Amotherby

Amotherby is a village in the Ryedale district of North Yorkshire, in England. The village, and the surrounding Rydale district, is situated in the catchment area of the River Rye — a tributary of the River Derwent, in the historic East Riding of Yorkshire.

This region is a very attractive patchwork of rivers, moors and ancient rural villages, benefiting from the more urban districts of Malton, Pickering, and Helmsley with its substantial medieval castle; making Amotherby and its neighbours a very pleasant visiting place for walkers and fishing enthusiasts, as well for that traditional English family holiday. The village and the wider area offer a number of fun and educational tourist attractions, including: Flamingo Land Theme Park & Zoo, Malton Museum, and Eden Camp — all of which are in neighbouring Malton — the Scampston Hall & Walled Gardens, Castle Howard, Wharram Percy Medieval Deserted Village, and the Kirkham Priory are also within close proximity to the village.
