Begin your day with a gentle stroll through the quaint village of Long Preston, where you can stock up on the essentials at the local Post Office and village store, or enjoy some traditional fare at the local pubs. For a truly picturesque day out, take a short drive to the historic market town of Settle and take in the breath-taking views from the Settle-Carlisle Railway line, or tour The Museum of North Craven Life for a taste of history, before exploring the limestone scars of Malham; a must-see in the area. Equally as impressive, Skipton is a bustling town with a vibrant atmosphere, with a colourful high street of shops, cafes, and pubs. To make the most of the scenic region, a walk, hike, or bike ride along the trails of the Yorkshire Dales National Park is a must, stopping off at one of many beauty spots for a picnic, before returning home for sundowners. All of this awaits at 17 The Oaks.

Long Preston is an attractive Yorkshire Dales village in Ribblesdale, twelve miles from Skipton (popularly known as the 'Gateway to the Dales'), four miles from Settle. To the north, the landscape rises to the fells, moors and picturesque valleys of the Dales; to the south are the wetlands of the Ribble Valley which, in turn, sweep upward to the magnificent wilderness of Bowland. The village benefits from several large, tree lined, village greens, with footpaths leading direct to the surrounding hills, and it also boasts two excellent pubs with first rate cuisine. The railway station on the edge of the village provides access to the famous Settle-Carlisle Railway line which crosses some of the most beautiful and inspiring upland scenery in the country. Nearby Settle is a bustling market town with a weekly market, the centre being dominated by the Shambles, an historic 3-storey building with shops on two levels and houses above, and the Town Hall. There is a good selection of restaurants and pubs and a public swimming pool.
