Thankyou Yorkshire Life

We're still buzzing to have been awarded the Diversification Award at the recent theyorkshirepost Rural Awards - thanks to Ben Barnett @harrylooknorth and the rest of the judges @ Kilnsey Park Estate instagram.com/p/B34vSqanNfy/…

We've had the floods and the snowfall so we're overdue some crystal blue skies - and finally here they are! Glorious. Hoping for a change of luck for everyone who's been suffering flooding recently #spring #hope… instagram.com/p/B9Bn2MOnpMr/…

A glorious day to be alive in the Yorkshire Dales - acres of blue sky, the snow- capped peak of Great Whernside and air so crisp and pure it's practically one of your 'five a day' #live #life #greatoutdoors #nature… instagram.com/p/B9EmWqxnmUS/…

By'eck Yorkshire, you're beautiful! 😍 Being outdoors may ease feelings of anxiety & fears of #socialdistancing. Our nature reserves are here for you - today, tomorrow, next week or next month. Together - with the help of nature - we'll get through this. 💚 📷 James Elkington.

Beautiful day to be fishing here in the Yorkshire Dales, thankfully anglers don't need any encouragement to 'social distance' - stay responsible and safe everyone.

Malham & Malham Tarn are always popular but today have seen the biggest crowds of the year, car parks full & people congregating. #SocialDistancing means not doing these things; #GetOutdoors but not with 100s of others, please, it's for all our sakes! #CoronaCrisisuk

Please heed the advice of our partners from our National Parks with regards to visiting open spaces, countryside and coastlines. #YorkshireTogether

Visitors should not be coming to the National Park this weekend and local people should not be making unnecessary journeys around it. Please help the Police to help us all. See our latest update for details. yorkshiredales.org.uk/covid-19-north…

The message is clear #StayAtHomeAndStaySafe #Malham #YorkshireDales #YorkshireDalesNationalPark

It's a rare and beautiful thing having a swan come to visit - they're not regular in this part of the world. So imagine the joy of seeing two. And the happy thought that perhaps one of them was the brown-feathered… instagram.com/p/B-wHse-HUel/…

It’s strange that we can stand around a DIY store surrounded by other folk but we can’t stand alone in a river. Perhaps about time a rethink is necessary.

Here’s a fun thing we’ve done. How to measure 2 metres... Yorkshire style!

Kilnsey Park Estate remains closed to the public. This includes the car park, cafe, family fishing pond and nature trail. Our main fishing lakes will be taking pre-bookings only from Monday 18th May. Please enjoy the countryside responsibly and remember that the battle isn't won

This is a fantastic project with multiple benefits for the natural world and we're looking forward to working alongside The Wild Trout Trust and others

It's just gone 9 o'clock on the 4th July and at long last we're fully open again... and this is how happy we feel! victoria baker

Fantastic to hear so many people talking about the life changing (and often life saving) mental health and wellbeing benefits of fishing on BBC Radio 2 just now and the good work being done by Tackling Minds and others Paul Whitehouse bob mortimer Angling Trust
