The Northern England / Yorkshire/Yorkshire Dales region
The North York Moors National Park covers 554 square miles, with landscape ranging from heather-clad moorland and deep secluded dales, to the cliffs and coves of the magnificent coastline. A haven for walkers, the area also boasts great cycling, gliding, riding and fishing, whilst North York Moors Railway is the perfect way to enjoy the beautiful scenery in a more relaxed setting. Visit the market towns of Pickering or Thirsk; the latter famous for its links with the English country vet and author, James Herriot. Nearby, some of Yorkshire’s best-loved villages including Thornton-le-Dale and Rosedale Abbey offer a taste of village life, as does Goathland, ‘Aidensfield’ in the TV series ‘Heartbeat’. Finally, stop off at Castle Howard and Duncombe Park, two of Britain’s most historic stately homes situated in breathtaking parklands and gardens. The cliffs, sandy beaches and smugglers’ caves of the Yorkshire coastline are a haven for beachcombers and coastal walkers. Discover the quaint fishing villages of Robin Hood’s Bay and Staithes, with their brightly coloured fishing boats. Finally, there’s the historic city of York, with its interactive Viking Centre, Roman walls, medieval streets, vibrant shops and gothic York Minster cathedral.
The Pickering area
With its traditional shops, pubs and restaurants, the historic Market Town of Pickering not only offers a full range of amenities but also serves as the official gateway to the beautiful North York Moors National Park. The local area boasts some stunning scenery and Harry Potter fans can explore some of the magnificent locations used during the filming of the ‘Philosopher's Stone’ or enjoy a trip on the North Yorkshire Moors Steam Railway. For those looking to see local life at its best, The Beck Isle Museum is well worth a visit and houses a unique collection of black and white photography. With rolling hills, valleys, rivers and abundant wildlife of the North York Moors, walkers and nature lovers will be spoiled for choice, whilst the cathedral city of York and the Heritage Coast are both within half an hour's drive.
