How many National Trusts are there in Yorkshire?

There are 22 National Trust sites in Yorkshire. This means you don’t need to go far to discover some spectacular historic sites in the region.

Here is your complete guide to National Trust sites in Yorkshire to start planning your next day out.

National Trust in North Yorkshire

There are a total of 13 National Trust sites dotted across North Yorkshire.

These include some of the most striking natural wonders, one-of-a-kind historic buildings and world-renowned sights.

Here is an overview of all the sites owned by the National Trust in North Yorkshire.

Ormesby Hall

Ormesby Hall is a Palladian style, Grade I listed building in Ormesby near Middlesborough.

The house was the home of the Pennyman family for over 400 years before it was taken into the care of the National Trust.

A stroll through the house gives you a unique insight into the life of the Pennyman family throughout the generations.

This intimate family home gives you the chance to get to know the family as you explore the rooms.

As well as the house, a wander through the gardens is essential. You will discover vibrant and colourful seasonal displays throughout the year.

Address: Ormesby Hall, Church Lane, Ormesby, Middlesbrough, TS7 9AS

Roseberry Topping

Roseberry Topping is an iconic hill in the North York Moors. It is easily recognisable due to its distinct shape.

The unusual half-cone shape resembles a large dollop of whipped cream! And it has been likened to the much larger Matterhorn in the Alps.

If you are up for a challenge, don’t miss the chance to take the short but steep ascent to the top of the hill.

The walk will take around 90 minutes to reach the top, but your efforts will be rewarded with spectacular views for miles!

Address: Roseberry Topping Public Car Park, Guisborough, Newton under Roseberry, Middlesbrough, TS9 6QS

Mount Grace Priory

Also nestled within the North York Moors National Park, you will find Mount Grace Priory.

The ruins are one of only a handful of Carthusian priories that existed in the Middle Ages. Mount Grace Priory is the best preserved of all the remaining Carthusian priories.

The priory or charterhouse was founded in 1398. The National Trust now owns the priory, but it sits in the care of English Heritage .

As well exploring as the priory ruins, take the time to explore the pretty Arts and Crafts manor house and stunning gardens!

Address: Mount Grace Priory, Staddlebridge House, Mount Bank, Northallerton, DL6 3JG

Bridestones, Crosscliff and Blakey Topping

The Bridestones are unique rock formation in the North York Moors. Take the opportunity to admire them while soaking up breath-taking moorland views.

Climb to the top of Blakey Topping for a spectacular sweeping view, and roam amongst heather moorland, ancient woodland, and picturesque meadows.

This is the ideal location for a day of walking in the incredible North Yorkshire countryside.

Address: Staindale, Dalby, Pickering, YO18 7LR

Rievaulx Terrace

Designed by the Duncombe family in the 18th century, Rievaulx Terrace was built to impress.

It is considered one of Yorkshire’s finest landscape architecture examples of the time.

Experience grand temples, beautiful woodlands, and spectacular views of the incredible Rievaulx Abbey ruins.

During your visit, be sure to spot the two temples in the gardens. The Ionic Temple uses Classical Roman designs, and the Tuscan Temple is adorned with paintings and plaster work.

Address: Rievaulx Terrace, Rievaulx, Helmsley, York YO62 5LJ

Nunnington Hall

The beautiful manor house of Nunnington Hall is nestled on the banks of the River Rye. It is packed with stunning period rooms for you to explore.

Nunnington Hall is renowned for owning one of the world’s finest collections of miniature rooms, located in the attic.

You can also experience the stunning walled garden and meet the resident peacocks.

Nunnington Hall also plays host to a series of events throughout the year including art and photography exhibitions and makers fairs.

Address: Nunnington Hall, Nunnington, York, YO62 5UY

Beningbrough Hall

Beningbrough Hall is set in rolling parkland and surrounded by woodland and riverside walks.

The hall has a fascinating history. From the teenager who inherited it to the use as an RAF billet. Beningbrough Hall has seen a lot over the last 300 years!

Explore the garden and observe its evolution as it undergoes significant new designs and planting schemes.

Note that the hall and galleries are currently closed at this time due to ongoing conservation work.

