Beautiful picturesque natural landscape and what a lovely drive up to it! Great for day out and long walks.
Been living here for 6 mths & absolutely love it. The river wharf is beautiful, the variety of birds & animals here are also amazing. On the downside, there is a small % of people who ignore all the signs that clearly say take your rubbish home & no barbecues.

Short walk from the car park at Grassington visitors centre. Flat path with downhill slope. Lovely views from the bridge across the river Wharfe.
Lovely place, very busy when the sun is out. We visited Easter Sunday, parking for £3.80 (2 hours). Ice cream van parking in the car park, easily accessible.
