This lovely little village is set on the coast of the North Sea just outside Whitby. In fact you can actually clearly see Whitby up on the top of the cliffs from the Beach!
Robin Hood's Bay is a picturesque old fishing village on the Heritage Coast of the North York Moors. It is a fantastic place for adults and children alike with a beautiful family (and dog !) friendly sandy beach, as well as rock pools to explore and ancient fossils to discover.
Wandering through its narrow, twisting cobbled streets and alleyways, you can easily imagine the sailors and fishermen, smugglers and press gangs that walked these streets hundreds of years ago.
Today it is a vibrant village, with a wide range of cafes, pubs, restaurants, small shops and places to explore, as well as many stunning coastal and country walks, cycle-paths and bridleways right on the doorstep.
There is a wide range of high quality accommodation in the and around the village, making Robin Hood's Bay a great place to stay for a few days. With easy access to both Whitby and Scarborough, together with other parts of the stunning North York Moors National Park and Heritage Coast, where better to stay for a short break or a longer holiday.
It's probably one of the most photographed locations in the world: no trip to this part of the world is complete without a visit to Robin Hood's Bay England.
Make sure you have plenty of energy - that famous steep hill snaking down from the clifftop to the beach at the bottom, and lined with lovely cottages, shops and cafes, which seems even steeper on the way back up!
Robin Hood's Bay Smuggling history is well known, and given the location of the village surrounded by cliffs and marshland it was the perfect place for smugglers to hide and sell their goods! That's just one part of Robin Hood's Bay history and there is so much more to discover about this fantastic seaside fishing village.
It's not far from Robin Hood's Bay to Scarborough or Whitby and both are within a relatively short drive so you are able to visit this beautiful village from either very easily! There's even a special Robin Hood's Bay webcam so you can have a look and check the weather before setting off!

I have also saltburn keep it up very enjoyable thank you 🙋
Especially love the West Country and Yorkshire.My husband is a Yorkshire man.
I’m an Australian and I have been to Robin Hoods Bay every time I visit Whitby. The Yorkshire coast is amazing and love the atmosphere it provides. Love this footage
Thank you! Hope you're safe and well down under and come back soon!
There's always a warm Yorkshire welcome here for you ♥️
I stayed with my daughter many years ago at the hostel at Boggles Hole and when the tide was out we walked along the beach to Robin Hoods Bay.
It was a lovely never forgotten experience.
The village was beautiful with lovely olde shops and cottages.
Peaceful and magical place..
You brought back a very happy memory to me.
Thank you.
Thank you for watching my channel and my videos it really means a lot to me 👍
Lovely! I think it's great that you are focusing on ordinary British towns and villages instead of just more videos of the worlds famous cities! These places deserve to be filmed, and viewed by as many people as possible. Would definitely recommend people try and watch these videos on a good TV screen rather than a mobile device as it's so much more immersive. Love seeing them in 4K as every tiniest detail shows up so it's pretty much exactly as the human eye sees things. This really makes if feel like being there. Judging by other comments, some people prefer the videos to have music, some people don't. Both totally valid opinions. I personally prefer the natural sounds as it adds to the immersive nature of the footage. Could i therefore make a recommendation: that for each of the places you film, you upload 1 video of it with the music, and 1 without. Then viewers can then choose, and it means more views for your channel!.
Good idea - will try that!! thank you so much!
Can you do one on red-carpet?
Red car
We visited Robin Hood Bay 20 years ago in the middle of winter and there wasn't a lot of people around then, we had a hire car and drove the coast from Redcar to Whitby, and stopped at all those place's in between. The coast line is so beautiful just wish we had done that drive when we were there in September. I was born in Stockton, we moved to Australia 1956 I was 6 years old, Now.
70 years old and still love the "old place" been over half dozen times. Your video's certainly make a person home sick.
Keep up the "great work" When all this "Virus" is finished with we will be back for another holiday
Thank you so much Laurie!
I agree about stopping off at the little places - they're definitely worth stopping off at them and some of them are just beautiful
I really love Staithes and Runswick Bay too on that coastline!
