Situated high on a hillside overlooking the spectacular Yorkshire Wolds, The Robert Fuller Gallery is ideally located for those who want to combine their visit with a walk.

From the Yorkshire Wolds Way, a 79-mile national trail that passes close to the gallery, to shorter circular walks, taking in delights such as an earth sculpture inspired by the ice age origins of this region and named 'Waves & Time', you're spoilt for choice when it comes to exploring this breathtakingly beautiful area.

The nearby village of Thixendale offers a welcoming focal point for your day out. Situated at the intersection of six dales, this is one of the most isolated villages in the country, but also one of the most charming. With a cosy pub, The Cross Keys, offering rooms and hearty meals for hungry walkers, and a village hall which opens on Sundays for tea and homemade cakes, this picture-perfect village is also home to a friendly community. Keen to welcome walkers, some residents even open their doors to visitors and offer cookies on rainy days!
