Malham Cove is a vast, curved limestone cliff formation, 260 ft high. One of a kind this spectacular formation has been attracting visitors for centuries and overlooks the village of Malham. There is a footpath which leads from the road to the foot of the cove and then steps which lead to the very top to a limestone pavement, if you dare! A personal favourite and makes for a great day out. The views and scenery are unsurpassed. There is no parking directly at the site, parking is available at the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority Car Park. This natural wonder is a 50 minute drive from the cottage. There are many pubs and cafés in Malhamdale, booking is advised. We take a picnic and flask of tea if the weather is good.

Stunning limestone scenery. Check out Town End Farm Shop on the way up just outside Malham, great for picnic goodies. Has a nice cafe too. Location for BBC Top of the Shop with Tom Kerridge

Keep away at weekends if you can as it gets very busy, but still worth a visit, park in the village and walk to the Malham Cove.

Malham Cove is one of the most spectacular places in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Nearby is Gordale Scar and Janet’s Foss (waterfall). There is a lovely 5 mile circular walk taking in all three. It is not particularly difficult and good walking shoes are adequate. If it is wet, then some areas may be a bit slippery. It is about 17 miles away. There is a good bus service from Skipton bus station in summer. If driving, I recommend returning a different route for more spectacular scenery. Drive out of Malham towards Malham Tarn. This will lead onto the village of Arncliffe ( the original Emmerdale Farm pub is here ). You will head back to Skipton along the Wharfe valley passing Kilnsey Crag.