Thank you for watching my channel and my videos it really means a lot to me 👍
Browns shop was there in the 1950s when I bought , or rather Dad did, a toy yatch. Glad the shop is still going.
I have been to Robin Hood's bay many, many times including on a school trip when I was about 7 or 8. I have also visited with my parents when we had our caravan - back in the days when caravans were so rare that if you saw another caravan on the road you would wave to each other! I grew up in Halifax in Yorkshire and as teenagers we used to catch a bus to Whitby and then walk along to Robin Hood's Bay. Happy times. Of course I have been back many times through out my lifetime and have always loved it.
Me too. I can smell the sea.
You have great taste Jan - lovely place!
Travelled from New Zealand in 2017 and couldn't understand why Brits seem to travel to Europe for their holiday!? When you have so much of your own beautiful country to see. Thanks for the gimbal walk.🍻🏞
Well said Mike!
I think honestly it's just the climate. If we had the sunshine here more people would stay in the UK for sure!
Totally agree with gimbal, we brits can only do so much cold and rain! 😀
I said exactly the same about NZ when I arrived home from there. :)
If we had the weather it would be the greatest place on earth .
Millions of Brits solely holiday in England and most split their annual leave between abroad and staycations.
I'm going to Robin Hoods Bay next week, I haven't been there for many years. Thanks for reminding me, now I'm getting excited to see it again. Thank you!
Great stuff - have a GREAT time KB!
I must have been six or seven years old when I was taken to Robin Hood's Bay, which would have been in the late 1940's. I'd gone with a family who were neighbours from my back street home in Leeds. All I remember of them was their name 'Kitchenman'. The cottage was right on the cliff top, although we couldn't see the sea for the cottages on the opposite side of this tiny street, nothing like what I would have called a street. Every morning, very early, I used the run down to where the fishermen were unloading their catches, fascinating to a city kid like me. I don't remember much else about the village itself, and I suppose that back then it wasn't what you would call a seaside like Scarborough and Bridlington. It was tranquil, apart from the birdlife, especially when the fishing boats were around. Apart from the morning run - I remember that I went everywhere imagining that was driving a bus - an abiding memory, was bilberry picking on steep fields behind the cottages where they were in abundance. I remember taking bags of then home, and my mum making bilberry pies that made your tongue purple. I can't recall seeing bilberries since. I have been back there since, probably in the 1970's, and was disappointed that I couldn't find the old cottage I'd stayed in, but I suppose that in reality, I had no real idea of where it actually was.
I wonder what happened to Bilberries Barry?
@@GimbalWalkTV : Apparently, bilberries are native to western Europe, particularly Scandinavia. It is a wild fruit growing low on the ground - unlike blackcurrants, as I saw for myself, and noted in my earlier comment. I have no idea why we don't appear to farm bilberries in the UK, but in Europe they are used in jam (Poland), in France made into liqueur, etc. Whilst they are not the same, bilberries are genus related to the North American blueberry which we import for consumption. It might be that modern horticultural methods made harvesting bilberries too much trouble, and along the similar line of 'apples'... why do we import apples? I suppose the same could be said of wild herbs that used to be harvested by people as and when required. The fact that as a childhood memory, I was able to connect the historic Robin Hood's Bay, with a wild fruit we no-longer see, surely tells its own story. Watching your video again, I realise that the Robin Hood's Bay of today, bears little ressemblance to where I stayed seventy years ago ... no sea wall, no promenade, just cliffs, rocks, and sea. The little boats landing their catch at high tide when the sea came up to road level. It is likely that the cliff top cottage I remember staying at, had long since fallen into the sea.
Oh what a lovely memory and story . . Best wishes to you . 👍👍👍👍👍👍🏖🏖
I visited Robin Hood's Bay way back in 1962 when my parents booked a weeks holiday in a Railway Camping Coach. This was an old railway carriage that had been fitted out with a kitchen and bunk beds. This was a rather basic self-catering holiday, but for me, great fun. To be, honest, I don't recall much of the village, other than the steep hill down to the beach. We had a railway runabout ticket which allowed unlimited travel between Scarborough and Whitby, and Whitby and Goathland, so we spent much of our time in Scarborough and Whitby. The railway closed, I believe in 1964, and no doubt British Rail were glad to be rid of it, but I rather wish it had survived.
