This 19th-century coastguard station turned museum showcases a unique piece of maritime history, featuring exhibits on the brave men and women who protected the coastline and rescued those in peril.
Lovely cafe and very friendly staff, with great views out to see. Binoculars are provided
Called Friday 20th Oct during Storm Babette. Thank you for being open!! Warm and cosy cafe. Lovely staff. Terrific sea views from the little front windows. Even some binoculars for customer use. Interesting information around the room too. Remember to show staff your National Trust cards so that the cafe can receive some funding!
Good place to stop for a coffee fight on the sea wall. Plenty if history. The loft is let it by the national Trust and is a great base for exploring the area in just to relax and enjoy the view
This is a beautiful place to visit. Its a hotel now but the location is stunning. Its a 15-20 minute walk from the top of Robin hoods bay. Alternatively it can be seen immediately on entering the village off the Cleveland way, as I did. Lots of shops and plenty of bars and restaurants to. A regular bus service runs between Robin hoods bay and whitby, Scarborough, Ravenscar and Middlesborough. The bus stop is at the top of the village near the car park.
The town itself is decent but not superb, however the coastline footpath to Whitby is very lovely to walk through.
Excellent cafe, highly recommend. The millionaire shortbread was the best I've tasted in years. And with a view over the bay there's nothing better.