Address: Beningbrough Hall, Gallery and Gardens, York, YO30 1DD

Once the home of the Terry family (yes, the Chocolate Orange one!) Goddards now opens its gardens from spring to autumn for visitors to enjoy.

Take a relaxing stroll through five acres of pretty garden ‘rooms’ as you admire each garden theme.

From the paddock orchard, you can catch a glimpse of the former Terry factory clock, overlooking the racecourse.

Address: Goddards, 27 Tadcaster Road, Dringhouses, York, YO24 1GG

Fountains Abbey

When you come across a site part owned by both English Heritage and National Trust, which is also considered a UNESCO World Heritage Site, you’ve hit the perfect trifecta of national gems.

And that’s exactly what Fountains Abbey is.

Fountains Abbey is one of the largest and best-preserved ruined Cistercian monasteries in England.

On the site you can explore both the abbey ruins, plus the neighbouring Georgian water garden of Studley Royal.

A trip to Fountains Abbey is a full day experience to take in everything across this sprawling site.

Address: Fountains Abbey, Fountains, Ripon, HG4 3DY

Brimham Rocks

Brimham Rocks is Nidderdale’s best known attraction. It is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) that is maintained by the National Trust and is just four miles from the village of Pateley Bridge .

The site is a collection of natural rock formations that were formed over 325 million years ago.

Brimham Rocks is a popular attraction for people who want to admire the rock formations on a stroll through the grounds.

Visitors can also scramble up the rocks and admire some of the incredible views. It is also a popular sport for climbers to practice their skills.

Address: Brimham Rocks, Brimham Moor Road, Summerbridge, Harrogate, HG3 4DW

Braithwaite Hall

This grand 17th century farmhouse is not typical of the surrounding buildings in Coverdale.

It is believed that the unusually grand appearance is linked to the development of lead mining on the estate.

Inside the hall you will find a grand stone flagged entrance hall, beautiful oak panelled drawing room and impressive oak staircase.

The grounds are also a great insight into the use of the land throughout the centuries.

Throughout the months of June, July and August, Braithwaite Hall is open to the public on select dates.

Address: Braithwaite Hall, Braithwaite Lane, Leyburn, DL8 4SY

Treasurer’s House

The grand historic house of Treasurer’s House is tucked behind York Minster, right in the centre of York.

The impressive house and gardens welcome visitors through the spring and summer months.

Frank Green bought this historic building in 1897. He elaborately decorated the town house in anticipation of a particularly important royal visitor.

Today you can explore this beautiful building and gardens or take a tour to learn the history in more detail.

It is a charming place with a fascinating history to explore!

Address: Treasurer’s House, Minster Yard, York, YO1 7JL

Middlethorpe Hall Hotel

For a unique National Trust experience, book yourself a stay at Middlethorpe Hall Hotel and Spa.

This luxurious hotel has all the features you would expect in a National Trust manor house, from striking paintings to stunning antiques.

Middlethorpe Hall Hotel also boasts a relaxing spa, gym, pool, and sauna. As well as 20 acres of lovely gardens.

However, this property is in use as a hotel and access is only available for hotel guests.

So, if you want to take a peek at this National Trust property, you’re going to need to pack your bags for an indulgent weekend away!

Address: Middlethorpe Hall Hotel, Bishopthorpe Road, York, YO23 2GB

National Trust Regions in North Yorkshire

As well as the 13 buildings and natural sites owned by the National Trust in North Yorkshire, the organisation is also responsible for maintaining two of the most impressive regions within North Yorkshire: the Yorkshire coast and the Yorkshire Dales.

Yorkshire Coast

The National Trust maintain the Yorkshire Coast from Saltburn to Filey.

This area has a rich heritage which you can explore on the many clifftop walks and cycle routes.

The Yorkshire Coast is also the ideal place to delve into rock pools to discover marine life, or to go fossil hunting.

This beautiful coastal region is perfect for a seaside getaway!

Yorkshire Dales

The Yorkshire Dales are renowned for their miles of unspoiled landscapes and rolling hills.

This makes the Dales the ideal destination for outdoor enthusiasts. It is a popular location for walking, hiking, cycling and more.

However, the sleepy, slow-paced life of the Dales also makes it the ideal place to unwind and relax. It is a popular spot for a quiet getaway.

