Saltburn by the Sea

Saltburn is a picturesque Victorian seaside resort that oozes history and tradition.

The beautiful Valley Gardens include woodland walks and a miniature railway. There are long stretches of sandy beach with the backdrop of the imposing 'Huntcliffe' where you can enjoy and take in breathtaking views of East Yorkshire's 'Heritage Coast'. Saltburns Victorian heritage is all around you. It ranges from the impressive architecture to the oldest remaining water balanced Cliff Lift in Britain. This will take you down the to the promenade and the pier where, on an evening, lights shine down into the sea giving the effect of a reflecting moonlight.

Close to the pier is the award winning 'Smugglers Heritage Centre', set in ancient fishermens cottages and where the curious visitor can follow the story of John Andrew 'King of the Smugglers'.

Whitby

Whitby is a short drive from Saltburn, approx 40 minutes. Here you can enjoy the sights and sounds of what was once a busy fishing town, now more famous for Captain Cook and the replica of his ship Endeavour that docks in the harbour during the summer months.

Another famous visitor to Whitby was the writer Brahm Stoker who created 'Dracula'. Ghost walks are held on a regular basis during the main season, if you are brake enough to participate!

Whitby is also steeped in history, from its fishing heritage to the well known and sought after 'Whitby Jet' that is still crafted today.

One to try is the Local Fish and Chips. You can definitely taste the difference and they alonce are worth the journey if you do nothing else.

Goathland

Goathland is also approx 40 minutes away from Saltburn. Situated on the North Yorkshire Moors it has become famous of late for the TV series Heartbeat. Although easily reached by road, a more enjoyable way to arrive there is 'under steam' via the now equally famous North Yorkshire Moors Railway.

Here you will be able to visit the Aidensfield Arms, albeit under a diferent name but that is all that is different from the actual programme. Filming is carried out throughout the year and if you are lucky you may get to see the cast in action.
