Idyllic and stunning Moors village that became prominent in the 19th Century as a spa destination, but most (older!) people will remember it as the fictional village of Aidensfield from the television drama "Heartbeat". You can still see Aidensfield Post Office, Aidensfield Stores, the old police car, and of course Scripps Funeral Services and Aidensfield Garage. A very popular destination in the spring and summer, being served by the North York Moors Railway, with easy access to nearby Moorland. Several cafes and restaurants to eat at, the fish and chips at the Inn on the Moor is excellent.

The Anchor Inn Bar

Highlight • Cafe

Useful waypoint, the track to Mallyan Spout runs along the eastern side of the Mallyan Spout Bar, very easy to find (see photos), and just to the west of the hotel is the bridleway leading up onto Moss Rigg, for easy Moors access.

Mallyan Spout Waterfall

Highlight • Natural Monument

With a vertical drop of 70 feet (21 m), Mallyan Spout is the tallest waterfall in the North York Moors. When you arrive at the waterfall, prepare to have your breath taken – the epic site has captivated visitors since Victorian times. The path to the waterfall can be technical in places, so sturdy shoes are recommended.

Beck Hole

Highlight • Historical Site

Originally founded in the 13th century (known as 'Amerholm' back then), this is a delightful Esk Valley village, with what is known as 'Yorkshire's smallest pub': Birch Hall Inn.
