Discover the Yorkshire Coast in 2026
Exceptional stays, extraordinary moments, effortlessly close to home with Anchor Bay Holidays
Imagine deciding on a Thursday morning that you need a change of scene, and by the following morning, you could be unlocking the door to a stylish sea-view apartment, settling in by the log burner, and listening to the waves as they lull you into a slower pace.
For those seeking a midweek escape, many of their properties offer gap deals, including four nights for the price of three during off-peak periods, and with selected dog-friendly cottages, one dog stays free. If spontaneity truly calls, a selection of homes is even available for one-night stays, making it easier than ever to turn an ordinary week into an extraordinary coastal retreat.
Whether you’re organising a big family gathering, a romantic weekend, a multi-generation celebration, or an unplanned long weekend by the sea, the Yorkshire coast offers a rare blend of serenity, culture, wildlife, and year-round experiences.
Where Big Experiences Meet Beautiful Simplicity
The Yorkshire coast isn’t just scenic, it’s alive with things to do, discover and savour, no matter the season.
In spring and early summer, the iconic RSPB Bempton Cliffs become a wildlife spectacle like no other as puffins, gannets and razorbills nest along the world-famous chalk cliffs. Further along the headland, Flamborough Head Lighthouse is one of the best places in the UK for seal spotting, cliff-top walks, and dramatic coastal photography. For those who like to venture offshore, a local boat cruise reveals sea caves once used by smugglers, a glimpse into Yorkshire’s intriguing maritime past.
Culture lovers will find plenty to indulge in, too. Scarborough Open Air Theatre attracts globally-recognised artists every summer, transforming a warm coastal evening into an unforgettable night under the stars. Meanwhile, food festivals, kite festivals, sand sculpture events and seasonal celebrations fill the calendar from New Year through to Christmas. And for those who enjoy the unexpected, few things are as uniquely Yorkshire as the hot-rod track car racing on Bridlington Beach, where speed meets sea spray in a truly thrilling spectacle.
Whether you return year after year or discover something new each visit, this coastline offers that rare combination: tranquillity for the soul and excitement for the senses.

A Story Rooted in Passion, and the Place We Call Home
Anchor Bay Holidays was founded by long-standing local property owners who believed the Yorkshire coast deserved more: more care, more quality, and a more personalised approach than the mass-market agencies could offer.
Today, that owner-led ethos remains at the heart of everything they do. From their origins at The Bay and the cherished town of Filey, the portfolio has grown to encompass some of the most desirable stretches of coastline across Sewerby, Scarborough, and Bridlington.
