About this property

Town Head Farm, a detached Grade II listed farmhouse resting on the outskirts of Malham, enjoys a superb position close to the iconic Malham Cove and the dramatic scenery of the Dales National Park. Blending characterful original features with thoughtful modern updates, this impressive property provides a welcoming base for families or groups seeking to explore this celebrated part of Yorkshire. Inside, you will find a spacious sitting room with feature windows, a dedicated dining room, a well‑appointed kitchen, a selection of attractive bedrooms and two bathrooms. Outside, the garden offers a lovely spot for alfresco dining while admiring the surrounding landscapes.

From the doorstep, guests can discover the many highlights of the Yorkshire Dales, with Malham Tarn, The Cove and Janet’s Foss all within easy reach, alongside an excellent network of walking trails. For amenities, there are two well‑regarded pubs within walking distance, both serving traditional food and local ales. Full of character and charm, Town Head Farm provides a memorable base for discovering this remarkable corner of the Dales.

Situated at the head of Malhamdale amidst superb open limestone countryside, the picturesque village of Malham is a magnet for visitors to the Dales who come to see one of Britain's most impressive natural features - Malham Cove. The Cove consists of a natural cavern or 'amphitheatre' of limestone rock stretching 75 metres in height and 300 metres around the perimeter. A steep walk up man-made steps is rewarded with a superb view across moors and limestone pavements to Malham Tarn - the Pennines' highest natural lake. The village itself has pubs and tea rooms and a National Park Centre. Mountain bike hire can be arranged locally. There is excellent walking in all directions, making Malham a great base for a Dales holiday.
