Flamborough Hotels

Originally a little fishing village, the town today is a small but lively tourist spot, with holiday camps and caravan parks dotted in and around the pretty countryside surrounding it.

What to do

If you'd like to discover the historic sights of Flamborough, start off with Flamborough Castle. Actually built as a fortified manor in the 14th century, only the ruins survive. But it can be found in the heart of the village, making it an unusual sight.

Other places to discover and grab a quick holiday snap include the towering, early 19th-century lighthouse on the headland, and the Grade II listed 12th-century St. Oswald's Church.

This rural setting is perfect if you fancy an escape to the country too. Go for a walk along Danes Dyke for pretty views and enjoy the lovely shingle beach at the bottom. Or go on a guided tour with the Living Seas Centre and learn all about the local marine and wildlife.

Where to go

To get the most from your trip choose a lovely, traditional Flamborough hotel so you can stay close to the centre of town. North Star Hotel and Flamborough Manor are both popular choices, along with B&B's like Crab Pot Cottage and Cameron Court Hotel.

But to really relax into your trip, make time to explore some of the charming restaurants in the town. The Coffee Hutch and Copperfields Café and Diner are two favourite cafés, Lighthouse Fisheries is one of the many local places serving fresh fish and chips, and cosy pubs include the Rose & Crown.

So, for a relaxing trip to remember, get out and discover some of Flamborough's picturesque and intriguing destinations.
