The Yorkshire Dales is an area of outstanding beauty with a gentle way of life - ideal for getting away from the hurley burley of modern living. Here you can tour one or many of the nine Dales by car, motorcycle, bicycle or just walk. The hillsides of the various Dales are mostly gentle inclines, populated by sheep (take care with your dog)and while the weather isn't always sunny, it adds to the beauty of the Yorkshire Dales.
For hotels, country house hotels, bed and breakfast, holiday cottages, self catering accommodation, lodges, caravan and camping sites, you'll find them in yorkshiredalesholidays.com. Most offer bargain breaks, mid week breaks and weekend special offers.
While you are here why not go horse riding or pony trekking, hire a bicycle or go walking in the Dales.
Enjoy a great English breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea or evening meal in the wide choice of cafes, pubs, hotels and restaurants.
