Thoralby quietly nestles close to Aysgarth Falls at the foot of the glaciated valley of Bishopdale. One of the gems of the Yorkshire Dales it is surrounded by ancient byways and footpaths, all brim full of wildlife.

Situated in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, there is easy access to all parts of the Dales by car, whilst an extensive network of footpaths fan out from the village itself.

Unusually, the main Dales thoroughfares skirt around the village and leave it with an unrivalled air of peace and tranquillity. It has retained the characteristics of an active agricultural community, unspoiled by excessive tourism. The local pub, shop and village green add to its charm. MORE
