Stay with us as Spring Awakens on the Yorkshire Coast

Shake off the winter blues and step into spring with a refreshing coastal break along the breathtaking Yorkshire coast. As the days grow longer and the landscapes begin to bloom, there’s no better time to unwind, explore, and reconnect with loved ones in one of our luxurious Anchor Bay Holidays properties.

Whether you’re planning an Easter family holiday, a spring retreat for two, or a dog-friendly getaway, our handpicked cottages and stylish apartments offer the perfect blend of comfort, location, and seasonal charm. Wake up to the sound of the sea, bask in the warmth of the spring sun on your private patio, or enjoy a morning coffee with views of rolling hills or endless skies. With a range of properties that include private hot tubs, log burners, and spacious family areas, your spring escape starts in complete comfort.

Easter Adventures for the Whole Family

Springtime on the Yorkshire coast is full of fun and adventure, especially over the Easter holidays. Local attractions and nature reserves host family-friendly Easter egg trails, wildlife-themed activities, and open-air events. Explore heritage railways, visit animal parks, or take a scenic picnic to one of the many nearby nature spots.

Many of our cottages are located just a short distance from popular seaside towns like Filey, Bridlington, and Scarborough, where you’ll find plenty of things to see and do — from arcades and beach cafés to cliffside walks and springtime boat trips.

A Season of Wildlife, Walks, and Natural Beauty

Spring brings the coast to life. It’s the perfect time to enjoy bracing beach walks, explore the Cleveland Way coastal path, or stroll through the North York Moors, where wildflowers begin to bloom and birdlife returns in full force. Between April and July, head to Bempton Cliffs RSPB Reserve to witness the spectacular return of puffins, gannets, and other seabirds — a truly memorable wildlife experience for all ages.

If you’re bringing your four-legged friend, you’ll be pleased to know many of our cottages are dog-friendly, and several beaches and walking trails remain open to dogs during the spring season.

Taste the Flavours of Spring

The local food scene flourishes in spring, with farmers’ markets and coastal delis offering everything from freshly caught seafood to handmade Easter chocolates, Yorkshire cheeses, and seasonal bakes. Try a local food tour or simply stock up on goodies to enjoy back at your cottage — where fully equipped kitchens and outdoor dining spaces make it easy to savour the tastes of the season.

For a special treat, book a table at one of the area’s highly rated pubs or restaurants, many of which feature seasonal spring menus and sea-view dining perfect for sunny lunches or relaxed evening meals.

Whether you’re beachcombing with the kids, walking the dog along coastal trails, or simply relaxing with a glass of wine in the spring sunshine, the Yorkshire coast is the perfect place to celebrate the season of renewal. With fewer crowds than summer and milder, brighter days, spring is a peaceful and rewarding time to visit.
