We then make our way to the interesting Ryedale Folk Museum - a unique visitor attraction in the picturesque village of Hutton-le-Hole and where the history of Ryedale and the North York Moors is brought to life through the museum's buildings and collections.
After a morning at leisure, we visit the fantastic Scarborough Fair Collection this afternoon which features a magnificent collection of vintage cars, steam engines, vintage fairground rides and mechanical organs, and is famous for its ballroom and sequence dance afternoons.
