“The Duke Of York has a special place, tucked right at the bottom of the Abbey steps in Whitby, and I was impressed by how thoroughly it had been refurbished. I noted the community feel fostered by the pub and live events, plus the spotless rooms and that amazing sea view, and I think it's a great pick, especially for families or anyone bringing a dog.”
