Nestled in the heart of the picturesque Yorkshire Dales, this historic village is a feast for the senses, with its quaint stone cottages, winding cobblestone streets, and the gentle flow of the River Wharfe that runs through it. The Village, also known as Tiff, has a rich history that dates back to the Middle Ages, with evidence of human habitation in the area dating back to the Roman period.
