Cowbar
England
Cowbar perches on the North Yorkshire cliffs between Staithes and Boulby, reached via the A174 coastal road and steep minor lanes. Popular with day-trippers from Whitby (20km) and longer journeys from York via the A171. Limited parking means early arrival is essential in summer. The hamlet sits directly above Cowbar Nab, a rocky promontory jutting into the North Sea.
