Robin Hood’s Bay Vase

This picturesque old fishing village on the Heritage Coast of the North York Moors holds houses with unusual angles and curious structures that seem to merge into each other. As golden light pours out of timber framed windows, you can imagine the stories of the sea that were told there by the locals centuries ago.

Robin Hood’s Bay is a perfect place for smuggling – it’s isolated and has a protected harbour that is surrounded on three sides by marshland. It had gained its reputation as a smuggler’s haunt by the 18th century. Local legend has it that most of its population was involved in smuggling in some way. Every house had its own hiding place and tunnels linking to them. Indeed, tales tell that a bale of silk could be transferred from the harbour at Robin Hood’s Bay to the clifftops without even leaving the houses.