Oh my goodness that sounds like the absolute perfect holiday!!
Magical!!
We went to Robin Hoods Bay many years ago, it's not changed, still beautiful
I bet it hardly ever changes over the years
Feels really traditional and great!
My great auntie used to have the loral pub in the 1930/40s. My mum was evacuated there during the Second World War. I have such happy memories of Robin hoods bay.
Nice! Lovely place eh!
We both love Robin Hoods Bay
It’s so beautiful isn’t it Shaun!
Makes me proud to be a Yorkshireman the east coast of God's own county....about time you & the McMaster collaborated.....the dynamic duo....
Oh I'm sure we will definitely do a video together at some point!
Please count me among the many who like the music that you put together with the footage. I think it's a beautiful marriage of sight and sound. The video introduces us to the place, and the music supports the vibrant, explorative nature of the content, while at the same time, maintaining its identity as a series of beautiful, upbeat songs (many of which I wouldn't have known & liked prior to watching the video). Go with your gut feel. It most often is right.
Thank you very much! I really do appreciate the kind words
Stay safe and well Dennis and thank you for watching my videos - it means a lot ♥️
We loved this place but haven’t been here for years. I always remember going down the road with it’s charming little shops. We were amazed how lovely it was on the beach area.
.
I remember this very nice guy coming back up the road from the beach, who commented to us that it will wipe the smile from your face on your return. Now I think about it I can’t remember if he was smiling or not.
Great video thanks for the memory, oh by the way we were smiling on our return.
Thank you so much! That's a great story I can definitely relate to!
Watching this on TV .love the place and the great soundtrack😊
❤️❤️❤️❤️
I loved visiting Robin Hoods Bay as a young boy one day I’d love to go back there
Well again long time since I was there . I remember the hill . Don’t think I’d get back up it now oh dear . Awwww very lovely love it 😊 changed a lot much more modern now amazing lots of work been done still got the lovely stone work tho how lovely oh wonderful great when you get to the bottom beautiful how it opens up with a beautiful sea view .

Lovely isn't it!
Thoroughly wonderful village I wish modern architecture would emulate this style, absolute paradise! love from West Yorkshire 🌼❤️🏴
Agreed! Thank you for watching my channel ❤️
I went to Robin Hood's Bay in year 5 a year ago on a school trip and walked exactly where you showed and I showed it to my parents and my little sis bcc she will be going to Whitby soon also the sweet shop Dollies I got giant parma violets from there and the fossils shop I got loads of things this gave me back the nicest memories also we went when it was very very mildly flooded and thunder storming but that only made the holiday better thank-you so much for doing this it has made my day
Ah you’re welcome
Thank you for watching my channel O really appreciate it
I hope to give people happy memories of the places they go so that’s made my day!
enjoyed the filming -but would be so much better with 'natural 'sounds (I turned the sound off - so thanks for the commentary.
Thank you so much - I’m experimenting with a few things including music so will take your comments into consideration.
Appreciate the feedback ❤️
@@GimbalWalkTV I've seen some comments like that, and I'm starting to feel odd for rather enjoying the music.
The music is great gives a happy positive vibe to your videos....people can turn sound down if not their cup of tea.
Loved the music
@@stephen3654 Possibly. I listen to music all the time. It lifts your spirits and is good for the soul. Love a bit of heavy rock too.
Robin Hood's Bay is so picturesque. I have been twice. The 1st time I went was when I was about 7 years old, I was down on the beach with my parents when a flock of seagulls must have had a spate of diarrhoea 🤣 my anorak was covered in bird poo. Good job I had my hood up, my poor Mum had to try and hand wash my coat in the sink of the holiday flat that we were staying in.
Have always wanted to go as my mam and her Gran would go there for holidays from Tyneside way back in the 30s and stay with a family called Morells who I believed owned a chip shop in Robin Hoods Bay, my mam said they were lovely holidays for a little girl at the time just before the war, she never forgot them. After watching this I'm definitely going to come down and have a good wander around and bring my 2 grandsons who will love all the hidden gems and we can go exploring with Granda. Thank you for this lovely video now I see why my lovely mam had such happy memories of such a great place.
