The abbey is worth a stroll round. Nice walks in Dalby forest. There is a village (forget its name) that has a cultural history museum in with houses from lots of different periods - really interesting. Castle Howard. Can't remember what else we did when we were there - oh yes, a boat trip from Whitby.
