- Join me for a walk around the stunning seaside village of Robin Hood's Bay, a historic hive of smuggling perched on the cliffs of the spectacular Yorkshire coast. Today a popular holiday destination, this historic fishing village is made up of an impenetrable maze of centuries-old lanes and alleyways, but hides riveting history at every corner!
On our walk around Robin Hood's Bay, we pass a number of interesting landmarks, including Coble Head, The Bay Hotel, the Old Coastguard Station, Robin Hood's Bay Dock, Robin Hood's Bay beach, the old lifeboat station, The Smugglers' Bar, Robin Hood's Bay Congregational Church, The Bay Museum (former Coroner's Room), the Old Police Station (Beckfield), King's Beck, The Laurel Inn, Chapel Street, King Street, Robin Hood's Bay sea walls, Ye Dolphin pub, Robin Hood's Bay Men's Institute, the Old Post Office, Coble Head and the beach once again.

Good evening! This Wednesday - in place of our normal captioned walk - I'm trying something a bit different, a narrated 'redux' of one of my favourite walks on the channel, around the heart of wonderful Robin Hood's Bay! If you'd like to see more narrated reduxes of old walks, do let me know in the comments - and I'll look to add them to our weekly roster of videos :)
There's a heap of history to Robin Hood's Bay, and there were a few things we didn't quite touch on in this walk! For instance, on Coble Head just outside the Old Coastguard Station is the RNLI Fish, a small iron fish statue from 1886 which is both the smallest listed building in the UK, and the world's oldest lifeboat collection box!
Also, a word on the pronunciation of 'coble', which - as someone from inland and down south - has given me a bit of a headache. In this video, I've said the word as rhymes with 'cobble', which according to my research is the common way to say the word along this part of the Yorkshire coast. Up towards Northumberland, however, 'coble' rhymes with 'noble', which is where the words differ. Do let me know if that's right if you know the case, I'd love to make 100% sure :)
More narrated videos please, this is a lovely part of the country to both visit and holiday in, or even just go for a walk enjoy the views and enjoy this well kept village.
Just found your channel. And Iv got to say!! It’s great. 👍🏼👍🏼
Your vídeos make me feel so good. Thank you! From Brazil
Thanks once again for a lovely narrated walk through and around one of my favourite places in Yorkshire. Looking forward to more from you. 💚
Very much appreciate your narration, whilst retaining the ambient sounds.
Thanks for that fascinating video.
What a picturesque little village. Def wanna go there some day!
Robin hood bay is really great place to visit. I stay at middle wood farm caravan park and enjoy walk down when I am there on holiday.
What a lovely and fascinating place! Great video, very interesting and informative! Thank you! 😊
What a marvelous tour of this wonderful place. I don't know which to praise first the video or your wonderful narration. 5 Stars, Thanks.

Cool video and history lesson on this quaint little pretty village.
Very beautiful village. Very informative. A lot to take in. Thanks.
Another great narrated video. Thank you.
Great walk. Really enjoyed the views and the information. More like this would be welcome. Thankyou
Yay I love these narrated tours
Such a lovely village, I've been to Scarborough, Whitby and Bridlington but never there, will definitely be making a detour. I also need there to be a shop where I live to he called Tea Toast and Post 😄👍
Nice!!! I'd rather hear your voice than read captions. Greetings from FL.
Nice walk at Robin Hoods Bay I enjoyed it can't wait to see more soon. Your history lessons are always great and your walks are always enjoyable. Very beautiful and historical. How is your week? My week is going great. Have a great day greetings from Canada 😀

Marvellous!
8:57 I used to deliver flour 40 years ago to a bakery/ cafe over the bridge and up those, company I worked for had a couple short wheel based Bedford TK's that could get down the hill and around the S bend
So interesting if they showed videos like this in schools I’m sure the kids would learn a lot more well done 👍🏻 new subscriber
First time we’ve seen your vlog. Really enjoyed it!
lovely place XX
It was a real treat seeing Robin hood's bay again. Thank you for a fascinating tour and I enjoyed the narration too.
The narrow passages are so unique and inviting, I wonder how many times you got lost? Even google couldn't navigate out of those. :)
Thank you and I look forward to the next video.
Your narrated tours are an excellent improvement.
Regards Larry
amazing.
I'm your Fan.
Michael Portillo's Great Coastal Railways Journey (broadcast on the 10th of February) mentioned cobles, he pronounced it as in noble. I started watching the Robin Hood narrated walk and thought it was familiar. I searched for it and I hadn't gone mad, I had seen it before. Then I saw your comments saying you had added the narration.
What a lovely, morning stroll around a beautiful village. This is my second CZcams visit. Ant, of Trekking and Towpaths fame, took us through the smugglers' tunnel a few months ago but we never saw much of the village above ground. It would confuse me for sure; it looked like you were wandering through folks' gardens. No wonder the tourists get lost.😂
It says a lot for your narrating voice and your clear pronunciation; the CZcams subtitles were perfect. Usually, they are quite comical to follow, struggling to reproduce even the simplest of sentences but they had no trouble with your narrative.👍😁
From what I'm reading in the comments, it appears that this walk is a "re-mastered" version of a previous, subtitled wander. If you plan to convert all of your past videos, that's going to be a big job. Is it a fairly straightforward process? I hope so, cos you've got quite a few to do.😲
very nice video
Absolutely stunning video, the weather helped but on a UHD television it was like actually being there, it was so natural.
The commentary was as usual brilliant and so well researched.
I’ve only ever got to the car park at the top of the village before chickening out of struggling down to the harbour and back, my tin leg makes steep walks difficult.
Well done, again, looking forward to more videos with commentaries.
Déjà Vu ... lol
