Places around Scarborough to visit

[chocki]

Going to Scarborough on Monday for a few days. Anyone got suggestions as to where to go around Scarborough. Don't mind a hours drive or so away. Just want something different, places to visit. I know there's Whitby, Bridlington etc but any other suggestions would be appreciated

 

Thank you

Scarborough lot's to see it is well worth the visit walk on the sea front from the north side to the south or catch an open top bus, go to the castle fine views, Flambrough Head, great view's, Bridlington nice for a few hour's, walk on the cliff tops up to Sewerby Hall and grounds, drive to Whitby and take the steam train to Pickering a good day out over the north yorks moors, enjoy north yorkshire.

What do you usually enjoy doing? earlier this summer we did the following:

 

North York Moors railway from Pickering to Whitby

Cycling from Scarborough to Whitby along the Cinder Track

Hayburn Wyke - good pubs and woodland walks down to the beach

Staithes

Robin Hoods Bay

Goathland

Helmsley Castle

 

Staithes (old bit) is OK if you want to walk for miles down a steep hill to see a maritime museum who's curator is so old they should be in a museum themselves (model boats and bits of old rope mainly … antique lobster pot or two).

 

Robin Hood's Bay is OK if you want to walk for miles down a very steep hill to see some cottages, a shop that sells tat, and the sea itself (better view from the car park at the top, before setting off downhill on legs.

 

Goathland, or Goatland (AKA Baphomet) as it should be called, is a desolate shrine to '60's police goddess Nick Berry, situated bang centre of the middle of nowhere. If you love old Ford Anglia police cars in various stages of decay, tat shops dedicated to selling anything with a picture of aforementioned Mr.Berry, this is the place to go. (the rubbish steam train stops here leaving you stranded for hours with nothing better to do than marvel at Nick Berry memorabilia and stare at goats, who for reasons known only to themselves, prefer to stand in the far distance).

 

Never been to Helmsley Castle, but visited millions in wi-fi-less Wales. Castles.
