We take a walk around Grassington in the Yorkshire Dales. This beautiful village is situated close to Skipton, Ripon and Harrogate and has so much to offer and so much to see!
Grassington is also where the filming locations for the new version of All Creatures Great and Small are, and you can see them in this video as we take a look around the village.
We start our tour having parked our car in the car park at the Grassington National Park Centre just a two minute walk from the main part of the village.
Walking along Hebden Road we arrive the start of the video at the start of Main Street. Here we start our walk uphill towards The Square, passing the Mad About Mountains shop, The Smithy and Coffee Eco (which serves excellent Carrot Cake!)
As we arrive in the historic market square of Grassington we see the Wine Shop next to the village Post Office and Robert Bunney clothes shop, before taking a look at the restored old pump in The Square.
Further up we see The Rustic Rabbit and Walkers Bakers and Chocolatiers next to The Devonshire pub which features as The Drovers Arms in All Creatures Great and Small, just one of many filming locations here.
Next up we see The Hatch and Helen Midgley before coming to The Retreat Tea Room and bistro, and Darrowby's Coffee Bar and Lounge and then arriving at Chocolace where you can find the biggest selection of liquorice sweets in the Yorkshire Dales!
We pass the Foresters Arms before arriving at the original smithy (or Smidy) which was once owned by the notorious Tom Lee in the year 1766. Tom Lee was executed and hung in York after the murder of Richard Petty.
We continue up Main Street to find The Cake House and Ashton House furnishings where you can find all kinds of crafts and art and hand carvings.
As we turn onto Garrs Lane we come to one of the filming locations for the Robert Downey Junior film Dolittle. The whole street became a scene and a filming location as the Dolittle scenes were shot here. Amazing to think a Robert Downey Junior movie was filmed here in Grassington!
We had back down into the village and pass the Grade II listed building of Grassington Congregational Church which sits opposite some beautiful village cottages.
As we pass the Black Horse Hotel and Corner House cafe we come to one of the most well known All Creatures Great And Small Filming Locations.
Grassington was turned into the fictional town of Darrowby that James Herriot wrote about in his books, and the place we are looking at was turned into Skeldale House which was the building the vets surgery was located
Just along from Skeldale House is another of the film locations for All Creatures Great And Small as the Stripey Badger Bookshop is turned into G.F Endleby Greengrocers shop!
Just down from there in The Square is Grassington Folk Museum which tells the story of the area from it's lead mining days to present day.
Next up is Grassington House. This is an upmarket restaurant and bar with hotel rooms above. Very nice and recommended!
As we reach the end of our Grassington Tour we find Bluebell Home and Gifts shop next to Cobblestones Cafe, another great place to eat and drink! We end our walk around Grassington outside Glad Rags Boutique shop.
Overall I would highly recommend a visit here. It really is one of the best villages in North Yorkshire and the Yorkshire Dales. So if you are wondering what are the things to do in Yorkshire head to Grassington for a great day out! They also have an annual Grassington1940's weekend which is a must see event.
