Festive fishing at Whitby

Well we just couldn't wait until April without a boat trip fix, so we looked at a couple of days in Whitby between Xmas and New Year. The trouble was that the cheapest B&B for 2 nights was £130. If the trip was cancelled at the last minute the B&B still has to paid for, well at least one night anyway, so not really worth the risk.

Then Lynn had a brainwave and called the YHA. A twin room for 2 nights is only £56.............between us! Better still, cancel up to the day before............no fee! Hurrah. OK the twin room has bunks, but also a shower and WC so no problem. And before you ask, yes Lynn will be on top! :)

A few boats surprisingly already full for Sat. Dec 29th, so booked on Shy Torque. We are the only 2 booked so far, he will sail with 6, so if anyone fancies a festive boat trip, get in touch with Rich on Shy Torrque.

Great answer Mark and very true, that will be a nice break for you both over Xmas and the fishing has been excellent judging by the reports, so it could be the time for revenge...:)

That's the plan Chris.........got to happen one day! Plus Whitby is a lovely town, some good shops which she can visit to get over the disappointment of being gubbed for once :)
