June 1, 2024, View of the Kilburn White Horse from High Leys

Panoramic views of the White Horse above Kilburn and the ridge line above the villages of Oldstead and Wass to the north.

Parking spaces for at least half a dozen cars alongside this small lake, lots of ducks and swans, who are clearly accustomed to being fed by people judging from the way they flock towards you! Very scenic and a great place to start a walk from.

June 1, 2024, Coxwold Village

Pretty village with an informative website if local history is your thing. Recorded under the name of Cucvalt in the Domesday Book, and the local church is where George Orby Wombwell, the last surviving officer of the Charge of the Light Brigade, is buried.

easy route to follow - more than half on tarmac but quiet roads and beautiful views

It's a pleasant run on Beacon Banks, although the trees and shrubbery obscures (for the most part) the rather impressive views from above to the north (including the view of the Kilburn White Horse). There is a Beacon Banks trig point too, but it might be obscured by gorse... see if you can find it!

The very impressive Newburgh Priory is the home of the Wombwell family. It was founded in 1145, and was an Augustinian priory before becoming the House that it is today. You can visit the House and Gardens, but only between April and June at a fee that doesn't seem too high. The place is quite stunning. Oh, and there is a tearoom!

A lovely little lake here, with benches to sit on and enjoy it, right next to where Colley Broach Road and Oulston Roads meet. You've got Newburgh Priory right next to you here, which is a spectacular place to look at (and can be visited between April and June).
