<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Our 2019 Visitor Guide is now available and is being distributed throughout the County and across the world. Demand is high and feedback has, so far, been amazing, so thank you for all the kind words!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">As with last year, as well as requests from locations across Great Britain we have had healthy interest from abroad too, which is fantastic when it comes to promoting out beautiful County.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Chris has been working on the distribution today, visiting locations in Knaresborough (there is a feature in the brochure on Knaresborough Castle) and Harrogate. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">This picture shows him hard at work, out in the fresh air, in a beautiful location in glorious North Yorkshire sunshine - it's a tough job, but someone's got to do it!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Copies will be available from early January and distribution will then begin in earnest (whoever he is).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Once again the Visitor Guide has been compiled and produced by our web & social media partners, Blue Box Support. Once again it shows that it is a cut above other tourism guides as it's jam-packed with features and articles to really give both visitors and prospective visitors alike something to really get their teeth in to!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Many thanks to all of those who showed faith in our publication and placed adverts - the TANY Visitor Guide is independent of TANY membership fees, so it has to be entirely self-funding. Without you paying for advertising space we wouldn't have a magazine, it's as simple as that.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">You are not only showing faith in our magazine - you are also showing your faith in North Yorkshire as a world famous tourist destination, that can hold its own with the rest of them!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Here's to 2019 being a very special one for our great County!</span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Tuesday 25th July 2017 saw the 151st Ryedale Show, and a tremendous success it was, attended by over 15,000 people on its single day.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The weather behaved and not even an unfortunate disagreement between a car & a motorbike outside the main entrance early on could get in the way!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">After-show publicity has been good, with a fantastic article in the Yorkshire Post by Ben Barnett, which you can read here: </span><a href="http://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/ryedale-show-is-a-hit-in-its-151st-year-1-8669440" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><i>Yorkshire Post</i></span></a><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">All the event categories were fully subscribed, as demand was so high, as described in the YP piece;</span><br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrm41bfX-c_SzRB-UE7td6VGMq664cSqYPqIhlaB0D84uhHPOmE7IYH2c0OhaANyyBQq_EcoxjsSJzGQjLQ5Mem9t9PZ82PDNGHpopteHMHfqB5OiOluYt7unH2GtmO7bQNccXTC5HSu4/s1600/RSh003.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></a><span style="color: #990000; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><i>"Christine Thompson, the show’s secretary, said: “It’s got to the point with livestock entries that we have got as many as we can take. We are happy being at full capacity and we are very fortunate to be with cattle, trade stands and sheep - to make the show any bigger would dilute it. Taking any further steps would be a big job. All the volunteers (we have about 100 of them) give as much as they can out of the goodness of their hearts and we can’t ask any more of them and the show all relies on the generosity of the Shaw family who lend us the land."</i></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The local Gazette & Herald has also been a great supporter of the event, following up on a couple of pre-event articles with an excellent post-event piece (to which we have submitted some pictures) here: </span><a href="http://www.gazetteherald.co.uk/news/15430991.48_PICTURES___VIDEO__15_000_flock_to_Ryedale_Show/" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><i>Gazette & Herald</i></span></a><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Planning will start around October for next year's event, which shows the sheer amount of hard work & effort that organiser Christine & her team put in, to produce such a well organised event.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Whilst the Great Yorkshire Show is arguably one of the most well-known events on the agricultural calendar, it is by no means the only one in our beautiful county. You can see a list on page 8 of our current <b>Visitor Guide</b> which is stocked by most good Tourist Information Centres, downloadable via PDF from our website or viewed on the electronic version here: </span><a href="http://visityorkshire.com/Brochure2017/index.html" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Visit Yorkshire: 2017 Guide</span></a><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Tuesday 25th July sees the 151st Ryedale Show, held in Welburn Park, Kirkbymoorside, North Yorkshire.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The Ryedale Show was established in 1855 and is a traditional Agricultural Show renowned for its very high standard of entries in all Sections and Trade Stands that attend in ever growing numbers each year. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The Show is run with both the farming community and townspeople's interests in mind and there are attractions for everyone of all ages.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The show offers great value for money, with a full and varied day of entertainment with some wonderful retail therapy as well.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Situated within a natural amphitheatre, there are eight rings running throughout the day, exhibiting prime cattle, horses, sheep, pigs and goats. There are also sections for fur & feather, produce, WI/YCA and children’s classes together with sheep dog trials and a dog show. Prize money in excess of £20,000 is up for grabs, not to mention some fabulous trophies.