Many guests return to Whitby year after year as there are so many sights, attractions, and fascinating history to discover. Whitby is a proud seafaring town, with a colourful history; you can find out more at the museums or even first-hand up at the abbey ruins. Walk through the whale bone archway on the West Cliff or visit the shipwreck on Saltwick Bay and look up into the cliffs to spot the smugglers’ tunnels. For those who wish to experience the wonders of this inspiring area, why not walk amid the scenic beauty of the North York Moors National Park, which can be accessed by the heritage steam train winding its way through the rolling hills of heather. You can also explore quaint coastal villages such as Robin Hood’s Bay, Staithes or Runswick Bay. Take in the sights along the seafront at Filey, Scarborough or Saltburn. And if you’re a history buff, take a trip into York to soak up the culture brought by both the Romans and the Vikings. Closer to home, you are just a leisurely stroll away from the many attractions the popular seaside town of Whitby has to offer, including the long golden stretch of sandy beach, the 199 steps up to the St Mary’s Church perched on the cliff top, the boat trips around the bay and the freshly caught seafood which can be enjoyed in many award-winning restaurants. Beach 550 yards.

Nice compact apartment for a short stay

Nicely decorated and furnished. Could have done with a bit larger table for 2 of us to eat at but we managed. Overall, it was as described and very handy for the Whitby Pavilion. If only there was a parking spot!
