| Yorkshire Dales Travel Guide Edit This The best resource for sights, hotels, restaurants, bars, what to do and see Janet's Foss near Malham Janet's Foss near Malham Merv Stapleton The Yorkshire Dales National Park is in one of the most popular and beautiful regions of England. It is easily accessible and has plenty of reasonably priced accommodation and other facilities. But it is the beauty of the area with its river valleys - the dales - and delightful villages and small market towns that give it its appeal. It is an inexcusable omission that the National Park does not include lovely Nidderdale which remains outside it to the east. This omission should not be seen as a reason to avoid Nidderdale. ___________Sights Edit This Plumpton Rocks, Nidderdale Plumpton Rocks, Nidderdale Barrie Pepper Almost any view in the Yorkshire Dales could be deemed a sight so it is necessary both to be choosy and only to select a few. Of the larger north to south dales, probably the most picturesque is Wharfedale where you can see Bolton Priory, Anne Clifford's Tower and several fine villages as well as Grass Wood and the Strid and the walk from Bolton Priory to Simon's seat is full of great views, not being as eroded as the tops on the Pennine Way or the Three Peaks. It is a truly magical drive from Wharfedale via Littondale to Malhamdale where the limestone features of Malham Cove and Gordale Scar are outstanding. Swaledale, one of the northernmost dales runing from west to east, is another particularly scenic dale with its steep sides leading up to lead mining remains and the distinctive barns scattered all over the dale itself. Richmond is a historical borough and enjoys a still functioning Georgian theatre; it is just a short walk to the remains of Eastby Abbey. In Wensleydale hawes is a splendid town with its Tuesday market and Dales Museum and the road from there to Buckden in Wharfedale is stunning. The creamery where Wensleydale cheese is made is a good visit. At the far west of the Dales lies Ingleton, a small market town below Ingleborough, one of the Three Peaks, very shapely with an Iron Age hillfort at the top. Ingleton is also well known for its waterfalls walk, where you have to pay as it runs through private land. Even so it's good to know a place where the scenery is at its best in heavy rain! [Add Sight] Hubberholme Edit This This delightful village is in Langstrothdale, which turns into Wharfedale at nearby Buckden. There are particularly good walks all around it, including part of the long distance Dales Way. The church is wonderful little building with a rare rood loft and the old rectory is now the George Inn. type: Churches and Cathedrals World66 rating: [rate it] zipcode: www.yorkshire-tour.co.uk/yt/hubber.htm ___________History Edit This The Dales are rightly esteemed mainly for their scenery but they have their share of historical sights. Jervaulx Abbey is within the National Park and the famous and extensive Fountains Abbey is only just outside. Middleham castle was the home of warwick the Kingmaker for a time and after him it was owned by his son-in-law, Richard III, the Shakespearian villain cursed even by his other but still enjoying a society to proclaim his innocence. Much more recently lead mining has left many remains over much of the landscape. ___________Practical Information Edit This Youth Hostels Youth Hostels in the Yorkshire Dales are located at Bishopdale Valley, Dentdale, , Grinton Lodge, Hawes, Ingleton, Keld, Kettlewell, , Malham and.
