Welcome to Thixendale

Thixendale is a small village located in the Ryedale district of North Yorkshire, England. The village is situated in the heart of the Yorkshire Wolds, which is an area of rolling hills and valleys that is known for its stunning natural beauty. Thixendale is surrounded by picturesque countryside, and there are many walking and cycling routes that visitors can explore to take in the stunning scenery.

One of the main attractions in Thixendale is the Yorkshire Wolds Way National Trail, which passes through the village. This long-distance footpath stretches for 79 miles and takes walkers through some of the most beautiful landscapes in the region. The trail is well-marked and offers a range of different terrains, from gentle rolling hills to steep climbs and descents. Visitors can also explore the local area by bike, with many quiet country lanes and off-road tracks to choose from.

Thixendale is also home to a number of historic landmarks and attractions. The village itself has a rich history, with evidence of human habitation dating back to the Bronze Age. Visitors can explore the local church, which dates back to the 12th century, or visit the nearby Wharram Percy deserted medieval village. Other nearby attractions include the stately home of Castle Howard, the market town of Malton, and the seaside resort of Scarborough.
