The English countryside is filled with underrated gems waiting to be explored. Take Pickering, for example. Located near North York Moors National Park, Pickering is a historic market town with so much to offer the discerning tourist. Landmarks include Pickering Church, which dates back to the Saxon period (15th century), and Beck Isle Museum, where you can learn about the town’s social history. If you don’t have time to explore North York Moors, you can hop on a heritage train that runs through the park. You can also check out the local arts and culture scene by checking what’s on schedule at Memorial Hall, Friends Meeting House, and Kirk Theatre. Another way to discover the surrounding countryside is to go glamping. Browse through our list of the best glamping spots in Pickering, UK.
