Overview

Step into the 1930s world of the hit Channel 5 / Masterpiece PBS show "All Creatures Great & Small". On this tour you will spend a remarkable day visiting film locations you will instantly recognise from the show as you pass through the astonishingly beautiful Yorkshire Dales countryside.

Follow in the footsteps of James, Siegfried, Tristan, Helen and Mrs Hall as you stroll through Darrowby village, past the Vet's Surgery and the Greengrocers to the Drover's Arms. Wave to Mrs Pumphrey and Tricki Woo as you pass by their mansion. You pass over the narrow bridge where James always encounters another vehicle, on your way to Helen's family farm set in the stunning Yorkshire Dales scenery, dotted with sheep and friendly cattle..

You will visit these and other locations in a comfy, air-conditioned minivan accompanied by an experienced driver and an expert guide. There will only be a maximum of 6 guests on your tour so there is plenty of laughter, conversations and photo stops.

What's Included

  • Relaxed and friendly small-group tour of no more than 7 guests
  • Comfortable minivans with air-conditioning, WiFi and charging points for most mobile devices
  • Regular photo / refreshment / comfort stops

Yorkshire Dales National Park

You will see: The famous church where Helen nearly married wealthy landowner Hugh Hulton. Skeldale House, the home of Siegfried, Tristan, James and Mrs Hall. The lonely spot where James gets off the bus in the very first episode. The village green where Darrowby Fair was held. The Drover's Arms, Tristan's favourite watering hole. Mrs Pumphrey's mansion, home to Tricki Woo. Alderson's Farm, home to Helen, her spirited young sister Jenny and Scruff the dog. The perilously narrow bridge where James always seems to encounter another vehicle. Stunning landscape of the Yorkshire Dales and its wonderful array of animals.

Cool Destinations wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Destinations over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
