Captain Cooks Haven - A holiday park with an indoor heated swimming pool, archery, and a children's playground
Captain Cooks Haven is a holiday park featuring an indoor heated swimming pool, archery, a beach, and a children's playground, set in a quiet valley near the Larpool Viaduct and the Cinder Track. Guests can walk or cycle along the Cinder Track to reach Whitby or Scarborough. The park offers free private parking and free WiFi, though the signal can be weak. Accommodations include holiday homes and cottages, each equipped with a TV and a fully equipped kitchen with an oven. Heating is provided in all units. Some cottages, such as the Captains Cabin, have private gardens with seating areas and BBQs. The on-site restaurant at Captain Cooks Haven serves meals, and a laundry service is available. The park is 2 km from Whitby Beach, 2 km from Whitby Abbey, and within 29 km of Peasholm Park and The Spa Scarborough. Dalby Forest is 33 km away, and Flamingo Land Theme Park is 41 km from the property. Teesside International Airport is 69 km away. The park is open all year, and the swimming pool is available for a £10 charge plus a £10 refundable deposit.
Pros
Great location near Whitby, the Cinder Track, and scenic walks.
Heated indoor swimming pool available for use.
Peaceful valley setting with allocated parking.
Clean and well-equipped cottages, some with private gardens.
Friendly and helpful reception staff.
Cons
WiFi connectivity can be patchy or non-existent.
Some cottages lack basic amenities such as towels, dish soap, and hairdryers.
“It strikes me as a truly comfortable and quiet haven, with a genuinely lovely setting that feels a world away, yet it's surprisingly close to the heart of Whitby. The well-equipped cottages, each with its own parking, make for a remarkably straightforward and pleasant stay. I found it to be a place one would happily return to.”
