Thirsk is superbly positioned midway between the North Yorkshire Moors and the beautiful Yorkshire Dales, where days out can be spent exploring the numerous walking and cycling trails, the picturesque villages and the welcoming country inns serving local ales and hearty meals. The medieval city of York and the elegant spa town of Harrogate are within a 40-minute drive, and the coastal resorts of Scarborough, Whitby and Filey are easily accessible. Visit historic houses at Beningbrough and Castle Howard, and explore the monastery ruins at Fountains Abbey and Rievaulx.
