    Yeah I could definitely spend a lot of time in those woods! They look like a fairytale! Obviously I’d hope not to hear strange noises and see shadows though 😂 the monuments are so cool!! I’d love to go inside the cave! Great video and I love how detailed and helpful it is for people planning a trip there.

    This looks incredible. This kind of trip is right up my street. A bit of history a bit of myth and secrecy. Just awesome. And beautifully shot as usual.

    Off the beaten track bit beautiful place once you found it I rode there a few times years ago and I actually had my dinner on the alter without knowing about devil worshipping on the same place I ate my lunch lol I heard about it afterwards and also heard that a man lived out there for 7 years eating mushrooms and other stuff and went totally insane

    Some ravers had a rave there some years ago loads from Manchester and other places gathered and music and off there heads but they disrespected the place and broke trees down set fires and other wrongful things that is so horrible to do this in such a special 1off place that sees thousands of visitors each year from everywhere despite rumours that there's ghosts there but even if there is they did not bother me

      Yes, as much as I will never complain about a sunny day there was a part of me that had wished the weather was a bit dark or foggy for a bit of a creepy feel 😄 Glad you noticed the birds... I spent ages in various spots standing really quietly trying to record them without accidentally sneezing or making the ground crunch, haha! Thanks for watching guys!

    We would be very happy to stay at that campsite! One of the things that captivates me about this temple is that it's not perfectly landscaped around it. Love to see the ferns and tall grass occupying all the nooks and crannies. Some spooky stories... but I agree, it comes across as being peaceful.

    Looks like it's been a place of Pagean worship. A Siva temple. Definitely not 1800s.. it should around 15000 years or so.. Carbon dating records are essential.

    • @OurTravelPlace
      @OurTravelPlace  4 роки тому

      It depends on what sort of camping you are after. There is a campsite where we parked, although that's yurts etc rather than tent camping. As far as I know there isn't anywhere you can take a tent in the immediate area but it's the Yorkshire Dales so a campsite won't be far! 🙂 Thanks for watching

    Oooo! I'm itchy to travel to places with history! We don't have anywhere quite like that here...We booked a flight in January 2020 for February 2021... but I'm feeling less and less confident. Do you get snow in Yorkshire? We are looking for a wintery alternative if plans fall through.

    • @OurTravelPlace
      @OurTravelPlace  4 роки тому +1

      Yes Yorkshire gets snow, but it's a bit hit and miss when or for how long. We usually get some, but I would consider Yorkshire a particularly snowy destination, if that makes sense! Where is your Feb flight? We were hoping to rearrange our cancelled Belgium trip for December but now I'm thinking the chances are very slim....
