Whitby has a host of attractions attracting guests from around the world. This town was inspiration for Bram Stoker’s Dracula, and there is a dark side of Whitby with ghost walks to both fright and delight. The wonderful Goth Festival takes place twice a year, and keep an eye out for other festivals, such as the Folk Festival, Whitby Regatta and the Steam Punk Weekend. With many award-winning restaurants, olde worlde pubs and tea rooms, a colourful harbour and a glorious long golden beach, this is a great place for all interests and ages. The unspoilt fishing village of Staithes, 10 miles away, nestles into the cliffs of the Heritage Coast and is just one of the nearby hidden beaches to explore. Other hidden gems include Runswick Bay, Saltburn-by-the-Sea and Robin Hood’s Bay, each has its own story of pirates and smuggling to tell. There are an abundance of walks and cycle tracks for ramblers and cyclists to take advantage of, including the Cleveland Way, as well as the Esk Valley and its stunning scenery, best enjoyed from the windows of the steam train that travels right into the heart of the North York Moors National Park from Whitby to Pickering. Other attractions for a day out include Flamingo Land, Dalby Forest as well as Alpamare waterpark and spa. The medieval walled city of York is just an hour away and is well worth a visit. This is a magnificent destination all year round, come see for yourself why so many visitors return year after year to Whitby.

Please note that due to Whitby being such a historical area, that car access is limited in the old town. The roads and side streets here were built long before cars. The nearest car park is around a 10 minute walk away, as the cottage is located off the cobbled Church Street and then up a flight of stone stairs.
Parking
There is no parking at The Cottage but you can drive up for loading and unloading your luggage etc. You will need to drive via the cobbled part of church street and park near Blackburns yard .Don’t worry about the crowd during busy times as you can park for 10 mints while you offload .you may wish to do this after 6 pm if town is busy .
As you will appreciate Whitby in peak periods is extremely busy and parking can be a hassle! In some cases the nearest public car park to the Cottage may be a 15 minute walk away.
The cottage is central and hence 5 mints to everything you need.
There is free parking close by along Church Street past the Fleece Public House but you would be lucky depending on what time of day you arrive. There is also a Pay and Display car park opposite The Endeavour Public House on Church Street.
