Trip Details
The Space
Turnstones Apartment is a spacious and well-decorated two bedroom apartment. Boasting a bright open plan living and dining area, you’ll have plenty of space to relax after a day of exploring Whitby.
The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could need during your seaside staycation. Featuring an oven, hob, fridge, toaster, microwave, kettle, cookware, dishes and silverware, Turnstones has it all.
Head to the master bedroom and you’ll find a tranquil space. Enjoy your nights sleep in the luxury king size bed which boasts plush bedding and premium linens. The king size bed can also be split up to form a twin if this is more suitable for your stay. Beautifully styled, the walls are painted in a warming green colour, and the furnishings only add to the cosiness of the room.
The same can also be said for the second bedroom which once again has a comfy king-sized bed and homely furnishings. Once again, the king-sized bed can be split to form a twin.
Ideal for children or teenagers, both bedrooms have beds which can be split to create two singles if this suits the needs for your stay.
The family bathroom features a bath, shower, WC and basin.
Neighborhood
Many guests have commented on just how close the Caedmons Prospect apartment block is to the centre of Whitby, and Whitby Harbour. It is just a short walk away, so it’s ideal if you want to experience what life is like living by the sea.
The area is famous for the quality of its fish and chip restaurants, and there are plenty of places where you can sink your teeth into a fresh catch. When you fancy a drink, you’ll find a variety of bars as well as pubs and shops in the local area.
Whitby is also famous for Bram Stoker’s gothic novel ‘Dracula’. You’ll find plenty of sites near the apartment with historic interest relating to the story. The main inspiration can be found at the renowned ruined Whitby Abbey.
Other places close by that are well worth a visit include Flowergate and Pannett Park (which can be accessed directly opposite the Caedmons Prospect apartment block).
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.
Getting Around
There is free private parking with the apartment, but you don’t need to have a car to enjoy staying here as it’s such a short walk to the town centre, Whitby harbour and to the train station. Villages and towns along the North Yorkshire coast can easily be reached via rail. There’s also a taxi rank in close proximity to the train station.
There are plenty of bus routes throughout Whitby. Hop on the X4 and you can visit beautiful coastal villages like Sandsend, Runswick Bay and Staithes. The X93 travels along the coast to Scarborough. The 95 route features plenty of quaint villages, such as Grosmont and Lealholm.

Apartment was spacious and immaculate, tea, coffee, sugar and milk sachets were provided. Beds were extremely comfortable. Ideal location, not directly in the centre, but just far enough away there was no hussle and bussle, around a 5min walk. Would recommend 100% There was nothing to not like!

Great location near Pannet Park, a short walk from the centre. Modern apartment with lovely open plan kitchen diner. Underground parking for one car very useful. Outdoor terrace, would have been great on a sunny day. Mattresses very uncomfortable, and in my view needed replacing. My friend really struggled to sleep on hers. Bathrooms were a bit worn looking. Also had to pay a security deposit before arrival, together with admin fee, which had not been clear enough when I booked. Hosts failed to respond to a question I had about parking for a second car, although they were accessible by phone. Unsure whether I’d stay again

Good location for accessing Whitby and a good apartment and our overall experience was fine. It wasn't immediately obvious this is an external agency advertising on airbnb so we had to pay an additional damage waiver on top of the very high cleaning fee so we wouldn't use this host again. We made a last minute decision to have a weekend away and so didn't read the listing in enough detail as the above is stated. If you are happy with the additional costs the apartment was nice.

The apartment was well appointed and in a great location. It just missed some of the homely touches of other places. No milk in the fridge, no washing up liquid, no welcoming touches at all. We enjoyed the stay however.

This is one of the best apartments we have stayed at in Whitby. We have stayed in a lot of places over the years and this has everything. The only downside was that the mattresses are a bit on the cheap side so were not very comfortable

Great location close to everything. Roomy apartment with lovely outside area. Linens did not have a scent which was appreciated by those of us with allergies and sensitive skin. Had some difficulties with keys for front building entrance and patio doors. Toilet paper, paper towel, dish soap, and towels provided could have been more generous. Kitchen was fine for our needs and we cooked at least 2 meals a day for each of five day stay. Loved the park and museum across the street, and Trencher's fish and chips just a short walk away. Were able to find everything we needed for our cooking needs at the Co-op store down the street. Overall, a wonderful stay in a lovely apartment.

It was simply amazing! The apartment, the host, the fast responses when contacting, the location, the little touches. Me and my family had the best time. The apartment was spotless, homely, and comforting. The modern decor was stunning. We created memories to last a lifetime. Thank you! There was nothing!

Lovely decorated apartment with plenty of room, went as 2 couples. In a previous review it says ventilation problem, both bathrooms end up with a lot of condensation, we did also struggle to get enough hot water to run a full bath. Constant messaging reminding you of departure time very over whelming, maybe because it is booked through a external agency. Overall this is a modern,clean,spacious and convenient apartment and would recommend.

