Along the way you'll discover the English countryside so beautifully showcased on All Creatures Great & Small. You'll explore Wharfedale & Wensleydale, visit Grassington (Darrowby in All Creatures Great & Small) and the Alderson's Farm at Yockenthwaite.

Itinerary

  • World of James Herriot

    Enjoy the chance to explore the World of James Herriot Museum, in the building where the world's most famous vet lived, worked and wrote his amazing books.

    1 hour

  • Ripon Cathedral

    We make a brief visit to the small city of Ripon to visit the amazing cathedral, built on the site of the original Saxon church. You can explore the cathedral and its original crypt, built in 672AD.

    20 minutes

  • Yorkshire Dales National Park

    Discover the quintessential English countryside as we travel through Wharfedale and Wensleydale on an amazing scenic tour of the Yorkshire Dales. This is the landscape and scenery made famous by James Herriot's adventures in All Creatures Great & Small. Countless photo opportunities present themselves as we take to the rural back roads and farm tracks that take us off the beaten track.

    2 hours 30 minutes

  • Burnsall

    Take a walk across the village green and alongside the river Wharfe, following in the footsteps of Mrs Hall and her gentleman friend Gerald.

    10 minutes

  • Grassington

    We enjoy a lunchtime stop in the charming town of Grassington ("Darrowby" in All Creatures Great & Small). You can see Skeldale House and the instantly recognisable market square from All Creatures Great & Small. To save time, your guide can help pre-order lunch (own expense) at the Drover's Arms (in reality, the Devonshire).

    1 hour 30 minutes

  • Hubberholme

    You'll pause in Hubberholme, where we have chance to see the amazing Church of St Michael and All Angels. The inside of the church is recognisable as the place where James & Helen get married.

    15 minutes

  • Yockenthwaite

    We drive through Yockenthwaite - the location featured as Heston Grange - the Alderson's Farm, where James first meets Helen, in All Creatures Great & Small. We stop for photos overlooking Yockenthwaite.

    15 minutes

  • Wensleydale Creamery

    We make a brief afternoon stop at the Wenselydale Creamery - chance to sample an amazing array of local cheeses in the free tasting room.

This was one of the most...

Published on Oct, 2024

This was one of the most amazing tours I've ever been on. Chris was exceptionally knowledgeable and friendly. He did a great job of driving us the the breathtaking Dales, taking us to all the James Heriot sites that he has been personally familiar with. I not only recommend this tour to others, but will seriously consider booking other tours through Chris in the future.

First Hand All Creatures Experience

Published on Oct, 2024

This tour was everything we hoped it would be - an inside look at the area from the James Harriot books plus an up close look at the town and farm areas the new All Creatures television series is filmed. Our guide, Chris, was excellent! Having been born and raised in the area he had all sorts of tidbits to share with us. Using a small tour system (6 folks to a van) made this a cozy and personal tour. The landscape spoke for itself - just like the series! And Chris was an expert at pointing out interesting facts about the area we would have missed if out on our own. We had a wonderful time and highly recommend this tour - especially if you are fans of All Creatures Great and Small, but even if you aren't it is so worth it. P.S. This tour includes a stop in Grassington, the town BBC uses for filming.
