🎃 🍁🍦

It’s cooling down but grab ya jacket and head for the crunchy leaves 🍂 🍁

One of the most popular flavours at the moment is our Pumpkin Spice Ice Cream! 🍦 🎃

If you’ve never had it before then you’ll most likely be glad to know that it doesn’t contain any pumpkin! Just our own blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and cloves combined with our deliciously creamy ice cream! 🤩

*******************************

We’re currently open:
Monday - Friday 9am-4pm⏰
Saturday and Sunday 9am-5pm⏰

Looking for a seaside adventure this summer?
There are lots of shipwrecks to explore and here are some of the ones we’ve visited.

As a family we love a good adventure and I love a walk so thankfully there are lots of shipwrecks to discover along the coast. A walk with a purpose is always a win win for us and let’s face it, who doesn’t love the excitement of finding a real life shipwreck.

Some of them are really easy to find and some of them are more of a walk in a certain direction! I have added the what3words location for the more difficult ones.

Depending on the tidal range only certain wrecks will be visible and also the level of the sand will contribute to how much of the wreck you can see. On one occasion I saw the Reighton Sands wreck on a very low tide and low sand distribution and another time it was mostly hidden. Don’t get your hopes up too high.

I do need to put in a disclaimer that you must check tide times carefully before you set out to be sure not to get cut off by the tide.

Here are the links to my posts with pictures and instructions.

Reighton Sands
A proper pirate adventure the bottom of the wreck when visible is amazing to see. https://www.facebook.com/100063692104520/posts/168222155310854/?d=n

Flamborough North Landing
The wreck of the SS Rosa is on the left hand side of the bay in the water, although this post concentrates on the visit to the cave. https://www.facebook.com/2152842628159262/posts/2171045309672327/?d=n

Cleethorpes
Please take care of the mud flats and getting cut off by the rising tide. https://www.facebook.com/100063692104520/posts/255677629898639/?d=n

Saltwick Bay
Perhaps the most impressive and photographic of the wrecks I love this adventure as it includes fossil hunting! If you walk back to Whitby you’ll also see the wreck of MV Creteblock. https://www.facebook.com/100063692104520/posts/429059739227093/?d=n

Whitby
MV Creteblock caught aground on the scar under the cliffs at Whitby. You can access this one at low tide from Whitby, heading south to Saltwick Bay.

Sandsend
A fantastic ship wreck that is only fully revealed on a super low tide (only 6 tides a year) This one isn’t easily accessed and there are cut off points on the beach if you’re walking from Sandsend so you must know your tides.
