Not sure I have ever reviewed a waterfall before but here goes. It’s free, relatively easy to get to and if you’re into waterfalls quite pretty. If you come by car 🚘 it’s on street parking and a 150m walk down steps and along a flat path.
Very cool down there on a burning hot Bank Holiday weekend. It’s a shame there’s no access to more of the (smaller) falls downstream. It’s a very steep gorge so the water drops away from you. Not a sign of the river upstream that I could see, a maker shame. Well worth a little walk down the hill to the path (signposted) by the side of a house..
A lovely little waterfall with very easy access. Easy side of the road parking and only 40/50 yards to get to the falls with a few, very well maintained steps.
Attractive waterfall situated in a small wooded area just a minute or two from a residential street. It's quite a surprise when the waterfall comes into view after taking the short walk from the village. Well worth a quick stop if you're in the Leyburn area, easy to reach and a good place for photo opportunities.
Great waterfall just off the road, but parking is limited
