A warm welcome at The Coachman Inn

The Coachman Inn looks like it is straight out of the set for Bridgerton (or Jane Austin if you haven't quite taken that regency romance leap). It is quite easy to imagine the Duke stepping down to rest his horses en route to his country estate here. Or perhaps that's just my Regency-obsessed imagination. It was built in 1776 and is a Grade II-listed Georgian coaching inn. I simply love the fact that it is still catering to travellers' needs nearly 250 years later! They certainly haven't stood still in that time - the whole place is beautifully and sympathetically…

A truly to pie for experience!

Pies are a truly British thing, their origins can be traced back to early medieval England. As children we sing about them - Sing a Song a Sixpence and Simple Simon met a Pieman. So it's not surprising that here on the Yorkshire Coast we have the most Pie-tastic place of all: the Piebald Inn in Hunmanby. If you are a lover of Pies - or just simply a lover of good, quality, homemade, heartwarming food - there is no better place. They famously have a pie for every week of the year - Yes! 52 types of Pie! Occasionally…

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…

THE NIK NAK SHOP – A LITTLE BIT OF EVERYTHING

I love a good shopping experience whether it's Food, Clothes, or Furniture it matters not. Just getting out and about and seeing what the shops have on offer is my kind of thing. There are some places where you can spend an age browsing at all the wonderful things they have, sometimes finding items you realise that you had either forgotten to buy previously or find something you didn’t even know you needed! Other times you will find a shop that has just about everything including a great team who will help you find exactly what you want. BACKPACK WITH REINS…
