On the most scenic bus route in Britain to Whitby, on the top of a double-decker bus.
Leaving Thornton Dale
in the direction of Dalby Forest
Heading down Saltersgate Bank
with Fylingdales early warning system in view, the blob on the horizon
towards the village of Goathland
or Aidensfield as lovers of Heartbeat may know it.
Or from the first Harry Potter film, the station for Hogwarts
oh may there be any wizards on board?
Beware of sheep on the road
past the village church
past the shops-Might that be Ventriss’s car?
and finally into Whitby
for some bracing sea air.
On the return journey we got to see the Hole of Horcum
hope you enjoyed the ride.

We hired a holiday cottage, formerly part of a farm, a couple of times near Fylingdales. Once over Christmas where I developed proper flu on the first day and couldn’t even eat Christmas Day lunch. We had to cancel our visitors coming too. Then back for Valentines Day to make up for it!
Loved it. Never been there but it’s somewhere I fancy. Thanks
A very scenic journey. Just lovely. X
It is such a beautiful part of the world x
It’s certainly different scenery to most of the bus rides I used to take in London.
My daughter and I have been watching the series ‘Escape to the Country’ on Netflix so we can see that kind of scenery. We lust after it. Your photos make me do the same thing. I would love to travel there.Just gorgeous!
If you ever get the chance let me know, and we can ride together.
So very green, and those rolling hills are really beautiful. Thanks for taking us with!
Glad you enjoyed it.
Lovely ride! So pretty!
Thank you
I did enjoy the ride, thank you so much ^^
That is good, you are welcome.

It was perfect and a good day for Mr E to take.
I enjoyed the ride very much! would love to do it for real.
It was great fun and there were a lot of us oldies with our bus passes on board.
What a lovely trip! I remember touring the area and visiting both ‘Aidensfield’ and Whitby with my parents a couple of years ago. Truly beautiful countryside
I am happy that it reminded you of the trip with your parents.
I certainly did enjoy the ride! Gorgeous!
I am pleased about that.
Hi Cathy….thank you for the ride 🙂I have not regretted moving here nearly four years ago…..there is such beautiful countryside all around us..It certainly is “gods own country”…I haven’t gone back south since not even to visit…. my little family always come to me!!…..I feel so blessed to be able to live in this part of the world……
Have a lovely Sunday….
