Whitby is a town steeped in history and charm, with its famous Abbey, the 199 steps, and the whalebone arch framing spectacular views of the coastline. The bustling harbor is lined with traditional pubs, cafes, and shops, while boat trips offer the chance to see the town from the water, you may even catch a glimpse of a seal or dolphin. Discover the town’s seafaring history in one of the museums, for such a quaint small town it has a vibrant past, involving Vikings, famous British explorer Captain Cook, smugglers, and pirates. The coastline is Jurassic, and you can find fossils along the beaches, as well as Jet which also plays a part in Whitby’s history. Take a trip on the heritage steam train for a day out to remember, where the train journeys through the North York Moors National Park.
For those looking to explore the surrounding area, the picturesque villages of Robin Hood’s Bay, Sandsend, and Staithes are all within easy reach. Each offers beautiful beaches, quaint streets, and a rich maritime history, making them perfect for day trips. Whether you’re seeking adventure or relaxation, Glossop Cottage provides a perfect base for discovering Whitby and the stunning North Yorkshire coast.