Whether you’re visiting for an action-packed adventure or a relaxing escape, any trip to the Yorkshire Dales revolves around admiring the striking natural beauty of the region.

National Trust in West Yorkshire

West Yorkshire is home to four National Trust sites.

Each of the four sites are wonderfully unique. It has a truly diverse collection of properties and landscapes!

From grand houses to remote landscapes, you really get a taste of everything when it comes to the National Trust in West Yorkshire!

Hardcastle Crags

The woodland site of Hardcastle Crags is the ideal place for a gentle woodland stroll.

With over 15 miles of footpaths in more than 400 acres of unspoiled woodland, walkers of all ages and abilities can enjoy a visit to Hardcastle Crags.

The site is especially popular in the autumn months as the leaves turn golden. It is one of the best places to see autumn colours in Yorkshire!

For the most memorable experience, make sure you climb the crags near Gibson Mill. From here, you’ll be treated to sweeping views across the valley.

You can also enter the mill and enjoy a hot drink and delicious food from the cafe.

Address: Midgehole Car Park, Midgehole Road, Hebden Bridge, HX7 7AW

Nostell near Wakefield is the largest of the National Trust houses in West Yorkshire.

This grand Palladian house almost never came to fruition after numerous financial challenges. But after 200 years, the house was finally completed and today visitors can enjoy the beautiful building.

As well as the house, Nostell is renowned for its beautiful gardens.

You can see the kitchen garden and sample the produce in the cafe or enjoy a peaceful lakeside stroll.

The grounds at Nostell are sprawling, so you could spend the full day exploring them!

Address: Nostell, Doncaster Road, Nostell, Wragby, Wakefield, WF4 1QE

East Riddlesden Hall

When compared to Nostell, the 17th-century manor house East Riddlesden Hall is cosy but no less charming!

This enchanting building has a pottered history to be unearthed as you make your way from room to room.

You’ll also discover how it was saved from demolition by two local brothers.

East Riddlesden Hall also has a carefully crafted garden which is beautiful during the spring and summer months.

A stroll through the gardens feels like stepping into the pages of ‘ The Secret Garden .’ It is quintessentially English!

Address: East Riddlesden Hall, Bradford Road, Riddlesden, Keighley, BD20 5EL

Marsden Moor

In stark contrast to Hardcastle Crags, the rugged expanse of Marsden Moor is open and exposed.

This dramatic landscape offers a diverse range of walking routes for all ability levels.

You will also be treated to some breath-taking views across the moors and neighbouring Lancashire.

Marsden Moor is a popular spot for walkers. There are no facilities throughout the moor, but the village of Marsden is just a short walk away.

The village is the ideal place to stop for a spot of lunch after a long hike!

Address: Marsden Moor Car Park, Station Road, Marsden, Huddersfield, HD7 6DH

National Trust in East Yorkshire

East Yorkshire is home to just one National Trust property. However, it is one worth seeing when you get the chance!

This impressive building is only open on select dates throughout the year, so make sure you don’t miss it!

Maister House

Maister House is a spectacular 18th Century merchant’s house. This iconic brick-built building can be found on High Street in Hull.

Although the National Trust own the house, it is in use as offices, so isn’t open year-round.

Throughout the year on select dates you can peek inside the entrance and hallway to get a small glimpse of this impressive building.

Make sure you keep an eye on the National Trust website for the next date they are open to visitors.

Address: Maister House, 160 High Street, Hull, HU1 1NL

National Trust in South Yorkshire

There are two National Trust sites in South Yorkshire. Or more accurately, one and a half!

These sites are located just a 20-minute drive apart, and a visit to them both tells the story of the battle of two Wentworths!

Both branches of this family tree leave an exquisite legacy that you need to explore!

Wentworth Castle Gardens

When William Wentworth died in 1695, Thomas Wentworth expected to inherit the grand family home of Wentworth Woodhouse. However, it went to his cousin, Thomas Watson.

To outshine his relative, he bought his own elaborate home, Wentworth Castle, just six miles away.

But it was the gardens that were the real gem of this Wentworth estate. They are recognised as one of the UK’s greatest 18th century estates.

It is easy to see why on a visit.

