We spent a wonderful week in the Robin Hood’s Bay area in a village named Fyingthorpe. We’ve never ventured to this side of England and, to be honest, wasn’t expecting to end up loving it! It did help - as it always does - that the weather was mostly sunny (and petrol wasn’t a problem). The Cleveland Way is stunning. The cliffs are gorgeous and the beaches full of fossils. We were looking forward to visiting Staithes. It was stunning on the one hand yet it just felt so run down. Mixed feelings, however, we thought this photo captured its best features.
