Scarborough, England, located 115 mi/185 km northeast of Manchester, is a classic seaside town well worth a visit for its Victorian grandeur, beautiful sea views and kitschy beachfront (you can take donkey rides on the beach). Walk along the coast and reward yourself with fish-and-chips from one of Scarborough's many excellent fisheries. The ruins of Scarborough Castle sit high on a rugged cliff between two bays of the North Sea.
In the vicinity and also worth a visit are the North York Moors, Whitby and Robin Hood's Bay.
