Wykeham Village Market

The best farmers' market on the eastern side of the National Park is held every Friday morning in the large car park of the Downe Arms hotel, on the A170 around 8 miles from Pickering. There's usually a decent turn-out of stallholders whatever the weather, from local farmers and bakers to chocolatiers and cheese-makers. You can park right at the site, and there are meals and drinks either at the hotel and its public bar or at the arty tea-rooms just a hundred yards away down the main road, past the village primary school.
