I went here with a dear friends over twenty years ago when we were both fit and healthy. Alas the years have taken their toll, as has some very powerful chemotherapy and although now in remission from Leukaemia, I am now reliant on a power buggy for all but the shortest of walks. My little buggy would never be able to get back up such a huge hill…..so I know I will never be able to visit this lovely scenic place again. So thank you so much for taking me there today! Lovely to see it all again, be it via the camera lens and not in person.

[@johncobb1559]

Really enjoyed that visit. Years since I did that walk, couldn’t do it now. Thanks for taking me with you.

[@GimbalWalkTV]

Any time! Thanks for watching! I really enjoyed filming this one for you

[@delahunty982]

I have a good friend who lives on the Pacific coast of Canada near me outside of Vancouver and who also owns a home in Whitby as well. He talked about Robin Hoods Bay and how iconic this place is as a seaside English Yorkshire town. Your vid made it real for me.

[@GimbalWalkTV]

[@jamesjackson7844]

It’s just over an hours drive for me, also like Staithes just further up the coast where the fresh crab sandwiches in the Crab and Lobster pub are delight. Keep up the good work.

If you go down the side of Dolly's Sweet Shop, there is a lovely Fish and Chip shop, used to be called Mariondales i think, always busy but worth the wait... PS, i think the woman in the white tshirt was following you 🤣🤣🤣

[@anonet78]

How did that ice cream van get down there.

[@GimbalWalkTV]

ha ha don't know but after I'd filmed this I stood and had a look at the beach and the tide was coming right in too! Looked like he was going to float away!

[@anonet78]

@@GimbalWalkTV Lmao

[@jamesjackson7844]

Along the beach at low tide.

[@keithfalkingham8861]

Excellent video as usual, 👏🏼 but it's Daniel Day Lewis not Ralph Fiennes in Phantom Thread sorry!

[@GimbalWalkTV]

Ahhhh yes it is! My error

[@GoldmineVideo1]

If Ralph Fiennes is one of your favourite actors you are not very good at recognising him as Phantom Thread starred Daniel Day Lewis in his last movie before his early retirement

[@GimbalWalkTV]

ha ha yes - my error - I was tired when I was doing the captions after all the walking up the hill at Robin Hoods Bay!

[@swillie30]

Was there 2 weeks ago. 😊

[@cathmoore7004]

We loved this video but please can you find out how on earth the ice cream van got to the beach. We would be intrigued to know.

[@GimbalWalkTV]

Ha ha you and me both! Next time I’m there I’m going to ask him!

[@michaelbethwaite5291]

Great Vlog

[@GimbalWalkTV]

Thank you!!

[@user-we8nl7wz4q]

Precioso 😍

[@GimbalWalkTV]

❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@elainehardy660]

Looks lovely but too steep for me tried a couple of years ago but didnt get far

[@GimbalWalkTV]

I always dread the walk back up 🤣

[@paulfenwick6369]

How does that ice cream van that's on the beach get back into the roads

[@chrishall3785]

Where are the white trainers? retired?
