Well done guys one of your best videos you done brilliant work. and loved the direction this one went.i can see the amount of work and editing thats gone in to this loved the sharp edits and the dolphin edit was brilliant and the turnstyle as gate of the week was genius .you packed alot into 18 min and loved the way you you showed us the budget for the day at end.the other great thing about this is you kept your iconic music in it and your waving hands lol. look forward to next one and well done for smashing this new style. Speak soonx
Oh thank you so much Simon, as our longest standing subscriber your opinion means the world to us. Thank you for your long standing support through thick and thin! We want to introduce two new styles (no not style of the week although that could be a thing down the line). This format, top things to do on a budget and another format that we will be filming today, we plan on visiting some of the worst places in England and getting to the bottom of why they are so bad. Todays trip.. Skegness, “the worst seaside resort in the UK”. Very excited, never been, but wont be holding back on anything good or bad we see there.. tell it as it is! 👍
@@GENerationXplorers so sad about the Castle , it was damaged during the English civil war , then again in ww1 by german battleship who mistaken it for a fortress being used by the British army. Alot of Scarborough was damaged. Then again in ww2 not sure if the castle was hit in ww2 but the town was. This is why half of the keep is missing when you go into the castle itself
@@GENerationXplorers oh lol didn't know about a possible hotel but i doubt the hotel would have done any damage unless they moved (taken down) parts of the castle
Great video guys. The views are amazing. The castles 🏰 Grey stone, gate house, see dolphins, good editing on this one I like the style 💯🙏🫵 Stay blessed guys.
DONKEYS 🫏!!!! I have been looking for a British beach that still has donkeys! I have heard about them at Weston-super-Mare as well as Blackpool, but I haven't been to either place yet.
Cycling across France ,loved this ,very well put together video ,a lot love went into this from the dolphins to the lovely open top bus .But our best bit was you having cod n chips made us sooo hungry ,now back to my 100th French stick de❤bs xx
mmm, french stick, now that does sound delicious! yes im glad we are including food reviews on our days out now. we’ve eaten some very delicious things! have fun on those bikes xx
What a great place, and an even better video. On a budget or not, this was just a great experience to watch. Thanks for sharing your day trip with us, really enjoyed watching. Warm greetings from Bangkok via Denmark... Thomas
@@GENerationXplorers The pleasure is mine. You made an amazing video, so exciting to watch. Have a terrific weekend, and I'll be seeing you around. Thomas
So sorry i missed your prem, i was knee deep in some stir fry action haha! But LOVING this! South Cliff gardens are so very beautiful, thank you ever so much Nick and Jill for venturing there, nice to see the Victorian rose gardens too! Look forward to you guys revisiting to see those roses 🌹Love the views over the bay, so cool, everything looks so picturesque! 🟨 Good ole yellow brick road! Love all the information you've covered too, cracking! £2.60 is a great little price for a slice of nostalgia and the views! Of course i was BUZZING to see Scarborough castle, nice to see the castle walls! INSTA WORTHY! Interesting to see the bronte gravestone, interesting! I remember seeing Peasholm park in a previous video and loved the look of it. Handy they have a map. Ohhhh this was fantastic, loving the views, the history, seeing you two enjoying yourselves and how much can actually be done on a budget! Thank you both! 📌📌🔥🔥
mmm stir fry action ha ha, no worries! Thanks for your lovely comment Alessa. Well remembered re Peasholm park! Thought you’d like the castle we will probably cover it at some point thinking of investing in the English Heritage membership not really for filming just for some different days out! Have a great weekend 👍❤️
Italian, victorian and rose gardens fabulous as was your little friend. Yellow brick road! Special gate of the week was a surprise. The trail and beach were a cracker! Peasholm park is amazing cute with the falls and the boats. Good deal for the fish, chips and ice cream. 👍All the best to you from Mike at that place 🤠
I can tell that you are doing this video as a recommendation to what normal people would do if they came to visit Scarborough. Because clearly you guys would hike everywhere and not take buses funiculars 😉
Great video guys, I remember Peasholme Park from being a kid and watching the naval battle re-enactment. The bus ride looked a bit of a bargain at £3 each. We were hoping to visit Scarborough earlier in the year but it was fully booked at all the places we tried. It's definitely on the cards for a visit.
