Welcome to Lavinia House in Whitby...
Our Guest House in Whitby is an ideal base for discovering the coast, the North Yorkshire Moors, and the narrow streets of this delightful historic town. There is something for everyone and we hope your stay with us will be a pleasant one.
We offer room only accommodation, allowing our guests the opportunity to have a lie-in and experience the vast array of cafe's and restaurants within the town, at their own leisure.
Lavinia house was built in the 1850's, and although retaining its character and features of the original dwelling it offers the comfort and standards expected in a well modernised guest house.
The house is ideally situated at the top of the Khyber pass and enjoys views of the sea, is close to all local amenities and offers friendly, relaxed hospitality to all guests.
Whitby's skyline is dominated by the ruins of St. Hilda's Abbey, high on Whitby's East Cliff. Spreading below Whitby, a maze of alleyways and narrow streets run down to the busy quayside.
From the old town of Whitby, 199 steps lead up to the parish church of St. Mary, whose churchyard on Whitby's East Cliff gave Bram Stoker the inspiration to write his world famous book, Dracula.
Whitby is situated on the Yorkshire Coast. To the south lies the coastal villages and resorts of Ravenscar, Scarborough, Filey and Bridlington. All these are well within a short drive from Whitby.
Parking in Whitby is no longer free, although our guests can park in the "W" zoned parking areas (out front, down the Khyber pass and scattered around Whitby in general) with a permit which you can get from us for a small fee. You will need to display the permit on your dash in the car. Lavinia House has no allocated parking and there may be times in the summer were you may have to park in a pay and display car park of which there are several nearby.
