The White House Inn, Whitby

You’d be forgiven if you’re not so familiar with Whitby if you haven’t come across this little gem of a place before. Just off the mini roundabout as you head towards Sandsend coming out of Whitby. Essentially, it’s the last house on the West Cliff. This prominent building used to be the clubhouse to the Golf Course many moons ago – as this old picture shows. It still has a slight feel of a stylish clubhouse, with its wonderful panoramic views across the golf course and right across the bay towards Sandsend. It certainly takes some beating. The tasteful, modern…

As American as Apple Pie?

I accept Americans make great Apple Pie but it was Jane Austin that said: Good Apple Pies are a considerable part of our domestic happiness ...and you can't get more English than Austin! So at this perfect apple harvesting time I'm claiming back Apple Pie for the UK. Here's my simple, but most delicious, version of Apple Pie - enjoy! Ingredients For the pastry: (you could just buy some ready made but one pack of ready rolled isn't quite enough to do the bottom and top of a pie, unless its a small dish) 225g/8oz Plain Flour (or use Self…

Afternoon Tea on the Yorkshire Coast

There is nothing quite so British as Afternoon Tea. It immediately conjures an image of little bite-sized sandwiches, a selection of cakes and scones stacked temptingly on a three-tier tea stand alongside a pot of Earl Grey tea with delicate fine china. In my mind, this is served on a beautiful green lawn while dressed in floaty white clothes and a fabulous sun hat - but maybe that's just me? 🤔 It is said that the tradition originates from the 1840s and is attributed to Anna Maria Russell, Duchess of Bedford. She came up with the concept because her husband…