The sprawling landscape of gardens, parklands and even a castle that isn’t quite what it seems wow any visitor who takes the time to explore them.

Wentworth Castle Gardens is a beautiful and vibrant place to visit during the spring and summer months.

Address: Wentworth Castle Gardens, Park Drive, Barnsley, S75 3EN

Wentworth Woodhouse

Wentworth Woodhouse is a stunning stately home with the longest façade of any country house in England!

The National Trust do not technically own the house. However, they are working closely with Wentworth Woodhouse Preservation Trust to guide them through the restoration process.

Because of this, National Trust members receive a discount on admission.

Significant redevelopment work is ongoing at Wentworth Woodhouse to restore this beautiful property.

Each visit you will see the house evolve as it grows into a popular must-see attraction in South Yorkshire.

Address: Wentworth Woodhouse, Wentworth, Rotherham, S62 7TQ

The sun is beginning to rise earlier day by day and blooms are beginning to appear all around us, from daffodils to snowdrops.

The 5 Best National Trusts In North Yorkshire (By Someone Who Has Visited Them All)

As a proud life member of the heritage and environmental charity, The National Trust, it is fair to say I have probably been to more of their sites than many people. In fact, most of my childhood memories were made at them: running around woodlands, battling imaginary dragons in castles and acting as lady of the manor, all across England!

Exploring National Trust properties has always been an integral and essential part of my family’s lives. But it was as an adult, when I got to explore them independently, that I formed a totally new appreciation and renewed love for them.

Around my home county of North Yorkshire , there are currently a total of 19 National Trust properties . Lucky for me, I have visited them all.

For visitors to North Yorkshire, you’d probably be pushed to visit so many. So which of these are the best National Trusts in North Yorkshire to visit that show off the ‘best of the North’?

As a local, I would personally recommend visiting these five properties. With a mixture of historic buildings and outdoor areas of interest, they will give you a well-rounded insight into North Yorkshire’s very special National Trust offerings.

The top 5 best National Trusts in North Yorkshire:

Brimham rocks.

Location: Brimham Moor, Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Beauty 

Entry:  free general public admission. Car parking charges apply for non-members

Time required: Ideally all day 

Brimham Rocks is an area of incredible geological rock formations. Eroded over time by water, glaciation and wind, many of the remaining rocks are intricately balanced or carved into fascinating shapes.

Some of the formations have names such as ‘The Dancing Bear’, ‘The Camel’, ‘Idol Rock’ and ‘The Turtle’, though realistically, a bit of imagination and the right angle is required to interpret them.

Brimham Rocks makes an especially ideal day trip if you have children, or like me, if you haven’t quite got the hang of this ‘adulting’ thing yet. The best thing about this place is that you can climb and explore the rocks as much as you wish so there really is endless fun. You can honestly spend hours here investigating every little nook and cranny.

If it’s something that interests you, there is also the opportunity to join various outdoor classes such as rock climbing, abseiling, bouldering (and ‘weasiling’ for the little ones). 

If you come to Brimham Rocks, make sure you bring a picnic and allocate a full day to thoroughly explore this free natural playground.

Treasurer’s House

Location: Minster Yard, York

Entry : members are free. General adult admission £8.70. Children £4.35

Time required: 1-2 hours

The Treasurer’s House is one of my favourite indoor National Trusts for so many reasons!

Firstly, it has to be because it is located within my favourite city in England – York. York is a medieval city which was built by the Romans in 71AD and later captured by the Vikings in 866AD.

I can’t begin to describe the huge amounts of history in York. However, what I love the most about it is that if you meander down certain alleyways, you don’t feel like you’re in the 21st century at all.

Just like many parts of the historic city, the Treasurer’s House has been preserved exactly how it was left to the National Trust and is one small page in York’s fascinating catalogue of history.

Oh – and it’s literally metres away from York Minster too. Can you imagine this as the view from your back garden? (well actually yes I can – it’s partly why I love coming here!)

Inside, the property is full of contradictions; each room is designed completely differently to the next. The Grand Hall is designed in the style of a medieval banqueting hall featuring bare stone walls, heavy wooden features and open beams, tiled flooring and period furniture.

Then, walk five steps into the lounge, and you have a completely different interior: delicate and ornate Georgian furniture with fussy gold detailing, shining mirrors and brightly painted turquoise wall panels.