Never heard of that theatre before to be honest I just remember The Futuristic. The South Cliff gardens looked superb yet we have never been to them before. but been on that life plenty of times. never been inside the caste but walked from South to North Bay up and around the castle and you really showed why you should do it with those amazing views. Bang goes another 10 subscribers lol but I love that walk along the prom from South Bay to North Bay and those beaches are both superb, particularly North bay when the tide is right out. Make that 20 subs for a back seat cuddle lol but love Peason Park, sent many a happy hour there on many a happy holiday. The fish n chips looked amazing we must go to the Anchor next time! and I remember the speed boat ride with very mixed emotions - long story! Great video, loved it and makes me want to go back again ASAP, for sea, sand, ice cream and fish n chips! Cheers Alan
ah the Futurist, shame what happened to that place, years of mis management saw it fall to neglect and it has now been torn down. The SJT is lovely and Sir Alan Ayckbourn premiers all his plays there, a new one every year. yes those subs dropping like flies and darn it I have a Whitby on a budget video sat on youtube now ready to come out in two weeks and that also has a kiss and a cuddle on it. i’ll be back at zero in no time 😂 North Bay Fisheries does the very best Fish and Chips but thats by Peasholm Park. The Anchor has easily the best on Sandside though, id highly recommend them. gosh we almost did the speed boat ride, what happened? 😱
@@GENerationXplorers - I was when my son was about 5 and my daughter about 11, it was an awful day, raining none stop and we were stopping in Scarbados for a week as we used too every summer. Mrs Metalman took our youngster son back to the flat we were stopping in and I took both the kids on a speedboat ride, just for something to do and it was real nice while we were in the harbour. My son was sat on ,y knee and there were a couple of teenage girls on the boat too, and the lad driving was trying to show off to them. Once we left the protection of the harbour, he really turned up the speed and started to do all these tricks and (imo) dangerous turns at speed, especially as the sea was real rough, which was terrifying, especially as I had a 5 year old sitting on my knee. Never been so glad to reach dry land again and vowed to never go on that speed boat again, all 3 of us were shaking when we got off :o(
@@AlanMETALMAN oh my gosh it sounds petrifying, id be holding on for dear life. To be looking after young ones in that situation, gosh id have been really rattled. What an unfortunate experience, i bet it hasn’t changed 😱
Thank you Christine, not to be confused with the one in Ontario. No more hiking (for now), food and drink reviews and top fives. Loved your vid last night, a detailed look at all the food places in an area is a genius idea for a RU-vid video, well done you. Im sure we might run with your theme soon ♥️🇨🇦
Hey both, we’ve been looking forward to this and just got in from work. Loving this, loads of great info and really pacey!! Love the cheeky squirrel 🐿️ 😂. Er…that road isn’t brick…or yellow 😂. Love the funicular! Great Insta shots 😅😅. Wow, didn’t know about the Brontë grave. Aw, very romantic 💋 The beach looks stunning and £3 each for the open top bus, really good. The park looks beautiful. Nice Picoda 😂😂. Loved the front…ah, where we’re the 2p falls…oh, just as well you didn’t catch crabs 🦀 Well, you’ve sold it to us, we’re definitely gonna do Scarborough this year, fish and chips and a Postcard and Gen X meet-up!!! That fish does look very good!!! Mmm ice cream!!! That looks pretty damn good, this is absolutely our kind of day out. Choc chip mint trumps lime any day of the week. 5 out of 5, excellent!!! We really loved this, can’t wait to see your next travel video. Nice one both 🍻
yes not quite sure why they have named it the yellow brick road, perhaps its awaiting a paint job? we so have a 2p falls segment on our Whitby in a budget video which airs in two weeks, it took us about an hour to spend 10p. i was quite relieved when we finally lost! excited for our next meet up. we will be alternating travel on a budget with worst places video and on that note we are off to Skegness to film our first one. wish us luck its supposed to be the worst seaside resort in the UK. we cant wait ♥️🍻
Hi Nick and Jill Another successful complete guide tour.! Oh I am glad to know this time you don't need a bucket ride but the funicular railway. so beautiful to see the beach, the ocean and the sky through the window. So did you get English Heritage membership since you two visit all over the places? Oh, There is a secret hiking passage along the wall only the local PPL know about? No ticks? hahaha I saw two dolphins in the air! That's my dream to ride double decker bus and sit on the upper floor! How could you, two memorize all scripts???!!! Wow, I guess one day is not enough to explore this iconic busy town as the summer arrives. Thank you so much for this exploration with cost less. You two seem to have had a blast day! Superb! Bravo! Ciao until next time. So sorry I cannot compose my comment in details since my eyes got sunburnt and I am still recovering from it. You will know why that happened in the K7S' next vid.
