An unexpectedly excellent visit during a day out in Filey. Welcoming café followed by the most informative and highly interesting distillery tour. The whisky sampling topped off a fantastic experience. Should be on the itinerary of anyone visiting the area. A true gem.

Whitby Museum

Striving to preserve an Edwardian atmosphere, this museum houses a variety of general collections.

Reviewed By JAYNECBG - London, United Kingdom

This is an absolutely fabulous museum. A must for anyone visiting Whitby. So quirky and fun and informative. From a mummified hand (a burglar’s lucky charm) to a cannon from the battle of Trafalgar, there is something for everyone. We ranged in age from 75 to 15 and everyone was happy. Lovely staff too.

Filey Bird Garden & Animal Park

Reviewed By buffetlegs2016 - Filey, United Kingdom

Hard to choose the best bit of the Animal Park and Gardens, but the meerkats must be somewhere near the top. This is a favourite with visitors who return year on year, but especially popular with local families. There is a children's play area, and a sensory garden; choose a picnic in one of the many cosy nooks or visit the cafe and gift shop on site. Plenty of free parking. This place is run with passion, and you can tel. Covid safe.

A magical small theatre within the Spa Complex hosted the show. The performances of all the cast.... Singers/Magician/Juggler and the Puppet show was polished and enthusiastic. The audience age group spanned under 10's to shall we say a more senior age! All were enthralled from start to finish. A great show. It is on until the 7th of September/

St Mary's Church

Reviewed By 353cliffw - Milton Keynes, United Kingdom

Stopped off at the church by chance on way to the abbey and we’re glad we did as it was a most interesting place which should not be missed. The enclosed pews of various shapes and sizes and status fill the ground floor and balcony which overlook a three tier pulpit. Most unusual and fascinating. Some of the upstairs pews have external timber clad stairs adding to it’s uniqueness. Finally the surrounding graveyard offers fine views of the harbour.
