Make sure to take the additional peninsular part of the ride though beautiful Hambleton and past Hambleton Hall where we stayed. It has an excellent Michelin Star restaurant open to non residents

Interesting details are parts of the medieval wall and a rather blackened balance which survived when the earlier shop burned.

Home of the original pork pie - the special seasonal editions and cheese topped ones add a nice extra layer of flavour to the classic.
