Advantages: easy to get to, something for everyone

Disadvantages: a bit bleak on the open moor

The North York Moors is situated to the North east of England and encomasses the coastal town of Whitby, home to Dracula and good fish!

The Moors themselves are bleak and full of sheep but there are some fantasic walks including the 40 mile Lyke Wake Walk (a toughie)

Home also to Goathland where 'Heartbeat' is filmed, there isn't lot here but it is good for walks, especially to the waterfall of Mallyan Spout, not sure how high this is but its pretty impressive.

Near Hutton le Hole which is a beautiful little village you come to The Lion Inn which is a great little pub situated at Blaket at the very top of the Moor, they do great meals here and there are some lovely walks from here around the valley following an old railtrack.

All in all the moors are great for walks, good access to the seaside towns too for the kids

Summary: some hidden gems amongst the park
