How to get there The club is situated a mile or so south of Bridlington town. The nearest postcode for your SatNav is YO15 3QJ (position shown on the map below). Entering coordinates N 54 o 03.454, W 0 o 12.818 is more accurate. Approaching on the A614 from Driffield or York, turn right at the first roundabout in Carnaby, which then takes you to the second Carnaby roundabout (shown on the map) where you turn left onto the A165 Hull to Bridlington road. At the next roundabout (signposted to Park & Ride) turn right, then right again at the next mini roundabout, then left at the T junction. As you approach the sea the road turns you right towards the dinghy park. The entrance to the camping field is on the right directly opposite the slipway entrance. Dotted line on map shows route. Local attractions: Bridlington offers all the traditional attractions of a seaside resort. Behind the town lie the relatively undiscovered Yorkshire Wolds, beautiful chalk downs that are gaining increasing fame through the landscapes of East Riding born David Hockney who has forsaken LA for Brid. The Wolds meet the sea at spectacular Flamborough Head. Just round from the Head is the famous bird sanctuary at Bempton Cliffs, where there are colonies of puffins, gannets, razorbills and guillemots. Nature lovers can also enjoy Hornsea Mere and Spurn Point further down the coast. The stately homes of Sledmere and Burton Agnes are well worth a visit, as is Castle Howard (‘Brideshead’) just a bit further afield. Alternatively you can walk the ancient streets of Beverley or York, or visit Hull Old Town which houses the Museums Quarter, where you can see the merchants’ houses alongside the River Hull, including that of William Wilberforce. Just a step or two away is the Deep,the largest oceanarium in the world. Heading north up the coast you come to the classic seaside resort of Scarborough watched over by its historic castle and beyond that Whitby, the former whaling port that is dominated by the atmospheric St Hilda's Abbey andSt Mary's church, supposedly the burial place of Count Dracula, a mecca for the Goth community. [Come back for Whitby's Goth Weekend at the end of October or the Goth Spring Festival; the costumes are something to behold!] Behind Whitby and Scarborough stretches the glorious walking country of the North York Moors National Park. If you are of a lazier disposition, you can view it from the comfort of the North York Moors Steam Railway or the picturesque Esk Valley line. And where the Moors come down to the sea there are more quaint fishing ports like Robin Hood's Bay, Runswick Bay and Staithes (setting for Old Jack's Boat for those of you who watch CBeebies with your kids or grandkids). If you would like any more recommendations for what to see and do, Syd will be pleased to help. So get your bags packed and your accommodation booked and head for Yorkshire's promised land!
