A Stones Throw Whitby About A Stoneโ€™s Throw, Whitby

By way of introduction, our association with Whitby goes back years (how time flies?!). We love it, and hope our guests do to?

A Stoneโ€™s Throw is the perfect location for romantic getaways, family seaside adventures or catching up with friends, this luxury apartment is just a five minute stroll from the centre of Whitby overlooking the magnificent Pannett Park. Weโ€™ve spent many wonderful family holidays here and find thereโ€™s always something that appeals for every generation. After many years of family caravanning, we finally took the plunge with our own Holiday Apartment, to enjoy our time here and for future generations of our family to discover the delights of Whitby and make their own memories. After searching for โ€˜the oneโ€™ for what seemed like forever, we were delighted when this luxury 3 bedroom apartment which forms part of a stunning redevelopment of one of Whitbyโ€™s most iconic Victorian houses, became available. The apartment, a five minute stroll from the centre of Whitby, enjoys a magnificent first floor position overlooking beautiful Pannett Park with its extensive childrenโ€™s play area literally on the doorstep. Ideal for couples and families alike, A Stoneโ€™s Throw is the perfect location for romantic getaways, family seaside adventures or catching up with friends, while walkers of all ages and abilities will enjoy the breathtaking scenery of the nearby Dinosaur Coast Path. The delights of Whitby are certain to entice you down to the harbour to enjoy a boat trip followed by some well earned refreshments at one of the many harbour side pubs or cafรฉs, then wander the quaint cobbled streets to the famous 199 abbey steps and beaches beyond. Youโ€™ll be spoilt for choice from the huge variety of places to eat throughout the day and into the evening, all within easy walking distance of the apartment. Award-winning restaurants and bistros, world famous fish and chips, plus cosy pubs and buzzing new bars means thereโ€™s something to suit everyoneโ€™s appetite, budget and holiday style. Whitbyโ€™s local shops cater for all your holiday needs, including excellent butchers and fishmongers if youโ€™re tempted to relax at home for the evening or why not treat yourself to a picnic in the park? A Stoneโ€™s Throw offers relaxing, comfortable accommodation whatever time of the year you choose to visit.

Giant bluefin tuna return to Whitby after almost 90 years ๐ŸŽฃ๐ŸŸ

A remarkable piece of Whitby fishing history unfolded over the last week, with two huge Atlantic bluefin tuna landed in the town in two days.

The first, weighing around 740lb, was brought into Whitby aboard the fishing vessel Dominator on Sunday and is thought to be the first bluefin tuna landed in the port since 1939.

Skipper Clive Easton followed it up on Monday with another impressive catch, weighing around 705lb.

Bluefin tuna, traditionally known as โ€œtunnyโ€ along the Yorkshire coast, were once a famous sight in these waters. In the 1930s, the huge fish attracted big-game anglers to the Yorkshire coast. Whitby still has links to one of the most famous catches of the era, an enormous 850lb-plus tuna landed in 1933.

After largely disappearing from the North Sea, Atlantic bluefin tuna have been making a comeback in UK waters in recent years.

Commercial fishing for the species remains strictly controlled. Dominator is among just 30 UK vessels authorised to target bluefin tuna during the 2026 season, using rod and reel.
