We’re an independent property finding service focused on the Yorkshire Dales and surrounding areas.
Our Approach
The aim is simple: to make the process of finding and securing the right property more straightforward, more efficient, and ultimately more successful.
Rather than relying solely on what’s publicly available, we take a proactive approach - working closely with local agents and contacts to uncover opportunities, assess suitability, and guide clients through each stage of the process.
It’s a service built around clarity, discretion, and attention to detail.
A different kind of property search
Found in the Dales is led by Steve and Galvin, working together to give buyers something more personal, more informed and more considered way to search for Property in the Yorkshire Dales.
We work together on every search, combining local knowledge, commercial judgement and strong relationships across the Dales to help clients make better-informed decisions.
Our approach is deliberately hands-on. We take the time to understand what matters, search beyond the obvious listings, speak to the right people locally and give an honest view of the opportunities we uncover.
Because we know the area well, we can often add context that a property listing never will; from the practicalities of a location to the character of a village, the local market and the people worth speaking to.
The result is a service that is professional, independent and grounded in real knowledge of the Yorkshire Dales.
And yes, if you need to know where to find a good pub or a decent pork pie along the way, we can probably help with that too!
What Sets Us Apart
Local Knowledge
The Yorkshire Dales offers a wide range of locations and lifestyles, and not all are immediately obvious from a property listing.
From well-known market towns to quieter, less visible villages, understanding the differences between areas is key to finding the right fit.
We help clients navigate that, highlighting not just the strengths of a location, but also the practical realities that come with it.
Working Relationships
We work closely with a network of trusted local agents and professionals, allowing us to access opportunities early and support clients throughout the buying process.
This includes introductions to solicitors, surveyors, and other specialists where needed—ensuring the right people are in place at each stage.
