Aquí puede aprender parte de la historia de la ciudad con su guía y ver los restos de una cruz anglosajona. , que se cree que tiene alrededor de 1300 años, en la Iglesia de Santa María la Virgen, explore las pintorescas tiendas o simplemente disfrute de una tranquila cerveza de Yorkshire y un poco de pastel en uno de los cafés de la plaza: ¡usted elige!
Cruzando Masham Moor, donde las ovejas deambulan libremente entre el brezo y el vasto paisaje abierto en nuestro camino hacia Nidderdale. Las fantásticas vistas y el paisaje sobre el embalse de Gouthwaite y los kilómetros de paredes de piedra seca lo hacen perfecto para algunas paradas fotográficas. Llegamos a la pintoresca ciudad de Grassington, famosa por su papel como la ciudad ficticia de 'Darrowby' en la nueva serie de televisión 'All Creatures Great and Small', emitida por primera vez en 2020. Aquí tendrá 1,5 horas de tiempo libre para explorar la tiendas, cafés y lugares de rodaje o incluso visita el pub Devonshire Arms (The Drovers in All Creatures Great and Small) para tomar una copa con los lugareños.
Saldremos de Grassington y nos dirigiremos a las hermosas Linton Falls. Está a muy poca distancia en coche, por lo que, si lo prefiere, tiene la opción de dar un corto paseo desde el aparcamiento del Centro de visitantes por el antiguo camino de piedra hasta las cataratas de Linton y reunirse con su guía en el puente sobre el río Wharfe. .
La parada principal de la tarde es en la Abadía de Bolton, donde la entrada es gratuita y podrá explorar la Iglesia Prioral y las ruinas del Priorato Agustino del siglo XII en su hermoso entorno junto al río, o tal vez tomar el desafío de los peldaños si se siente más aventurero. !

The scenery of the Dales was spectacular! The trip to Grassington was lovely as I’m an avid fan of All Creatures Great and Small. Our driver Chris was knowledgable, friendly and quite the historian. He also was kind and accommodating, I highly recommend this tour! It would be a great idea to add Helen’s farm into the tour.
Thank you very much, Deidre, for your wonderful five star review of our Herriot and Yorkshire Dales Day Trip from York. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the spectacular scenery of the Yorkshire Dales and your visit to Grassington, which has become so well known as the filming location for Darrowby in the current television adaptation of *All Creatures Great and Small*. Thank you also for your kind words about Chris. We are pleased he helped make your day so enjoyable with his local knowledge and passion for Yorkshire's history. Thank you as well for your suggestion about including Helen's Farm. As our scheduled Herriot and Yorkshire Dales Day Trip from York has a carefully planned itinerary, we are unfortunately unable to include every filming location. However, Helen's Farm is one of the highlights of our Private *All Creatures Great and Small* Yorkshire Dales Tour, where we have the flexibility to explore even more of James Herriot country. Thank you again for your recommendation. We hope to welcome you back to Yorkshire again soon. Lucy Best of Britain – Yorkshire Day Tours

We did the Yorkshire Dales trip in June. The landscape was stunning, our driver, Chris, was friendly and knowledgeable, the bus was comfortable, and every stop was well planned. We did a similar Cotswold tour a few years ago, and we liked this even better.
Hi Melanie, Seven thumbs up is a wonderful endorsement, thank you! We are so pleased you enjoyed your Herriot and Yorkshire Dales day trip from York. June is a beautiful time to explore the Dales, and it is lovely to hear the scenery, comfortable travel, and carefully planned stops all helped make the day so memorable. It is especially nice to know that, having enjoyed a Cotswolds tour previously, you rated your Yorkshire experience even higher. We think there is something rather special about the Yorkshire Dales, and Chris will be delighted to hear his friendly approach and local knowledge added to your enjoyment of the day.
