This visitor centre is situated in the heart of the North York Moors National Park, offering stunning views of the surrounding countryside. The centre features interactive exhibitions, a gallery showcasing local artwork, and a shop selling local produce and souvenirs. Visitors can enjoy a warm welcome and expert advice from the friendly staff, who can help plan walks, bike rides, and other activities in the national park. The centre also provides a convenient base for exploring the nearby villages, moorland, and scenic valleys.
Great day out, very friendly and helpful staff at the visitor centre and bike hire company. Enjoyed cycling along the well marked cycle trails and the views were simply stunning. Would love to come back and experience the dark skies sometime too.
Great views across the county from the short walk from the visitor centre. Paths are well made and accessible by wheelchair. Parking is charged, so remember to pay at one of the many machines. We visited in the evening so the visitor centre was closed.
Not been for a while, nice walk to see "England's finest view". Cafe on site, toilets, bike hire, shop, and visitor information. A nice inside interactive area for the children with microscopes, sand play to educate about rivers, and various colouring/ quiz type activities. An outside play area for the younger ones.
Great place to visit, parking is plentiful and PS5.50 for all day. The main centre has toilets a cafe and shop. There is bike hire available and also tramper for people with disabilities. A great starting point for several of the signposted walks all of which are on good pathways. Incredible views and a great visit
Beautiful day for a trip up to see these beautiful views. Lovely walk and viewpoint. Certainly does not disappoint. Nice visitor shop and coffee shop for refreshments and gifts.
An excellent and really interesting historical guided walk about The Battle of Byland. Harry Pearson is a great story teller; he gave historical context and really brought the battle to life as we walked in the footsteps of the Scottish soldiers. I would highly recommend if this is put on again. The only minor thing that let it down was that the walk back to the centre was a bit on the slow side.
