Local attractions

Helmswood Barn can be found in an idyllic situation in Dentdale, nestling under Helms Knott and surrounded by sheep-grazed meadows. It lies midway between the quaint and unique village of Dent with its cobbled street and quaint alleys, and the ancient market town of Sedbergh offering a treasure trove of little speciality shops and cafes. A relaxing, 'get-away from it all' experience, for those who need a break  from the hustle and bustle of daily living!

Dentdale is often said to be the most hidden and appealing of all of the Yorkshire Dales, ideal for visiting both the Lake District and the Western Dales. Perfect for walking.

Dent

Dent With its narrow, cobbled main street, white-walled cottages and ancient village church, set in a deep, narrow valley, Dent, in Cumbria, is one of the loveliest of Dales villages.

Aysgarth Falls

Aysgarth Falls The three stepped waterfalls at Aysgarth have been a tourist attraction for over 200 years. Wordsworth visited them and Turner sketched them. More recently they provided a dramatic setting for a scene from the Hollywood movie Robin Hood Prince of Thieves.
