Last Saturday we decided to go to Helmsley for the afternoon. Helmsley is a little town in North Yorkshire that used to be one of our regular destinations on a Sunday afternoon before we moved to York. It’s tiny but cute as hell. Highlights are Helmsley Brewery which has delicious beer. There’s also a traditional sweet shop, a couple of delis that sell amazing pork pies and a handful of pubs.
They have a traditional fish and chip shop that is amazing and always packed. We’ve been to the Indian place there many times, Helmsley Spice, for meals. The market town also has a castle you can visit, which you do have to pay to go in.
They often have things going on in the town hall. There was a gin festival last week!
If you are in the area, then this cute town is worth a visit.
G'wan, delve a little further..
It sounds like a lovely spot to visit, and you got some beautiful photos! I’ve never heard of it before though, so thank you for the introduction to the town! 🙂
Hope that you are having a wonderful weekend! I spent some time shopping yesterday which was lovely 🙂

What an adorable little place! If I’m ever nearby I’ll be sure to visit! You can’t beat traditional fish and chips!
