Guest Reviews

Ian & Stephanie, Nottinghamshire

Thank you Clive & Jayne. Your apartment is beautiful and it was a lovely welcome with the thoughtful gifts. We came down for the winter festival but it had been cancelled due to the storms, but we still had a wonderful time. Whitby is a place we visited a lot at it's so charming so we found plenty to do, some stalls were open in the church hall. We also visited the Christmas fair in the pavilion.

Mr & Mrs Gledhill

This was our second stay. It is lovely and quiet yet only a short stroll into the centre. The apartment has great views of the river and marina.
On our arrival the apartment was spotless and we really enjoyed our stay

Mr & Mrs Walsh

The apartment is comfortable and well appointed. We enjoyed watching the local wild life swim past down the river

Mr & Mrs Oldfield

Really loved the flat, lovely decor and fabulous location together with a easy walk into the centre

About Whitby

Whitby is a popular choice for visitors all year round. It is well known for its long sandy beach and delicious seafood. The river Esk flows through the town to the sea and cottages are perched on the hills on each side, with cobbled streets and historic yards providing a maze of places to explore. The town has a fantastic mix of modern shops and services, traditional stores and boutique shops. Whitby jet continues to be made into beautiful jewellery and sold in a number of shops. There are plenty of excellent restaurants which serve local fish and seafood, as well as a wonderful choice of cafes and tearooms.

The ruins of Whitby Abbey stand dominantly on the clifftop and can be reached by climbing the 199 steps from the old town. The Abbey is said to have been the inspiration for Bram Stoker's novel Count Dracula, and its gothic splendour is the perfect place from which to take in some truly stunning views over the town, harbour and coastline. 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. A statue of this great explorer stands proudly above the town, along with some huge whalebones, a sign of the town's maritime history. 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 of the day.

There's always something happening throughout the town, with festivals and fairs are held throughout the year. These include Whitby Folk Week and the Whitby Regatta, and there are two popular Goth festivals each year. For more information on Whitby and the surrounding area and local events see our Yorkshire Coast Guide.
