What visitors say
What a lovely and relaxing spot in Whitby! My friends and I had a wonderful time walking through the park. If you love nature, this is the place to be, we saw so many squirrels and various birds, including pigeons and seagulls. It felt like a little peaceful sanctuary right in the middle of town. 🌳🐿️🕊️ The gardens are beautifully maintained, and the atmosphere is very calm. It’s the perfect place to sit back, enjoy the fresh air, and watch the wildlife. Highly recommend if you need a break from the busy harbour area.

A medium sized park just up the hill from Whitby Train & Bus station near Bagdale Hall. Set on a hill so its quite steep walking. Full of very tame Grey Squirrels. The Whitby Museum is also situated in the park as well as a cafe and children's playground.

Pannett park is just a small walk out from the main town up from the station. It is a very well maintained and interesting park with lots of flowers, trees and wildlife. The squirrels are very friendly! It is a nice leisurely walk through the grounds with various things to see on route, also make sure you head down to the flower clock and read the timeline.

While I don't have green fingers myself, and I don't have a garden, I am always in awe of those who work hard to create stunning public spaces like Pannett Park in Whitby. The gardens are a really peaceful, colourful and well-kept attraction with 12 sculptures, flowers beds, rare trees, fossils and more! The park also overlooks Whitby and has some stunning views. If you love gardens, this is definitely one to visit if ever you are in Whitby.
