Stay in the Yorkshire Dales

Village life in the Dales

Nestled in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales, Malham oozes charm, whatever the season. Life feels slower here, the sunrise wakes the the morning chrous and sheep graze in dry stone walled fields, the way things have been for centuries. The village is nestled in Malhamdale with Malham Cove forming a breathtaking backdrop as you drop into the village from the nearby town of Settle. An all year round haven for walkers, come and see what all the fuss is about.

Things to do

Walks from the door in the heart of The Yorkshire Dales.

Malham Cove

At 70 metres high and with 400 steps to the top this crescent-shaped piece of limestone history is a unique spectacle when standing at the bottom and offers views across the Dales when you’re at the top. You may recognise where you’re standing from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1. Watch out for the peregrine falcons during the summer months.

Janet’s Foss

A magical waterfall with fairy tales and clear waters that invite you in. Found in a small wood in the middle of the valley, the foss is a tranquil spot to unwind to the sound of flowing water, or go for a dip to feel the real benefits of the pool.
