Best Nature and Parks (RV, National, Dog, etc) in Pickering

"Just a stone's throw from the centre of Whitby, Pannett Park offers a haven of peace and quiet with an exciting new play park for children and beautifully kept gardens, lawns and wooded areas for the whole family to enjoy. Click here to view the Friends of Pannett Park website."

"Pannett Park, a haven of peace and tranquillity and located close to the centre of Whitby in North Yorkshire, is well worth a visit, whichever season of the year. Excellent for family and nature walks."

"Just behind the North Bay is the fanciful Peasholm Park, designed in an Oriental style in 1912. At that time the park was Scarborough’s venue of choice for extravagant galas and exhibitions, but its glory faded as the century wore on. The park closed in 1999 after its pagoda was damaged by arson, but reopened in the 2000s and is now a treasured part of the resort."

"There is a miniature railway which will take you to Scalby Mills and back with a miniature steam train. A must visit when in Scarborough. Address : North Bay, Scarborough YO12 7TR, United Kingdom"

"Just south of the spa, the South Cliff Italian Gardens were plotted at the turn of the 20th century and sit on a terrace that bends with the contours of the cliff. In the Italian Renaissance style, the gardens have geometric flowerbeds, a lily pond topped with a statue of Mercury and two very ceremonious stairways climbing to shelters beneath pergolas dating to 1914. It’s all part of a long tapestry of open spaces, including a rose garden and a cliff-top path with wonderful vistas back to the castle, all equipped with stairways and the Cliff Lifts down to the beach."

"It has lots of flowers, well arranged in and around sitting areas. A good place to relax while walking around the South bay. Highly recommended to take some monkey nuts and feed the squirrels."

"Sealife Sanctuary at North Bay has long been a family favourite attraction housed within three distinct triangular buildings on the resort’s main headland and featuring a mix of indoor and outdoor marine exhibits. See seals, penguins, otters and more and this hands-on interactive underwater world. There’s plenty of opportunity for rock pooling and a host of year round children’s activities and events."

"Located just moments away from Whitby's harbour, just off Church Street, Sanders Yard Bistro is a charming restaurant and coffee shop serving freshly cooked ..."

"Whitby Brewery is housed in a converted barn, where a small bar serves five cask beers and a selection of bottles all produced on-site. Knowledgeable and friendly staff pull the pints, making it the perfect spot to refuel after trekking up the 199 steps. Sit on one of the beer barrel stools and sink a pint of Whitby Whaler right next to the tanks in which it was made."

"New brewery tap in the Brewery’s new premises, standing in the shadow of Whitby Abbey, overlooking the sea. A selection of Whitby Brewery’s beers are on hand pull. You can park your car close by, or you can climb the 199 Abbey steps to get there."

"Walkers are pleased as punch when they find this place on the clifftop behind Whitby Abbey. There's just enough room inside the modern brew plant for three tables – half the space is taken up by a gloriously..."

"Scarborough’s vast open air theatre is located within Northstead Manor Gardens in the North Bay area and offers a packed programme of concerts featuring some of the biggest names in pop music. Ranked as the largest open air theatre in Europe, the venue is impressive and has a rich history as a natural amphitheatre dating back to the 1930s. A host of food and drink outlets are on-site alongside ample parking and merchandise stalls"

"At the base of the cliffs on South Bay, the Spa is a 19th-century complex of performance venues erected at the site of Scarborough’s natural springs. The current Grand Hall opened in 1880 after the previous spa saloon burnt down in 1876. The complex is nearly half a mile in length and you can reach it via the magnificent Spa Bridge, dating to 1827, and the South Cliff Lift from 1873."
