    Spent our honeymoon in a family owned caravan at Flamborough in 1972. In recent times, we stay at the
    North Star hotel. Their full English is legendary. If you manage to finish it, the owner presents
    you with a drinking mug that says " I survived the North Star Grill."

    All their fish is caught locally and is some of the freshest I've ever tasted. Last visit, I enjoyed a large
    Pan fried sea bass, with fries and mushy peas. Would recommend this hotel to anyone without any hesitation.

    A visit to Bempton cliffs in 2001 started my love of birding. It’s since taken me to every continent and I’ve seen over 4,200 species from tiny hummingbirds to ostriches, but you still can’t beat ticking off the gannets, puffins, razorbills, guillemots, kittiwakes and fulmars at Bempton.
