My parents arrived off their overnight flight, and we set off on an outing almost immediately. Cool air and waterfalls in the Yorkshire Dales are a good remedy for lack of sleep. It had rained most of the previous day, so Cauldron Falls in the village of West Burton was living well up to its name.
With my injured foot I couldn't walk on uneven ground, but there is a small car park here and a path to the waterfall, so it is easily accessible even when you're not in the best of health. It's a quiet village, and the kids enjoyed a little play while my dad took pictures around the waterfall.
K.J. did his research beforehand and took us to Hardraw Force located in the little hamlet of Hardraw. It's the longest single-drop falls in England, and the fall color made it especially beautiful. Make sure you wear your wellies.
There's also a beautiful church and a 13th century inn, The Green Dragon, near the entrance to this privately-owned waterfall. It's just a short walk up a path to the falls.
It's a great place to visit if you find yourself in the Yorkshire Dales.
