Wills in Flamborough
Flamborough Wills often involve a holiday-let cottage, a second home, or an inheritance that crosses more than one country. A standard template Will does not handle any of those well. Aaron drafts for coastal property and estates with several kinds of asset.
Mirror wills for a couple £550. A will with a trust in it £650, or £950 for a couple.

Much of Flamborough is retired, and a good deal of village property is tied to the sea or let out. An attorney can keep a cottage insured, let and repaired; a relative without a registered power cannot, however obvious the decision looks.
Both for one person £800. Both for each of a couple £1,400. The Office of the Public Guardian charges £92 to register each document, paid at cost on top.

Probate on a Flamborough estate raises the letting questions first: whether a holiday cottage can keep taking bookings while the grant is applied for, who deals with the agent, and who is insured to hold the keys.
Aaron obtains the grant and you do the rest. Full administration from £3,000. The court’s £526 application fee is paid at cost on top.

Closer to home
Around Flamborough.
Each has its own page, because what comes up in Flamborough Village is not what comes up in South Landing.
Flamborough village is the heart of the headland, an old fishing community of weathered cottages and established families around St Oswald's Church and the village green.
Flamborough Head is the chalk headland at the tip of the peninsula, crowned by the 1806 Trinity House lighthouse and the surviving chalk tower of 1674, ringed by Heritage Coast cliffs, seabird colonies and the old foghorn station.
North Landing is the cove on the northern side of the headland, where fishing cobles are still winched up a steep slipway, a clifftop café looks out over the bay, and holiday cottages cluster near Thornwick.
South Landing is the sheltered southern cove of the headland, reached through a wooded ravine near Danes Dyke, and home to the Flamborough RNLI lifeboat station and the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust's Living Seas Centre.
