Local Attractions
Directly across the road from Honeycott are several footpaths all with stunning scenery leading to Gayle, Hawes and part of the Pennine Way.
Gayle Mill (as seen on BBC’s Restoration programme) is within walking distance of the park as is the famous Wensleydale Creamery which sells Wensleydale (Wallace and Gromit) cheese and has a well stocked shop, licensed restaurant and guided tour of the cheese making factory.
Or why not visit Hardraw Force, the highest single drop waterfall in England. Just across the dale and viewed by walking through the pub – what better excuse to stop for a pie and a pint...
Hawes is also well within the reach of day trips to the Lake District with Kendal approximately an hour away.
