Bridlington Hotels and Guest Houses

Bridlington in East Riding of Yorkshire is a small and tranquil town of nearly 33.000 residents. This goes up drastically in the summer thanks to the fact that it lays on the North Sea. Even though Bridlington is officially in the East Riding of Yorkshire this is normally shortened to simply East Yorkshire.

There are not a lot of options to go to and from the town with the railway being the most used. This service leads from Kingston-on-Hull to Scarborough in North Yorkshire.

The town itself used to consist of two parts. The Old Town which is around 2km from the coast and hosts the local market as well as the mighty Priory church of St Mary. The old town was formerly known as Burlington. It is believed that Burlington, Massachusetts and Burlington, Ontario are named after this old town. Fact is, that Burlington and Burlington County in New Jersey are definitely named after the Old town of Bridlington. The other part of town is known as Bridlington quay which is home to 99% of the tourists and the local harbor. The main point of focus here is the harbor which is enclosed by two stone piers and on which a huge wheel has been built in the style of the "London Eye".

The main tourist attraction for Bridlington is not even located here. This honour belongs to Flamborough, which is host to the Flamborough Head. This is a more then 11km long headland with some dramatic and spectacular views out over the Sea. There are some excellent tracks here for hiking as well as for (mountain)-biking. Just in between Bridlington and Flamborough lies the quaint village of Sewerby where tourist flock together to visit the gardens and the museum located at Sewerby Hall. Another very quiet attraction is the Bempton Cliffs. This nature reserve is home to a lot of birds and sometimes even as many bird watchers. The Northern Gannet and the Atlantic Puffin breed here and one can see thousands of these birds along the cliffs.
