Burnsall is a small unspoilt village featuring the historic arch bridge over the River Wharfe and is without doubt one of the prime locations in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Close by is the famous Red Lion Hotel and the village also boasts a primary school with a good Ofsted report, a nursery, church and cafe. The surrounding scenic countryside provides many interesting walks with some of the north of England's finest scenery on the doorstep. The village is located a short distance from the bustling market town of Grassington whilst Skipton is some 8 miles distant and Ilkley only a little further. From both of these towns which offer a vast array of amenities and excellent schools, the commuter can gain easy access by road or rail to the business centres of Leeds and Bradford.
