burnsall

Nestled in the charming village of Burnsall, the Red Lion is the perfect place for exploring the Yorkshire Dales National Park and further afield.

For those who enjoy walking, The Dales Way passes through Burnsall on it’s way to nearby Grassington, or you can walk southwards to Appletreewick and beyond. A short drive away and you’ll soon find the villages of Malham, Bolton Abbey and even Nidderdale AONB.

Skipton is also nearby if you’d like to discover a typical Yorkshire town, and the stunning spa town of Harrogate is just a short trip down the A59.
