    Tips

    The village of Castleton on the River Esk is a great base from which to explore the beautiful North York Moors National Park. It is the start point for the Esk Valley Walk long-distance trail, which ends in Whitby.

    It has a station on the Esk Valley Line between Middlesborough and Whitby and is also host to a number of amenities. There's a small supermarket for stocking up on supplies and a couple of pubs that serve excellent food. The Downe Arms has bed and breakfast rooms and there are a few other private rental options in the village.

      Useful landmark village with numerous routeing options and a useful supermarket for resupplying if you need to, but generally not quite as inspiring as Danby and Lealholm to the east, the latter of which is very picturesque.
