Best Nature and Parks (RV, National, Dog, etc) in Hartwith Hill

"Aysgarth Falls is the spot of this list closest to our cottages, just 7 miles west from the popular village of Leyburn. This remarkably large waterfall carved out by the River Ure and is comprised of three areas or stages – the upper, middle and lower waterfall. Situated in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, there are public footpaths through the wooded valley alongside the river, offering stunning views of the river and falls."

"Aysgarth Falls is one of Yorkshire’s most renowned waterfalls. Set on the fast-flowing River Ure, it’s actually a series of three cascading falls carved into the river. A tourist attraction for over 200 years, it’s been the inspiration of Wordsworth and has even been featured in a Hollywood movie – Robin Hood Prince of Thieves."

"With five galleries showcasing a range of archaeological treasures as well as displays of rare animals, birds and fossils, the Yorkshire Museum also boasts fabulous greenery, making it the perfect place for tourists to enjoy a relaxing, scenic walk. Established during the 1830s, the historical gardens are famous for their wonderful selection of trees, shrubs, perennials, and bulbs. With botanical gardens comprised of 10 acres, Yorkshire Museum Gardens is the ideal place to visit for a relaxing retreat."

"Visiting the Museum Gardens is yet another free activity to do in York. On a nice, summer’s day you can bring a picnic here and relax on a bench or the grass. You can also explore the ruins of the medieval St. Mary’s Abbey, or simply visit The Yorkshire Museum."

"Take in the refreshing air of the forest while you follow the paths that. will lead you to cliffs from where you’ll have the best view of the Wharf Valley."

"Right in the heart of Nidderdale, Stump Cross Caverns provides the perfect subterranean day out in Yorkshire. You can explore the complex web of walkways and chambers as you descend 65 steps below the earth. These ancient natural caves are home to prehistoric animal remains and a series of unique limestone formations that have been created out of the rock by underground stream erosion over the course of millions of years."

"The limestone landscape of the Yorkshire Dales is riddled with caves. The Dales are home to England’s largest cavern (in Gaping Gill) and England’s deepest cave (part of The Three Counties system). Kids will love donning a hard hat and descending into the dark depths to explore the one mile long Stump Cross Caverns near Pateley Bridge."

"At Skyreholme near the village of Appletreewick in Wharfedale, Parcevall Hall is a Grade II* listed manor house with 24 acres of stunning landscaped gardens that are perfect for picnics. The gardens are one of the most peaceful places to visit in the Yorkshire Dales."

"Within the tranquil grounds, visitors will find many facets of the garden: woodland walks, formal areas, south facing terraces, a limestone rock garden and a beautiful rose garden."

"Sited at the top of Micklegate a few yards from the city walls this bar from independent Scottish brewing giants Brewdog opened after a protracted court battle with a local trader – much to the relief of their loyal following of fans in the York area. I say fans because Brewdog as a company have so far attracted investment in their crowdfunding equity scheme from over 100,000 loyal drinkers. The multi-roomed bar is huge."

"Two things are ‘God’ in chef Paolo Silesu’s rustic Italian restaurant: food and Juventus Football Club. The place is always full of in-the-know foodies and students taking advantage of the reasonably priced menu, but it only adds to the noisy authenticity. Pizzas and pastas make up the bulk of the menu but the regularly changing specials board features Sardinian highlights such as cozze e vongole (mussels and clams cooked in Vernaccia wine with chilli and garlic) or sardines with pesto rosso (pan-seared with onions, rocket and red pesto)."

"Restaurant with ceramics on the walls and a blackboard menu of classic Italian/Sardinian dishes. Truly exceptional home style authentic cooking. Address : 40 Walmgate, York YO1 9TJ, UK"

"Tucked away in Burley, El Faro excels at taking those takeout classics, and just doing them really well. If you order from within the restaurant, you can see them prepare your pizza before your eyes!. More of a kebab fan?"
