We started walking the Cleveland Way in July from the start/end point in Helmsley near the carpark. The walk begins at a triangular stone sculpture carved with the name of the walk and the national trail acorn logo. We walked a stretch most weekends and finished early September. The Cleveland Way ends in Filey at a similar, larger, triangular stone sculpture. Day 1: Helmsley to Sutton Bank (18.81kms) Day 2: Sutton Bank to Osmotherley (19.46kms) Day 3: Osmotherley to Clay Bank (19.57kms) Day 4: Clay Bank to Captain Cook’s Monument (19.79kms) Day 5: Captain Cook’s Monument to Saltburn (21.08kms) Day 6: Saltburn to Sandsend (29.3kms) Day 7: Sandsend to Ravenscar (24.79kms) Day 8: Ravenscar to Filey (34.1kms) I enjoyed following the white acorn signposts all along the Cleveland Way, it felt almost like a treasure trail :-) Paths varied so much from flat stone paths, bumpy pebble paths, grass, mud, the occasional stretch along a tarmac road and everything in between! Walking through fields, woods, across moorlands, many bridges and then along the coast with the many ups and downs and occasional boardwalks. We were blessed with lovely weather on 6 of our 8 days and took many AMAZING photos. The first half of the Cleveland Way is more varied with regards to scenery, the second half is entirely coastal with only the occasional short detour slightly inland to go through a woodland valley. The coastal views are spectacular! But so are the open moorland stretches! Every day was a delight and I am so glad we had the opportunity to experience the English countryside in all its glory, and right on our doorstep too! I've reviewed the different locations we passed through on our mammoth hike separately, see other reviews for more information. I couldn't pick a favourite part of our hike, as each day was so different! But I would recommend anyone with reasonable fitness to take the time to experience our beautiful countryside.

Well worth the steep descent and clamber across the rocks to get a view of this majestic waterfall. Nature at its finest. Just stunning

For a full day out with the family, head to The Moors National Park Centre, set in an idyllic spot on the banks of the river Esk on the outskirts of the village of Danby. For kids, there's an outdoor adventure play area and mud kitchen, indoor climbing wall, and events every school holiday. There are pushchair and wheelchair friendly woodland and riverside trails around the grounds and plenty of picnic areas and seating if you just want to sit back and soak up the fantastic views across the Esk Valley. There's also interactive exhibits inside and the acclaimed Inspired by... gallery with changing exhibitions by contemporary artists. There's an Information Centre, gift shop specialising in local produce and crafts, and café. Admission is free. Pay & Display parking.
My friend and i visited last week (16th July 2020). We had a cup of coffee each, and sat outside in the nice sunshine. Social distancing means one at a time at the counter. There were a few seats inside. Quick and friendly service and nice coffee. The centre itself was open but on this occasion we didnt visit, though have done in the past and its well worth a quick look round.

Staying here was a highlight of the Coast To Coast walk. A wonderful welcoming B&B with first class facilities, superb showers and a drying room for wet boots (most welcome!!). As for food, the sourdough pizza that I had in the café below the B&B was a gastronomic treat. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat !

The Original Robin Hood’s Bay Ghost Walk. Take a Unique Tour through Streets and Alleyways as you listen to Tales of the Strange and Supernatural set against a background of Smugglers, Sailors and Shipwrecks, Folklore and Legend. Meet at the Slipway in the Dock outside the Visitor Centre. Dates and times are published on Facebook and the website. There is also a Board showing times, next to the Slipway on days of Walks. This walk is designed to suit most ages. Content for adult only groups will be slightly different to groups with children. But overall it is to amuse, entertain, to be thought provoking and informative. However, the walk is not suitable for small infants (under 3), babies and pushchairs. Only very quiet well behaved dogs please.

We visited Goathland and the North Yorkshire Moors railway and I’m so pleased that we did, the station is full of historical items and posters from the bygone era, the staff are very knowledgeable and will chat to you telling you about the history of the station, The steam train from Pickering to Grosmont which is the next station up is an absolute must if you can go on it id highly recommend it, The train is one of those that was used for filming in Harry Potter so the children will be overjoyed to do this trip, We loved visiting here it was lovely to see the sheep roaming free on the moors and also the Public house and scripps garage used for filming the series Heartbeat You honestly won’t be disappointed for stopping off here it’s truly beautiful
