Embracing Mindful Month in the North York Moors
As summer fades into autumn, the North York Moors National Park has been throughout September inviting everyone to take a step back and experience “Mindful Month,” a time dedicated to slowing down and appreciating the beauty that surrounds us. With cooler weather and the landscape transitioning into hues of gold, red, and brown, it’s a perfect time to reconnect with nature and find moments of peace and contemplation.
Autumn brings a unique charm to the North York Moors, offering countless opportunities to immerse yourself in the great outdoors. Whether you’re standing still by the coast, watching the waves crash along the shoreline, walking through the woodlands as leaves crunch underfoot, or taking in the expansive views across the heather-clad moors, there’s no shortage of places to pause, reflect, and enjoy the changing season. In this slower pace of autumn, you’ll find space to breathe deeply and truly appreciate the natural world around you.
Cliff House Holiday Cottages, located on the edge of the North York Moors National Park, offers an ideal retreat for those looking to engage in a mindful experience. Our grounds provide a tranquil setting to start your journey into mindfulness. Spend time by our pond, listening to the gentle trickling of the stream and watch our fish rise to the surface and occasionally jump, or sit quietly in our garden, where you can observe our free-ranging chickens as they forage and explore. Over the years guests have found places in our grounds to practice their daily yoga rituals to help them start the day. These simple pleasures can be grounding and help you reconnect with the present moment.
Whether you choose to venture out to explore the beauty of the National Park or prefer to stay within our peaceful grounds, Cliff House Holiday Cottages provides the perfect base for your autumnal escape. Take this time to slow down, enjoy the cooler air, and let the natural surroundings help you reset and recharge. As the leaves fall and the landscape transforms, embrace the moment and experience the mindful calm that the North York Moors and Cliff House have to offer.
