I had tentatively planned to be in the Dales the last few days in May/first of June. But I gather this part of the half-term holiday. Is it just that one week? How busy will it be--assuming I can find accomodation, will towns and paths be overrun? (This is one reason I'm avoiding the height of summer.)

The half term holiday up in Yorkshire is w/c 26th May, but some schools 'add on' a day or so into the second week (ie the 2nd/3rd June).

However.............although school holidays can make some places very much busier I don't think it will affect the Dales very much and you will be fine.
