As a keen photographer we were very close to RSPB bempton. Early mornings were spent on the cliff edge and late evenings also. This left all day for visiting local coastal towns such as Scarborough and Whitby. The weather was a huge bonus and allowed us to make the most of every day. Having the bungalow to come back to each evening was enjoyable. A quiet location and very comfortable place to stay. Will definitely return..
