its a great place! surfing off the beach, the Ship Inn on the beach, interesting if a little bumpy, trip from 'Boro, all that industry... ho hum. Must be time to dump the buses and look for something better to transport visitors to the jewel on the NY coast. Zetland hotel now appts I believe ( we thought of living in Saltburn...)
