Flamborough Cliffs Nature Reserve

Flamborough · YO15 1BJ

WAGFINDER No photo yet · the business adds these when they claim

The Yorkshire Wildlife Trust's stretch of clifftop between Thornwick Bay and Breil Nook, a mile and a half of chalk grassland and sea-pink ledges with puffins, kittiwakes and razorbills below and the odd bottlenose dolphin offshore. The Trust's own reserve page gives the dog rule as on a lead, and asks you to pick up after your dog and use a bin, which is stricter than the council land either side of it. The way in is the coastal public footpath from the North Landing car park, and the Trust warns the path is hilly and steep in places with steps, and to take extra care in wind. Parking is not the Trust's own: use the charged car parks at North Landing or Thornwick Bay, with seasonal toilets and a cafe at North Landing. There is a picnic area on the reserve itself.

THE SMALL PRINTYorkshire Wildlife Trust rule, not a council order: dogs on a lead on the reserve at all times, and pick up after your dog and use a bin. No seasonal ban applies, and the beaches below at Thornwick and North Landing are outside the East Riding dog exclusion order and free of any lead requirement.

Beach DOGS WELCOME Dogs all year

Danes Dyke Beach

YO15 1AF
Dogs allowed all year

A sheltered chalk and shingle cove at the foot of the wooded ravine, reached by a stepped path of about half a mile down from the reserve car park. The council's dog PSPO names only Bridlington North, Bridlington South, Hornsea and Withernsea, so there is no seasonal ban here and no lead requirement in law at any time of year. The reserve's own code of conduct asks that dogs are kept under close control and picked up after, which in practice means a lead on the woodland path and freedom on the shingle. There is no lifeguard, the cove cuts off on a big tide, and the beck runs out across the stones so there is fresh water to drink. Pay and display parking for about 80 cars at the top, with toilets open all year and a summer kiosk.

Danes Dyke Nature Reserve

YO15 1DU
No reviews yet

Fifty acres of woodland dropping down a steep ravine to the sea, on the line of the prehistoric earthwork that cuts clean across the Flamborough headland from here to Cat Nab on Bempton Cliffs. The council's countryside service asks only that dogs are kept under close control and picked up after, so there is no lead rule and no seasonal ban anywhere on the reserve or its beach. The tree trail and the ravine paths are soft underfoot and shaded, which makes this the sensible Flamborough option on a hot day when the clifftops are baking. Pay and display parking for about 80 cars sits on the site of the demolished Danes Dyke House off Flamborough Road, with toilets open all year and a kiosk in season. A bridleway leaves the top of the exit road, crosses the ravine and heads over the golf course to Sewerby.
