Nestled in the steep-sided Dentdale valley in the western end of the Yorkshire Dales is a tiny village which appears untouched by the passage of time. Dent features narrow, winding cobblestone streets lined with white-washed stone cottages.
With just a couple of pubs, a tea room and a village store, it’s a tranquil place where you can escape the hustle and bustle of modern life. Dent feels like a slice of history - there’s hardly any street lamps and you won’t find it heaving with cars.
The village is surrounded by the stunning landscape of the Yorkshire Dales and glimpses of the green hillsides can be seen between the rows of cottages. Historically Dent belonged in the West Riding of Yorkshire, but today it’s located in Cumbria.
