Our drawing of the route, over road and path data from OpenStreetMap. It shows where the walk goes and what it goes through. It is not a survey and not a navigation aid — carry OS Explorer on the hill. Off-lead information here is what walkers reported or what signage allows — never our advice. Whether and when a dog is off the lead is the owner’s decision and legal responsibility; keep dogs under control near livestock and follow signs on the day.
A short shore wander south from Robin Hood's Bay across becks, pebbles and sandy stretches to Boggle Hole, with grey and common seals hauled out further along towards Ravenscar. The YHA cafe at Boggle Hole does nachos ample for sharing and a coffee-and-cake combo before the walk back.
A cosy village bistro that welcomes one well-behaved dog per party, though space is tight so large dogs cannot be accommodated. Booking ahead is recommended, particularly in season.
Glen-Lyn is a place to stay on Station Road, Robin Hood's Bay. It is listed here so you know it is there, but we have not yet established whether dogs are welcome — so there is no verdict on this page and no stamp. If it is your business, claim the page and tell us, and we will stamp it.
A clifftop Victorian hotel at the top of the village with dedicated dog-friendly rooms in The Captain's Quarters, at £10 per dog per night. Dog bowls, a blanket and treats are laid out for your dog before you arrive, and the beach is a ten-minute amble down through the village.

Know one we have missed?
Local knowledge beats desk research every time. Name the place and we will check it properly — the venue's own policy, confirmed, then stamped and dated like every other listing.
One short email when we add places or a council changes its beach rules. No noise, easy out.
