We wake today with a modest dusting of snow surrounding our house, but the local travel reports of nearby roads suggest that many folk have been caught out by the snowfall. The A171 Main route between Scarborough and Whitby passing the Bay is blocked thanks to a jack knifed lorry on one of the steeper hills. The A169 between Pickering and Whitby is also closed. The NYCC website also confirms that many of the smaller routes have not been treated and should not be attempted.

Please stay safe and only travel if it is truly essential.

As we near the end of November we start thinking abut getting ready for The Victorian Weekend. During the event the cottage owners decorate their cottages and many dress in victorian costumes. There are activities all around the village and a chance to look around some of the cottages. For more information here is a link to the events Facebook Page. https://www.facebook.com/RobinHoodsBayVictorianWeekend
We think the fabric wreath from Yorkshire Blankets dresses the front door nicely.
