Set in beautiful Wensleydale, the little town of Middleham nestles under the imposing ruins of its medieval castle, once home to Richard III and then known as the Windsor of the North.
When the castle fell into disuse, stone from its walls was recycled to construct many of the town's houses. Panoramic views of the surrounding area can be enjoyed by climbing the new steps from the castle keep. Afterwards, why not relax with a visit to the Castle Keep Tea Rooms or a meal at one of the local pubs such as the Richard III, White Swan or Black Bull Inn?
Middleham is the finest horse racing centre in the North Country, famous for flat and National Hunt training. It is said to be home to a thousand racehorses. Stable visits, with a guide, may be booked in advance (minimum age is 16.)
Billed as "the strangest place in the world" and suitable for visitors of all ages, the Forbidden Corner is a four-acre garden complete with follies and a network of tunnels and chambers. Originally a secret, private enjoyment, it opened to the public by popular demand.
Middleham is surrounded by a timeless landscape of farms, enchanting villages and heather-clad moors, ideal for the walker, cyclist, bird watcher and nature lover alike.
