With some terrific day trip options available in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to soak up all that Cocklawburn Beach, 60 miles away, has to offer. Among your first few stops here ought to be Haggerston Castle, Chain Bridge Honey Farm and Berwick-upon-Tweed Barracks and Main Guard. Situated 50 miles away, West Cliff Beach is another place to aim for. If you visit, make sure you check out Whitby Abbey, Whitby Pavilion and Whitby Harbour.
