Don't leave without trying a famous 'Fortune's' kipper, the amazing smokehouse is located a few doors away on Henrietta Street.
Take a heritage steam locomotive from Whitby to Grosmont, 'Heartbeat' country; the North York Moors are stunning, especially in August and early autumn when the heather blooms. For coastal splendour, walk the cliff tops between the fishing villages of Staithes and Runswick Bay.

Whether for rest and relaxation by the sea, or a beautiful cottage from which to explore, Fossil Cottage is an excellent choice.