very good Ms Kayak, its my birthday next week and i am hoping for an English Heritage joint membership as one of my pressies. whilst we wont be able to go to these lovely historic places with the same flair as other channels they will start to get more depth on ours too. yes Ms Kayak, very observant, cough cough, we are exceptionally local and know of the secret paths for great views! Scarborough has enough for a few days to entertain the most energetic, we came here time and time again before we eventually gave up everything and moved here. sending all our love to your sunburnt but very observant eyes ♥️♥️♥️🛶
This is what popped in to my mind from the title: Are you going to Scarborough Fair? Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme Remember me to one who lives there She once was a true love of mine From Simon & Garfunkel if you happen to know of them. Produced some wonderful tunes in the 60's. Always appreciate when locations have budget options...even better when they allow dogs...as some don't close at hand here. Absolutely excellent adventure! Otis would certainly have obliged if you fancied a beard cleaning! lol Bruce and Otis
We are HUGE Simon & Garfunkel fans so know it well and love people are singing it in the comments! Nick would love a beard clean from Otis for sure 😂 thanks Bruce! stay awesome you two 👍❤️
Hi Nick and Jill... Your journey in SCARBOROUGH was amazing, the scenery really satisfied us when watching your content, the views from the hills, sea and historical sites are great, we really enjoyed watching as if we were live at the footage location. May I know what camera did you use to record?
I was a big fan of the tv show The Royals …was sad when it ended. Squirrel! There are wonderful things to do in Scarborough. I love Marine drive….I would love to see dolphins and the giant man. Thank you for the awesome tour! 👍😊🇨🇦
Well, I am going to have to fly over there just to get an Instagram shot at the fake waterfall. Lol. You had a very lovely day and you ended it perfectly with that ice cream. The yellow brick Road does not look very yellow though. Ha ha.
it doesn’t look yellow does it? we’ve revisited and seen it in sunlight and it does look a little more yellow 😅 yes the fake waterfall is impressive but in winter they sometimes turn off the gizmo that makes the water flow. BOO. visited another man made waterfall today. will air this friday. no bears though, we just cant compete with Cali can we? ♥️🇺🇸
hi Generation Xplorer Jill and Nick is very nice video,the donkey on the beach how cool, the garden is beautiful that delights the walk, the fish looks delicious thank you so for much for sharing 😄
Looked a great day out with cracking weather. The cliff top ride thing looked fab. I'd stay away from the beach with all those people Fish n chips and then ice cream. That's a winner 👍
we do have a Mere that allegedly has otters, ive never seen them though, Dave from North Bedfordshire Nature tells me its because we are not there early or late enough?
oh Dandelion and Burdock is definitely a thing, I can’t imagine have fish and chips without it. would make a great video. ive had a few comments about the D&B, maybe its a Northern thing?
