Yorkshire Dales National Park Day Trip
Yorkshire Dales National Park Day Trip
We'll meet in Duncombe Place at the time indicated in York and set off westbound towards the picturesque Yorkshire Dales National Park.
Our first stop will be Bolton Castle, Wensleydale's most famous landmark, where Mary Queen of Scots once resided. Here you'll learn about the area's curious history, admire the impressive views and even enjoy a traditional Yorkshire tea.
On the way to our next stop, we'll drive through the scenic Askrigg, which is the fictional village of Darrowby from James Herriot's All Creatures Great and Small TV series.
The tour will then continue to Hawes, where we'll spend one hour and thirty minutes exploring the area. You can visit the Wensleydale Creamery Visitor Centre to sample handcrafted cheeses, visit The Dales Countryside Museum and the quaint shops around the market town. Following on, we'll leave Hawes and head into the Yorkshire Dales National Park while passing through charming villages alongside the River Wharfe and making several photo stops.
We'll stop at Kettlewell, famous for being the filming location for the Calendar Girls movie, to explore the village or enjoy a drink at a local pub. Then we'll continue on through the countryside, to Kilnsey Crag, Grassington and Nidderdale.
Our final stop will be Pateley Bridge, where you can visit the Guinness Book of Records 'Oldest Sweet Shop in the World'.
We'll arrive back in York after 8 hours.
