The North York Moors stretches from Pickering in the South to Staithes in the North and contains some of the most beautiful and natural countryside in Britain.

Designated for over 50 years as one of Britain's 15 National Parks it enjoys the care and protection of both the local inhabitants as well as the many tourists who visit it each year.

The Romans and Vikings were ancient visitors and have left their mark on the landscape and the place names of towns and villages. Early Christians came in the 9th Century and settled here, building monasteries for worship as well as for the welfare and protection of the community. While farming traditions go back many centuries the coastline has always offered good fishing as well.

Whitby was a whaling station in the 18th and 19th Century and all along the coast there were small fishing fleets braving the North Sea in search of cod; some such as Robin Hood's Bay even did a spot of moonlighting, or more correctly "smuggling". Captain Cook is probably the most famous local, learning his trade in Whitby before embarking to foreign lands as Captain of the Endeavour.

Walkers will enjoy the unspoilt landscape and the traditional inns along the way. families will like the market towns, the seaside resorts, the North Yorkshire Moors Railway, Eden Camp and the thrills of Flamingo Land. Cyclists and motorists will have the open roads all to themselves apart from the occasional sheep.

The North York Moors has something for everyone......hotels, bed and breakfast, holiday cottages and self catering accommodation, restaurants, cafes, country house hotels. Lots to do including golf clubs, horse riding, pony trekking, fishing, walking. Enjoy the North York Moors.