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">In the region of 200 quality trade stands attend each year, with many having exhibited each year for at least 10 years. They openly say that it is like a "family meeting" and this makes the atmosphere unique, warm and very friendly.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We love the new look already and we are sure it will carry on the work the original (also by Ian) started, promoting our members in particular and North Yorkshire in general to the rest of the UK and the world.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">TANY works hard to ensure North Yorkshire is seen as one of, if not the, best tourist destination in the UK. We feel the new website, along with all our integrated social media on all the major platforms, will keep us in the forefront!</span><br />

We are incredibly pleased to report that it's looking like our latest Visitor Guide, produced by our IT Partners Blue Box Support, is going to be our most successful Guide yet!<br />
<br />
Copies have been flying off the shelves of Tourist Information Centres, with more being distributed as we write this Blog post.<br />
<br />
It may seem early, but Blue Box will begin compiling the 2018 Guide in early August, so make a note to keep an eye out for the notices that will be published and get your adverts in.<br />
<br />
This year's Guide was brilliantly refreshing and focussed on far more of our amazing and beautiful County than ever before and Blue Box assure us that this is a trend that will continue. Not just with the Guide but with our website, social media and membership as well.<br />
<br />
Great links have been forged with such wonderful locations as Ingleton, which features in the Guide, and many pages were given over to sharing information about North Yorkshire's beautiful Stately Homes & Gardens, Embsay & Bolton Steam Railway and Dalby Forest.<br />
<br />
You can download a PDF copy here: <a href="http://visityorkshire.com/Brochure2017/Brochure2017.pdf" target="_blank">TANY 2017 Visitor Guide</a><br />
<br />
You can also view the <a href="http://visityorkshire.com/Brochure2017/" target="_blank">interactive online version</a> with live links.<br />
<br />
If you are an accommodation provider or if you operate a visitor attraction, café, tea room, pub, restaurant or something completely different you could do a lot worse than take on membership of TANY - at only £63 for the year it's a steal!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11565552021527707024noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4426442655858300958.post-51875219985811096572017-02-11T11:43:00.001+00:002017-02-11T11:43:08.398+00:00North Yorkshire Visitor Guide for 2017<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Our latest Visitor Guide is in distribution to numerous Tourist Information Centres, Tourist Attractions, places of interest and some shops. We can confirm that demand has been high, with a significant increase in interest on previous years.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Our latest Guide is something of quality, with much useful information. We have a multitude of accommodation providers advertising within our pages from B&B providers, to self-catering, hotels as well as holiday parks with caravan and camping facilities.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The Guide is also jam-packed full of features, including a look at the wonderful village of Ingleton and a detailed look at the amazing Embsay & Bolton Abbey Steam Railway.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Via our website you can also access a copy of the Guide in PDF format (approximately 6Mb in size) but we also offer an interactive, page-turning online version too, with clickable links (approx. 9.75Mb).</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You can access the PDF version by </span><a href="http://visityorkshire.com/Brochure2017/Brochure2017.pdf" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">clicking here</span></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">.</span><br />

<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;">
<strong><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Organisers have announced that HRH the Duchess of Kent will be attending this year's Show.</span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;">
<strong><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The Ryedale Show was established in 1855 and is a traditional Agricultural Show renowned for its very high standard of entries in all Sections and Trade Stands that attend in ever growing numbers each year.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The Show is run with both the farming community and townspeople's interests in mind and there are attractions for everyone of all ages.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The show offers great value for money, with a full and varied day of entertainment with some wonderful retail therapy as well.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Situated within a natural amphitheatre, there are eight rings running throughout the day, exhibiting prime cattle, horses, sheep, pigs and goats. There are also sections for fur & feather, produce, WI/YCA and children’s classes together with sheep dog trials and a dog show. Prize money in excess of £20,000 is up for grabs, not to mention some fabulous trophies.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In the region of 200 quality trade stands attend each year, with many having exhibited each year for at least 10 years. They openly say that it is like a "family meeting" and this makes the atmosphere unique, warm and very friendly.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The Ryedale Show is extremely grateful to all the support it receives from subscriptions, donations, visitors and all the exhibitors and helpers who, when put together, make a wonderful day out for all the family.</span></div>

and June is possibly the best time to see this glorious corner of
England at its very best. There are festivals and feasts, events and
exhibitions; nature is vibrant and the summer weather is taking hold.
