About Us and Around

Our Holiday Let in the Yorkshire Dales lies on the edge of stunning open countryside, facing the short lane leading up from Linton's village green. Set in pretty landscaped grounds with easy parking, outdoor seating, and a sun-trap patio to enjoy the frequent sunny days.

The Village of Linton

An unspoilt and picturesque village, Linton nestles in the beautiful countryside of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, yet it's only 10-15 minutes (8-9 miles) by car from the market town of Skipton, the Gateway to the Dales.

We are lucky that our luxury Bed and Breakfast in the Yorkshire Dales is situated in one of the prettiest villages in Wharfedale, Linton sits around the large green, which gently slopes down to the beck running through the middle of the village. It's a lovely spot to while away the hours and relax in the sunshine. Facing the green is the Fountaine Inn, with a selection of hand-pulled beers, a good wine list, and excellent menu. It has a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere with roaring log fires on chilly days. Offering a choice of snacks to enjoy in the snug or on the green depending on the weather and contemporary dining in the spacious restaurant.

Close by are the incredible Linton Falls, carved through the limestone by the River Wharfe. A large footbridge spans the river giving spectacular views of the falls and up river to the weir where the water powered one of the first public electricity supplies in England.

Grassington

A little further on and within easy walking distance is the pretty town of Grassington, it's a popular spot for afternoon tea and to browse the shops. Grassington also hosts a remarkable festival of the arts during June with an impressive line up of internationally known performance artists. In December visitors come for the Dickensian Christmas street markets when the town is thrown back to the days of Charles Dickens with lots of attractions for all the family. Linton Laithe is ideally located however you decide to enjoy the stunning Dales countryside.

Whether you're looking for time to relax in the peace and quiet or more active pursuits, rambling or trekking, mountain biking or tackling the river Wharfe by canoe, there's a side of the Dales to suit you.

Whilst only 10-15 minutes (8-9 miles) by car from Skipton, Linton Laithe nestles in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales. Immerse yourself in wonderful limestone countryside; climb rugged moorland and impressive crags, tackle the Three Peaks, marvel at waterfalls and immense cave systems or enjoy gentle walks beside the river Wharfe.

If you prefer trekking up and down pretty high streets, visit some of the picturesque villages of the Dales; Malham, Grassington, Hawes, Ingleton and Kettlewell are typical and within easy reach by car. Each has its own character, its charming pubs, tearooms, cafes and some delightful little shops to browse and make a purchase or two.

Also nearby are the bustling market towns of Skipton and Settle with their busy high street markets or perhaps you'll find discovering the elegant Georgian Spa town of Harrogate more appealing.
