A short drive leads to Whitby, where you can climb the 199 Steps, explore the atmospheric abbey ruins, stroll the harbour, or visit its independent shops and fishmongers. Further along the coast, Robin Hood's Bay promises winding alleyways, sea‑glass hunting, and clifftop paths with sweeping sea views. Inland, Goathland offers moorland scenery and its well‑known heritage railway station, perfect for scenic journeys across wide horizons. Whatever your plans, Little Acorn offers an inviting base for exploring the North York Moors National Park.Briggswath is a quiet neighbourhood in a sought-after part of the village of Sleights, resting on the north side of the River Esk, and is named after one of the medieval bridges. The village used to be part of the parish of Aislaby, which sits above it on the edge of the moors, but is now part of the parish of Eskdaleside-cum-Ugglebarnby, forming a small triangle on the north side of the Esk. The village contains a Wesleyan chapel built in 1820. A wide range of shops, primary schools (at both Sleights and Ruswarp), a church and doctor's surgery make up the charming location. Briggswath lies approximately two miles from Whitby and 17 miles from the market town of Pickering, with plenty more amenities and attractions to explore.
