At no time of year is God’s Own Country more heavenly than autumn, with golden bracken, falling leaves and no shortage of pubs in which to warm soggy boots by the fireside – especially around the Yorkshire Dales National Park. HF Holidays offers self-guided walking holidays out of 19th-century Newfield Hall – a spot ideally placed for attempts on the blustery summits of Pen-y-Ghent and Ingleborough, or an amble beneath the mighty arches of the Ribblehead Viaduct on the Settle-Carlisle Railway.
