SUBJECT Malham Cove felt art / Yorkshire Dales landscape
This artwork was inspired by a memorable walk through the Yorkshire Dales, beginning in the picturesque village of Malham. Following the gentle stream through the meadows, the towering limestone cliffs of Malham Cove gradually came into view, growing more impressive with every step.
Climbing the famous stone steps to the summit was rewarded with breathtaking views across the surrounding countryside. Standing at the top, it was impossible not to pause, take a deep breath and simply enjoy the peace and beauty of the landscape. That quiet moment inspired the title, “Take A Breath.”
After taking in the spectacular scenery and enjoying a picnic, we crossed the famous limestone pavement before continuing our walk to Janet’s Foss. A paddle in the cool waters of the woodland waterfall provided the perfect way to relax before returning to Malham village for a well-earned cup of tea and slice of cake.
This original felt landscape captures not only the remarkable scenery of Malham Cove but also the sense of calm and wellbeing that comes from spending time in nature.
Malham Cove is a majestic view,
You’d know if you’ve been there too.
The curved rock face, the trickling stream,
The kind of view straight from a dream.
A magical place in the heart of Yorkshire,
A beauty spot that’s such a corker.
Ascend the mount – it’s a long slog,
But at the summit, you feel top dog.
This is the view to beat,
With cracked rocks beneath your feet.
Breathtaking beauty, the calm, the air…
Take it all in from way up there.
Release the tension, breath by breath.
Stretch your eyes out towards the horizon.
You’re now truly alive and free,
In the place where you want to be.
