Leyburn holiday accommodation

Explore the historic market town

Leyburn has everything you would expect from a traditional Yorkshire market town: a bustling market square, narrow streets lined with independent shops and boutiques, and historic buildings housing cosy pubs and tearooms. Savour traditional Yorkshire fare in a country inn, pop into a quaint cafe for a proper Yorkshire brew, or browse the weekly market stalls on Fridays for fresh produce and artisanal treats. This is the perfect setting for a relaxing short break with friends or a romantic weekend away with your partner. Discover our luxury lodges, cottages and log cabins - complete with facilities like a private hot tub or cosy open fire - to add an extra something special to your North Yorkshire getaway.

Visit local sites and attractions

Despite its seemingly secluded location, this part of Yorkshire has plenty of fun activities and attractions to keep the whole family entertained. Explore historic fortresses like Middleham Castle and Bolton Castle, with their enchanting ruins and breathtaking views; take a nostalgic ride on the Wensleydale Railway, a heritage railway that journeys through the picturesque countryside; or visit the Dales Countryside Museum, with its exhibits, artefacts and interactive displays about the heritage and rural life of the Yorkshire Dales. For a unique and fun day out with the kids, head to The Forbidden Corner, a whimsical and quirky adventure park just a short drive from Leyburn. The 4-acre garden is filled with a labyrinth of chambers, follies, tunnels and surprises, and is sure to delight both young and old. If you're visiting the area on a family holiday, we have plenty of accommodation options to suit a range of tastes and budgets.

Enjoy alfresco adventures in the Yorkshire Dales

With the rolling hills of the Yorkshire Dales National Park right on your doorstep, it would be wise to pack your walking boots! Popular local trails include the circular route around Leyburn Shawl, a limestone terrace which offers stunning panoramic views of Wensleydale; the scenic walk to Aysgarth Falls, the impressive waterfalls featured in the film "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves"; and the disused railway line of Wensleydale Railway Path, which is now a walking and cycling path with beautiful views of the Dales. Spend your days exploring the area's outstanding natural beauty, then head back to your Leyburn holiday home for some well-deserved rest and relaxation.
