Craven's Motorcycle Museum is a classic motorbike collection at Brockfield Villa in Stockton on Forest, near York, run by R. Craven. Inside you'll find over 200 machines on show spanning from the 1920s through to 2006, alongside a mountain of motoring memorabilia to explore. It's a treat for motorcycle enthusiasts and collectors, with open days held on the first Sunday of each month through to October 2026, often featuring bikes for sale. The museum notes a travel tip for those arriving via the A64 to avoid queues at Hopgrove roundabout. York station is around 4 miles away, and with 158 bookable places to stay within 5 miles on BritStays, it's easy to combine a visit with a wider trip to York.
