Welcome to Old Byland

Old Byland is a small village located in the North Yorkshire Moors National Park. The village is known for its beautiful countryside, stunning views, and rich history. The village is surrounded by rolling hills, lush green fields, and dense forests, making it a perfect destination for nature lovers. The village is also home to several historic buildings, including the Old Byland Hall, which dates back to the 17th century.

One of the most popular attractions in Old Byland is the ruins of the Byland Abbey. The abbey was founded in the 12th century and was one of the most important religious centers in the region. The abbey was destroyed during the dissolution of the monasteries in the 16th century, but the ruins still stand today and are a popular destination for tourists. The abbey is surrounded by beautiful gardens and offers stunning views of the surrounding countryside.

Old Byland is also a popular destination for hikers and walkers. The village is located on the Cleveland Way, a long-distance footpath that runs through the North York Moors National Park. The path offers stunning views of the countryside and passes through several historic sites, including the ruins of the Rievaulx Abbey. The village is also home to several pubs and restaurants, where visitors can enjoy a traditional Yorkshire meal and a pint of local ale.
