Malham Tarn Estate
Malham Tarn Estate sits high in the Yorkshire Dales, surrounding one of England's rarest natural features — a limestone lake perched improbably on the moor. The surrounding landscape of limestone pavements, moorland and damp pasture forms an extraordinary natural laboratory, one that inspired Charles Darwin. Walking here, with the tarn glinting under open skies, feels like standing at the edge of the world.
