trav4 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 that's easy cleathorpes if going by car you can be there in 50 minutes Cleethorpes has had a lot of money spent on it over the last few years, the only downside I find is if the tide is out you need a taxi to the sea.:hihi:.

Sorry I thought you was on about the coast then. I haven't been in the bottom of the lane very much lately so I don't know pal.

Mikes-joiner Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Try Runswick bay. Nice beach, pub, cafe. dogs welcome all year Plenty of accommodation Brilliant for a couple of days but boring for kids about 5 up unless you drive down to Sands end or Whitby (5 & 7 miles) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
julado Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Nearest place is probably Cleethorpes.....BUT...and it's a huge BUT....the sea isn't always there! If anyone is planning to go...look at a site called Tides4Fishing. Pick Grimsby - and it will give you all all the high tide and low tide times. I was well disappointed at Cleethorpes before I realised that when the tide goes out you get no water at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuttsie Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Looking through the thread makes me wonder if Sheffield is further away from the coast than any other English City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plain Talker Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Looking through the thread makes me wonder if Sheffield is further away from the coast than any other English City. I think we are almost equidistant north- south and east-west. ---------- Post added 17-02-2015 at 20:07 ---------- further research says that Lichfield, at 84 miles from the sea, is the furthest place from the sea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maureen ann Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Lichfield -Tamworth area is the dead centre of England, that is why they built The National Arboretum there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
