My friend from London just came for a weekend and therefore we organised a trip to enjoy the beautiful area in Yorkshire.
On Sat, we went to Aysgarth Falls and Forbidden Corner. Aysgarth Falls is beautiful and you don't need to pay for the entry (although you pay £3 for car park). You can walk on the falls too, but if you do plan to do that, better bring some towel with you. Shame we didn't prepare that, so only 2 of our friends did walk on the falls.
Then, we head to Forbidden Corner. The entry fee is £10. If you book in advance online, it's £9.5. To limit the number of cars going to Forbidden Corner, ticket has to be purchased in advance either online or by phone. Or you can go to tourist information in Leyburn to purchase tickets on the day (but tickets are limited).
Also, they allocate timeslot for visit. On Sat, you can visit at 12pm, 1pm, 2pm, 3pm and 4pm. It took us 3 hours to look round the place and it's really fun once you get inside. There are a lot to do and see, so it definitely worths a visit. Children would love it so much in there.

On Sun, we went to Yorkshire Lavender and had lunch there. The entry is free. We had Lavender slice cake, Lavender Cheesecake, Lavender scones and Lavender tea. So when we finished the lunch, my stomach was full of Lavender taste, ha ha ha.. I think I would recommend cup of English tea with Lavender cheesecake if you go next time. The scones are good too but not the slice of cake.
The Lavender farm is very beautiful but it's quite small. Luckily we still manage to take lots of photos which are great! I would still recommend to go to the Lavender farm in Barnstead near Croydon though! For those of you who would like to go to the Lavender farm, here is the link http://www.yorkshirelavender.com/