Ah great stuff - you'er welcome that's why I do it!
Just watching this video now, I'm getting homesick for my county, we are definately going to plan a trip
'oop North'
as soon as possible, to explore our roots 👍
Do it! 👍
I worked there for 5 weeks back in 1964. For 3 of them me and the journeyman stayed in the Grosvenor hotel, the other 2 were B&B at the house of a labourer (Bish) on the site.
At the bottom of the hill the building on the right was taken by Leeds University as a Marine laboratory. We were contracted to instal pumps and control gear to draw sea water and pump it up into tanks at the top of the building.
Was last there around 2003 , the sea pipes although smashed were still seen . Inside on the floor in the sea corner is a trapdoor accessing the pump chamber.
wow - didn't realise there was so much going on under our feet!
I dont remember going here when I was a child, as we used to holiday in Scabrbough, but when we did the bus to Scarborough to Whitby we went pass it a few months ago
I grew up visiting here every year, a very dear family friend owns the bay hotel and my nanna stays there multiple times a year. havent been able to visit due do corona but this video helped my home sickness so thank you x
You're welcome Tia!
Just happy that I'm not the only one who loves this place!
Robin Hoods Bay end of the coast to coast walk starting at St Bees in Cumbria , lovely place very eerie at night
Ah didn't know that Allen! Thank you!
Thank you for watching my channel and my videos it really means a lot to me 👍
I saw a ghost in Robin hoods bay years ago near a steep hill full of grass at night. It was a white shape moving fast down the hill. Really creepy but a beautiful place
Always worth a visit been many times. The best was in 1999, saw Travis in the Bay Tavern. Mark and Lard did their last radio 1 afternoon show live from Robin Hoods Bay, brilliant day 👍🍻
Thanks for dredging up the memories 😄
Travis? Were they playing live?
Sounds like the place has had some famous visitors over the years!
@@GimbalWalkTV yeah they played a few songs during the show, I remember a stonking version of Britney Spears' Baby one more time 😂
From memory I believe Mark Radcliffe had done the coastal walk and said RHB was his favourite place so wanted to have his last show there.
Good morning, yes my wife and have stayed at the Bay Hotel ( if you look with the sea behind you at the hotel, the top left windowwas our room, and very nice to). The tunnel below the bay hotel was for smugglers, if you walk up it you can see all the trap doors in the ceiling for giving people all the ill-gotten gains. Keep going and you come out opposite Brown's ( under the trees).
Another great video well done.
Nigel Mitchell.
Thank you Nigel! I"m back there in a few weeks so will try and do an explore video of it!
Such a wonderful place. Visited a few times in the past. I think you should go back and film round all the alleyways - They have flowers in pots outside doorways and are just so sweet - I always think of Robin Hoods Bay as “fairyland for people” when walking through them but I didn’t get this feeling as you only kept to the main roadway. They really are worth another look. Thanks for sharing.😀
Definitely going back to do a part two - it's impossible not to go back here as it's so lovely!
Thank you for watching my channel and my videos it really means a lot to me 👍
Thanks for that, I've only ever drove down there with being disabled, but you don't see the beauty of the place unless you walk down & have a look around...So thanks for walking for me..
You're really welcome Kenny - that's exactly what I set out to do with my channel so thank you!
Thank you for watching my channel I really appreciate it! 👍
been there some weeks ago for a 10 night stay, "Baytown" and the coastline is just amazing, we will come back asap
I stayed here with my parents about 1976 in the most haunted cottage ever,couldn't wait to get home ,so spooky
Oh no! That sounds exciting!!
We’ve spent many years of holidaying there, such a charming place to stay. The old building you were asking if anyone knows what it used to be, it was originally a Police Station.
Ah thank you Jane! Didn't know that!
Robin Hood's bay is a lovely place, imagine living there! We visited here about 3 years ago & met Les Battersby who used to be a character on coronation street apparently he has a house there.
