Autumn in upper Swaledale is quite breathtaking. The shadows lengthen as the days shorten. The dale takes on a peaceful quality as the trees display their autumn colours.

Take time to stand and stare – you’ll have the place to yourself. Less traffic, more space, maximum relaxation. Quiet lanes and footpaths and no problem finding a table in the pub! We look forward to seeing you.
