Reisroute
We komen aan bij Wensleydale's beroemdste bezienswaardigheid, het 14e-eeuwse Bolton Castle waarin ooit Mary Queen of Scots was gehuisvest, waar je de gelegenheid hebt om te genieten en het prachtige uitzicht over Wensleydale te fotograferen, leer een beetje over de geschiedenis van het gebied vanuit je gids, of neem gewoon een ontspannen Yorkshire Brew in de Tea Room van het middeleeuwse kasteel - de keuze is aan u!
Vervolgens nemen we de schilderachtige route richting Hawes, die door Askrigg, het fictieve dorp Darrowby, in de tv-series James Herriot All Creatures Great en Small gaat.
We brengen anderhalf uur door in Hawes, de hoogste marktstad van Engeland, waar je misschien wat kunt lunchen en de gratis handgemaakte kazen kunt proeven in het wereldberoemde Wensleydale Creamery Visitor Centre, het Dales Countryside Museum kunt bezoeken of gewoon de leuke winkeltjes en cafés van de stad zelf - de keuze is aan jou!
We verlaten Hawes en reizen naar het hart van het Yorkshire Dales National Park voor een aantal fotostops terwijl we door de pittoreske Dales-dorpen langs de meanderende route van de rivier Wharfe passeren.
We komen aan in het traditionele Dales-dorp Kettlewell, internationaal beroemd gemaakt in 2003 als de belangrijkste filmlocatie voor de film Calendar Girls. Je kunt het dorp verkennen en meer leren over het ware verhaal achter de film, of gewoon genieten van een biertje of koffie met de lokale bevolking in een van de pubs en cafés - wat je maar wilt!
We vervolgen onze reis door het prachtige landschap van het Nationaal Park, passeren Kilnsey Crag en het dorp Grassington terwijl we door de glooiende heuvels van Nidderdale lopen, een gebied van uitzonderlijke natuurlijke schoonheid.
Eindelijk zal er een korte stop zijn in het charmante stadje Pateley Bridge, categoriewinnaar in de Great British High Street Competition in 2016, waar je de optie hebt om "De oudste snoepwinkel ter wereld" te bezoeken (Guinness Book 2014 van records). We verlaten Pateley Bridge en gaan terug naar York.
