Hornsea is small resort along the coast in East Riding of Yorkshire, England.

Hornsea is at the eastern end of the Trans Pennine Trail, a long-distance path that runs from coast to coast across northern England, covering a distance of 333.1 km (207 miles). Hornsea is also famous for Hornsea Pottery, a pottery business that was founded in 1949 and produced potteries and clay figurines until 2000, when it went into receivership.

The modern town of Hornsea is like any other British seaside resorts, with its shops selling fish and chips, ice cream and traditional seaside paraphernalia.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
