Brook

Nestled in North York Moors National Park, this charming village features red-roofed cottages, a babbling brook and a fascinating museum that ‘takes you back in time’

Tucked away in North Yorkshire, approximately seven miles from Pickering, this delightful village attracts visitors and locals seeking a peaceful existence.

Within North Yorkshire’s Ryedale district lies Hutton-le-Hole, a petite yet enchanting village that sits within the breathtaking North York Moors National Park. It offers the perfect quintessentially English village retreat, complete with grazing sheep, crimson-topped cottages and a gentle stream meandering through its lanes.

A key draw for the area, enabling guests to explore the village’s past, is the Ryedale Folk Museum, which displays regional traditions. The facility comprises various structures designed to educate about life across different periods – from a blacksmith’s workshop to a Victorian classroom.

One TripAdvisor reviewer said: “This was my third visit, and each time I see something new because there is just so much to see. It’s not the sort of museum with loads of information boards to read; it’s buildings and artefacts. You see what a great hall or roundhouse was actually like.”

Another added: “Our first visit here, and we were not disappointed. We loved exploring all the different areas, and it was really interesting to learn about the history, essentially travelling back in time.”

The village boasts a pub, a tearoom and a collection of charming shops flogging souvenirs, crafts and gifts, perfect for a gentle stroll around the locality before tackling a more ambitious trek. Hutton-le-Hole’s enchanting appeal has caught the attention of television and film producers, featuring in productions such as Death Comes to Pemberley, a BBC adaptation of the novel, and the outdoor adventure programme, Robson Green’s Weekend Escapes.

The peculiar name derives from the ancient English expression ‘Hoh Tun’, signifying ‘a settlement on a spur of land’ or possibly ‘high farm’. From its very name, it’s obvious just how much wilderness and pristine countryside encompasses Hutton-le-Hole, establishing it as a perfect destination for keen hikers and walkers.

Picturesque trails include a moderately demanding 15 km circular route across the moorland, requiring just over four hours to finish. Alternatively, there’s a more relaxed choice that leads you on a 6.4 km journey to Lastingham, linking the two villages for an enjoyable day of discovery.

Following a day of trekking, the classic country boozer, The Crown, provides the ideal stopping point for a comfortable evening. One recent guest said: “Excellent food served up in a very cosy country pub.”

They added: “Prices aren’t bad considering the food is top-notch. A good range of drinks are on offer, including non-alcoholic for those who drive. Well worth a visit for a Sunday lunch.”

Another visitor praised: “Hutton le Hole is a beautiful peaceful town and well worth a visit. Sheep roam freely, which adds to its charm. The Crown is the only pub, but it’s a good one. Sit outside and enjoy the village scene.”

Kelly Brook celebrated her 46th birthday on Sunday – but had seemingly forgotten about it until Jack Osbourne reminded her during a conversation on I’m A Celebrity

I’m A Celebrity star Kelly Brook was surprised to find out it was her birthday today after a date mix-up while in the Australian jungle.

The model turned 46 on Sunday but had seemingly forgotten about her special day. As celebrities gathered around the campfire for their morning meeting, Jack Osbourne was emotional as he said he had “a good cry” with Eddie Kadi when he realised Saturday marked four months since his legendary father, Ozzy Osbourne, passed away.

“Yesterday was a bit of a delicate day for me…I was doing okay, and then I realised it was the four months since my dad died,” Jack said. “Had a good cry with Eddie…but ultimately I’m happy, I’m really happy I’m here.” Campmates showed their support for Jack, as Angry Ginge told him: “Men cry too.”

The conversation then moved to a lighter topic – birthdays – as Kelly exclaimed: “Oh my god! It’s my birthday tomorrow.” However, after she revealed her birthday was on November 23, Jack was quick to point out: “It’s the 23rd today.”

The pair then went through the days together, which is when Kelly realised: “It’s my birthday.” Fellow celebrities then cheered and celebrated with her as Kelly joked: “I honestly thought it was tomorrow!

“Jack even had to figure out when my birthday was, is there nothing this guy can’t do?! How am I gonna navigate life without him!” It comes after Jack’s sister, Kelly Osbourne, accused his campmate, Kelly, of being a “bully” after she said he had pushed his way into taking over preparing the campmate’s dinner of eel.

On the ITV show earlier this week, Jack offered to help Kelly after seeing she was gagging and retching over the smell while preparing the meal.

