Ooh thanks for this. My partner's mum lives not far from Lowestoft but, despite having seen the 'hotels' I've never really noticed them much in the town. I'll keep more of an eye out next time I'm there. Newcastle/Gateshead have been my favourite kittiwake watching spots so far!

This is such a fascinating read. I loved it. I never knew there were such things as a kittiwake hotel! I live down on the coast (after a recent move from London back to my hometown) and our town could also be called an old fishing village although the fishing thrives to some extent. As I watch the birds cruise across the sea in the morning I do wonder how the increased urbanisation and tourism of the area is affecting the balance. Really loved this, thank you!
