Yorkshire Dales Holidays, Self-Catering Cottages and Apartments
The Yorkshire Dales is an upland area of the Pennines, mainly in North Yorkshire. It is a remote and sparsely populated part of England, characterised by green pastures crisscrossed by drystone walls and grazed by sheep and cattle. The countryside is wild and unspoiled, with great swathes of heather-covered moorland and hay meadows. Find Yorkshire Dales holiday homes amidst deep river valleys hugging the sides of the rugged hills that rise from the Vale of York to the hilltops of the Pennine watershed. The Yorkshire Dales National Park is a paradise for outdoor pursuits, with countless footpaths to explore, many of which lead to high hilltops, tumbling waterfalls or limestone cliffs and caves.