But despite accepting, Kelly later told the camera she felt Jack had “elbowed” his way into taking over the cooking for camp. Jack’s elder sister then took to her Instagram Stories to say: “Kelly Brook… I don’t think I like you. Elbowing out of the way to get to the fish… you’re so performative, with all the gagging and the over‑dramatics. You bring out my big‑sister vibes where I want to attack you because I feel like you’re a bit of a bully.”

After Kelly’s stepdad described the accusations as “a load of rubbish”, her former housekeeper Gemma Daniels also spoke out in defence of the former model. Gemma, who worked at the star’s £1million Kent farmhouse – which she sold in 2023 – for nearly a decade, said I’m A Celeb is painting the star in a wrong way.

Speaking out on TikTok, Gemma, who described herself as “just a girl from a council estate”, said: “In the nine years that I’ve known Kelly Brook, I’ve never felt the need to stick up for her more than I do now.” She described Kelly as “a really lovely down-to-earth woman” who always treated her well.

I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! airs nightly at 9pm on ITV1, STV, ITVX & STV Player.

KATIE Price broke her silence on her long-running feud with Kelly Brook as she ripped into their mutual ex Danny Cipriani.

Katie played down their bitter spat in the noughties as she turned on Danny and took a swipe at his manhood.

Katie, 47, heaped praised on I’m A Celeb star Kelly, 45 – after they traded digs in the past.

She said she’ll be supporting the Heart Radio presenter in the jungle and claimed on the latest episode of her podcast: “I love Kelly Brook.”

She added: “The only difference between us was she came from a dance background and wouldn’t get her t**s out.”

The glamour model – previously known as Jordan – also spoke out on their connection to rugby star Danny, 38.

Katie said: “She was going out with Danny Cipriani, and I was going out with Danny Cipriani, and he was a player with a small willy, absolute k**b.”

Her podcast co-host and sister Sophie waded in with her own memory, saying: “I remember dad meeting him and thinking he was a k**b.”

Later in the pod, the sisters discussed reports that Kelly and Katie didn’t get along.

Sophie added: “Did you call her a heffer?”

Katie replied: “I can’t remember calling her a heffer.

“She’s always had a bigger figure than me. She’s a voluptuous figure – she’s stunning, beautiful.

“I am rooting for Kelly (in the jungle) from one glamour girl to another.”

Katie and Danny’s relationship happened a year after his split from Kelly in 2010.

Their romance was short-lived, ending when Katie claimed she discovered Danny in bed with another woman.

Kelly and Danny proved to be the more enduring as they dated for around two years between 2008 and 2010, though their time together was turbulent.

Both accused the other of cheating and Danny even alleged that when Kelly began dating his rugby teammate Thom Evans, she still secretly met up with him while on holiday.

Unsurprisingly, Danny became a key source of bitterness during the infamous clash between Kelly and Katie in 2013. 

At the time, Katie used her newspaper column to take a swipe at Kelly, labelling her a “heffer” and remarking on her size with backhanded compliments.

Katie wrote: “Kelly is a brilliant role model for young girls because of her curvy figure. 

“Every mum should make her daughter look at the recent set of pictures that show Kelly modelling her latest New Look range in Miami.

“They don’t appear to be airbrushed and I’m FLABbergasted to see how big Kelly really is.

“Rumour has it she’s been hanging out with our mutual ex Danny Cipriani. Knowing him, I guess she’s probably been doing a bit of comfort eating.

“You’re a heffer, Kelly, but still a hot one.”

Her comments came amid rumours that Kelly was considering rekindling things with Danny. 

The following day, Kelly responded, insisting that such remarks were “unladylike.”

KELLY Brook once demanded very steamy sex scenes were cut from an erotic thriller after they “became something different” to what she’d intended.

In the early noughties, actress Kelly starred in Survival Island, also known as Three, alongside her ex Billy Zane.

The sizzling movie features Kelly and Billy in the lead roles as a wealthy couple Jennifer and Jack marooned on a desert island after their luxury yacht catches fire at sea.

Only three people survive the accident, the couple and hunky crew member Manuel, who develops an infatuation with Jennifer that drives Jack crazy.

What follows is an intense love triangle with deadly consequences.

Kelly said in 2005: “It’s a very sexy film, but there are scenes that I’ve asked to be removed.

“You go into a film with the idea of what you want to achieve and then it gets into the hands of others and it becomes something different.”

She added that her decision was backed by Billy, whom she became romantic with while filming the flick in the Bahamas.

The film was widely-panned by critics with scathing reviews dubbing it “dull” and “appalling” despite its sex scenes.

Glamour model turned TV presenter Kelly later found love with hunky Frenchman Jeremy Parisi in 2015 after several high-profile engagements, including to Hollywood actors Jason Statham and Billy Zane, both 58, and rugby star Thom Evans, 40.

