Leisure World in Bridlington is an undercover complex containing three different pools as well as bar and catering facilities. Bridlington shares a trait with almost all other seaside towns in the multitude of excellent fish and chip shops that can be found there. Hotels and guest houses offer bed and breakfast with beautiful sea views and a wide range of Holiday cottages and self-catering accommodation is available in the surrounding countryside. Along the coast there is an excellent array of camping and caravan parks. Situated just south of the A165 from Filey and north of Beverley, Bridlington has great road links. Although some distance from the North York Moors, it is on the edge of the Wolds which have picturesque walks and stunning scenery.
| Flamborough is situated on the east coast of north Yorkshire and forms one of the most impressive coastlines in the North. The characteristic white chalky cliffs are home to many sea birds in the UK; the main attraction is Bempton Cliffs; an RSPB reserve. It’s the best place in England to see seabirds and has the largest concentration of breeding seabirds on the English mainland. The reserve is open all year round; as is the visitor centre apart from the Christmas week. A visit is very likely to show puffins, gannets, kittiwake, tree sparrow and short eared owls. | ![]() |
| In Flamborough, the old lighthouse no longer in use is where the village originally got its name from. It stands close to the new lighthouse where parking is available. The castle and church are located more centrally in the village where there are public houses offering bed and breakfast and restaurants. The village is un-commercialised, but has the typical village shops including a chemist, florist and betting shop. It offers a great escape from the busy fast-pace towns and cities. |
| The Cliffs at Bempton are a true spectacle-they are approx. 86m above sea level and are the largest sea cliffs in eastern Britain. Walks on the cliff tops are a good way to see the birds, alternatively boat trips are offered. During the summer, half hour sight seeing cruises visit famous caves around Flamborough, no booking is required for these. Also fishing trips leave twice daily at 1pm and 4pm, weather permitting. |
