LATEST FROM THE WHITE SHIRE

The Motorist in Sherburn in Elmet is an automotive venue that brings together cars, motorcycles, food, coffee and regular motoring events in one place. Based between Leeds and York, it has become a meeting point for car and bike enthusiasts, but you don't need to be attending an event or arriving in something exotic to visit. The Driver’s Lounge is open to visitors looking for food or coffee, while the wider site hosts a changing programme of automotive meets and events thro

Horncastle Farm in Havercroft is much more than a working farm. It is developing into a distinctive Yorkshire place to visit, with The Tatie Shed restaurant, farm experiences, a large outdoor BBQ area, barns used for bands and live entertainment, seasonal activities and farm produce.

We discovered Cullingworth Mills while walking our Harden Circular Walk and couldn't resist going inside. This historic West Yorkshire mill is now home to more than 100 antiques, vintage and independent dealers, with The Mill Cullingworth café providing the perfect place for a coffee afterwards. With free parking, fascinating industrial history and Goit Stock Waterfall nearby, it's a lovely Yorkshire discovery.

Looking for somewhere different to eat near Selby? Digby’s Café at Sherburn Airfield combines homemade food, coffee, outdoor seating, a children's play area and fantastic views across the airfield. We visited with our grandson Ally, who loved watching the aircraft and was lucky enough to see a helicopter take off close by. It’s a great stop for families, aircraft enthusiasts or anyone looking for a café with a difference.
