Bed and Breakfast at Littondale in the Yorkshire Dales

Lyn and Bryan Morgan welcome you to Park Bottom which is situated in the unspoilt village of Litton amidst the beautiful scenery of Littondale - 'the secret Dale', in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales 'National Park.

Litton is a peaceful quiet hamlet, with a Post Office and the excellent Queen's Arms Inn which serves real ale in a traditional bar. The pace of life is relaxed, people are friendly and the setting could not be prettier.

Here you may escape the crowds, lose track of time and enjoy the special charm of the Dales at their very best.

Park Bottom is a house built in traditional style, using the stone from the miners cottages originally on the site, and offers modem standards of comfort and warmth with central heating and double glazing throughout. There is ample private car parking

Guest bedrooms are all en-suite, with courtesy trays for tea and coffee making. Drying and ironing facilities are available. All rooms have splendid views of the surrounding fells, and guests are welcome to sit and relax in the garden or the stone flagged terrace.

We offer full English breakfast to get you off to a good start and we can provide packed lunches if required. Evening meals may be obtained in the village at the Queen's Arms Inn or further afield in Arncliffe, Kettlewell, Kilnsey and Grassington. 

The ever-changing seasons ensure that Littondale has something to offer whenever you come.....

In the spring, the lanes and fields are a mass of wild flowers; in the summer the sheep graze in the meadows and a great variety of birds can be seen; Autumn brings rich, deep colours to the trees and the moorland heather which provides cover for the many grouse and pheasant.

Opportunities for walking abound. From the door you can amble along the river or twisting lanes down the Dale to Arncliffe or up-Dale to Halton Gill.

If you are feeling more energetic there are several circular walks across the top of the fells into Upper Wharfedale, taking in the villages of Kettlewell, Starbotton, Buckden, Hubberholme and Yockenthwaite - with a choice of several interesting pubs for a lunchtime pie and pint!

The eight mile circular walk around Pen-y-Ghent Gill passes a neolithic burial mound and disused lime kiIns and takes you along an ancient pack horse trail.

A short drive from the door opens up endless further possibilities in what is undoubtedly some of England's best walking country.

Visit the bustling market towns of Skipton, Settle, Hawes and Richmond; outstanding natural features like KiInsey Crag, The Strid, Malham Tarn and Gordale Scar; grand country houses including Castle Howard, Harewood House and the Bronte's house at Haworth; castles where you can retrace the steps of Richard III or Oliver Cromwell; the haunting ruins of Rievaulx and Fountains Abbeys, and the Priory at Bolton Abbey.

There are many historic churches in the local villages and, of course, everywhere are the barns and dry stone walls that make the Dales scenery so unique. There are many other activities available in the area - fishing, pony-trekking, potholing, climbing, caving, railways, and a leisure centre a short drive away.

Bed and Breakfast is from £29 to £34 per person per night. We offer winter mid-week breaks and reduced rates for children, plus discounts for stays of two nights or longer.
