About Siegfried’s Retreat
Home to the fictional market town of Darrowby in James Herriott’s ‘All Creatures Great and Small’, this picturesque village has everything required for a relaxing break: a cobbled market square, fringed by independent, artisan shops and art galleries, friendly cafés and fabulous pubs, all set against the dramatic backdrop of the Dales. There is something for everyone: incredible walks and scenery, superb restaurants, visitor attractions such as Stump Cross Caverns. Or for the kids: Billy Bob’s Parlour and Hesketh Farm, to name just a few. The bustling market town of Skipton is approximately 15 minutes’ drive away.

Perfect For
Harrogate — on your doorstep
Grassington has a starring role as the fictional market town of Darrowby in the most recent, very popular TV series of James Herriot’s ‘All Creatures Great and Small’. Little has changed since the 1940s, when the bestselling author was a rural vet in the Dales, which is why this unspoilt, picturesque village, with its traditional Yorkshire stone buildings and tranquil ambience, is ideal for a relaxing break.
The cobbled market square is fringed by independent artisan shops, art galleries, and convivial cafés serving delicious, homemade fare. Great pubs pull craft ales, pour favourite tipples (and many make dogs as welcome as their humans); restaurants focus their menus on locally sourced, seasonal produce whilst catering for individual diet, taste and budget… all enhanced by the breathtakingly beautiful Dales backdrop.
The area has something for everyone: scenic walks and cycling routes for all levels; visitor attractions such as the fascinating Stump Cross Caverns; and Coldstones Cut – an outdoor sculpture which commands spectacular views. For the kids, highlights include The Forbidden Corner, Billy Bob’s Parlour and Hesketh Farm, to name just a few. Skipton, with its castle and bustling market, is approximately 15 15-minute drive, and the cosmopolitan spa town of Harrogate is less than an hour away.
