Map of the UK

Wrelton is a small village and civil parish on the southern edge of the North York Moors in North Yorkshire, a few miles from the market town of Pickering. Set among rolling limestone and mixed arable and pastureland, it makes a quiet base for walkers and cyclists exploring moorland, coastal scenery and the nearby heritage line, the North Yorkshire Moors Railway.

Historically rooted in agriculture, the local economy still leans on farming but has broadened to include holiday accommodation and rural services, so tourism plays a seasonal role. The village retains many stone cottages and a strong community feel, with local clubs and events reflecting a long farming tradition and easy access to attractions on the moors and the coast around Whitby.
