our late father and he decided on the name as we are distantly related to Bram Stoker (the author of Dracula) and of course, because of his connections to Whitby. We live in Yorkshire and visit whenever work and family commitments allow. Whitby has a unique charm and character and there is always lots going on here! Best wishes, Edward and Harry Clark
