Fall in love with Leyburn

Nestled in the surrounding natural beauty of Wensleydale, Leyburn is one of Yorkshire's many picturesque gateway towns, offering a range of quaint, rural curiosities to discover. With unique local shops and cafes, plenty of traditional pubs like the popular Sandpiper Inn, and a traditional weekly market selling all kinds of local produce, Leyburn is a great base for sightseeing around Yorkshire.

Nidderdale - Yorkshire's favourite

For many in the area, Nidderdale is the best part of Yorkshire. An Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, its incredible rolling moorland is covered in a patchwork of meadows, making Nidderdale a paradise for anyone looking to escape the furore of urban life and soak in the unspoilt tranquillity of rural England. With the Yorkshire Dales National Park and Fountains Abbey within easy reach, Nidderdale is always worth exploring when you're passing through the area.

Delve into Fountains Abbey and the Studley Royal Water Garden

One of the most well-preserved Cistercian monastic ruins in the whole of Europe, Fountains Abbey ranks among the proudest historical attractions in Yorkshire. A haunting ruin that offers a unique window into medieval religious life, the abbey is a short walk from the Studley Royal Water Garden, a tranquil area of reflective ponds, follies, and statues, with the ruins themselves incorporated seamlessly in its elegant design.
