Probably the most popular of the Yorkshire Dales villages, Grassington is situated at the centre of the Limestone and Upper Wharfedale Dales, making it a convenient location from which visiting tourists can explore other nearby villages, such as Skipton or Kettlewell.
Though commonly referred to as a village, Grassington is indeed a town, having being granted a fair and market charter in 1282 and both events being regular occurrences till the 1860s. The Grassington Farmers Market still takes place on the third Sunday of every month, boasting more than twenty stalls; visitors are treated to a wide variety of goods and wares, from pies and cakes to pottery and herbs.
For the most part a residential town, the area has been inhabited since the 13th century and has maintained a rather small population size since then. Early settlers were mainly farmers but due to its deposits of lead, Grassington quickly gained a reputation as a mining town. Evidence of this can be found at the Upper Wharfedale Folk museum which has some intriguing artefacts and documents of the town's rich tradition on display.
When not taking a tour of the museum, holiday-makers can take in the delightful scenery of the vicinity and its surrounding environment, either by walking through Grass Wood on a guided tour or paying a visit to the Kilnsey Crag Overhang. A breathtaking experience that gives a remarkable insight to how the Ice Age glaciers played a major part in carving the landscape of the Dales.

One such place is the luxurious Grassington Lodge; a guest house which among other enviable services offers lodgers a star gazing experience.

Also dotted all over the town are cottages, apartments, holiday homes, caravans and other self catering types of accommodation that manage to compete favourably with the hotels and guest houses. Some of them dating as far back as the mining rush era.
