Yorkshire Dales

I live a few short miles from the Yorkshire Dales National Park. It is a place that I know very well - but I tend not to venture there too often, especially on a Summer Weekend. Then it becomes a tourist hotspot, with the lanes - many of them single track - getting busy.

But this is the attraction - the Dales are stunning and if you venture off the beaten track - away from the busy village greens and pubs, you will find a magical place - often spending the day alone without meeting another Soul. This is what I love the best.
