Photography Holiday in Rosedale

The North York Moors and Yorkshire Heritage Coast offer keen photographer's visiting Rosedale the chance to snap away happily during any break to the region across all seasons.

Listed below are just a few of the places we'd recommend the keen photographer's amongst you to visit.

On the High Moors

Come in any season for a great range of colours.

Green in Spring. Purple in Summer. Grays, russetts, and browns in Autumn. And white snow or frost in Winter on colder days.

Moorland Crosses and Purple heather Make Iconic Images.

There are wonderful panoramic views on the high moors that separate Rosedale, Farndale, Westerdale and Danbydale.

The "surprise view" at Gillamore is worth the short drive from Rosedale Abbey.

Historic places

Castle Howard offers the quintissential English country estate with manicured grounds, a lake, boat house, and follies.

Rievaulx Abbey is a majestic ruin in a peaceful glade. It's very atmospheric at all times of year. Best to visit out of season when you might have the place to yourself!

The North York Moors Railway is especially impressive on colder Winter days when the trains give off maximum steam!

Castle Howard Offers Spendid Views for Photography.

Along the Coast

Summertime in Whitby is especially good as you can catch the sun both rising and setting over the sea - the only place in England with this unique claim.

The harbour and views to the Abbey are good from the Whale Bones above the West Cliff.

The fish key and old town on the East side of the bridge offer further good opportunities.

Robin Hood’s Bay is a very pretty huddle of narrow Georgian streets and lanes literally hanging off the cliffs above the sea.

Try to visit at low tide to get great views of the Bay; and you can walk out on the scar to look back towards the village.

Staithes, is another small, and atmospheric fishing village with amazing colours, angles, and the sea and boats behind.

Visit the Nab and Cowbar to get great shots over the breakwater and beach.

Saltburn is an elegant Edwardian town with a lovely pier and amazing cliff lift.

You'll get action shots of the surfers that make the sea thier own almost every day of the year!
