Whitby in East Yorkshire, Englang is one of the most gorgeous towns in UK. It is small but steeped in history, signs of which can be encountered almost at every street!This is the place that inspired Bram Stoker's 'Dracula' although you'd never guess walking around its charming, winding alleyways.
Whitby is famous for its crab (which you can buy right after it's been caught or even try to catch it yourself!) as well as its Fish&Chips, but most of all for Whitby Abbey ruins towering over the town high on a hill. Even if you aren't interested in the ruins, you must climb that hill as the views are spectacular (my photos certainly don't do them justice). After such an arduous climb, you will deserve a filling meal and if you don't feel like an enormous portion of F&C, go for a pie but not just any pie-'The Old Pie Shop' has THE tastiest traditional pies in town, presented in the plainest of ways, served in a cute, oldy-worldy, little shoppe. This place has so much to offer: great food, walks, quirky shops, museums, beach, boat rides, you name it, they've got it!And if you can organize it, travel there by one of the few remaining steam engines in UK. Now that's what I call travel in style:)