Excellent. The flat was clean and tidy, tasteful and with everything we needed. Very clear instructions made for easy access to the car park and flat itself whilst also being flexible. The flat is modern and furnished to a high standard, making it comfortable, easy to live in, and with plenty of space and all the facilities you need for any length of stay. It's located in a very quiet, secure block opposite Pannett Park so you're close to somewhere for a coffee (the museum cafe), and a short walk (10 minutes) into Whitby itself. Communication with the host was quick and comprehensive, including a very helpful online guidebook.

Fantastic property the accommodation has everything you need along with all the information you need the beds are so comfortable the lounge area is really comfortable. Love everything about this property. Can’t say, I disliked anything, just a slight hiccup with host and stay in regards to paying damage fees, but it was soon resolved with very helpful and friendly staff

The apartment is spacious and equipped to a high standard. We had loads of room with everything we needed for our stay - the bed was very comfortable too! Although a little out of the town (10 mins up a hill), we enjoyed the close proximity to the park and fab museum on our doorstep. It was great to have parking provided too. The bathrooms are internal with no windows, plus the ventilation system didn’t appear to work in either so these do feel a bit dank in comparison to the rest of the property with some black mould in the en-suite. We also arrived during the end of a big storm and the property was pretty chilly whenever we left for any period, but there is an easy to use heating system. Dealing with an external agency (and needing to hand over a significant, refundable deposit before our stay), plus all the extra reminder messages about checking in, out or leaving reviews on top of the same comms from Airbnb was a bit much, but overall we had a great stay!

The location was good. Size of apartment. Parking space. A layer of grease covered the whole of the kitchen and everything in it. The shower heads and flexible pipes were covered in black mould and gunk. One of the single beds in the 2nd bedroom springs had completely gone and so we had to sleep on top of a folded duvet. On arrival we found that the 2nd bedroom was made up at a kingsize instead of 2 singles as requested, though this was rectified quickly after a phone call and an email.

Great apartment with everything you could need and nicely decorated. Spacious layout for our family of four. The apartment block was safe and well maintained. Great walkable location within Whitby - through Pannett Park to the centre which was a gorgeous route. The outdoor terrace got the sun in the evening and the patio doors were great for that open, fresh air feeling. All the glasses, cups, plates etc were spotlessly clean (I always get frustrated at having to reclean them in most places). The communication from Host and Stay was brilliant - the app you use for info about the property during your stay was really stand out. I would definitely recommend this place and would rebook.

A lovely apartment to stay in for the weekend. It was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The apartment had everything we needed and more. In a nice quiet location but only a short walk to the centre of Whitby. My only criticism is that the bathrooms both smelled fusty. They were very clean but have a ventilation problem as they’re both internal rooms with no windows.

Stayed with two young children, and all in had a great stay. Very easy check in. Flat was very well equipped - we ate out, but you could easily cook full meals there. Really convenient location to walk into town and see all the main attractions. Just marked down slightly on communication - we’d booked in for a couple of nights and had an email on our first night reminding us that check-out was 10am the following morning! Also, the pictures show the second bedroom made up with twin beds, and during our stay, the beds had been joined together to make a double. Not an issue for us as our children just shared the bed, but under other circumstances might be a bit awkward, so just a word to the wise to request at time of booking if needed. Overall though, lovely stay and when we come back to Whitby, I’d be more than happy to book here again. Thank you!

breakfast not included. The apartment was very spacious and well designed. Cleaned to a high degree. I personally found the settee too deep for comfort but it looked good. Beds were large and comfortable. A good bonus was the secure nominated car space in the ground floor garage. See comment about settee.

The size of the apartment was great and location just right. The floor had dead dragonfly and bits of tissue paper also a cobweb with dead fly in over the patio doors, the bed mattress in the room with on suite was shot you hit the divan base on the righthand side. They charge £60 for cleaning yet we had the issues above. then send this message "To ensure the property is ready for the next guests, please vacate the property on your day of departure no later than 10am. We also request that you leave the property and its contents in a clean and tidy condition.". They also get you to buy waive insurance for damage yet the coffee table had multiple bits of damage one guest scratched they leg on one bit as the wicker stuck out. Door latch would not close and hold the door as it was loose.

The apartment was clean and nicely furnished. The kitchen was was well equipped and even had fresh milk waiting for us in the fridge. The bedrooms were lovely and one even had an en suite. The only downside was the beds, not very comfortable and the pillows were a bit hard for our liking.

Attractively and comfortably furnished with plenty of bedroom storage space. The kitchen was well equipped and having supplies of cleaning materials was very much appreciated. The online guidebook for the property was very helpful. The outside patio are sounded lovely but it is very overlooked and I can’t see when it gets any sun!

My mother and I really enjoyed our four night stay here. The apartment is exceptionally clean and well equipped. We really liked the layout of the place, as shown in the photos. The bedrooms and bathrooms are very eloquently designed and furnished. The location is just a couple of minutes drive from town or a short walk. It’s also very quiet, we never heard any noise from inside or outside of the building. Would definitely recommend staying here if you are visiting Whitby.

Amazing high end apartment, good size, great beds, real modern and fresh feeling. The underground parking was spot on and location was convenient, easy walk into the centre of Whitby within 10mins.
Home Truths
Unfortunately due to the building of which the apartment is located, Turnstones is not dog friendly.
Although their is allocated parking at the apartment, this is for one car only.
