Saltmoore
Whitby, North Yorkshire
Newly reinvented and right above Sandsend's sweeping beach, Saltmoore keeps families in its own Beach House with a children's pool, so parents don't feel they're disturbing the spa crowd. Days write themselves: rock-pooling, fish and chips in Whitby and steam trains across the moors.
