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 Whitby / Sleights area
The little village of Sleights is just four miles from the beautiful Yorkshire coastline and the town of Whitby, and close to the stunning countryside of the North York Moors. Sleights has a variety of amenities in the village including two public houses, an antique shop with a café, a fish and chip shop, post office, butchers and a bakery. For railway enthusiasts the terminus of The North Yorkshire Steam Railway is just a few minutes drive away and there is public transport to and from Whitby, an ancient fishing port that has many attractions and activities for visitors to enjoy. Sleights is in a super location and can offer the holiday maker an excellent base to enjoy a holiday with plenty of attractions and amenities.

Guestbook for 2628 - Throstle Nest Cottage
Beautiful cottage and surroundings, quiet and peaceful. Extremely clean and high quality decor. Lovely owners. Fairly close to the local village and a short drive to surrounding towns and coast. Probably most relaxing week off we've ever had.
