Breaks in Robin Hood’s Bay – Robin Hood’s Bay Hotels Nov 26

For a pleasant dose of sun and sea during your next holiday, pay a visit to Robin Hood’s Bay on the Norfolk coast. Local legend says that Robin Hood himself fought a group of pirates who had stolen the villagers’ possessions, and returned their belongings to them. The maze-like cobbled streets that wind through the town provide it with a distinctly romantic character, lending a charmingly old-fashioned feel to many parts of the village.
