Make North Yorkshire your autumn and winter retreat

As the crowds thin and the leaves change, North Yorkshire becomes a haven for peaceful escapes and cosy adventures. Picture yourself wrapped up warm, crunching through crisp leaves on woodland walks or cycling through endless forests. Test yourself with invigorating winter hikes in the countryside or a bracing walk on clifftops, and let the sea air awaken your senses.

After a day outdoors, get cosy in welcoming accommodation where you can snuggle up by a log burner and listen to the soothing rhythm of rain on the windows with a steaming mug of hot chocolate.

Step aboard a heritage steam train and glide through dramatic moorland scenery, or spend a quiet afternoon being inspired by exhibitions at grand stately homes.

Autumn brings a flavourful twist with food and drink festivals celebrating local produce, while North Yorkshire’s plethora of cosy inns and cafés offer comfort in every delicious bite.

The slower season is the perfect time to explore charming market towns and villages at your own pace. Get into the festive spirit early and browse unique, locally made gifts and treasures you won’t find anywhere else
