Continue into the heart of the town where you will find the attractions of the Gothic Whitby Abbey, Whitby Museum, the Captain Cook Memorial Museum, and panoramic views atop the 199 steps. There is something for everyone in Whitby, with excellent fishing opportunities available along the West Pier and aboard one of the many boat trips which leave the harbour, picturesque picnic spots within Pannett Park, or fun-filled live performances at the Whitby Pavilion. Don’t forget to spend the day on the glorious sands of Whitby Beach, where you can bathe, build sandcastles with the little ones, or wander up to the historic Whitby Harbour West Lighthouse. For adventurous guests, there is a local surf school, where you can also hire paddleboards and sea kayaks. There are boat trips from the harbour where you can look out for coastal wildlife, including seals and porpoises if you are lucky.
Venture into the North York Moors National Park, where you will discover charming villages, vast moorland as well as ancient forests all laced with walking trails. For some of the best scenery, you can take a day trip from Whitby on the steam train. If you love the great outdoors you can follow the Cinder Track on foot or by bike down to Scarborough via Robin Hoods Bay and Ravenscar or take in the incredible views along the Cleveland Way trail along the cliff tops. For families, you can explore the attractions of the Sea Life Centre, Alpamare water park, Go Ape tree top zip lining, and Flamingo Land Theme Park all within an hour’s drive away, perfect for a day out to remember.

Good location.
Good location. Parking was a bonus. Overall a good property. We’ve stayed in quite a few different properties which it would seem were looked after by the owners rather than a management company and you can tell……. It’s the little things that make the difference.

Perfect location for us, quiet and in easy walking distance of the town.
Perfect location for us, quiet and in easy walking distance of the town. Comfortable, clean. This si the 2nd time we have stayed at the signal house and would defiintiely go back
Lovely cottage enjoyed by all . Arrived late on Saturday and couldn’t get any hot water or heating was a cold night . Managed to work it out on Sunday but found it hit and miss and the shower on top floor poor pressure and a few stains on carpets up and down but other than that we enjoyed every minute we were there . Plenty of room for us and the dog . Just a shame it was cold and windy we couldn’t appreciate the outside . Would certainly stop there again and recommend to others .

Very convenient location and the off street parking is a big bonus.
Very convenient location and the off street parking is a big bonus. It was nice to be able to leave the car and walk into the town. Lovely to see the steam trains coming and going so close by. This is a comfortable house and plenty of nice towels supplied. Just right for five people downstairs but could feel a bit too small if more than that.The patio area had a lot of weeds and could do with a tidy, clearer instructions as to the dustbin collection would also be helpful as when we arrived the wheelie bin was already full and had maggots in it; there are two bins and we put both of them out at the front of the drive on the stated day but only one got emptied. Also had to spend quite a bit of time getting the tv to work when we arrived but managed to sort it out ourselves. We would recommend this property and location.
