    Roaming Around From Reeth

    So far on this tour we have had really good weather, so it was disappointing to wake to low cloud yesterday.  Normally at this time of year such cloud burns off by mid morning, but it was one of those days when it just hung around.  I took the dogs out for a couple of miles circuit around Hudswell, but apart from that we did not venture far.  So today I am itching to get back into the hills.

    Stoat or Weasel?

    Once again it is a foggy start, but it soon begins to lift. I take the boys out for an early morning walk, do some work and then we plan our walk. When travelling we like to explore the area we are in as much as possible and rarely cover the same ground twice. However, as we consider our options we talk about our misty walk yesterday and agree to do the same walk again aiming to admire the views.

    So we head for Reeth and park up. It is a Sunday and this is obviously a popular spot for day-trippers. We manage to find a space on the village green and once again head off.

  • From Reeth to Maiden Castle and Grinton

    From Reeth to Maiden Castle and Grinton

    It is yet another misty autumnal morning with the sun doing it’s best to break through. It is also another day when I have to do some work before we head off. This is becoming a regular feature of our touring this year, but sitting in the awning working beats commuting to London any day of the week!

    When we drove through Reeth a couple of days ago we agreed that it was a place we should visit. So we take the short drive up Swaledale and park on the green in the centre of the village.
