Dramatic Walks
If there’s one thing we like more than going for a walk, it’s going for one that offers a bit of drama. Whether it’s towering cliffs, breathtaking views or natural wonders – we love a walk with a WOW factor.
In Julia’s TV series of Britain’s Best Walks with a View she visited Malham Cove in the Yorkshire Dales – and this week we’re going to retrace her steps. It’s a walk that certainly offers us some incredible views!
Magical Malham Cove
A huge ampitheatre of limestone rock, Malham Cove stands around 260 feet high. The summit is formed of a large area of deeply eroded limestone pavement, in a unique pattern that is rarely seen elsewhere in the country. Our walk today takes us up onto the plateau and offers amazing views out across the surrounding valley.
One of our favourite places to stay when we’re in this part of the world is Cottage in the Dales. With all the luxuries you may need, this is very much a home from home that guarantees you a warm welcome.
If you’re looking for a last minute getaway – you can save 20% on all September arrivals at The Byre. Contact Cottage in the Dales direct to book.

Whether you’re new to caravanning or an old hand at it – the show has something for everyone with expert talks, towing tuition and over 350 exhibitors who are there to help inspire your next adventure.
