Visited here a few times and enjoyed the museum & also eating at Nana Toms Cafe which is very good value for money but very surprised that they have started paying entrance fee when they have been given lottery money & thought that entries were free into museums. I know they closed it down over the winter saying staff shortages... More

I visit the park on numerous occasions and often pop in the museum for a browse and a coffee. The area is very proud of its connection to Captain Cook and should be promoted and enhanced as a larger attraction. More

If you can do the whole Captain Cook tour/trail, it is well worth doing. Staithes, Whitby, Great Ayton and Middlesbrough. Really good fun and some great things to see. I think you can do the trail from Whitby. More
