There’s a lot to do in and around Helmsley, as you can enjoy this pretty town as well as enjoying the wide open spaces of the North York Moors on your doorstep, too.
Helmsley on the Map
If driving from Thirsk to Scarborough, after taking in the impressive Sutton Bank (in a low gear!) you’ll find Helmsley just before half way along the A170.
Helmsley does not have a train station, since passenger services ended in the 1950s. There is a train station at Thirsk and more mainline services slightly further away at York, meaning Helmsley is easiest to visit in a motor vehicle. If you are travelling by car, however, Helmsley makes an excellent base to explore the nearby delights of Yorkshire, as you are roughly equidistant from several fantastic treats: take a day trip to York or Scarborough, explore the North York Moors, or simply spend a relaxing time exploring Helmsley itself.
Where Next?
Have a look round Kirkbymooorside, or travel the short distance to Ampleforth. Also well worth a trip is Byland Abbey; like much of the North York Moors – it is outstanding, steeped in history, and surrounded by glorious views.