Les Battersby! That would be surreal! 🤣
Thank you for watching my channel and my videos it really means a lot to me 👍
M6 father's family had 1 of the cottage 's here in the 1940's. From what I am told they spent a lot of time in the Laurel Pub. As a kid spent some lovely days here not changed at all. . I am now 68 and live in Australia since I was 12 years when I came here. However, I always go to Whitby and Robin Hoods Bay when I go over to the UK. In 2002 took my daughter and wife here they loved it
I bet - such a lovely picturesque part of Yorkshire!
I had a very drunken Saturday afternoon in the Bay Hotel many years ago. Happy days... Great video, great music
Thank you!
Ive stayed many many times in Little John House directly opposite the Bramblewick since I was very young. This has been one of my families favourite places to go on holiday
Perfect! Lovely place
Lovely video, I've wanted to visit Whitby for years , I'll add Robin Hood's Bay to my itinerary.. the Irish are coming open the bars 👍
ha ha yes!!! enjoy!! (the landlords will love you!)
Visited Robin Hoods Bay many years ago while staying at a hotel in Ruswarp a village just outside Whitby. A film crew was staying in the hotel who were making David Copperfield for I think the BBC..
They invited us to go to Robin Hoods Bay that night where they would be filming the shipwreck scene. We went and it was amazing to see it down at the slipway with all the lighting and wind machines and all the work that went into it. We also saw some of the filming in Whitby and spoke to Simon Callow who was in the programme. Your video brought back those memories. Thank you.
Ah I'm jealous - would have loved to have seen that happening!!
In the 1980s I finished my Wainwright coast to coast walk here from St Bees on the west coast 184 miles, took 2 weeks. An incredible walk with good friends.
Yes, I've been to Robin Hood's Bay, and found your video an excellant one, and became subscriber.
My turn came 1 October 2008, via early bus from Whitby, the downhill walk before the shops open, uphill return in afternoon. I was 58 and was still a cigarette smoker then... Loved every step of the nearly three hours it took me to get back up to the bus stop, but had to scrap original plan to walk back to Whitby on the path(s) available. I've since stopped smoking and expect to be back in April or May of 2022 and with wife this time. Your marvelous approach to this topic has made me know for sure getting to that stretch of coast must be a high priority, still quite doable with no car involved. Thanks again.
Thank you so much Michael!! That means such a lot to me I really appreciate the kind words 👍
We took the morning bus from York to Whitby: the most scenic bus tour in England, spent some hours in Whitby (ate at the Magpie restaurant) and then we took the bus to Robin Hoods Bay . We had afternoon tea at the Victoria Hotel (where the movie "Phantom Thread was filmed") walked the town as you did and then returned to York via Scarborough. What can I say... one of the best days of my life. York, Whitby and Robin Hoods Bay..what a triad! Thank you so much... This is very, very nice...
Amazing happy memories there - that's exactly why we make these videos - thank you so much for watching my channel ♥️
Enjoyed that thank you. Stayed in a cottage for a few days at the beginning of March. The day we vacated was so nice and we decided to sit in the garden of the Victoria Hotel and have breakfast overlooking the bay. Precious time. Covid kicked in just after and the world became a different place.
Over the top of the ice cream van on top of the headland in the distance is a place called Ravenscar. It was a Victorian dream to make it into a spa resort. The railway and infrastructure was put in and then it stalled as its own microclimate and height was not conducive to their aspirations. Search its history, its quite interesting and worth a visit. The Ravenscar Hotel sits at the top of the outcrop.
Ah I wasn’t aware of Ravenscar. Am looking it up now on Google Maps! 👍 thank you!
Warkworth in Northumberland would be a great place to film. Very picturesque with castle, village, unspoilt beach and dunes
Oh thank you Pamela - have added to my filming list!!
Thank you for watching my channel and my videos it really means a lot to me 👍
Stopped of at Robin Hoods Bay a couple of years ago on our way to Whitby' ...Walked of the car park at the Top and saw that steep hill and thought Nah lol..Reminds me of Steep hill in Lincoln .. The saving Grace there a mini bus runs back up it , Were going To Filey in May and having seen your walk im going back and doing it ..Once again Thanks for the Inspiration
Use to live whitby 3 years use to go Robbin hood bay all time lovely 😍
The best!
