Si King, known from the Hairy Bikers, will share food and stories at the festival. He will talk about his first solo cookbook, Proper Home Cooking, and share highlights from his career.

Falling Foss Tea Garden is now open every weekend throughout July and August. 🌿

Good news for summer walkers, waterfall chasers and cake lovers: Falling Foss Tea Garden will be open every weekend throughout July and August.

Tucked away in the grounds of Midge Hall, beside the beautiful Falling Foss Waterfall, this rustic outdoor tea garden is one of the North York Moors’ loveliest hidden gems. Think picnic tables, wellies and woodland views rather than fine china and tablecloths.

Visitors can enjoy freshly baked scones with jam and cream, homemade cakes, barista coffee, speciality teas and locally made dairy ice cream, all served in the heart of an ancient forest.

It’s also the perfect stop-off after exploring nearby walking routes. One of our favourites is the Hermitage and Falling Foss circular walk, a short but magical route through Littlebeck Woods featuring a hidden hermit’s cave, peaceful woodland paths, the waterfall and, of course, a well-earned tea garden treat at the end.

Just a 15-minute drive from Whitby, it’s a lovely little summer adventure for anyone looking to slow down, breathe in the forest air and let nature do the rest.

📍 Start: Foss Lane car park, Foss Ln, North Yorkshire YO22
🚗 Distance from Whitby: Around 15 minutes by car
🥾 Walk idea: Hermitage and Falling Foss Tea Garden circular
🍰 Open: Every weekend throughout July and August
