A jumble of red-roofed cottages open on to a wide stretch of beach at Runswick, an under-the-radar gem. Rock pools, fossil hunting and acres of sand make it a great choice for families, and walkers can follow the Cleveland Way National Trail to Saltburn. Summer visitors should seek out the pop-up Runswick Bay Tea Garden (2 Ellerby Lane), while Runswick Bay Cottages (runswickbaycottages.co.uk) has the pick of self-catering properties.

Driving is the simplest way to get around France, but a car is a liability in traffic-plagued, parking-starved city centers, and petrol bills and
autoroute (dual carriageway/divided highway) tolls add up quickly. From bike to bus, train to plane, here s everything you need to know to navigate your way around France.
