On the West Cliff in Whitby, this tastefully decorated Victorian guesthouse offers homely en suite rooms and a freshly prepared breakfast, made using locally sourced produce wherever possible.

Just a few minutes' walk from the seafront and only 5 minutes from the centre of this lovely unspoilt old town, The Europa prides itself on offering a high standard of accommodation and a good breakfast.

Breakfasts are cooked to order and guests can also sample Fortune's famous award-winning kippers, purchased directly from Whitby's smokery.

All rooms are en suite and feature a TV, hairdryer, radio alarm clock and hospitality tray.

With charming accommodation and a wonderful location, The Europa is great for a peaceful, relaxing break in Whitby. The town's skyline is dominated by the ruins of St. Hilda's Abbey, high on the East Cliff. Spreading below, a maze of alleyways and narrow streets run down to the busy quayside.

From the old town, 199 steps lead up to the parish church of St. Mary, one of the finest examples of Anglo-Saxon churches in the country. The graveyard of St. Mary’s provided Bram Stoker with the inspiration to write his world-famous book, Dracula.

The Heritage Centre is situated next to the abbey. The centre houses the history and folklore of Whitby in the refurbished abbey house. The centre uses modern technology to enhance your visit and to make history come alive.

You could also enjoy a boat trip. Choose between the old lifeboat and the mini-Endeavour, then sail out to sea and look back at the wonderful port of Whitby.

If you are feeling energetic, why not walk the 3 miles (5 km) to Sandsend along Whitby’s golden beach. If all that sounds a little energetic, just hire a deckchair, read a book and relax. Please note that there is no on-site parking, however on-street parking is available. Further parking is available at the nearby pay-and-display car park.
