Visited the zoo too. I wonder if they still have archery there. It was my first time seeing that sport ever. I must have been about 12 years old. Used to ride the old double decker bus that went through the High Street to school every day. It went to Brid from Flamborough via Sewerby all those years ago.ChrisJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11550420299395301062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-43124627098171569272014-10-12T21:36:17.313+01:002014-10-12T21:36:17.313+01:00Beautiful gardens and Hall.

It's a pity more places don't allow dogs; I suppose you can imagine why, but it would be nice not to shiver with our flask, just occasionally! If you are ever in Shropshire (great walking country), the Castle Cafe in Ludlow is built right into the wall of the castle and they do have a dog friendly area...and space for buggies.CharlottePhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16693808113369554138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-80651587403439589042014-10-12T08:02:37.622+01:002014-10-12T08:02:37.622+01:00We went to Sewerby Hall when we were staying in a ...We went to Sewerby Hall when we were staying in a log cabin at Bridlington Golf Course for a week in 2012, and really enjoyed our day there. I agree that it is brilliant value for money - we paid the small fee and had a look around the museum inside the house, and the zoo. We had a picnic in the garden, and the FH managed the grounds well back then with just a walking stick. The pleasure gardens were beautiful, and I would definitely go back if we are in the area again. We were lucky enough to see the Town Crier there on the day we visited and had a wee chat with him about his role. Well done, Yorkshire, on a great place to visit.Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10875708145472914122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-61391780971442805162014-10-12T07:14:47.546+01:002014-10-12T07:14:47.546+01:00Wow! what a beautiful place

We live in Flamborough and Sewerby Hall is a favourite destination for our walks along the clifftops. The Hall has recently been renovated at great expense and is well worth a visit with lots of period furniture borrowed from the V and A on display. The Amy Johnson exhibits have been retained as a tribute to that pioneering aviator. We have a seasonal pass which sounds expensive (I think it was about £17 this year) but for us is terrific value as it allows free entry to house and gardens all summer with the bonus of 10% off at the cafe. In the season there are also free concerts on a Thursday which can be jazz, classical or 'easy listening'. These are held in the Orangery, the glass extension to the right of your photo of the facade. I'm not employed by East Riding Council who own and run the property but I think it is an underrated gem in an area that often gets a bad press! ...and we haven't even seen your photos of the fantastc chalk cliffs yet! Thanks again for this and all your other informative, entertaining and thought-provoking posts, Ilona.
