Great Ayton was named one of the UK’s best places to live in the 2022 Sunday Times’ annual checklist of enviable towns and villages to move…
There’s a landmark mini mountain on the doorstep, pies and ice creams of legend, not to mention a very famous son.
You only have to set foot in the place to realise the appeal. Roseberry Topping, also known as ’the mini Matterhorn’ is always a backdrop, but more of that later. The way to celebrate this famous son might be at another institution, Suggit’s traditional sweet shop where the ice creams are highly rated. As are award-winning Petch’s pies.Great Ayton has a railway station that will take you to Whitby for a day out if you’re holidaying in the area - with some smashing North Yorkshire villages on the route too. The station means the village is a popular commuter spot for those working on Teesside.
As a 'village', Great Ayton punches above its weight as the sort of place you can while away the hours with an easy stroll or a dog walk if you’re not doing the big hill - as you follow the meandering river though the town. The wealth of independent businesses is what wowed the Sunday Times judges when they were casting their votes and this has feel of a very thriving ‘on the up’ kind of place.
