The kitchen is well equipped - there is a microwave, toaster, kettle, oven, fridge and washing machine so you’ll have everything you need for your self-catering break by the sea. The open plan dining and living area is eclectic and quirky. You can enjoy meals at the cosy dining table, which features transparent Perspex dining chairs.

Neighbourhood information

Set on the West side of Whitby, The Funky Robin is just a short 10-minute walk into the centre of town. Head to Pier Road and you’ll find cosy pubs, fun arcades and plenty of fish restaurants. Continue along the lively road until you reach the beautiful, blue flag West Cliff Beach which is lined with idyllic beach huts. At the other end of Pier Road, you’ll notice the swing bridge which sits over the River Esk. Over the bridge, you’ll find yourself on the East bank which is full of narrow medieval streets dotted with boutiques, pubs and fish restaurants. Climb the famous 199 steps up to the Church of Saint Mary. You can also discover the renowned ruined Whitby Abbey, which was the inspiration for Bram Stoker’s gothic novel ‘Dracula’. Step outside of Whitby and you’ll uncover a haven of woodland and moorland. Whitby forms part of the North York Moors National Park so it’s the perfect place for long walks.
