2 Best Sights in Yorkshire, England

Dales Countryside Museum

Located in the same former train station as the Hawes National Park Information Centre, this local museum traces life in the Dales past and present. A traditional rope-making shop opposite also welcomes visitors.

Wensleydale Creamery

Sort of the cheese equivalent of a winery tour, this museum in a working dairy documents how the famed local cheese—so beloved by the popular animated characters Wallace and Gromit—developed over time. You can watch production (best seen between 10 am and 4 pm on weekdays) from the viewing gallery and then taste (and buy) over 20 varieties of the output in the excellent cheese shop. A restaurant serves plenty of samples—try Wensleydale smoked with ginger or with apple pie.