It’s time for a visit.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Still need convincing? Here are 10 reasons why you should visit North Yorkshire this summer:</span><br />
<ol>
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Abbeys and Castles:</b>
North Yorkshire is over-blessed with magnificent castles, abbeys and
stately homes. Highlights close to our Keldy and Cropton locations
include Rievaulx Abbey, Castle Howard, Byland Abbey, Whitby Abbey,
Helmsley Castle, and, right on our doorstep, Pickering Castle.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /> </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Chocolate:</b> Some towns were built on steel, others on coal. York was built on chocolate. The story of <a href="https://www.yorkschocolatestory.com/event/chocolate-and-the-people-of-york/">Chocolate and the people of York</a>
is told in an exhibition which runs throughout June at York’s Chocolate
Story, possibly one of the best ideas for a museum, ever!</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /> </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Cliff-side Birdwatching:</b> Head for <a href="http://www.rspb.org.uk/discoverandenjoynature/seenature/reserves/guide/b/bemptoncliffs/index.aspx">RSPB Bempton Cliffs</a>
near Bridlington where, from April to August, the chalk cliff tops –
the highest in Britain, offer the astonishing sight of more than a
quarter of a million puffins, gannets and guillemots.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /> </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Festivals:</b> What’s your passion? Whatever it is, there is sure to be a June festival in North Yorkshire for it. 60s music? <a href="http://www.whitbypavilion.co.uk/events/Whitby-60s-Festival-June-2016">Whitby 60s</a> from 10-12th June. Food? <a href="https://www.facebook.com/FileyFoodDrinkFestival">Filey Food and Drink Festival</a> is on 11th and 12th June. Flowers? The <a href="http://www.castlehoward.co.uk/DB/whats-on-view/flower-festival-2">Castle Howard Flower Festival</a> is 23-26th June. Angling? Back to Whitby for the <a href="http://www.wcsa.co.uk/wcsa-angling-festivals-2016/">Whitby Summer Angling Festival</a> starting on the 25th June, with a £5,000 prize for the heaviest fish!</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /> </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Fish:</b> On 18th June, <a href="http://www.northyorkmoors.org.uk/visiting/whats-on/fish-fillet-feast">Fish. Fillet. Feast.</a>
is a celebration of the Yorkshire coastline’s fishing heritage from
Saltburn down to Robin Hoods Bay. Sample the bounty of the sea, watch
fishermen at work and enjoy an afternoon of maritime entertainment.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /> </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Forest Live:</b> Live music beneath the trees; what could be more atmospheric? As part of the Forestry Commission’s <a href="http://www.forestry.gov.uk/forestry/INFD-7NPLBE">Forest Live</a>
series of concerts you can see Guy Garvey, John Newman and Kaiser
Chiefs in the picturesque setting of Dalby Forest, from 24th to 26th
June.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /> </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Railways:</b> Dig out your flares for the NYM Railway <a href="http://www.nymr.co.uk/special-events/awesome-seventies/">Awesome Seventies and Heritage Diesel Gala</a>
from 17th-19th June, with highlights at stations along the way
including 70s tribute band the Glamned at Levisham, 70s vehicles at
Goathland and a 70s pop-up museum at Pickering.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /> </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>The North York Moors National Park:</b>
Where to start? Moorland and dales, rivers and coastline, forests and
meadows. The June weather is forgiving and the tea rooms are open and
mercifully quiet before the summer seasons takes off in earnest.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /> </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Waterfalls:</b>
The 10 waterfalls of the North York Moors National Park are not as
well-known as those in the Dales but we think that makes them that bit
more special. <a href="http://www.walkingenglishman.com/northyorkmoorswaterfalls.htm">The Walking Englishman</a> suggests a spectacular 3 waterfall walk in Goathland, taking in Mallyan Spout, Nelly Ayre Foss and Thomason Foss.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /> </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Forest Freedom:</b>
Time for a rest. Stay in a woodland cabin at Cropton or Keldy and take
in the tranquillity of the forest. Enjoy the sounds of nature around
you as you sink into your relaxing outdoor hot tub and pat yourself on
the back for discovering North Yorkshire in June.</span></li>

<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">TANY
works hard with members, organisations and both local and central
government to promote and sustain the tourism industry in North
Yorkshire.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We are active on social media, with Google Plus, Twitter, YouTube and Facebook to name but four, as well as our website, <a href="http://www.visityorkshire.com/">www.visityorkshire.com</a>.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">North
Yorkshire is an amazing place and a wonderful part of the country to
visit. We are the largest of Yorkshire's four counties and without doubt
the
most beautiful! We are the least industrialised, well known for our
wealth of cathedrals, abbeys, churches and stately homes. Huge open
areas are a feature with the Dales and the Moors. Our stunning coastline
ensured we have a rich maritime history too.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Are you looking for a more "urban" experience? As well as York itself (most
visited English city outside of London) you can visit seaside resorts
such as Whitby, Robin Hood's Bay, Staithes and Scarborough to name but a
few. Why not try the sophisticated spa town of Harrogate? Or market
towns such as Thirsk, Richmond, Pickering (home of the North York Moors
Railway), Ripon or Helmsley.</span><br />