Her first engagement was to Brit actor Jason but they called it quits in 2003, with Kelly going on to meet Titanic star Billy Zane in 2005.

They dated for four years before she called it off, with a source saying at the time: “After much soul-searching, Kelly decided that Billy is not the man she wants to marry and has called off the engagement.”

Kelly’s ex Jason is now married to Victoria’s Secret star Rosie Huntington-Whiteley after they met on the set of Transformers back in 2010.

Billy – who is set to play Marlon Brando in a new biopic – later got engaged to model Candice Neil and the couple welcomed two daughters.

Kelly recently made a shock confession on Loose Women about dumping an unnamed ex just a day before they were due to tie the knot.

“I didn’t jilt him,” she explained.

“But I called it off on the day. I was in my wedding dress.”

She added: “The jet was waiting, we were going to Vegas that day, and I was just crying. It was like a movie – it was all very dramatic.

“I was in a dress, it was just horrific. It was the most horrific thing. But we stayed together, and he kind of came around to it and understood why. I’m not going to mention who it was.”

Kelly, now 45, reflected on the relationship’s significant age gap and said: “I was 25 and they were like 42, a lot older.

“They should have known better.”

She added: “I felt I was really manipulated and coerced into something that I wasn’t ready for.

“I kind of went along as a people pleaser. Sometimes you want to stay with the person, but you’re not necessarily ready for that kind of commitment.

“And so, from my point of view, I went along with it until the very last minute and then was like, hang on a minute, I’m not ready for this now.

“So it wasn’t like I jilted them, but it was just the whole situation was wrong. It wasn’t like there was big preparations for a wedding, with family there.”

Loose Women star Kelly Brook is about to head into the I’m A Celebrity jungle but has admitted that she is afraid of just about everything prior to the show’s launch

Kelly Brook has sparked fears that she could quit I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! before the show has even started. The model, 45, is one of the famous faces gearing up to take part in Ant and Dec’s reality show and recently landed in Australia but recent admissions from her could mean that it’s all over before it has even begun.

The Loose Women star will have to live in the jungle with her fellow celebrities, which include big names like Emmerdale legend Lisa Riley, Spandau Ballet singer Martin Kemp and presenter Alex Scott amongst a host of others, and face all sorts of unpleasant things. Kelly discussed her phobias during an appearance on the How to Fail podcast – and it seems she may struggle.

Speaking to host Elizabeth Day, she admitted: “I’m even scared to get the Tube at Leicester Square… I wait for someone to be in front and behind me so I’m sandwiched. I’m scared of heights, snakes, spiders — all of those things.”

Kelly previously claimed she would never take part in the survival reality show and had always ruled it out because of her fears, but, upon announcing that she has changed her mind, she admitted that she now “didn’t give a damn”.

She said: “What changed? Really good question. A friend of mine got asked to have a meeting with the producers of I’m A Celebrity and I said, You have to do it, I love watching it, what an incredible life experience… I was thinking, why can’t I give myself that advice? I realised it was basically out of fear, and I thought, it’s about time that I live my don’t give a damn era!”

Before flying out, Kelly was spotted at Heathrow Airport with husband Jeremy Parisi as she prepared to say goodbye to home comforts – and her beloved dog, Teddy.

She admitted: “I am going to miss my dog Teddy and my husband Jeremy.” According to insiders, Kelly went above and beyond to make sure her pampered pooch was well cared for during her time away.

A source told The Sun: “Kelly is besotted with Teddy and he is used to fine dining, so Kelly spent all hours making sure the freezer was piled high with his special dinners.”

They added: “There’s everything from poached salmon with cavolo nero cabbage through to venison steak with Chantenay carrots. She didn’t have much time to get everything sorted among all her work commitments but catering for Teddy was the priority.”

Reports also claim Kelly even labelled Teddy’s meals to stop her husband from accidentally eating them.

Kelly, who married Italian model in 2022, is said to have finally been convinced to enter the jungle after years of saying she’d never do it.

Back in 2018, she told The Sun: “I hate confined spaces. I don’t want to eat eyeballs or sheep testicles. Even if I had a huge tax bill I had to pay it urgently, I still wouldn’t do it.” Now, seven years later, Kelly has had a change of heart – and fans are eager to see how the glamorous TV personality copes with bugs, bushtucker trials and jungle life.

KELLY Brook touched down in Australia this morning ahead of her I’m A Celebrity appearance.

The model, 46, looked in good spirits as she arrived at Brisbane Airport on Sunday after her 24 hour flight.

