'Picture postcard' UK village with fossil hunting and secret beach is hidden
Runswick Bay, just nine miles north of Whitby, has earned rave reviews from visitors, who have praised its "secluded" bay, "gorgeous" beach and "amazing views" - and it's easy to see why A picturesque North Yorkshire coast village has been named one of England's best-kept secrets – and it's no wonder why. The delightful Runswick Bay, tucked away just nine miles from Whitby between Sandsend and Staithes, has captivated visitors with its "secluded" bay, "gorgeous" beach, and "amazing views," as noted by York Press. Perched on the brink of the North Sea, the quaint village scored an impressive 4.5 out of 5 stars on Tripadvisor and has now been highlighted by Millets as one of the nation's hidden jewels in their latest travel recommendations. Outdoor experts at Millets assembled their hidden treasures list using insights from Reddit, TikTok, and various travel features, before validating their selections with Tripadvisor ratings to showcase the cream of the crop. Millets' blog writer and adventure aficionado Sam Chadwick remarked: "In recent years, more people have uncovered the joy of being outdoors, with favourites like Mam Tor and Scafell Pike becoming increasingly popular. We've curated a list of England's hidden treasures for those seeking tranquil escapes amidst nature.", reports the Express. Runswick Bay absolutely lives up to this description. Touted on its official website as 'a picture postcard North Yorkshire coastal village, boasting a mile of secluded bay and gorgeous beach', the spot is favoured by fossil hunters, ramblers, and even those hoping to glimpse a dolphin or seal amid the surf. Its sandy shores sit along the Cleveland Way, a renowned walking route gracing the coastline. The bay is a haven for sandcastle architects and budding explorers eager to discover rockpools at low tide, while the jetty becomes a prime spot for crabbing during the high tide. "Seals, dolphins and whales have all been spotted in the waters, which are excellent for fishing, especially cod and mackerel," the travel site notes. The spot has received over 400 effusive reviews on Tripadvisor, with many reviewers highlighting the "relaxing" ambiance of the beachfront café. One happy visitor shared their experience: "We walked here from Staithes, lovely walk with amazing views (steep in places). Well worth the walk! Cafe at Runswick bay was lovely, great coffee and cakes, lovely place to sit and relax before walking back. We had our dog in tow and she was made welcome at the cafe." Another satisfied guest enthused: "Absolutely stunning! Well worth a walk along the beach and doing a bit of fossil hunting, glass spotting, shell collecting. Lovely ice cream." Commenting on their Easter weekend visit, another reviewer remarked: "We are here for easter weekend, we visited the lovely modern cafe just on the beachfront, delicious cakes and light bites and beverages. Lovely staff and plenty of seats although we imagine it will get busy. Will definitely be back as its perfectly positioned to sit eat a slice of yummy cakes and a cuppa tea while u admire the views. The beach was great so happy to see so many dogs enjoying themselves and not a poo bag in sight as mentioned previously. We found so lovely fossils so interesting." One visitor was so enchanted by the BBC's 'Villages by the Sea' that they felt compelled to see Runswick Bay for themselves. "Had to come here as Ben Robinson the archaeologist came here from his programmes 'Villages by the Sea' and he was not not wrong, beautiful houses, I found most of what he showed on his programme. Lovely walk and dog run along the beach. Fabulous, Thanks Ben." Wondering about parking at Runswick Bay? "The car park closest to the beach is chargeable throughout spring and summer, but get in quick as there are only 80 spaces. Pop the postcode TS13 5HT into your satnav and you're away. You'll pay a minimum charge of £3.00 between the months of March and October." They also mention: "In busier periods, you'll find a second car park at the top of the hill, a bit further away from the beach. With over 100 spaces and charged at £6 for 24 hours, it's well worth the trek, even just for the breathtaking views along the way." Do bear in mind that car park charges are subject to change.

They could be seen enjoying country walks and some family time. CHRISTINE TEXTS The family's trip away comes just days after The Sun exclusively revealed how Jacqueline's husband Dan had previously sent flirty texts with Christine McGuiness. Dan had joined Christine for raucous nights out that helped lift her spirits after her split from radio and TV host husband Paddy. At the time, reality star Dan was still building bridges with Jacqueline over previous cheating claims. Our source said of Christine and Dan's texts: 'She is absolutely adamant nothing sexual happened between them. 'She also was 100 per cent single at the time and could chat to anyone she wanted.' Former Towie star Dan is adamant nothing happened romantically between the pair, even suggesting that the text messages between them were 'deep fakes or AI' when asked.