Thank you so much for watching my channel it means a lot to me 👍
again another brill video , thanks very much. again recent years memories of walking down and up again . and sampling the grate fish n chips in the ally on the right near the bottom. we used to satay at middle wood farm and walk the scenic route leading from the chip shop through the woods . back next year .
Thanks again! Great place isn't it!
Thank you for watching my channel and my videos it really means a lot to me 👍
Beautiful, we stayed on a campsite a short walk away last year. Glorious weather and when we got down to the bay we had to wait for the tide to go out. It was beautiful to see.
Thank you Angela
Thank you for watching my channel and my videos it really means a lot to me 👍
@@skumuk3876 yes it was, lovely campsite.
I've got a feeling your a northern soulie with the soundtrack. Was fantastic walk around with that music. Quality
Thank you so much ❤️
What a place. Absolutely beautiful. Do the visit September 2021 whilst travelling the east coast. Including York and Bedale. Your video was great and gave another insight. Thanks for sharing.🤪😜🥳
Thank you so much!
One of my favorite places in the country. We have been here about three times and stopped once at the hotel for the New Year.
The one at the top of the hill.
Ah yeah! I’m due to go and stay there! I hope it’s nice!
Been here many times over the years from West Yorkshire. I have walked to the village from Ravenscar further down the coast and also as part of the long distance Cleveland Way, had fish and chips whilst sitting on the new sea wall and browsed the many little shops. It’s one the East Coasts many gems and will be back staying in my caravan at the Caravan and Motorhome Club site nearby in August. Great videos.
Thank you Stephen 👍👍
Can’t beat fish and chips looking out to sea can you! It’s just magical
I am going to have a nosey at Ravenscar now!
I know some people keep moaning about the music but I find it happy and bouncy. Love it! Thank you for doing what you do. :)
Been many, many times. Great fish and chips shop on right at bottom of hill. Beach is great for fossils. Going back up on right great little alleyways with little cottages.
Lovely stuff - would love to go fossil hunting. It's amazing that we can still do that today - you'd have thought they'd have all gone by now!
What a lovely video! We've been visiting Robin Hood's Bay at various times of the year ever since our eldest child was born 32 years ago. We love it! The best fish & chips in the world are sold at the chippy right at the bottom of the bay, on the right up a side street by the bistro. We've now started taking our grandchildren who also love it - especially the rock pools. I can't wait to go back there whenever the local covid restrictions enable us to.
Hopefully soon then!
Have you been to Staithes too?
Not far from Robin Hoods Bay - I did a video on it - it's stunning
See what you think - ruclips.net/video/jEalWVZtSl0/видео.html
I have been here dozens of times when the tides out you can walk along the beach to a place called Boggles Hole and there is a large youth hostel there.
That sounds great - what happens when the tide comes in does that mean the hostel is trapped by the sea?
In Robin Hoods Bay re, Brown's sweet shop. All those premises either side of the shop were owned by Mrs Brown. It was a newsagents and general shop. She used to drive round in a grey mini van delivering papers. In her later years she used to sit on the balcony and you just helped yourself to a paper and leave the money. The fish box at the top of the hill was a general cafe and ice cream kiosk up to a couple of years ago.
Ah thank you Robin - didn't know that!
What a lovely place eh!
Thank you for watching my channel it really does mean a lot 👍
My mother, young sister and I stayed for a week in a converted railway carriage at the top of the bay 62 years ago. I can't recall many holiday-makers or tourists (if any) and the village was not geared for such visitors at the time. The weather was fine and I got slightly sunburnt. I remember the climbs back up the hill. Also buying potato crisps and pop at The Bay Hotel. It felt adventurous, atmospheric and the stuff of fantasies.
Perfect! I bet it was better pre-tourists too!
Went a few years ago. It's lovely to sit and watch the sea and beautiful views. Best coast line ever. Well wishes to you.
Thanks, you too!
