Love a Holiday in Rosedale

To a large extent, our local community in Rosedale relies on tourism to provide the income that keeps young people living in the Dale.

Without tourism, more and more local people are forced to move away in the search for jobs and income.

For ourselves, we had to leave over 25-years ago in the search for work; and it's taken us this long to get home!

As a vibrant and sustainable community, we need holidaymakers coming to Rosedale.

We really value active holidaymakers who hire accommodation, stay for the weekend - or the week - drink in the pubs, eat at the cafes, and buy stuff from the village stores.

And we think that Rosedale in the North York Moors can offer those holidaymakers a damn good time!

Rosedale is a Special Place

·   Rosedale Abbey is right in the centre of the North York Moors National Park - making it easy to visit all the sites across the Moors;

·   Although we have all the benefits of being a "remote" and out-of-the-way place, we're also right on the doorstep of lovely Georgian market towns like Kirkbymoorside, Pickering, Helmsley and Whitby.

·   Rosedale has a good choice of accommodation across a range of budgets - allowing different types of people to get close to nature;

·   It's a fantastic place for walking, cycling, running, and other active outdoor pursuits;

·   Children love the freedom of Rosedale; so we help to create happy family memories in a safe environment - with a slower pace of life - and different things to see and do each day.

·   For history buffs, we have hidden gems, industrial archeology, and monumental remains of the Victorain iron-mining revolution;

·   We're nestled in a deep wooded valley that is surrounded by Moors and beautiful countryside on all sides;

·   We offer a tranquil and special retreat that allows city folks the chance to escape the stresses of busy modern urban life;

·   Rosedale is a place to feel rested and restored; where you can stop and listen to the sounds of nature;

·   You can marvel at the skill of the village's glass making Artisans;

·   You can enjoy a cake, coffee or high-tea in a choice of three cafes; or beer and a fine meal in a choice of four local historic Country Inns; and

·   You can return home with the good feeling that your holiday in Rosedale has contributed to the Sustainable Development of the North York Moors National Park.

How good is that?
