A Cosy Romantic Cottage Stay

Would it be romantic if it wasn’t cosy? Cosy is what we have here in Robin Hood’s Bay. Red pantile rooftops, stacked up cottages and cobbled alleyways. Smoking chimneys, the roar of the sea and chatter of seagulls filling the air.

Quirky and cute, some big enough to comfortably sleep four or more yet perfectly sized for just two. Some with log fires, sea views or dog friendly. No cottage in Robin Hood’s Bay is far from the beach or coastal walks. Everything you need is right here on the doorstep, the local stores, restaurants, cafes and little independent shops. You’ll never have to leave.

Romantic Beach Walk’s

Is there anything more romantic than strolling hand in hand along the beach. Wrapped up in winter, cuddled together as you walk in the fresh crisp sea air. Light clothes blowing in the sea breeze in summer walking barefoot in the sand. The calming sounds of the sea lapping at the shore. Exploring rock pools for crabs and starfish. Sounds of seabirds all around you, dramatic cliffs and the stunning Ravenscar headland. Gazing as far out to sea as the eye will let you. This is romantic Robin Hood’s Bay.

Cosy Pub Lunch

Blustery winter days and stormy seas where better to retreat to than a cosy pub for lunch. Rip roaring fires and hand warming glasses of mulled wine. In the brisk winter months you can always count on the Bay Hotel to be your pub lunch haven. Sit by the window and watch the stormy seas as the waves crash against each other.

For an unspoiled view over the bay grab a table in the Orangery at the Victoria Hotel. Enjoy a light lunch whilst gazing over the rooftops of the old village across to the Ravenscar Headland. In the summer months enjoy lunch in the garden breathing in the fresh sea air as you watch the sun glisten over the ripples of the sea.

Star Gazing

What can be more stunning than looking up at the night sky and seeing a thousand stars. What is more romantic than lying hand in hand staring up at the sky spotting stars. Head down to the Quarterdeck, blankets in hand and a flask of hot chocolate. Lie down on the benches let your eyes adjust and marvel at the twinkling dots gazing back at you.

You may think stars are well just stars but here they are extra special. The North York Moors National Park is an International Dark Sky Reserve. Here it’s possible to see meteorites, the Milky Way, Planets and shooting stars.

Watch the Sunrise or Sunset

Watching the sunrise and the sunset are possibly two of the most romantic things you can do. But, then there’s something about the coast. Watching the sun rise or set over the sea makes it so much more special. Red, pink, orange and purple skies. The sunsets are just as spectacular in winter as they are in summer. And, you won’t have to get up so early or stay up late to catch them. Don’t forget the camera and the blankets to snuggle up warm together while you sit and gaze.
