Handale Log Cabin - Whitby

The village of Danby nestles in the Esk Valley in the heart of The North York Moors. The village has two pubs (both serving food), a bakery and tearooms. There is also a National Park Visitor Centre at Danby Lodge - an historic building set in 13 acres of riverside pasture, with facilities which include exhibitions, nature trails and tearooms. Danby also boasts the ruins of a 14th Century castle and the only remaining working water mill on the River Esk. The scenic Esk Valley Railway line runs through the village on its way to Whitby. The quaint moorland villages of Hutton-le-Hole and Lastingham, the market town of Pickering, the City of York and the Yorkshire Coast villages of Staithes, Saltburn and Robin Hood's Bay are all within easy touring distance.
