Find My Favourite Holiday Cottages in Burnsall

The Yorkshire Dales village of Burnsall lies on a sweeping bend in the River Wharfe, in Wharfedale. It is overlooked by the rugged fells of Simon’s Seat and Burnsall Fell and is two miles southeast of the market town of Grassington. It is an ancient community, and the parish church houses carved Anglo-Saxon stones. Wharfe View Café is the perfect place to enjoy tea and homemade cake or lunch prepared with fresh, local ingredients, overlooking the river. The Red Lion has a bar which is always well stocked with Yorkshire ales and a reputation for serving delicious food. There are a couple more pubs – the Craven Arms and the New Inn – in the village of Appletreewick, a stroll eastward along the banks of the River Wharfe in North Yorkshire.
