Find My Favourite Holiday Cottages in Embsay
Embsay holiday cottages are surrounded by windswept heather moorland and flat-topped hills. This sleepy village lies on the southern edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park in the Craven district of Yorkshire. From a distance, it is little more than a huddle of stone homes nestled at the foot of Embsay Crag. Beyond the crag, Barden Moor is a stretch of open moorland popular among walkers. It is a steep ascent to the summit of Embsay Crag, but the views across the Dales are well worth the effort. There are three reservoirs on the moor, one home to Craven Sailing Club.
Follow the banks of a gentle beck into the village centre from your holiday cottage in Embsay, and you will discover a variety of family-run businesses, including a grocery and an arts and crafts shop. There is also a post office, a church and a village hall where pantomimes, film nights and other community events are held. The Elm Tree Inn is a historic pub serving a range of delicious Yorkshire classics, and the Cavendish Arms is a great place to meet the locals over a pint of local ale. Embsay is known for its graceful, stone-built architecture, including the listed Manor House, which dates back to 1635.
