Located just 2.5 miles outside of the popular seaside town of Saltburn, Skinningrove plays an important role in the history of North East England’s mining industry and has plenty to offer as a tourist destination as a result.

On the route of the Cleveland Way Coastal Path, you’ll find lots to do in this small, quiet town including a visit to the Cleveland Ironstone Mining Museum where you can enjoy an authentic underground experience in an original mining tunnel and learn all there is to know about the town’s historic mining heritage. For something more picturesque, take a trip to the untouched Cattersty Sands Beach where you’ll find spectacular views of Cleveland Way, the old working jetty, and the small fishing boats waiting to go out to sea for their daily catch.

Take a day trip to the nearby seaside town of Whitby to enjoy Fish ‘n’ Chips in the popular Magpie Cafe, visit the Captain Cook Memorial Museum or visit the stunning Whitby Abbey and experience incredible views from the cliff.

Other popular nearby locations include Marske, Saltburn and Redcar.
