A New Home in the Dales

Claire Storey’s narration breathes life into Betty Firth's vivid characters and setting, her voice soft yet expressive as she guides you through Bobby's journey. The pacing is just right—slightly slower than real-time to fully immerse in the Yorkshire landscape while maintaining a steady momentum that keeps you hooked. However, at times, some of the local dialect can feel a bit forced, distracting from the narrative flow. Still, the heartfelt friendship between Bobby and her colleagues adds depth and warmth to the story, making A New Home in the Dales a delightful auditory experience.
