Cayton looks down on its own bay — one of the coast's best surf beaches at the foot of the cliffs — with the holiday parks of the southern shore at its feet, Osgodby on the headland above the sands, and rural Lebberston behind it among the fields.
Old Cayton survives behind the holiday coast: the medieval church with its Norman doorway anchors the village core, while down on the bay the wartime pillboxes still squat in the dunes — concrete sentries that watched for invasion and now watch the surfers instead. Between the two, the village has quietly become one of the coast's most useful places to live.
Holiday-coast villages pair year-round homes with parks and lets that empty out of season, and both reward locks that work hard while nobody's watching — insurance-rated cylinders, secured site offices and key-safes done properly. Our Scarborough locksmith page covers the approach in full.
William covers Cayton and the southern shore, around the clock, usually inside the hour. Accredited, DBS checked, every job guaranteed.
