Set within the magnificent Whitehall, a Georgian mansion overlooking Whitby’s upper harbour, The Genoa Suite is a beautifully presented duplex apartment filled with character, charm and thoughtful contemporary touches. From its original servants’ staircase to its spacious living areas and harbour-side setting, this unique retreat offers a memorable base for discovering one of Yorkshire’s best-loved coastal towns.

Whitehall occupies an elevated position on the east side of Whitby, with the harbour stretching out below. From here, a scenic stroll alongside the water leads you towards the heart of town, passing traditional pubs and tempting fish and chip shops along the way.

For those arriving by car, The Genoa Suite has its own designated parking bay – a particularly welcome feature in this popular seaside destination.

External steps lead up to the grand communal entrance hall of Whitehall, where chandeliers, period furniture and paintings reflect the history and elegance of this impressive Georgian building. Guests can also discover information about Whitehall’s past before following the internal staircase to the landing and the entrance to The Genoa Suite.

Step inside and you’ll find a wonderfully spacious living area where period character is complemented by bold, contemporary styling. The large bay window provides an inviting setting for the dining area, creating a lovely spot to gather together over breakfast or an evening meal.

The striking red kitchen brings a splash of colour to the room and is well equipped with everything you need for a comfortable self-catering stay. After a day exploring Whitby, settle back on one of the two sofas, switch on the gas fire and relax in front of the Smart TV.

Looking down over the main living space is a characterful mezzanine, reached via its own staircase. This additional lounge area features a sofa bed which can accommodate an extra guest, as well as providing another cosy corner in which to relax.

Also on the first floor is the convenience of a separate WC. A desk positioned in the hallway provides a dedicated workspace for anyone who needs to catch up on emails or work remotely during their stay.

Follow the apartment’s original servants’ staircase to the upper floor, where the bedroom sits beneath a vaulted ceiling.

Thoughtfully furnished to create a relaxing retreat, the bedroom includes a wardrobe and dressing table along with a small chaise longue.

A shower room can also be found on this floor, while a second staircase branches away to provide access to the mezzanine.

Beautiful furnishings have been chosen throughout The Genoa Suite to complement the apartment’s historic surroundings while ensuring guests have everything they need for a comfortable stay. The result is an individual and characterful Whitby retreat where Georgian grandeur and contemporary living come together.

With its red-roofed houses tumbling towards the harbour, historic streets, dramatic clifftops and strong connections to the sea, Whitby is one of the most distinctive destinations on the Yorkshire coast.

The town’s history stretches back centuries and is perhaps most dramatically represented by the atmospheric ruins of Whitby Abbey, standing high above the town on the East Cliff. The abbey and surrounding landscape famously helped inspire Bram Stoker while writing Dracula, a connection that continues to form an intriguing part of Whitby’s identity.
