Kettlewell is a small village situated at the foot of Great Whernside just north of Kilnsey in Upper Wharfedale in the Yorkshire Dales. This is Calendar Girls country - the hit movie having been filmed here and at other locations in the Yorkshire Dales during the summer of 2002.
The village is also famous for its annual Scarecrow Festival - which is usually held over a week in August.
From Kettlewell the main B6160 leads on up the dale to Starbotton and Buckden, while a very steep single track road leads up Park Rash and over the moors between Buckden Pike and Great Whernside down in to Coverdale.
