The area

The centre of Whitby, and Whitby Harbour are just a few short steps away from Grumbles Cottage so it’s ideal if you want to enjoy a break by the sea.

The area is famous for the quality of its fish and chip restaurants, and there are plenty of places where you can sink your teeth into a fresh catch. When you fancy a drink, you’ll find a variety of bars as well as pubs and shops in the local area.

Whitby is also famous for Bram Stoker’s gothic novel ‘Dracula’. You’ll find plenty of sites near the apartment with historic interest relating to the story. The main inspiration can be found at the renowned ruined Whitby Abbey.

Step outside of Whitby and you’ll uncover a haven of woodland and moorland. In particular, Dalby Forest and Guisborough Forest, just a drive away and they both have various beautiful walking and cycling routes to explore.

Grumbles Cottage is located in the town centre, whilst the harbour and Whitby train station are a very short walk away. Villages and towns along the North Yorkshire coast can easily be reached via rail. There’s also a taxi rank in close proximity to the property.

There are plenty of bus routes throughout Whitby. Hop on the X4 and you can visit beautiful coastal villages like Sandsend, Runswick Bay and Staithes. The X93 travels along the coast to Scarborough. The 95 route features plenty of quaint villages, such as Grosmont and Lealholm.

“Great location in the centre of Whitby, perfect for our short stay and would definitely come back. Nicely decorated and had everything we needed. Host was quick to respond to any questions we had. It was a little difficult to find by car as the road is blocked with bollards until 4pm, so if you have an early check in you need to be aware of that, but the advantage was there is no traffic to worry about”

“A lovely little place and ideally suited for a stay in central Whitby. My only comment is that the stairs are very steep in part and probably unsuitable for those with mobility issues. I would highly recommend and stay again”