Thank you so much for watching my channel it means so much to me 👍
I have never been but will be going this fall. I enjoyed your video. Well done
Thank you so much!❤️
Ok you want comments.....the three most steepest seaside villages I. ever visited were this one...and Fowey in Cornwall. And the steepest is Clovelly where they have jeeps to bring you back up....They are both as pretty and interesting as Robin hood's bay .
Ooooh now we are talking Nigel 👍
I have been to Fowey and filmed that for the channel but can’t remember it so going to watch that back now!
Never been to Clovelly so will add that to the filming list - thank you!
Hope you are safe and well ❤️
I come to Robin Hood's Bay every single year but not this year due to the covid 19 outbreak but seeing this has done me good I was starting to get withdrawal symptoms Ha Ha
thanks a lot.
Ah you’re very welcome Darrell thank you for watching it means a lot
Great memories, longline fishing between the scars. Used to help the urchin man who had a stall on the ramp.
Dad was a coastguard, the coastguard station was reached using the road on the right just after the bridge at the foot of the hill. Probably happiest days of my childhood in the early 60’s
Amazing! That sounds like perfection Glen ♥️
im doing a coastel walk this saturday from ravenscar to whitby taking in robin hoods bay only 10 miles thank you for the video i now know were to go in the bay.
Hi I'm going Saturday for the first time ! Great video 👍
Thanks - have a lovely time!!
excellent video? we stayed at the bay hotel few years ago during a storm,waves were pounding on the walls......we are back again soon and looking forward to a few beers and some good old fashioned fish n chips
Perfect! Have a great time!!
Thank you for watching my channel and my videos it really means a lot to me 👍
Yes! Many times!
Ah lovely! Can't beat it!
Yes, it’s a very picturesque place.
So much to see and look at.
Thanks for showing us.
Thank you too Beryl!
Hope you're having a good week!
Definitely one of England's little gems. We always pay a visit when in North Yorkshire. You certainly do it justice in your walk. Only downside is the trek back up to the top. PHEW.
Ha ha that's soooo true although you should drive along the coast to Runswick Bay and see THAT hill - that one nearly killed me (really!)
Love Robin hoods Bay stop up in the Victoria Hotel at top of the hill great views from ther outdoor seating areas
True - that hotel is magnificent
I’ve recently just moved from here to Scarborough, I lived in the village for 5 years. I used to work at the Elle Estelles cafe! Such a beautiful little village 😊
Hey Lauraa,
You've picked a beautiful place to live! I'm jealous!
Thank you for watching my channel and my videos it really means a lot to me 👍
Paul Simpson Hi Paul, yes that’s a big possibility. I only left in February this year. Thank you so much :)
Visited many times over the years. Oh for a pint in Ye Dolphin again. You would make a useless smuggler if you are scsred of spiders. Its a lovely easy coastal walk back to Whitby, where you get to see Whitby jet columns rising from the sea and Whitby Abbey from the "Other Side".
Ha ha I'd be rubbish as a smuggler then as I'm definitely not one for spiders! 🤣
I prefer natural sounds too.....I used to love visiting Robin Hoods Bay in the early 1970s...no cars in the village then...apparently these bays were popular with pirates and smugglers in the day. I'm a new subscriber and really enjoying going on these walks 😊 thank you
Beautiful area. Tide certainly goes out a long way, beaches lovely. I have only been here via video with Abbie Barnes. This is much better. Thanks.
Lovely place to visit been there a few times over the past 3 decades
Agreed! Lovely place!
I have never been to Robins Hood Bay before but I would like to visit it sometime.
Can definitely recommend it but beware of the hill it’s a big one!
Such a beautiful place, lovely video with awesome music was put together perfect thank you , I want live there...
Thank you very much! Lovely place!
Lovely footage, thankyou, and I will definitely visit the galley for a coffee on my next trip. I had to mute the sound though, and would have loved to have heard just natural sounds. Cheers.
Thanks Paula!
Sometimes I put music on to drown out wind noise and also to experiment to see what works and is most popular as I"m still learning!
