Under a Big Sky - Yorkshire is famous for its landscape which is a playground for walkers, cyclists, mountain bikers, climbers and anyone else who isn’t happy unless they are outside and away from noise and people. Settle is well known for the quality of its footpaths with favourite local walks including tackling Yorkshire’s renowned Three Peaks. An easy route with which to start leaves from the market place and goes to Catrigg Force, affording walkers with impressive views of Pen-y-Ghent. Other paths lead to Ingleborough, Stainforth Falls, Pen-y-Ghent and Plover Hill, and Austwick. Alternatively, save your legs and take a short train journey from Settle to nearby Horton-in-Ribblesdale to explore further afield.
Plenty of our holiday cottages have facilities for washing and safely storing bikes.

Mountain bikers can also enjoy using the Pennine Bridleway as well as the nearby Gisburne Forest Bike Trails. The Yorkshire Dales is popular for activities like caving and climbing, with local businesses such as Cave and Canyon providing instruction and guided outings for those who want it.

No studio set can compare to a genuine Yorkshire community like Settle, which was the setting for the film Calendar Girls. Eight miles from Settle is Malham Cove, which featured in Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows Part 2 and a favourite with walkers for its rugged beauty. Further away but still close enough for a day out are places like Castle Howard, used for filming Brideshead Revisited and the Aysgarth Falls which were a backdrop to Robin Hood Prince of Thieves.

Its cafe is also an excellent spot for morning tea or a light lunch - perfect for fuelling hungry visitors for an afternoon of exploring. One of the quirkiest attractions in the country is the Listening Gallery where visitors can choose from a list of stories to hear inside a repurposed heritage phone box.
A rainy day in the Yorkshire Dales can be spent in Hawes or Grassington, both of which are a 30-40 minute drive from Settle. Visitors can go underground in White Scar Cave near Ingleton, or take a trip on the famous Settle - Carlisle Heritage Railway and marvel at the rugged romance of the moors and mountains. Yorkshire has some magnificent stately homes, some with breathtaking art collections as well as a fascinating past.
