Happy National Cheese Day! π§
Today, we're looking back at our specialist, Katie's, visit to Wensleydale Creamery in Hawes, home to Yorkshire's famous creamy, crumbly Wensleydale cheese.
Set amongst the beautiful scenery of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, the creamery is a wonderful place to learn about the traditional cheese-making process, sample local cheeses, and enjoy a day out in one of England's most picturesque regions.

Live from the South West Coast Path during the UK heatwave. βοΈ
Sine from Absolute Escapes is the third member of our team to head off on a research trip this year. This time, she's exploring the spectacular Westward Ho! to Padstow section of the South West Coast Path through Devon & Cornwall.
Each year, our team travels across the British Isles on research trips like Sine's, helping us keep our knowledge up to date and our recommendations grounded in genuine first-hand experience.
Sine has been enjoying a few incredibly beautiful (and very hot!) days on the trail, with stunning coastal scenery every step of the way. π
Have you been making the most of the sunshine this week too? Share your photos in the comments.
