ShareGet into the Christmas spirit with a trip to Grassington Dickensian Festival with stalls, entertainment, local food and crafts.
For two weekends in the run up to Christmas the lovely cobbled streets of Grassington are transformed to take you back in time. Stall holders and shop keepers dress in Victorian costumes, and musicians, dancers and street entertainers add to the fun. There is an array of stalls selling traditional local country crafts, food and goodies.
When you need a break, clustered around the square are delightful cafes and pubs such as the Grassington House Hotel. Here you will find great food made from locally sourced ingredients including from their small holding at the top of the village. They also make their own Christmas cakes and puddings packed with dried fruit steeped in lashings of barley
wine and brandy.
