The tiny hamlet of Healaugh is made up of traditional cottages and farms close to the River Swale in glorious Swaledale. The ancient nearby village of Reeth dates back to Saxon times and was mentioned in the Domesday Book and later became a centre for lead mining and, surprisingly, for hand knitting. The village green is an unusual triangular shape and the 18th Century houses and hotel cluster around the central space. It is unsurprising that this honeypot of a village attracts many visitors. Another popular village, Askrigg, is close by, as are Aysgarth Falls, Semerwater and Hardraw Force. The wealth of attractions and outdoor pursuits this area has to offer make it a fantastic base for a memorable holiday.
