Robert E Fuller

Showcasing the work of leading wildlife artist Robert E Fuller, this gallery is a must for anyone who loves the countryside. On show are detailed paintings, limited edition prints and photographs of wildlife from around the world. Informative films and live nest cameras relaying footage from cameras hidden in animal nests in the surrounding countryside are also available to watch. Robert is recognised as a leading authority on wildlife and his TV animal documentaries have been broadcast internationally. He spends months in the field watching and photographing wildlife and this depth of understanding makes his work sing out. Original oil paintings and bronze sculptures of wildlife all come to life through his inimitable, realistic style.

Palace Cinema Malton

Reviewed By RachelJayne35 - Malton, United Kingdom

I love it here, I’d much rather go to the palace than drive to York for the big chain cinemas. Plenty of legroom and reasonably priced snacks and drinks.

The Farmhouse Bakery

Reviewed By GrahamM482 - Nottingham, United Kingdom

Have just visited this establishment for afternoon tea. What a special occasion it was. Excellent food superbly served in a friendly atmosphere. Food could not be surpassed with as much Yorkshire tea as could be drunk. The special treat was sparkling elderflower water served with the meal. Thank you for an excellent meal.

Scampston Walled Garden

Reviewed By AnneAlan46 - Maldon, United Kingdom

For us the "Walled Garden" was a sensational piece of modern design created by leading Dutch garden designer Piet Oudolf in 1999 and is now beautifully mature. The walled garden is divided into twelve areas each with a different theme. All an inspiration for any gardener. A big plus is a nursery where you can purchase many of the same plants that are growing in the gardens, and receive expert advice. Cafe was good too with excellent cakes, loved the Bakewell tart due to Covid-19 there is only outside seating In addition there is the Parkland laid out by by "Capability" Brown in 1771. We walked around the guided trail through the parkland and enjoyed the stunning views. There is also Scampston Hall to visit but it was not open the day we visited due to Covid-19. To do everything you would need a whole day but our purpose was the gardens.

What a lovely, thoughtfully put together place! We visited Wolds Way with our 17 month old toddler, and she loved it! Lots of space to run around and plenty to look at, and the miniature train ride was great. I think this would be good for much older kids too, it’s well organised with lots of interesting areas such as the nature maze with outdoor games and orienteering, bug hotels, bird hide, playground and the mud and sand kitchen. It’s a relaxing place to wander through the wild flower meadows and lavender rows. Staff were lovely and it felt safe and clean in the current pandemic. Large picnic area too - recommend you bring one at the moment as I think the current food offerings are limited.

Wharram Percy Deserted Medieval Village

Reviewed By andycreeduk - Stratford-upon-Avon, United Kingdom

What a great earlier write up from QueenCalvert. I thoroughly enjoyed the walk to Wharram Percy and I do agree that more could be done with this site without destroying the isolated beauty of the area. Was fascinated with the boards but after 40 years of excavations over the village I am sure there must be more still that we could be told. That said, a lovely walk and we just beat the rains! Have no trouble recommending and for me it was still 5 stars.
