Bridlington is special for its beaches. On a hot, sunny day, the clear waters and grassy cliffs look more like northern Spain than northern England. Nature lovers visiting Bridlington can explore places like Cape Flamborough and The Spa Bridlington Events Centre.

Bridlington has a cosy old town, and the chalk cliffs at Flamborough Head to the north are a nesting site for bird species such as puffins and gannets. Robin Hoods Bay is one of the places that you simply cannot miss once you prepare to visit the Yorkshire coast. This small fishing village, with the same name, hangs over the heart of the guts, so resounding and primal beauty that it has been the setting for filming a lot of television series and movies, some as famous as The Phantom Menace, the first film in the Stars Wars saga.

Bridlington and its beaches are in a league of their own. Nature lovers visiting Bridlington can explore places like Cape Flamborough. During your stay, take time to get to know other sights like The Spa Bridlington Events Centre. The view from the cliff tops over the beach is one to appreciate, and at low tide, you'll go right down to the beach to seem back at the chalk walls and attend the rock pool.

The pleasure boat venturing into the sheltered waters of Bridlington Bay may be a piece of its own heritage. The Yorkshire Belle was launched at Hull's Cook, Welton & Gemmell shipyard in 1951 and is the last of the six cruise ships Bridlington originals. The tour schedule begins at Easter and runs through October, with the most regular trip being a one-hour cruise northeast of Flamborough Head and vice versa. There is commentary throughout the voyage and the Yorkshire Belle has a licensed bar on board. If you fancy observing nature, longer cruises to Bempton Cliffs or Breil Hawk to see gannets, puffins and kittens.

South Beach at Bridlington is bounded to the north by the harbour and gently slopes down the coast for one mile. Beyond that, there is a beachfront that continues for 64 kilometres south to Spurn National Nature Reserve, in the Humber Estuary. But back in Bridlington, the wide sandy beach is just what you need on a hot summer's day, cooled by the breeze coming from the North Sea. The sand is followed by a boardwalk, with sun loungers and beach chalets for rent, while for the little ones there is a land train and a children's pool. If you value peace and space, just walk south to leave the complex behind in a couple hundred metres.

Bridlington is at its prettiest in the middle of the Middle Ages, along Main Street and restored Market Place about a mile from the coast. Main Street is an unexpected delight, weaving between tall Georgian houses with bay windows, home to craft shops, pubs, galleries and tea rooms. Georgian tea rooms are a sophisticated place for a moment of indulgence. The Market Place is also beautiful, framed by beautiful buildings like the Corn Exchange House from 1826. You can pick up a free brochure from the Tourist Information Centre, which will take you along the Old Town Trail to see the best bits.

Bridlington Harbour, which is still a working fishing port, is a true slice of life in the North Sea, where you can watch the waves crash against the docks and the trawlers unload their daily catch of shellfish on the quay. Some are sold locally, but most goes to Spain, France and Italy. On Harbour Road, there is a continuous line of fish and chip shops, ice cream parlours, seafood restaurants and gift shops, as well as a stall selling fresh crabs from the North Sea. Come here for excursions to Bridlington Bay in the beloved Yorkshire Belle.

This Elizabethan manor house has been in the Cunliffe-Lister family since it was completed in the early 17th century. The architect was Robert Smithson, Queen Elizabeth I's master builder, and Burton Agnes Hall is the only one of his houses that preserves the original plan. The interior is filled with valuable objects collected by the family for over 400 years, such as tapestries, French Impressionist paintings, and furniture, both historical and contemporary. The gardens feature a national collection of campanulas, a jungle garden, herbaceous borders and a walled garden with more than 4,000 species of plants.
