Whitby Turkey & Tinsel Special
Christmas comes early on a Turkey & Tinsel break! Get into the festive spirit in Whitby, with its pretty harbour, Abbey ruins and quaint riverside buildings and experience the festive magic of York Christmas Market.
Explore the historic port town of Whitby, where cobbled streets wind through ancient buildings overlooked by the haunting silhouette of Whitby Abbey on the cliffs above. Discover the tales of Captain Cook and Dracula, indulge in freshly caught seafood, and breathe in the bracing sea air during your stay in this coastal gem. It is just brimming with history and – so they say – the best fish and chips in the world, but we’ll let you be the judge of that! Our visit is scheduled to coincide with Whitby’s Christmas Festival with a Christmas Market and other festive activities. Whatever you do, you’re going to have fun and make some great new memories.
Nestled along the rugged North Yorkshire coastline, Royal Hotel is your base for this long weekend break, perfectly situated to capture the essence of Whitby’s coastal allure. Our festive Turkey and Tinsel weekend includes a traditional Christmas Dinner and entertainment on one evening.
We also head to the fabulous city of York, where their annual Christmas fayre, known locally as the St Nicholas Festival, is set in the historic square and has been established since medieval times. The city truly comes alive with Victorian costumed traders, carol singers and delicious smells of seasonal delights such as roasted chestnuts and hot chocolate laced with brandy.
A great weekend choice for:
* Seaside lovers who want lots of fun plus some historical and scenic excursions!
* Those just wanting to relax and have everything taken care of
* Christmas lovers who are ready to start the festive season early!
