Considering the Duke Of Wellington Inn in Whitby?

A VT member wrote the following comment about visiting Whitby:

For camping & hiking gear... by jduck1979
On the outside, this shop can be a little bit deceptive, with the window display on the left side of the shop front often filled with knives, plastic pellet guns + handcuffs (among other interesting items, sort of makes me think of Herman of "Herman's military antiques" off "The Simpsons")...... on the inside, it's another of those top-notch small Whitby businesses I only mention here if I know them to be any good dealing with / looking around.

I very recently used them because I've been getting pee'd off with them cheapo £10 - £15 suede effect walking boots / shoes sold in most regular high street shoe shops, as the sodding things barely last me 3-6months before they start looking shredded, and taking water in like you've got a firehose hooked up to them........ today was particularly bad when I had to walk into town, with my right shoe feeling like a swimming pool when I'd barely got a minutes walk from me front door.

So this time I decided to get them from a proper outdoors equipment store, with Hall & Coates seeming the best bet when I did a preview look round all the outdoors gear stores in town a week or two earlier (though admittedly getting back out again was a little tricky that time, as it was still the school holidays, so the place was busy with tourists)..... after having a quick browse at what footwear they had on display + a few other items I might get next time, in the vain hope i might still get some day trips in this year, I picked a pair of walking boots I like, and was quickly fixed up with a pair of the right size (the lady offered to let me try them on first, but me feet were still soaking wet, so I opted against it but they fitted ok when I got home).

I'm probably definately likely to buy from there again once I have money to spend again, and if you're in the area it's one of the best places for you to go if you need gear to explore the more remote parts of the North Yorkshire Moors... or you arrived in the country unprepared for the British weather (and you want the clothing to actually be warm & waterproof + last more than 5minutes).Walking shoes / boots, rucksacks for day tripping / hiking (day-sacks / day-packs?), waterproof clothing, tents, etc.Walking shoes / boots = £19.99 - £60
rucksacks = £5.99 - £25
