Runswick Bay
We went back to Runswick Bay for the weekend for a family celebration.
It's my favourite Yorkshire sea side spot by far, totally unspoilt.
It feels like you've stepped back in time 30 years and the kids love it.
I took plenty of photo's to inspire more screen prints perhaps!?....
I love this little house right on the edge of the sea, with it's thatched roof, it looks like a child's drawing.
It has an amazing allotment next to it with perfect little rows of carrots, beets, kale and potatoes,
so perfect,
I wonder if they grow better for the sea air?
Chris' brother said this house was on the market not so long ago for just under a million pounds!
I love how the wall is weather beaten, and just around the side is a big bay window looking directly out to sea. I bet this little house could tell a few sea tales.
This was the view from our little flat!
I got up early to go for a run on the beach,
I imagined to look like a Timotei ad, elegantly running along the beach, sun glimmering on the sea, pony tail swishing....
I looked more like a funky chicken as my feet kept sinking in the soft sand and had to give it up as a bad job to run on the road instead!
best laid plans!
I did see a baby deer crossing the road and some beautiful scenery, so all good!
I do feel the calling of the sea, and I know someday I will live by the sea, I don't know how, I just do.
I could watch it for ages, and I'm going to really really miss our holiday abroad this year.
Still, we'll have fab adventures were ever we go!
hope you had a wonderful weekend:)
All looks beautiful, the little house with it's allotment is just gorgeous! x

ReplyDeleteWhat a truly gorgeous spot! Your little ones are growing up and that house is amazing. I love the horse shoe on the wall :-) My parents sent me a real estate brochure for a light house property in the Isle of Man (Dad's home) it was tres expensive and you had to walk down 70 steps to get to it but wouldn't it be a fantastic place to live!!
