Thornton le Dale is a picture-perfect village in North Yorkshire known for its idyllic riverside scenery and thatched-roof cottages.

It was voted the prettiest village in Yorkshire in the 1920s and 30s, and is often still regarded as one of the prettiest villages in Yorkshire today. The 'le' was added into the name to give the village a bit more marketability in the early 1900s.

There are a number of great cafés, restaurants, pubs, shops and galleries in the village.
