With a stone circle dating back to the Bronze Age, this quiet Dales village is of ancient origin. The lovely little town of Embsay was once the site of a monastic settlement in the 12th Century and still provides an exciting insight into the country’s past. With the Embsay and Bolton Abbey Steam Railway and its award-winning authentic station buildings and steam trains as well as the Old Mill in the village, visitors can witness what the town may have been like in ages past. The Mill now boasts a needlecraft centre and coffee shop, however for all other amenities and attractions, the bustling market town of Skipton is close at hand. Nearby Bolton Abbey, Kilnsey and Grassington are all worth visiting, and with such beautiful surrounding countryside, it isn’t hard to see why the area is so popular amongst walkers.