This was a different video from you guys 😃 but nice to look around and see what to do in a budget. Its lovely here 😃The clock tower was nice and the Italian garden is so beautiful, loved the singing birds . The lift was quite cheap and with great views. The castle looked fabulous even though you didn't have time to go in but the wall walk looked great, nice place for a picnic like you said and with beautiful views of the bay. Would definitely get chips and ice cream . Thanks for the look around, really enjoyed that 🚣♂️😃 👍~ Anna
thank you so much Anna, yes we did this the same day you were having fish and chips on the beach! genius! off to Skegness today, never been, its supposed to be terrible. i doubt it is. have an awesome day 👍
We really need to get over to the east coast ....this is really helpful guys thankyou...it's in our to do list but we seem to always head the other ways ❤ Fabulous as usual xxx stay free guys x
thanks Dara, was really keen for your feedback (sorry), its quite a departure for us. we won’t be doing much hiking on the channel anymore as we just don’t live anywhere near any hikes that people have heard of!
Thank you Phil, its time for us to panda up! 🐼 we will be alternating great places to go on a very limited budget with the very worst places to go, is it really that bad? We’ll have a lot of fun along the way and give our very honest opinions! Hope you enjoy 👍
Hello everybody bravo for your video. I like SCARBOROUGH and i went there 3 times with my school. Studies the morning and then, all the free afternoon. Meeting with all the French at the Station and direction Southbay, for fun moments. A lot of nice souvenirs, my first... in the garden, down the cattle, my first fish and chips and my first Italian ice cream with the bar of Cadbury chocolat.... Cheers Bruno 66 from PARIS
Bonjour Bruno! Great comment and how lovely you have fond memories of Scarborough and we loved hearing all about them! Thank you for your comment! Nick and Jill 👍❤️
I liked your video but it was a bit start stop. Maybe start with a short history of the town then note your planned journey the reason you are doing it this way then do the journey
I can walk round Scarborough blindfold. It's only 3rd year we nt been Scarborough. We been Scarborough near 30 years running. I hope to go back next year 🤞🤞
Orr fabulous, skegness will be a nice change for you this year, Scarborough is not going anywhere so hopefully you can look forward to that next year 🤞👍❤️
Great stuff you two. You live in a beautiful place and you showed it off to perfection. I do love the look of the castle views. A lot of people will find this very useful - it’s always to see stuff than read about it. Have a great weekend Nick and Jill.
ah thank you so much Dave, yes we moved here almost twenty years ago now after a lifetime of holidays visiting the place. we honestly do feel like we are on holiday every day but the locals that have lived here their entire lives only see the negatives. i can understand that but can never be in agreement with them, we love it! ♥️
I have never seen you before. I must admit when I first started watching I was dubious, but no you were good fun and you both enjoyed your trip I think. Subbed 👍👍
thank you so much Marco, yes we are an acquired taste, we are probably 8 bits silly 2 bits info! that being said we love the places we cover and hope that other people will too. really appreciate your time to reach out and leave a lovely comment. 🙏 thankyou
If you walk further up North Bay there’s beautiful rainbow beach huts, perfect for instagram! And the North Bay beach is a lot quieter than South Bay, so if you want sea but not as many people, head there! There’s a miniature railway there too and a water ride which is not very expensive. Definitely recommend! The market hall in the town is great for fruit and veg and gifts, and downstairs in the vaults are some quirky little local stalls selling just about anything! Further down South Bay is the site where the hotel was that fell into the sea. Also free parking next to there, and a perfect spot to eat a picnic.
