The name doesn’t really do it justice, because the North York Moors National Park, which lies to the northeast of the city of York, is far more than just moorland. Instead, it comprises a judicious mix of sea, sky, heathland, woodland and fertile river valleys, in equal helpings. A sprinkling of handsome towns, a smattering of ruined abbeys, some great local food producers and locals who just love it here. You will too, once you’ve had a good look round.
