Brian's driving and impeccable route planning made the drive to Hunmanby a pleasant experience, by-passing the larger towns and avoiding any major hold-ups. We were going to stop for breakfast at Far Ings nature reserve (as usual) but arrived before it opened! However, just to the east was a terrific garden centre, where I couldn't resist pancakes and maple syrup!
The cottage (appropriately called 'The Snug'!) was clean and comfortable and situated among a cluster of newly-built retirement cottages: the inhabitants were keen to chat every time we passed! The only minor setback was our failure to work out how to access terrestrial TV on the overly-complicated widescreen set, meaning (to Brian's delight!) that I couldn't watch the England vs Croatia match!
An enjoyable stay (sadly without Norman, who was with family in the North West ) with fish and chips two nights in a row and a delightful Indian meal in Scarborough on the last evening.
