East House is situated in the picturesque village of Gayle and overlooks
the fells. Duerley Beck cuts the village in half and adds greatly to
its attraction. Hawes is quite a busy little town famous for its Wensleydale
Cheese that is made there. Restaurants, cafes and pubs are plentiful
so there
are no difficulties getting meals or sandwiches of any price range
required. Market day is Tuesday.
Why not pay the Creamery a visit walk around the museum and watch the
video giving details of where the milk is collected. There is also
a viewing platform where
you can watch the cheese being made. The Dales Countryside Museum and the Rope Makers are also well worth seeing. |

There are two very picturesque waterfalls: Gayle Force and Aysgill Force. Hardraw Force which is the highest single drop waterfall in the country. The force is only 2 miles away and is well worth a visit. Semmerwater is a lake of great interest and the third largest natural lake in Yorkshire. It is possible to park your car by the lakes edge. Aysgarth Falls a great favourite to all visitors, they descend in a series of broad steps along half a mile of the river flanked for most of the way by overhanging woods. Bolton Castle is of great historical interest as Mary Queen of Scots was imprisoned there. The Castle is open to the public. |
