EXPLORING

Whitby town centre with all its rich history and intrigue is a short walk from the house, with everything you could need for a perfect stay by the coast. On the East Cliff, overlooking the North Sea, the ruined Gothic Whitby Abbey was Bram Stoker’s inspiration for “Dracula”. Nearby is the Church of St. Mary, reached by 199 steps. The Captain Cook Memorial Museum, in the house where Cook once lived, displays paintings and maps. West of the town is West Cliff Beach, lined with beach huts and the giant whale bone arch is not to be missed. Of course, Whitby is also famous for excellent fish and chips!

Within a short drive you are on the beautiful North Yorkshire Moors. With its stunning moorland landscape, picturesque villages and ancient abbeys, the National Park provides plenty of opportunities for walking, cycling or leisurely sightseeing. Alternatively, you can take the steam train that leaves Whitby, stopping at Grossmont, home to the TV programme, ’Heartbeat’, or carry on down to the market town of Pickering.
