Happy New Year! And hasn't it been a wet start to the year?

With all the rainfall you'd be forgiven for wanting to stay at home and holiday later on in 2024. But we know that Yorkshire is a great place to visit at any time of year - take a look at our January blog for ideas of some great weatherproof activities that you can do whenever you like and whatever the weather.

Billy Connolly once said "there's no such things as bad weather, only the wrong clothes" and while he's right, it's been more than a bit wet lately. As much as we love a long walk across the Moors, sometimes the Yorkshire weather is a bit much. On those occasions it's nice to know that whatever you'...

Round Hill on Urra Moor is the highest point in the North Yorkshire Moors. If you fancy an all-day hike with fantastic views it's well worth taking a trip and following one of the trails.

It's about 45 minutes' drive from Lock Cottage and well worth the trip.

Begin the route at the Chop Gate Village Hall car park and walk north along the main road. At the Methodist Chapel, turn off the road onto Chop Gate Lane following the signposts for Carlton and Lord Stones. Continue along the path along the moorland and you will reach the Cleveland Way, which leads....

It's day. The North Yorkshire Moors are a great place for walking. This pic is a family walk we took up on the Moors out of Hutton le Hole a couple of years ago, which took us through Cropton and Lastingham before looping back down to Hutton le Hole.

There are loads of walks you can do directly from Lock Cottage - you can see 3 of our favourites via our blog: https://www.lockcottageyorkshire.co.uk/post/3-walks-from-lockton
