Whitby
Whitby is a popular choice for visitors all year round. It is well known for its long sandy beach and delicious seafood. For a different day out, why not climb the famous 199 steps to reach the ruins of Whitby Abbey. It's said to have been the inspiration for Bram Stokers Count Dracula, and its gothic splendour is the perfect place from which to take in some truly stunning views over the town.

Whitby harbour is steeped in history and visitors can see where British explorer Captain James Cook first worked as an apprentice before setting sail and discovering Australia. The harbour is a buzz of activity and you can enjoy early mornings watching the fishing boats come ashore before getting first choice of their catch. There's always something happening throughout the town , and festivals and fairs are held throughout the year including Whitby Goth Festival, Whitby Folk Week and the Whitby Regatta.

A lovely very old cottage which oozes charm out of every corner. Very well equipped for modern day life whilst retaining its heritage in the old part of the town. Very well positioned for the local amenities. Our first trip to Whitby and hopefully not our last. Heating very good and under local control so you can easily adjust to suit yourselves, pRead moreersonally we found we had to turn it down as was very warm in the cottage. Lovely walks from the doorstep, did not have to us3 our car during our stay, easily found a parking spot not too far from the cottage. Lovely views of the harbour from the top floor. Hide

The overall was brilliant. One negative was the size of the TV. No bigger than a portable. We know you dont go on holiday to watch TV. But after a days walking in the freezing cold & its raining, a decent telly is a must. Ended up watching the tv in the bedroom most nights. As that was bigger

Beautiful cottage. Extremely clean. Great location. Parking in Whitby is difficult so once we found a parking space we didnt risk going out in the car in case we couldnt park on return. Obviously this is no reflection on the accommodation which is lovely. The upstairs bedroom is very relaxing with great views over the harbour.
