Those staying in a Yorkshire cottage this weekend can find out all about the heather moorland of the North York Moors.
Visitors are invited to join the National Park Authority for talks, displays and walking events to celebrate the rare habitat.
On August 20th, nature lovers can see birds of prey and learn about bee keeping, mountain rescue and some of the rare species that live on the moors.
There will also be plenty of events to keep the children entertained, such as a birds of prey trail and a craft session, while guided walks will be held over the weekend.
Sally Ann Smith, events and exhibitions coordinator at the North York Moors National Park Authority, said: "At this time of year, the moorland in the North York Moors can literally stop people in their tracks as they cast their eye over this seemingly never-ending sea of purple heather."
And those yet to book their holiday in Yorkshire might like to coincide their visit with the York Food and Drink Festival taking place on September 17th-26th.
