Local Area
Award winning sandy beaches and dramatic clifftop walks, stately homes and picture postcard villages, gently undulating countryside and heather clad moors, lively seaside resorts and wildlife havens – enjoy all these delicious contrasts when you stay on the Yorkshire Moors and Coast.
All along the coast, from Whitby – recently voted the UK’s favourite seaside resort – to Withernsea, you’ll find unspoilt beaches, sandy bays and soaring cliffs and traditional amusements in family friendly seaside towns like Scarborough, Bridlington and Filey.
And while enjoying a holiday in the Yorkshire Moors and Coast region, be sure to visit the maritime city of Hull, home of The Deep, one of the most spectacular aquariums in the world.
Inland, the sweeping moorland and lush green dales of the North Yorkshire Moors National lodge form a glorious backdrop to walking and touring.
Take time for a scenic steam railway trip across the ‘Hearbeat’ moors from Whitby to Pickering – the ‘Gateway to the Moors’ – and don’t miss the famous historical re-enactments at Sewerby Hall, just one of the stately homes and gardens within easy reach of the Yorkshire Moors and Coast.

| The setting is fabulous and so peaceful. The area is beautiful and so easy to get to many other places of interest like Scarborough, Robin Hoods Bay and Whitby itself. The cottages are lovely, home from home and great for our first family holiday with our baby. The pool is a great addition too. We had a fabulous time and would come back ! |

| Captain Cook's Haven is a really quiet, pretty and secluded park - ideal for a relaxing break away from it all, but equally handy for exploring the gorgeous Yorkshire countryside. |

| Idyllic and peaceful location by the river, within easy reach of the town either on foot or by car, and the added bonus of a swimming pool on site. This is the third time we have been and we never grow tired of its charm - the dog loves it too! |