But it’s the last owner of Treasurer’s House, Frank Green, who really brings character to the place – he sounds like he was a very amusing man.

Frank Green was determined to not let the tax man get a penny of his money when he died. As he grew older and his health deteriorated, he gave away every bit of his family wealth, dying with only a few pounds to his name. 

He also left the property to the National Trust (as he never married or had children) which was to ensure the government didn’t get a hold of it. Good on him for succeeding in his mission I guess!

If you look very closely, each room has various tacks nailed into the wooden floors. This was Mr Green’s very specific mapping of where each piece of furniture should go (and stay). He actually even threatened the National Trust to come back and haunt them as a ghost if his instructions were not followed!

The Treasurer’s House makes a great addition to a trip to York and can easily be viewed in an hour or two.

Fountains Abbey

Location: Aldfield, Ripon

Entry:  members are free. General adult admission £16.00. Children £8.00

Time required:  2-3 hours

Fountains Abbey  is the largest and best preserved Cistercian Monastery ruin in the whole of England. Founded in 1132, it operated for 407 years. It was actually one of the richest in England before the dissolution of Catholic monasteries by Henry VIII.

Fountains Abbey is a place I absolutely recommend to any visitor to Yorkshire. It’s a proud part of Northern England’s history.

There’s something haunting about the dramatic stone arches and architectural splendour of these ruins. It always reminds me of what I imagine Hogwarts to be like. If you’re a Harry Potter fan, then I’m sure you’ll understand what I mean (especially in the last book, The Deathly Hallows, when Hogwarts gets partially destroyed!)

Fountain’s Abbey is often extremely quiet and peaceful, so you feel like you have the whole place to yourself. It’s surrounded by beautiful green fields and woodland. I can see why this tranquil part of Yorkshire was chosen to build a monastery.

Mount Grace Priory

Location: East Harlsey, North Yorkshire Moors National Park

Entry: members are free. General adult admission £9.00. Children £5.40. Car parking charges apply for all visitors. This is a joint National Trust and English Heritage property

Time required: 1-3 hours

A 10 minute drive from my family home is Mount Grace Priory, the best preserved and most accessible medieval Carthusian house in England. Lucky me!

Mount Grace Priory is tucked away in the Cleveland Hills on the edge of dense woodland and surrounded by picturesque stone villages. However it’s reached easily from the main road, the A19.

Like Fountains Abbey, the priory is mainly ruins now but there are some fantastic renovated parts that have been turned into museums and exhibitions.

The individual cells inhabited by the monks are one such area, reflecting the isolation and silence they embraced daily. The monks only congregated in the chapel at night for bible reading, on feast days and services on Sundays. It’s hard to imagine in this day and age what life as a hermit monk would have been like.

The 13th century manor house and garden is also open for viewing. Inside you will find a few exhibitions and two craft rooms.

In the spring, daffodils and blossoms adorn the ruins, and a bit earlier, around January/February, there are beautiful dainty snowdrops. 

The garden has recently been redesigned by a well-known TV presenter gardener. You can get up close to admire it, or sit in the new Orchard Cafe with a coffee looking at the beautiful stone walls and woodland garden from afar. 

Roseberry Topping

Location: Great Ayton, near Middlesbrough

Entry: free to the general public. Car parking charges apply

Time required: 1 – 1.5 hours

Roseberry Topping is a distinctive cone-shaped hill with a slight cliff to one side, sat somewhat prominently within the open farmland of Teesside. It is a brisk 20-30 minute hike to the top, affording panoramic, 360 degree views across the minuscule-looking villages and even out towards the north eastern coastline.

It’s a walk that is suitable for the averagely fit person but there is a steep, borderline scramble for the last two minutes to reach the top. Otherwise, the rest of the climb is pretty gentle.

In April/May, the woodland at the beginning of the summit becomes blanketed in pretty carpets of bluebells. If you’re lucky, you may also see endless bright yellow fields of flowering rapeseed (canola) at the same time.

Bonus: Nunnington Hall

If you have time, or would prefer another indoor activity, I would definitely recommend a visit to Nunnington Hall in lieu of Roseberry Topping. 

