Famously where they filmed the old All Creatures Great and Small James Herriot series but I’d guess only old gits like me and @NoahVale would even know what that is.

White Scar caves are nearby too, which is a nice trip out if it’s the girls’ sort of thing

There’s a few waterfalls throughout the dales. If you get to Hawes for the creamery, it’s a 4 mile round walk to Hardraw Force which is the largest waterfall in England, you access it through the back of a pub.

Went for a week’s holiday in Yorkshire in 2014 when my daughters were ten and seven years old!

We stayed on a working farm that rents out a separate farm house about half an hours drive from York. Was great cos my two got to help herd sheep etc which they loved.

We spent two days in York itself (the rail museum is much more fun than you’d expect, honestly) did yorvick twice (as well as the ride there are archaeologists who love chatting to history nerd kids). City walls are fun to walk and there are a million places to have a nice coffee /hot chocolate. Climbing the Minster tower is great too.

Also spent a day in whitby which is just a brilliant town to hang out in and again loads of great places to eat and drink. Did Fontaines Abbey too, also fab.

Loved it so much we haven’t been outside the UK for our holiday since 10/10

this. gordale scar and janet’s foss are a stones throw too, for even more waterfall action. spoilt for choice for nice walks round there, there’s also decent pub grub to be had in Malham itself half a mile down the road

Love how bleak the countryside is round there.

If you do visit York I would advise avoiding the weekend. The city is over-run with drunken stag and hen parties pretty much every weekend which can make it unpleasant. If you’re up for a week come midweek.

I stayed in Skeldale House, the vets’ surgery (it’s now a B&B)

You have to access the waterfall through The Green Dragon Inn, never a bad thing. It’s the waterfall where Costner goes skinny dipping in Robin Hood

This. We went to York on September and did Monday to Wednesday, getting the late train home so we had 2.5 days in York . Worked pretty perfectly and I had a great time.
