Map of the UK

Osmotherley is a compact stone-built village in North Yorkshire, perched on the western edge of the North York Moors. Cod Beck runs through the settlement and the village sits beneath the open Hambleton Hills, giving easy access to moorland, panoramic views and nearby prehistoric barrows.

With medieval roots and a cluster of 17th- and 18th-century cottages centred around a village green and St Peter's Church, Osmotherley grew as a coaching and droving stop and is now a popular walking hub on routes such as the Cleveland Way and the Lyke Wake Walk. The local economy leans on tourism, inns and small shops, while nearby attractions like Mount Grace Priory and an active community calendar give it a lively seasonal and social character.