Lovely video! I love Rubin Hoods Bay so worth a visit. Can I suggest that you visit Clitheroe in Lancashire? It’s a lovely little town with a castle, very quaint. Also the village of Waddington about 30mins walk north of the centre of Clitheroe. It’s stunning! Beautiful little stream running through it, stone bridges, roses, gorgeous cottages……
I’m going on Saturday, so excited.
Have fun! It's such a great place
Love Robins Hood Bay lovely whatever time of year. Going soon!!
Ah great!! Have a wonderful time Anne!!
Me and my wife was here last week beautiful place
It really is!
I was there other day that pretty looking building was a police station back in the time due to the area known notorious smugglers paradise.Yes it was the smugglers tunnel.Great video
Ah that's amazing!
I love stories like that!
My husband loved Robin hoods Bay. Scarborough. Whitby.. After he died the family took some of his ashes to the sea at Robin hoods Bay and Scarborough. Your vidios bought back many happy memories.. I agree the music ls not in keeping.. Something classical, more soothing would be better.
Thanks Mary!
we always payed a visit to robin hoods bay when we were on holiday in Scarborough, haven't been there since the 70s though.
Do you think it’s changed at all Ian?
it doesn't look like it, i remember a big pipe/tunnel from the beach that us kids use to walk along.
Looking forward to my visit this month...cant wait..Great video
Have fun!
That's lovely...Great tour thank you x
You’re really welcome - lovely place!!
Two seaside places you must visit, in Wales, Llandudno and Tenby you'll love them
Filmed Llandudno today! Should be up next week on the channel!
Not heard of Tenby yet so will look it up now! Thank you so much for the suggestions!
Been there a few times there's terrys cottage there only 3 rooms but amazing cooks a fresh loaf of bread every morning fantastic
Perfection Bill!
Stayed in Beck Cottage in the late sixties many times to visit my late aunt Ada who owned the cottage at that time.
Aunt Ada married late in life, I seem to remember her husband was a local Gamekeeper.
My daughter went to Fyling Hall boarding school a few years later, so she spent a lot of time visiting her great aunt in Beck Cottage.
There is a blue plaque on the community centre (top of the Hill) to Ada, who I understand was an established pillar of the community in the late eighties.
I am sorry to say that I have never been back to the village.
Hopefully you can get back again sometime James!
Grange Over Sands in the South Lake District is a great little Victorian resort with a great promenade, views over Morecambe Bay and well worth a visit.
Thank you so much Stephen - I'd not heard of that place but wll definitely be filming there now!
Place was HEAVING on Tuesday Sept 8th! Car parks full and overflowing.......queues for drinks and eating places full......
Wow - I knew it was popular but didn't think it would be like that!
such a beautiful place, would love to retire there, fantastic video as usual.
Many thanks!
Thank you so much for watching my channel and my videos it really means a lot to me 👍
Love Robin Hood bay the chip shop at the bottom fantastic lovely small alley ways to wonder around Robin Hood bay museum is a great vist worth visiting the walk back up 😬🥵but worth it
The hill is steep but the one at Runswick Bay just down the road is way steeper! Have you been there?
@@GimbalWalkTV yes visit almost every year sine 2002
I loved every second of your fabulous video. I love Robin Hoods Bay. It's an long way down but if you stop and look at everything that is along the way you don't notice how steep it is. The shops are quaint and l love it. Going back up is hard going but it is so worth it. 😊😊😊😊🐱🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Oh thank you! Thank you for watching my channel Doe!
Robin Hoods Bay is definitely worth the hill! (and it's nowhere near as steep as Runswick Bay's hill!)
I found your channel by chance. I have watched a few, you have excellent camera come control. I had a holiday in Scarborough 22 years ago, was going to travel to robin hoods bay but never made it. Thanks for the video. What about Saltburn on sea? I looked in your channel list but not see it. Thanks for doing the videos. I am tempted to go there to robin hoods bay once all these restrictions settle down, your video made me think to go.
Thank you so much for saying that - it’s made my day! 😊 I did Saltburn here 👉 ruclips.net/video/iDxSdoRKlZM/видео.html
Hope you enjoy and thank you again for your kind words they really meant a lot to me 👍
