And, we aren’t the only ones who think so, one Yorkshire spot has been named of the most scenic winter walks by Country Living magazine.
Bolton Abbey is one of our favourite spots to visit any time of year with its amazing 2th-century Augustinian monastery, the babbling River Wharfe and the vast landscape to explore. And. it’s has been named 6th in Country Living’s spots to take a walk in this winter.
