Location description
Whitby is an ancient port with a fascinating history, a ruined abbey and a working harbour. It also has sandy beaches, donkey rides and rock pools, not to mention some of the best fish and chips in the world.
The River Esk flows due North through the centre of the town dividing it into East and West Sides, linked by the renowned ”swing-bridge”. Whitby Abbey, St Mary’s Parish Church and the picturesque ‘old town’ lie on the East Side. The Abbey and Abbey Visitor Centre can be accessed by road, but most visitors follow the traditional route through the old town. The cobbled Church Street leads you to the foot of the famous 199 steps leading from the town to St Mary’s Church and the Abbey Headland.
The West Side of the town has some equally historic fishermens’ cottages, hidden in traditional yards behind the fish market and main shopping streets. Slightly further away from the noise and bustle of the harbour are many fine Georgian town-houses, built during Whitby’s most prosperous era in the days of sail. They cluster around the delightful Pannett Park, also home to the town Museum and Art Gallery.
The Whalebone Arch and bronze statue commemorating Whitby’s most famous explorer, Captain James Cook, stand proudly on the West Cliff, facing directly across the harbour to the Abbey. James Cook learned his seamanship as an apprentice in Whitby and all of the ships used on his three world voyages of exploration were built on the banks of the Esk below.
The many hotels and guest-houses on the West Cliff were largely built during Victorian times when Whitby became a highly fashionable spa resort, visited by artists and writers including Turner, Lewis Carroll and Charles Dickens.
Directions
From the North, take the A171 out of Guisbrough, and follow the road across the rolling hills until you're suddenly greeted by a panoramic view of Whitby and the sea. Keep following the road all the way, and you'll arrive in the town. (See note below about parking in Whitby)
From the South, West and South West, follow the A64 from York, then take the A169 from Malton, through Pickering and then across the North Yorkshire Moors, with stunning panoramic views. Stay on the 169 all the way down Blue Bank, through Sleights, and up the other side of the valley to a roundabout connecting you with the A171. Turn right, and follow the road all the way into town. (see note below about parking in Whitby)
From the South East (the East UK coast), follow the A171 coast road North from Scarborough. Stay on the road all the way into Whitby.

We'll be back again
Great cottage and great location. We got a very reasonable Easter break as a last minute booking and have to say that it was fantastic. You are right on the river and the cottage is set in lawned gardens and surrounded by woodland and water. We would have paid more for a cottage of this standard. We would hope to come back again one day - fantastic :)
RIVERSIDE COTTAGE REVIEW FOR XMAS
Six of us recently had a family holiday in Riverside Cottage for Christmas. This was one of the better holiday cottages we have ever stayed in. We have paid up to Ł300 more at the same time of year for worse cottages.
It was warm, very large and had two bathrooms and 3 toilets on each of the 3 levels in the cottage.
The owners had decorated a really nice Christmas Tree for us and free WiFi was an added bonus. The kids (teenagers) loved it and the views of the River just 10 metres away are fantastic. What a great setting to wake up to. Also because the river is tidal at this point, the views are constantly changing outside as the river ebbs and flows as the sea comes in.
The cottage was well kitted and well fitted out. Everything we wanted was there. No looking around for the little things like bottle openers etc, all were supplied.
A great place which we would all use again.
