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.

We recommend Walebeck to anyone requiring accommodation in Whitby. There is parking for two vehicles and also a garage for bicycles or other equipment. The bungalow is clean and modern with a large TV, well equipped kitchen and comfortable beds. Whitby Town centre is a five minute walk away and the area is quiet with little traffic.

Lovely bungalow in a very convenient location for accessing the town centre. There is admittedly a fairly steep hill to climb on the way back but its not very long - two of our party were over 80 and they managed ok.

We had a lovely stay at Walebeck and would strongly recommend. The walk down into town was only c10 minutes (and maybe 15 on the way back!), so we didnt need to move the car all week as there are plenty of train and bus services available locally.
