4. Robin Hood’s Bay
A picturesque fishing village set within the North York Moors National Park, Robin Hood’s Bay is a wonderful place to discover. With the idyllic Robin Hood’s Bay Beach, cobbled streets, and an excellent choice of local shops and pubs to enjoy, there’s more than enough to keep you busy!
This unassuming village has quite the history! A hub for smugglers, its narrow and winding streets were perfect for sneaking in with gin, tobacco, and brandy from their ships!
Best attraction: Take a walk around The Old Coastguard Station, a National Trust’s visitor centre with unique displays, including sea creatures found on the beach below!
