Beck Hole is a tiny, picturesque hamlet nestled in a steep wooded valley within the North York Moors National Park in North Yorkshire, England. Renowned for its tranquil atmosphere, it is famous for the Birch Hall Inn (purportedly one of the smallest pubs in Britain) and its proximity to the beautiful Thomason Foss waterfall.

We stayed in Ivy Cottage, a beautifully restored and modernised cottage that sits right on the edge of the NYMRL nad well within walking distance of the pub!

It's pretty much isolated in its immediate vacinity and has beautiful sweeping views of the countryside and moorland beyond.

Waterfall Walks: Take the 2.8-mile Mallyan Spout and Goathland Walk, which passes scenic woodlands, West Beck, and the hidden Thomason Foss.Railway

History: Explore the remnants of the historic 19th-century Beckhole Incline, an engineering feat formerly used to haul carriages up steep slopes before the current North Yorkshire Moors Railway alignment was established.

Not much in the way of amenities locally so best take a comfort break before you go!

Cwm-yr-Eglwys, or "Valley of the Church," is a stunning, secluded bay nestled on the northern coast of the Pembrokeshire Peninsula. Its sheltered, crystalline waters and small, sand-and-shingle beach are surrounded by lush coastal greenery and dramatic cliffs that define this rugged stretch of Welsh coastline.

Dominating the landscape are the evocative ruins of St. Brynach’s Church, standing as a silent sentinel against the backdrop of the bay. Once a medieval parish church, its history is deeply intertwined with the restless power of the sea. For centuries, the building served its local community but it eventually met its match in the violent storms of the mid-19th century.

The most devastating blow came during the "Great Charter Storm" of October 1859—the same tempest that infamously wrecked the Royal Charter off the coast of Anglesey. The ferocious seas at Cwm-yr-Eglwys breached the church walls, flooded the nave, and irreparably damaged the structure. Following the disaster, the church was eventually declared unsafe and largely demolished, leaving only the western gable standing as a haunting landmark.

Standing in the peaceful graveyard, surrounded by ancient headstones, you can look out across the gentle, sparkling waters of the bay and find it difficult to imagine the destructive power that once surged through this very spot.

Perched high above the Eastern Cleddau river in Pembrokeshire, Wales, the striking ruins of Llawhaden Castle offer a fascinating glimpse into medieval history. Unlike typical military strongholds built by marching barons, Llawhaden was established as a fortified palace by the powerful Bishops of St Davids.

First founded as an earthwork castle in the early 12th century, it was later transformed into a grand, luxurious stone residence by Bishop Adam de Houghton between 1362 and 1389.

The bird’s-eye view looking directly down onto the castle reveals its rounded, polygonal layout, the open central courtyard, and the surrounding green moat and earthworks that originally protected the bishop's estate.

The elevated, sweeping shot showcasing the castle gatehouse and its dramatic backdrop frames the stone ruins against the lush, rolling hills of the Welsh countryside. It highlights how the site commanded views over the surrounding landscape while a closer, eye-level drone perspective focuses on the imposing, twin-towered gatehouse.

Today, Llawhaden Castle stands as a peaceful, managed ruin under the care of Cadw

Spiders Castle Dyke (also known as Brook Stream) is near Blackwall Road. It's easily missed because it can only be accessed via a footpath. The stream sometimes looks bright orange due to iron deposits.

The place is wide open, with hills in the background. Making it ideal for landscape sunset shots

Cowden Beach on the East Yorkshire coast is one of the fastest-eroding shorelines in Europe, receding at an average rate of 2.5 to 5 metres per year. This rapid retreat of the soft boulder-clay cliffs exposes hundreds of thousands of live unexploded bombs and bullets from the former RAF Cowden bombing range

Parking on Eelmere Road then walk upto the cliff edge or take a left or right on the cliff paths (on foot, no vehicle access)

Access to the beach is not easy, but there are several very steep paths that have been worn by the fisherman who use the beach.

A restored Grade 2 listed building built in 1794 by Ralph Slater. Originally a corn mill then repurposed as a cafe in the 1930’s. Two female prospective buyers died whilst inspecting it in 1930 when the fantail staging collapsed whilst they were stood on it. English Heritage have called it "an exceptionally complete example of a tower windmill in a national context". (Wikipedia}.

Ullapool is inside the Highlands TFR, so check whether it is active - on Sundays it is not, so we were able to fly.

MV Loch Seaforth was just about to dock, so I just had to send the AIR3 up and try to capture it - video to follow when we get home and can edit the footage...

Lots of scope for filming, the town itself, the harbour and boats, plus the amazing views both to the Summerisles and inland along Loch Broom...
