We hope to be another reason to come to lovely Loftus. So many just drive through. It is a walker’s paradise. 

​

Did you know there are 3 free car parks in this small town, woods with waterfalls, coastal path walks with stunning views, a little known gem of a wide sandy beach close by with The Land of Iron Museum en route and that the North York Moors National Park (which we are part of is littered with steam railway relics, quaint fishing and moorland bound villages) is Britain’s Capital of Cake? Loftus also has the award winning Willow Cake Shop located near the bookshop - crowned the champion out of 32!

If you fancy some company there are 3 guided wellbeing walks every week. Free leaflets with over a dozen walks from Loftus are available in swish new award winning library and the shop. There will be social events at ours too.

​

Betwixt Saltburn & Staithes 

We are ideally located between the gems of Staithes and Saltburn by the Sea. If further away you might even make a holiday of your visit as we can also boast Saltburn Pier and Whitby Abbey plus Redcar home to the original lemon top ice cream. As well as great fish n chip options, lots of literary connections from Whitby inspiring the tale of Dracula to Goathland train station being used as a Harry Potter filming location. We will also have self catering holiday accomodation - sometimes by room for ladies travelling solo and sometimes a bookshop holiday for a week.
