Thirsk, a bustling market town in the Yorkshire Dales and the gateway to the North York Moors National Parks on the east and the Yorkshire Dales on the west, is home to beautiful Georgian buildings, a Norman church, and a variety of great pubs, shops, and restaurants. Explore the town’s famed vet and novelist, James Herriott, at the World of James Herriott Museum, or take a walk through the Hambleton Hills and surrounding countryside. York, with its magnificent cathedral, and the stunning East Coast are both within striking distance.
