Amenities

The parish church of St Michael is a Grade II* listed building and dates back to the 13th century.[3]

The village is well known for its cliffs. Bempton Cliffs is an RSPB nature reserve, best known for its breeding seabirds, including northern gannet, Atlantic puffin, razorbill, common guillemot, black-legged kittiwake and fulmar. Bempton also used to be home to RAF Bempton, an early warning station. Some of the old buildings are still visible from the cliff top.

Bempton has a post office and general store, a garage, a hairdresser, antique shop and snooker club. It is home to Bempton Primary School, which was completely rebuilt in 2004 at a cost of over £1 million.[4] It also has a public house, The White Horse, which has a distinctive blue tiled roof.

In 2014, after many years of fundraising and a lottery grant of £408,000, Bempton and Buckton Community Village Hall was opened on land between the two villages.[5]

There is also a children's playground between the villages of Bempton and Buckton.

Bronze Age pit dwellings have been discovered near Bempton.[6]
