  • Ingleborough Revisited

    Ingleborough Revisited

    After our week in Richmond we have moved a little further south, but remain in the Yorkshire Dales. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Scar Close CL and will definitely be returning in the future. Our current location is a familiar pitch to us at Brigholme Farm CL in Giggleswick.

    Past readers will know that we are regular visitors to this site that is within walking distance of our friends in Settle. We have already been here for a couple of days this trip and until now I have done familiar walks in the local area. Today we are heading off for my favourite walk in the Country; it is one that I have done a few times already this year. Regular blog readers will have already guessed that we are heading up Ingleborough.

  • Beware Bears!

    Beware Bears!

    We awake to another misty morning, but again the forecast is for a stunning day. I have a bit of work to do this morning so it is not until after lunch that we prepare ourselves for a walk.

    During our first visit to the George and Dragon I picked up, for a small charge, a booklet of walks and cycle routes from the pub. We have decided to follow one of these, a circular route from Hudswell to Downholme and back.

  • A Wander Through Hudswell Woods

    A Wander Through Hudswell Woods

    We awake to a cracking day, there is some early morning mist but the forecast is bright. I venture out for an early morning stroll with the dogs as the autumnal sun begins to burn off the mist.

    This is one of those days when I will be combining work with our touring. So after breakfast I drive north for a meeting leaving Lynnie dog-sitting with a good book and what looks like the early signs of a cold.

    It is late afternoon by the time I return so there is only time for a short stroll, though for many it would constitute a walk! This wander is far enough to give the dogs some exercise and work up an appetite and thirst for a trip to the George and Dragon later.

  • A Stroll From Hudswell to Richmond

    A Stroll From Hudswell to Richmond

    After an early morning stroll around Poolsbrook Country Park we are soon packed and on the road heading north to Hudswell, just outside of Richmond.

    The journey is straightforward though I am pleased that we had the overnight stop. Finding the site, Scar Close CL, is easy and we are greeted warmly on our arrival and advised on the best location to pitch. It makes such a difference to the feel of the site when the owners want to share their local knowledge.
