Whitby Abbey
It is hard to come to Whitby and not be fascinated by the ruined Abbey at the top of the famous 199 steps. The Abbey dominates the East Cliff skyline and inspired Bram Stoker to pen his famous novel Count Dracula.
The Abbey and surrounding buildings are now under the protection of the English Heritage and offers all the modern facilities you would come to expect.
For opening times, prices and access see details below

Web site: www.cookmuseumwhitby.co.uk
The young Captain Cook was apprenticed to Captain John Walker. His house in Grape Lane, built in the 17th century, is now the Captain Cook Memorial Museum.
Cook was in Whitby for nine years, sailing on Walker’s ships. It was here he learnt his seaman’s trade.
The Museum’s rich collections celebrate the life of Cook, his crews, and the artists and scientists who sailed with him.
Explorer, cartographer of Australia and New Zealand and much beside, an inspired leader, Cook became a figure of international fame in his own lifetime, and after his death joined the ranks of the greatest explorers of all time. This is where he started.
