Railway Poster Series Continues: Celebrating Saltburn Town & Promenade


Our vintage railway-style poster series takes its next stop at the stunning Victorian seaside resort of Saltburn-by-the-Sea. Following the incredible response to our Stokesley poster, we’re delighted to unveil the second design in the collection—one that captures the timeless charm and coastal beauty of this North Yorkshire gem.

Why Saltburn?

Saltburn holds a special place in the hearts of many Huntee users, and it’s easy to see why. This beautifully preserved Victorian town offers everything from dramatic clifftop views to the nostalgic charm of the historic pier stretching into the North Sea. The combination of elegant Victorian architecture, sweeping coastal vistas, and the iconic cliff railway makes Saltburn a perfect subject for our railway poster treatment.

The town’s connection to railway heritage runs deeper than just our poster series—Saltburn itself was developed as a planned Victorian resort town, with the railway playing a crucial role in its creation and growth. This historical connection makes our railway-inspired poster design particularly fitting for this coastal destination.

You can play the Saltburn Town & Promenade here.

Capturing Saltburn’s Essence

Creating the Saltburn poster presented unique opportunities to showcase the town’s most iconic features. The design captures that breathtaking clifftop panorama, with the grand Victorian buildings perched dramatically above the sea—including those distinctive red-brick structures that have watched over Saltburn for generations. The famous pier stretches elegantly into the North Sea, while the charming timber-framed buildings along the promenade create that perfect seaside village atmosphere.

What really brings the poster to life is the scene on the promenade itself—a family walking together along the wooden decking, benches positioned to take in those spectacular coastal views, and the inviting pier entrance that beckons visitors to venture out over the waves. Using our signature teal and yellow color palette, we’ve captured both the invigorating coastal atmosphere and the warm, welcoming character that makes Saltburn feel like stepping back into a golden age of British seaside holidays.

The poster celebrates not just Saltburn’s stunning visual appeal, but also that sense of shared discovery and family adventure that defines the Huntee experience—perfectly represented by the figures exploring the promenade together.

The Saltburn Huntee Experience

For those who haven’t yet experienced our Saltburn trail, you’re in for a treat! The Huntee trail guides you through the town’s fascinating history while showcasing the best of its coastal charm—from those magnificent clifftop buildings that dominate the skyline to the historic pier that has welcomed generations of visitors. You’ll discover stories about the Victorian entrepreneurs who shaped the town, learn about the engineering marvel of the cliff tramway, and explore that famous promenade where families have strolled and created memories for over a century.

The trail incorporates all of Saltburn’s most captivating features—the dramatic cliff-edge architecture, the charming timber-framed seaside buildings, and those perfect vantage points for taking in the sweeping coastal views. You’ll uncover the stories behind the grand red-brick Victorian developments and discover why this particular stretch of Yorkshire coast became such a beloved destination for seaside holidays.

Victorian Seaside Meets Modern Adventure

What makes Saltburn particularly special for our railway poster series is how perfectly it embodies the golden age of British seaside holidays that those original vintage travel posters celebrated. The poster captures that timeless scene—families exploring together, the iconic pier beckoning visitors out over the waves, and those magnificent clifftop buildings that seem to preside over everything like grand Victorian guardians.

The design process involved studying historical travel posters from Saltburn’s heyday while ensuring we captured those specific elements that make the town instantly recognizable—the dramatic cliff setting, the elegant pier structure, and that wonderful promenade atmosphere where generations of families have walked, discovered, and created memories. Our poster shows a family mid-exploration, perfectly representing how Huntee transforms traditional sightseeing into shared adventures of discovery.
