Goathland

While we were away in the UK, we got a chance to visit Goathland aka “the Heartbeat village” or “Land of the Roaming Sheep”. Strangely, this was where we were going to have the wedding reception but that didn’t work out.

We headed out with Anna and Ian in the afternoon, Goathland is about 45 minutes from Whitby and luckily the rain held off that day.

As I mentioned, Goathland is where they do some of the filming for the Heartbeat TV show (they also film in Whitby too). I also think it’s a funny village because sheep wander about everywhere.

We made our way around the village, bumped into Tasha’s family, had a bit of lunch then went looking for Beck Hole. It was a long walk and we skipped Beck Hole but found a lovely river with a rocky bank to try to traverse. There were some slippery rocks and awkward hops but we all made it along safely.

Again, here are the photos from our little country adventure.

  2. We quite like the show too, although we rarely catch it what with having no TV.