Hi Louise thank you so much for your fabulous comment! we will let you into a little secret, we made it look like a day out but we actually live in Scarborough! Everything in your comment is spot on and so right! We will definitely have to covers the places you mention in a future video! Have a lovely week 👍❤️
Good on ya guys Enjoyed that so much Spent my childhood in scarborough Loved the north bay Corner cafe Open air theatre Pool Marineland Somehow i ended up in sydney australia Cheers
Thats amazing, yes like you I spent my childhoods holidaying in Scarborough. very fond memories of the Corner Cafe with pacman arcade machine and Marineland with the dinosaur statues and dolphin displays! After a lifetime of holidays or short breaks I eventually moved to Scarborough. I think you got the better straw! ♥️ 🇦🇺
Lots to see in Scarborough... Scarborough town council should employ you both for they're And agency 👌 Can't believe there were so few people about, and on such a lovely day. Thanks for sharing, ATB Alistair 👍
thanks Alistair, well our details are on the business contact page on youtube now so you never know! we’ve also filmed Skegness (UKs worst rated seaside town, Whitby and Brid), hope your making the most of this wonderful weather ♥️🥾
F&C’s are not complete without D&B 👍😂 yes by far the best ice creams yet and going to be super hard to beat! oh yeah your van does get a cameo good spot 👍❤️
Oh wow what a brilliant video. I've never been there but I want to go now. I loved the flower beds, the Japanese gardens, the beach, it was all brilliant. A fresh chippie tea and local ice cream. The perfect day out - and dolphins too 🤭. Fantastic 👏. Loved it. 🐻🐻🥰🌞😎🐟🍦🐬🥰
did i tell you i am interested in the royal family. i was a big fan of princess diana and sarah ferguson. i have a letter from princess diana, after she married prince charles. i have a letter from sarah ferguson i wrote her after danas passing. i read all the diana books, i have all the diana stamps. i have all the diana coins. i have pictures of diana. i am quite the diana expert.
we too loved Diana but can safely say we are not too keen on the royal family! the Diana storey and Sarah’s is highly questionable! must be very hard to be mixed up in such ‘royalty’ love you Kenneth ❤️
That is quite the place, so many nice aspects to see, not hard to see why the Beatles mentioned it in one of their songs. That would be something to see the symphony play there. How cool is that lift up the cliff side. I thought it funny how you were evaluating the seats along the cliff trail for their ability to give you a view and some were non existent. I thought the same thing on a recent car journey that had pull overs for viewing, some with no views, LOL. Clearly somebody is not keeping them from being over grown. Well that took me on a trip, having to read up on the Bronte family. Very interesting story. What a treat that Marine Drive is. What a surprise you had in store for us on this walk on Marine Drive, LOL. Nick you weren't jealous when Jilly jumped into the man's lap? Open top bus for a beach drive, how cool was that? I would be a regular at Peasholm Park, how magical. Donkey's on the beach? I do believe we've seen those benches before where you had lunch...Love your energy guys, you always have entertaining videos that make us smile or laugh. Keep up the fantastic work.
hi Darren wow thanks for your amazing comment! I don’t know of a Beatles Scarborough song but the Simon & Garfunkel one is hugely popular! How annoying when places advertise views and there is overgrown shrubbery in the way…sack the gardener responsible 😂 sorry we took you on a Brontë family research but yes a very interesting storey for sure! Been keeping my eye on that giant man Who’s lap Jilly jumped onto, funny thing is he hasn’t moved an inch 🤷🏻♂️ Peasholm Park is lovely we spend a lot of time there! Thank you ❤️ hope you have a great week ahead 👍
Wow guys you really packed it in there! That was a great day out! Nice fish n chips and ice cream tips 😋 brought back memories of my lil trip to Scarborough a couple of years ago. Saw loads of dolphins then. Stayed at the Britannia Hotel which was actually alright (some Britannias are awful 😂). The castle really is impressive, will you be doing a video speficially focusing on that?
Hi Matt, definitely the best ice cream in Scarboro and the best fish and chips on sandside, will stand by that 1000% both the Britannias are ok here and do great for video reviews but they do court the news a lot by either housing a hundred refugees next to holidaymakers or causing every guest to get Legionnaires disease. they are either great or really bad so make for great videos and news. shame you weren’t vlogging then, that vid alone would have got you monetised. hold on? for thirty quid we should do a review.. 😅 so many better channels than us do these castles proud. it is my birthday next week and i am asking the birthday gods for English Heritage membership. not sure we can do it justice but we will be running as far as we can with this places on a budget series so the english heritage will help us build up a top five. in other news, we are just in, from the UKs worst seaside resort Skegness. even though crime is through the roof there. we survived. we loved it. it will form our new alternating weekly series, best places on a budget, alongside, is it really that bad in..
