The Neighborhood

Just a short walk away is the quaint market town of Leyburn: ‘A Town for all Seasons’ with a wealth of local produce, traditional pubs and a fab weekly market, while a stone’s throw away you’ll find the magnificent Yorkshire Dales! Rolling hills dotted with tiny villages, fine pubs and breath-taking scenes of lakes, rivers and traditional architecture, this is a landscape to be explored slowly. A ten-minute drive away is the 12th century Jervaux Abbey, an atmospheric and charming ruin well worth a look around. Meanwhile, just a fifteen-minute walk away you’ll find Wensleydale Brewery, where you can try one of the county’s famous Real Ales! North Yorkshire is one of the UK’s most beautiful counties, home to the two vast National Parks of the Yorkshire Dales and the North York Moors, and bursting with history and tradition. Across the two national parks you’ll find dramatic landscapes like that of Malham Cove, incredible scenery at every turn and always a warm welcome. There are two cities in the county: York and Ripon, the latter of which is in fact the oldest city in England. Both are deeply historical, teeming with glorious architecture including their Minster and Cathedral respectively, and winding cobbled streets. Meanwhile, the endless villages that can be found in nearly every valley are undoubtedly worth visiting. Pop in for a pint and get to know the friendly locals at the village pub or try out the many quaint cafes. Of course, you can’t leave Yorkshire without a taste of its famous parkin, Wensleydale cheese and rhubarb from The Yorkshire Rhubarb Triangle! Yorkshire is also home to some of the country’s best breweries, including Saltaire Brewery, the Black Sheep Brewery and Theakstons and you can enjoy a fine curry throughout the county. Dotted across the breath-taking landscape of North Yorkshire are a series of striking examples of former abbeys, mostly now ruins. The most famous (and deservedly so) are Fountains Abbey near Ripon and Bolton Priory at the southern tip of the Dales, right at the entrance to the National Park. Complete with a rather lovely café and ice cream shop and set on the riverside amid thriving forests and rolling hills, this is worth a visit for its magnificent location alone!
