I have just got back from Whitby and it's just one of my favourite places to be. I went for a couple of days with my boyfriend, we had a fantastic weekend with lots of lovely sun, sea aaaaand chips!
As the photos show the scenery is stunning. There are lots of lovely little quirky, independent shops, I always end up spending a fortune and travelling back to Manchester with about 50 extra bags!
This is us on our most recent trip. We've been 4 times now I think and part of the reason I love it so much is that it's our place. I've only ever been here with Dan and it's now become our place really. Whitby has plenty of shops and a couple of Indian restaurants to keep me happy and more than a few classy boozers to keep us both happy! One of the top pubs is The Little Angel. Such a friendly atmosphere, a lovely beer garden, a great selection of beers and the shots are absolutely lethal.
Whitby is not just a quaint little seaside town. It also has a Gothic side which I adore, it's so awesome with so many people from different walks from life strolling around. The Gothic side comes from Bram Stoker stayed there and got his inspiration for Dracula and it's where Dracula first washes up when he reaches England. There used to be the Dracula shop but sadly closed down but leaves the Dracula experience which is kind of a walk through of the history of Dracula and may have a sneaky vampire pop out at you!
I've always stayed in the same place, the shepherd's purse, as it is so quirky and unique. A walk down a alley way leads into a secret garden. Each room is completely different and a vintage, trinket lovers' dream. I'm not usually into vintagey things but I LOVE this place. The staff are lovely and it's such a treat to just sit in the little chairs in the garden, share a bottle of wine and watch the local people come and go.
I have a Whitby haul to do as I bought some amazing things, it'd be a shame not to share and also a Whitby Superdrug haul as I got a amazing bargain in there! Any seaside towns or gorgeous beaches you would recommend? I love being by the sea, do you?