@@GENerationXplorers looking forward to the Skegness one! I love seeing all the so-called 'bad' places! I reckon you'll do just fine with the English Heritage stuff! Early Happy Birthday for next week mate! I'm sure you'll get spoilt rotten by Jill!
Thank you! You too! yes please visit Scarborough if ever you get chance when visiting 🇬🇧 you will not be disappointed! we hope to visit 🇨🇦 in the not so distant future 👍❤️
Loved seeing the beautiful town and area on a budget, Nick and Jill. Works out great for two cheapskates like us! Lovely tour and gorgeous park. Interesting Japanese theme. Loved it! Thanks for bringing us along.
Thanks so much! 😊 you guys are so lovely and we are thankful of your amazing support trying a seaside town we have never visited before tomorrow (Saturday) classed as the worst in 🇬🇧 😳😬 we’ll see and be the judge of that! have a great weekend and catch you soon, much love ❤️
What an amazing place to visit with so many great options for things to see. Makes me want to go. I loved the gardens and beach area too. Fish and chips sound great 👍. It looked really good. ❤
Like 77 👍 Hello from your friends in Naples, Florida. Holy cow, so much to see in Scarborough. Love, love the castle. Marine drive is beautiful, too. Thanks for the tour. Have a great week. 💯
Fabulous Nick you and Jill did a great tour of Scarborough Lots to do and see on a budget (sounds good to me 🤠🙏🏼) Loved the oriental park (amazing that ) Have a great weekend guys Best wishes Simon 🤠🙏🏼
thank you so much Simon and thanks for sticking with us through thick and thin, hiking will prevail on this channel but given our proximity to any hikes anyone has ever heard of let alone googled we will be pandering to the more obvious videos for the next few months. will be great places on a budget and shocking places are they that bad. thats until we are back in the Alps hiking our favourite places. hope you are having a brilliant weekend. we “survived” the UKs WORST SEASIDE RESORT today Skegness. never been before, tbh we loved it, but what a catchy title for a video to help get us over that finish line. 🐼🐼🐼
@@GENerationXplorers hey Nick I bet you can’t wait for the Alps 🏔️🏔️🏔️ But yes we have to make the most of what we have local (wouldn’t it be wonderful to live in the Lakes or Snowdonia 🏔️🏔️🏔️🙏🏼) but alas 🥲 with that said some of the best films come from the local under your nose kinda videos like this fun factual and will keep on giving views add a bit of drama as you said and you’ll get over the line You and Jill will make it m8t have a fab weekend guys 🤠👍 Best regards Simon
Ah thanks Simon, exactly that, id probably give a limb to live in the Lakes, Snowdonia, Scotland or the Alps right now as that is all i want to do 24/7. Unfortunately we don’t live 6 to 8 hours minimum from anywhere anyone is googling for places to hike. We will be visiting those places as often as possible but we think that might be as little as 20 of the 52 videos we put out a year. Its time to pander those other 32 weeks. Budget best places, worst places did we survive and eating comparisons… thats the way its going for now. Well, whilst my heart is in the hiking, that now becomes a third of what this channel will put out. I will enjoy visiting these googly places though and believe me we will be hiking every unheard of track in our radius every day we are not filming, its in our blood xx
@@GENerationXplorers like your video,from Scarborough myself although live in beautiful Bulgaria now which is constantly improving unlike my home town unfortunately,all the best.
We visited Scarborough a couple years ago and it’s gone very commercial from our last visit, everywhere you are now charged for parking, expensive to eat, and the fish and chips I took back to complain on the quality and got another serving, not what it used to be, just my opinion.
im glad you got another serving. oh i hate bad fish and chips. the quality really varies on the sea front but the Anchor is by far the best, im currently addicted, have been three times this week alone, cannot endorse such behaviour though! the parking is criminal in Scarborough, mind you has been for as long as i can remember. above the sea life there is still tons of free parking to be had all year if you don’t mind the little walk in..
