What a beach! Off the beaten track - a small village but still, what a beach. Remember to bring supplies although there is a local store for drinks and snacks run by a lovely lady who’s mum ran it before her

Everyone goes. And so they should. Browse second hand / antique stores. Ride the tram up and down the cliff. Get a lemon top. Play the slots. And then perhaps a walk along the Victorian pier that juts into the North Sea as you watch the ships to and from Teesport. Like a day out back in time! Best avoided when wind from North or East though!

Food scene
A smashing place for high quality breakfast after an early morning climb up nearby Roseberry Topping. Then perhaps feed the ducks, visit the book store and have an ice cream before pressing on.
