There are plenty of pretty towns and villages in the Yorkshire Dales offering access to delicious local foods and pathways for walks into the surrounding hills and waterfalls. Kirkby Stephen (6 miles) is known as a walker’s gateway to these fells, offering opportunities for a riverside ramble as well as the option to tackle a section of one of the long-distance paths such as the Eden Way or Coast to Coast.

Alternatively, history buffs will enjoy a visit to Pendragon Castle (4.5 miles), which is believed to have been built in the 12th century but lays claim to older Arthurian legends.
