Whitby is one of Yorkshire’s most enchanting coastal towns, where history, charm, and dramatic scenery come together. From its atmospheric Abbey ruins perched high on the East Cliff to its bustling harbour, sandy beaches, and winding cobbled lanes, Whitby offers something for everyone. Just along the coast you’ll find the picture-perfect village of Robin Hood’s Bay, with its steep, narrow streets leading down to the sea, and Sandsend, a tranquil seaside spot ideal for long beach walks and cosy cafés overlooking the waves. The North Yorkshire Moors Railway offers a nostalgic steam train journey from Whitby through the stunning landscapes of the North York Moors National Park—an unforgettable experience for visitors of all ages.
Whether it’s a romantic getaway, a family holiday, or a special celebration, Botany Bay promises a memorable stay. The owners are happy to arrange at an additional cost, bespoke welcome packs and thoughtful extras to make your visit truly unforgettable.
