Bridlington is a seaside town and fishing port in East Yorkshire. It was originally two towns: the Old Town, about a mile inland, grew up around the medieval Augustinian priory, while Bridlington Quay was the fishing settlement and harbour. The two merged in the mid-19th C when the railway arrived and Bridlington developed rapidly as a resort.

Get Around

Access

Bridlington is a very accessible town for people with mobility issues. It is flat, unlike Filey or Scarborough further along the ruggedNorth Yorkshire Coast - the cliffs rear up just north of town but gradients are mild between the centre and the beaches. The harbour area can be a little tricky to explore as much of it is cobbled or has steps. Mobility scooters can be hired by the day or week and many can be seen on the promenades on the front. Several guest houses and self-catering places have spaces for scooters to be kept by guests.

More Muslim friendly Destinations from Bridlington

  • To the north, Scarborough and Filey are agreeable nearby beach resorts, easily done as day trips by bus or train. The coast further north is rugged and scenic, with the little harbour of Robin Hood's Bay and then gothic Whitby.
  • Inland, explore theNorth York Moors National Park.
  • To the south is the small resort of Hornsea, a 1950s time-warp and then come the strange "toffee-castle" cliffs of East Yorkshire. Here the soft hills of the Wolds are being rapidly eroded by the sea, leaving farm buildings dangling over the edge or crumpled sideways on the shore, while humbug-hued turrets of ground await the next high tide. Erosion is so rapid that even a recent map is likely to be out of date, with access roads closed off, or gone over the edge to join the medieval villages drowned offshore. These 5-10 m high cliffs stretch for some 20 miles and then the coast becomes sand hills. It culminates in Spurn Point, a nature reserve - look out for birds, moths, butterflies and huge ships churning past the lighthouse along the Humber.
  • York, some 40 miles east, is a must-see and for big city amusements head for Leeds.Copyright 2015 - 2024. All Rights reserved by eHalal Group Co., Ltd.