Despite the long journey, Kelly looked fresh-faced and raring to go with a full face of makeup and rocking a stunning yellow dress.

However, the star kept tight-lipped about her I’m A Celeb appearance.

Kelly joked as she arrived at Brisbane Airport: “I haven’t seen my auntie Sheila for a long time so I can’t wait to see her, and I’m so excited that you’re all so excited for me.”

Asked about how she is with creepy-crawlies, Kelly quipped there might be some in her “relative’s” garden and added: “I don’t know what you’re talking about, I’m visiting a distant cousin.

“I’m looking forward to surfing. Like I said, I’m looking forward to seeing my distant cousin that I’ve not seen for a long, long time… the koalas and the kangaroos.

“So much to look forward to.”

Asked about sleeping under the stars, she replied: “I’m hoping that I’ve got a spare room. I’m not sure about that.”

She said she is an “Australian sunset” in her yellow and orange dress – before being covered by an umbrella from light rain.

She joked: “Is it raining? Wherever I go I take the weather with me.”

Yesterday Kelly appeared in good spirits as she was spotted at Heathrow Airport just days ahead of her I’m A Celebrity stint.

The model tried to keep a low profile with dark sunglasses covering her face.

Kelly is finally set for I’m A Celebrity — years after insisting she would never do it.

She has been wooed with a big-money ITV deal to head into the jungle.

A source said: “Show bosses have been after Kelly as a campmate for years and think she could possibly be their sexiest contestant ever.

“She’s glamorous, witty and a familiar face to ITV audiences, having appeared as a panellist for Loose Women and other shows.

“She’s guaranteed to make perfect TV viewing.”

The insider added of the Heart FM DJ: “Many viewers will be excited to see her strip off for the famous jungle waterfall show too.”

In 2018 Kelly insisted she would never take part in the series.

KELLY’S FEARS

It comes after Kelly revealed the secret fear that could see her struggle in the I’m A Celebrity camp.

Kelly, told Loose Women that she struggled to go anywhere without her husband Jeremy Parisi, 40 – and would even turn down trips if he could not attend. 

She said: “I’m very co-dependent. Jeremy and I just want to be together all the time.

“Well I definitely want to be with him all the time. Not sure if he would say the same!

“We schedule things to make sure we are together.”

Kelly will be facing the challenges of the jungle alone without Jeremy. 

During the programme, Loose Women panelist Jane Moore asked Kelly: “But if you were, say, going abroad for the night or whatever, on a job, would he come with you?”

Kelly replied: “Yeah he would either come with me or I just wouldn’t go.”

In response, Mariella Frostrup joked: “I’m feeling quite suffocated just listening to you!”

The Sun revealed that THREE soap legends, a chat show icon and a TV pin up will be among the twelve stars heading into the camp.

Over the last few months, The Sun has announced a string of names heading down under, and now we can exclusively reveal Celebs Go Dating star Tom Read Wilson will complete the line-up.

The former Eternal member was one of the many stars who enjoyed a night out at the extravagant Music Industry Trust Awards.

Louise commanded attention as she flashed her bra under a sheer see-through shirt.

She paired it with a maroon ruched skirt and accessorised with a large black clutch bag.

The glitzy do was hosted in partnership with YouTube and Global and saw a raft of celebrities step out for the event at the Grosvenor House Hotel.

Kelly Brook, who is set to star in this year’s I’m A Celebrity, also looked fantastic as she made a statement on the red carpet.

The glam model looked phenomenal as she wore a loose-fitting leopard print dress.

The outfit fell to her feet but left her toes exposed with Kelly choosing to wear open-toe heels for her evening out.

Kelly’s hair and make-up looked flawless as she proudly posed away for cameras at the event.

Popstar Rita Ora was another guest of honour and even took to the stage for an exclusive performance at the shindig.

The Hot Right Now singer opted for an all-pink ensemble.

Rita looked as glam as ever in a hot pink sequined mini dress that she teamed with an equally bright pair of skintight leggings.

She added an oversized pink fluffy fur coat to the look as well as showing off her hair transformation after opting for a brand new fringe.

Rita wasn’t the only performer to hit the stage with Price Tag hitmaker Jessie J also wowing audiences with a stellar performance.

It is one of Jessie’s first gigs since undergoing surgery for breast cancer treatment and having to postpone her scheduled tour owing to medical appointments related to her cancer battle.

Jessie equally looked just as glam as her fellow ladies as she wowed in a figure-hugging white dress which featured a sheer skirt with a translucent detail.

Kate Garraway, Emma Bunton and Olly Murs were also all in attendance for the star-studded night out.
