Whitby is a town that offers you something a little bit different to the ‘typical’ coastal resort! Here, you can explore ornate cobbled paths, locally owned shops and quirky cafes, giving the town a unique, welcoming atmosphere. One of the most iconic parts of this lovely town is the famous gothic abbey, said to have inspired Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Founded in 657, Whitby Abbey is over 2,000 years old and has so many fascinating stories for you to discover!

York’s annual Christmas Market is spread out over a few of the city’s historic streets, offering a wide range of stocking fillers, unique gifts and fairground attractions that are sure to delight the whole family. You’ll also be able to sample some of the best food Yorkshire has to offer in St. Sampson’s Square, as well as a range of international flavours

The Royal Hotel is in a fantastic location in the West Cliff area of Whitby, overlooking the harbour and opposite the famous Whalebone Arch. From its cliff top location, the hotel offers breathtaking views over the seaside town, Whitby Abbey and the harbour, bustling with fishing boats and larger vessels.

The lovely beach and harbour are also a favourite spot amongst locals and tourists alike, with boat trips available to see the North Yorkshire coast from a new perspective. This is also one of the few places in the UK where you can see the sun both rise and set over the ocean, making the pier perfect for an evening walk! There’s lots to do in the town itself too, such as the Captain Cook Memorial Museum, Whitby Brewery and Whitby Jet Museum. If you’re a fan of walking then you’ll be spoilt for choice, with many routes in and around Whitby, exploring cliffs, woods, country lanes and beaches.

York

York

York, a beautiful and enchanting walled city in the heart of North Yorkshire.

Described as a lively festival city with Roman roots and a Viking past, York offers a fantastic range of attractions for you to explore.  Wander around the Shambles, quaint cobbled lanes which are home to independent stores, quirky gift shops and cosy tea rooms. With buildings from the 14th century, it’s one of the most intact medieval areas in England, visited by many visitors every year.

Visit York Minster, one of the world’s most magnificent Gothic cathedral and the largest cathedral in Northern Europe. This exquisite building contains an impressive collection of medieval stained glass, with the earliest dating back to the 12th century. 

Explore the fascinating museums, such as the National Railway Museum, York Castle Museum and Jorvik Viking Centre. There are also inspiring art galleries, including York Art Gallery with artist collections that span over 600 years.
