Our Bed and Breakfast in Whitby is an ideal location for tackling the Whitby to Scarbourgh Cinder track. Walkers and Cyclists can see the start of the path from our guest house.
A safe, exciting and at times spectacular ride along the cliffs on an old railway line, with seaside resorts at either end and cycle hire available on the route. Walkers can also expect the same views as they take a more leisurely stroll. The track utilises the track-bed of the old Whitby to Scarborough coastal railway and it hugs the cliff tops, offering outstanding views and gentle inclines.
Tour de France executives will meet and be hosted by Welcome to Yorkshire personnel. Welcome to Yorkshire will try to convince the tour executives that the North Yorkshire coastal area is ideal for the Grand Depart which is the opening stage of the race in 2016.
A decision is expected in May when they visit.