It came after the EastEnders star posted a stunning photo in a plunging black gown a few days ago. She captioned her post: 'BRITISH SOAP AWARDS 2025. Celebrating 40 years of EASTENDERS with 8 wins isn't too bad.' Dan commented beneath it: 'Beautiful!' and the comment was liked by hundreds of people. 5 The family were seen enjoying idyllic country walks Credit: Instagram A pal said: 'Dan is devoted to Jacqueline and would hate for any suggestion of impropriety. 'Of course, it's possible for a man and woman to be mates.' Earlier this year, The Sun revealed Dan had moved out of his and Jacqueline's home and into a property he had bought behind his wife's back. Both temporarily removed their wedding rings.

Mum-of-22 Sue Radford flies family back to Disney Florida weeks after spending £50k on the same trip for her birthday
Plus, the staggering price of flights for the bumper family MAGICAL YEAR Mum-of-22 Sue Radford flies family back to Disney Florida weeks after spending £50k on the same trip for her birthday Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) JUST months after parents-of-22 Sue and Noel Radford flew to Florida for Sue's £50,000 bumper 50th birthday trip - the family is back at Disney once more. The Morecambe-based brood has shared snaps from the popular holiday resort, including watching fireworks and enjoying giant slushies. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 7 Britain's biggest family - the Radfords - are back in Florida after visiting in April Credit: Instagram 7 The family enjoyed watching the fireworks on Disney Boardwalk Credit: Instagram 7 Sue Radford splashed an estimated £52,000 on her 50th birthday trip to Orlando in April Credit: Instagram Sue, who is mum to Britain's biggest family, showed how her kids had been enjoying Disney's Boardwalk in Orlando and how they had visited a cake shop with some delicious treats. After walking away with some bites, they then caught some fireworks going off in the nearby theme park. The kids then seemed thrilled as they got super-sized slushy drinks to enjoy. This follows the Radfords having a sun-soaked extravaganza in Florida in April, which is estimated to cost them £52,000. Despite telling The Daily Mirror they have been "feeling the pinch" financially, they said they planned to spare no expense on the holiday of a lifetime. Sue and Noel star in Channel 5's 22 Kids and Counting and also earn money from their business Radford's Pie Company. £26,000 flights Sue and her husband Noel not only took their own children to Florida in April, but all of their grandchildren with them too - making the most of the Easter break from school. Sue, 50, and Noel, 54, are parents to Chris, 36, Sophie, 31, Chloe, 29, Jack, 28, Daniel, 26, Luke, 24, Millie, 23, Katie, 22, James, 21, Ellie, 20, Aimee, 19, Josh, 17, Max, 16, Tillie, 15, Oscar, 13, Casper, 12, Haillie, 10, Phoebe, 8, Archie, 7, Bonnie, 6, and Heidie, 5. Sadly the couple's 17th child Alfie was still born on July 6, 2014. All in, the family are thought to have sent a jaw-dropping £26,228 on flights - and that's before the excess charges or any extra baggage. Millie Radford sparks concern of the family feud reigniting as she says she wants to go 'home' during Florida holiday It's not known if the whole family is back out for their second visit. £20k park tickets Based on the cost of a seven-day Disney visit, which would require each guest to hold a 7-Day Magic Ticket for entrance, Sue and Noel could have forked out £20,065 for each of their Florida trips this year. Luckily for Sue and Noel, children under the age of three go free. So some of the children on the trip won't cost a penny to get into the park. The tickets include access to the park and water parks with the eligibility to enter multiple parks per day. Holders will also have the 'memory maker' package which includes unlimited Disney photopass downloads - pictures taken by photographers around the park, on rides and in restaurants. 7 Sue shared how they visited an epic cake shop at Disney during this trip Credit: Instagram 7 The kids seemed thrilled at stocking up on some tasty treats Credit: Instagram £6k accommodation Sue and Noel have spoken about their approach to holiday accommodation previously, while appearing on the This Morning show - they revealed they usually opt for a villa to save costs and ensure the bunch can bunk close together. Last September, they shared an Orlando Villa Tour on their Facebook page to their 944,000 followers. One eagle-eyed viewer recognised the accommodation as similar to a property listed on rental site, Vrbo. The glam Vrbo house sleeps 15 - so Sue and Noel will need to book 3 to comfortably house all 39 travellers. The accommodation costs £300 per night, working out at £2,100 per villa for a week and £6,300 in total for all three. And that's without any food in the villa or out in the parks. 7 Renting holiday accommodation when you have 22 kids certainly doesn't come cheap Credit: Instagram 7 Sue during her first trip to Florida at Easter Credit: Instagram