Nestled on the quiet banks of the river Rye, Nunnington Hall is a charming Yorkshire manor house complete with period features, events all year around, art and photography exhibitions, English country walled gardens and wild meadows.

I hope this list has been a useful and interesting insight into (six) of the best National Trusts in North Yorkshire!

10 of the best places to visit near Leeds

Alexandra Currant

Taking time to explore your surroundings can be a great way to take care of your mental health after a stressful semester. If you’re looking for ways to spend the summer without going too far from the city then this list is for you. We’ve put together a list of 10 great places near Leeds that are just perfect to visit! So grab your shoes and bag and get going to one of these fab places.

Roundhay Park

Our first location is technically in Leeds being a half an hour bus trip from the centre of the city. A beautiful park containing two lakes, a café, a mansion, Tropical World, a medieval-style ruin, and a pub make a trip to Roundhay a super-easy way to get out of the city for a busy day without having to travel too far. The park itself is also full of benches and shaded areas which are lovely for a picnic or long sit down amongst the greenery.

Voted “the happiest place to live” in Britain for three years in a row, Harrogate is a beautiful place known for its springs, walks, and rich history. Walk through the immaculately landscaped town centre full of architecture dating back to the 17th century and a wide range of shops from bakeries to clothing boutiques.

Garden Harlow Carr

As one of five RHS gardens across the country, Garden Harlow Carr contains stunning gardens well worth a trip. They focus on supporting local wildlife but they also offer classes and workshops for the budding gardener or crafter so be sure to check these in advance. Between the beautiful sights and interesting classes, we encourage you to have a break and a cake in the tea rooms on the site. Also, as part of their focus to reduce emissions, if you visit the RHS Garden Harlow Carr without using a car you can get an admission discount !

York Castle Musem

If you think modernity is getting old, take a trip to the York Castle Museum to sate your hankering for the historical. A perfect location to entertain visiting family and friends by going through their ten exhibitions or attend one of their workshops. Wander through Kirkgate as it would have been in the 1870s complete with shops and knowledgeable historians dressed to impress.

Tropical Butterfly House

A Wildlife Conservation Park just outside of Sheffield is full of birds, butterflies, and animals from all over the world. Learn about the importance of wildlife conservation by feeding birds and listening to talks by professionals. And at the end of your trip rest assured that your admission fees go toward preserving native species across the country.

Dubbed “The Outdoor City”, Sheffield is a city of green spaces and busy places just waiting for visitors. There is no shortage of shops, restaurants, and events to check out. And to top it all off it’s only an hour by train from Leeds city centre. Thus making this a great location for anyone with an open day and not much of a plan.

On the other hand, if you want to some city exploring York is probably a good option. Because this one is a bit vaguer here are some recommendations of places to go on your trip. Go to any of the museums and attractions throughout the city including; the Yorkshire Museum , Viking Museum, or the York Air Museum . A great spot for a break is The Cat’s Whiskers cat cafe , a fantastic rest-stop made comfier with rescue cats. And as the evening comes, book a ghost walk through the city and learn about the city’s spooky history. All in all, York is a city full of activities, sights, and shops only a half-hour train journey from the centre of Leeds.

Castle Howard

If the noise and crowds of the city aren’t your thing, then take a hike to Castle Howard . This absolutely stunning 18th-century castle sits in heart of lush green Yorkshire surrounded by its well-kept gardens. Castle Howard holds tours, lectures, and workshops all about the history of the grounds or their exhibits. If you think the house looks familiar, you’re probably right! The castle has been the backdrop to multiple period drama shows and films including the hit show Bridgerton. And if you’re a Bridgerton fan head to their exhibit of costumes and behind-the-scenes info about the show.

Yorkshire Sculpture Park

Walking through the Yorkshire Sculpture Park is the perfect combination of art gallery and hike. The park has seven exhibitions at the moment as well as permanent sculptures by well-known artists including Damien Hirst and on important topics like sexuality. If just looking at art isn’t enough, the park also holds events you can participate in!

Yorkshire Dales

The list wouldn’t be complete without the Dales. Full of breathtaking views and scenic places to relax, the Yorkshire Dales truly has it all. They also hold various events and organised walks across the area if you want something more structured.
