Ref: 1293 Beckside    
LASTINGHAM Pickering 7 miles; Yorkshire Coast 25 miles; York 30 miles. The charming village of Lastingham engenders peace and relaxation and has much to offer today's holidaymaker. It is a place of unique beauty and historic interest, nestling among the folds of hills at the southern edge of the North York Moors. This quiet haven, with less than 100 inhabitants, has a charming olde worlde pub, The Blacksmith's Arms, but perhaps its most famous building is the splendid and historic Crypt Church of St Mary with its wonderful ancient crypt. The surrounding area has many and varied attractions - The North York Moors Steam Railway, Hutton-le-Hole Folk Museum, Eden Camp Modern History Museum and Flamingo Land Theme Park. There's an abundance of castles, abbeys, churches and stately homes to visit, including the magnificent Castle Howard. Last, but not least, there's the glorious countryside - woodland and heather moorland, hills, dales and coast.

| Previous Visitors' Comments | We loved the whole package. Soothing, relaxing, to go to sleep and wake up in the morning to the sound of the water lapping from the beck - brilliant. We certainly shall be back and we have already spread the word and told all of our friends. Plenty of things to do all within a short distance - who could ask for anything more.
Loved the walks - even the ones on the doorstep on to the moors.
Mr Rollo, Haddington, East Lothian
