Ten Reasons to Visit Rosedale

We think that Rosedale Abbey can offer holidaymakers a damn good time this summer!

Here's ten reasons why:

· Our small village is right in the middle of the North York Moors National Park - meaning it's a doddle to visit all the sites of interest around the Moors.

Ralph's Cross on Blakey Ridge is a Unique Moorland Marker.

· Although Rosedale Abbey is a "remote" and out-of-the-way village, it is also only a few miles to drive to the historic local market towns like Kirkbymoorside, Pickering, Helmsley and Whitby.

· Rosedale Abbey offers a really good choice of accommodation including B+Bs, historic Inns and Hotels, self-catering cottages like Rosella Cottage, and even camping and caravaning.  

· Rosedale is widely known for its great selection of walking, cycling, running, birdwatching and other outdoor-pursuits;

· Children love the freedom on offer in Rosedale; happy family memories are created right here every summer.

· We have massive industrial archeology and monumental remains of the Victorain iron-mining revolution to explore and astound.  

· Our deep wooded valley is surrounded by Moors and beautiful countryside that is simply stunning.

· Rosedale offers a tranquil and special retreat from the stresses of busy modern urban life.

· Once you arrive, you can put the car away and just enjoy our three local cafes and a choice of four historic Country Inns.

· If you visit in late July, August or September, you'll be blown away as the Moors are transformed into a simply stunning sea of purple heather in flower.
