Tudor House – a great base for exploring "the finest place there is"

Bill Bryson was reputed to have said something along the lines of:

" I won't know if Malhamdale is the finest place there is until I have died and seen heaven, but until that day comes, it will certainly do"

And who are we to disagree?

With the world famous Malham Cove at it's head, Janet's Foss and Goredale Scar carrying the water from Malham tarn it has enough walks to keep the most dedicated rambler entranced for days.

The annual event of the Peregrine Falcons breeding on the cove means that the rest of the wonderful wildlife in the Dale perhaps doesn't get the attention it deserves, but for the serious 'twitcher' to the occasional spotter there is always something to catch the eye.

Tudor House (www.tudorbellbusk.co.uk) is a unique building in the southern reaches of Malhamdale (www.malhamdale.com) , in that it served as the railway station for Malham for around 100 years before closing in 1959.

Sometime later it was converted to a guest house providing the most unusual setting for bed & breakfast accommodation for many a mile. It sits on the world famous Skipton Settle Carlisle line with the incredible Ribblehead viaduct as its centrepiece.

It now provides the warmest of welcomes for walkers, cyclists, bikers or those simply wanting to relax for a few days in the wonderful surroundings.

With 2 double rooms, a twin room a family suite (sleeping up to 5) and a single room almost any configuration of party can be catered for.

It was built by the Midland Railway in the 'Tudor' style and retains it's unique black and white features to this day. Used in part for the filming of Bette Davis' 1952 film "Another Man's Poison" there is little wonder she is reputed to have wanted to take the place back to America with her!
