Experience the breathtaking beauty of the Yorkshire Dales on this full-day tour departing from Windermere. Begin your journey as you leave the tranquil Lake District behind, winding your way towards the charming market town of Sedbergh. This quaint town offers the perfect opportunity to stretch your legs and enjoy a coffee break before immersing yourself in the stunning Dales countryside.

From Sedbergh, you'll embark on a scenic drive through the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, where rolling green hills, patchwork fields, and rugged limestone landscapes stretch as far as the eye can see.

Continuing, you’ll arrive at Castle Bolton, an impressive 14th-century fortress steeped in history. This medieval stronghold famously served as the prison of Mary, Queen of Scots, who was held captive here for six months in 1568. 

Next, the tour takes you to the awe-inspiring Aysgarth Waterfalls—a series of cascading falls set amidst lush woodland. These picturesque falls have captured imaginations for centuries and gained fame as a filming location for the iconic movie Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. Spend some time here to admire the natural beauty and capture some unforgettable photos.

The journey continues to the market town of Hawes, home to the renowned Wensleydale Creamery. Here, you’ll have the chance to sample a variety of delicious cheeses, including the famous Wensleydale cheese popularized by the beloved British characters Wallace and Gromit. The creamery offers insight into traditional cheese-making processes and is a delightful stop for food lovers and fans of Yorkshire culture alike.

This enriching day tour offers a perfect blend of natural beauty, history, and local flavour—an ideal escape to explore the Yorkshire Dales’ unique heritage and landscapes all in one unforgettable day.
