I guess this is a "how longs a piece of string" answer but I'm going to Whitby for 3 nights on Saturday...
I don't have a lot of money to waste,I have £370 for the 3 nights
Am I going to struggle? Or be okay

What do you plan to do there? Is it a quiet weekend or are you on a hen night, etc?

Me and my boyfriend are going
Food /drinks etc

That would be plenty for me. But I’d be walking up to the Abbey, swimming in the sea, and have fish and chips. More than enough. But if you want 3 big restaurant dinners our for 2, pub lunches… it’s not. What are your actual plans?

£370 for you or both of you? Will you be eating out breakfast lunch and dinner?

No £370 for me and he has his own money and I know he will insist on paying for a meal himself he always does ...
Breakfast is paid for and lunch will be a pub lunch /chips etc
A meal on the night -nothing too fancy maybe a Italian or something
I do like a nice cocktail

It's been a very long time since I've been but I can't see you spending that much in Whitby!

You may say nothing too fancy, but you’re planning restaurant meals plus cocktails on 3 nights?
Do you mean he’ll pay one meal for both of you, and you’ll pay your own on the other 2 nights?
And pub meals at lunchtime?
I’d re-thinking my plans. It sounds like you’re just going to go away and spend money on not great food. Except for the fish & chips - that will be great!

You realise it’s the north don’t you. You don’t need that much
