リッチモンドシャーの山小屋＆キャビン・トップ9

Great place to stay, luxurious and friendly and they even stick black sheep brewery Holy Grail Ale. Truly a wonder to behold

Stayed the night here on a rather cold night in early March. Despite the cold the weather was sunny and I had a wonderful sleep. Although don't expect to get a mobile reception. I must say a big thank you to the Bolton Estate for allowing walkers/cyclists/bikepackers to use this wonderful facility. If you use it please make sure you leave it as you would expect to find it.

Closed after a rainy day hike...soul destroying event that I don't think I will be able to recover from! Caught it open two days later. Not much there by way of coffee, or cakes. Plenty of stickies and ice cream though. More than anything it is a stunning location, the owners are charming, and has outside seating.

This was a godsend, good strong cup of tea and fresh cakes just before the big push over the top.

Lovely campsite. Get the little patch on top of the hill.

Feels very remote here, but you're not really far away from civilisation. Pick your route. North up a stiff climb to Greets Moss. West on Apedale Road on exquisite gravel. South towards Castle Bolton with a great gravel option leading to the Sweet William Hut & Carperby.

Hey, David. I was riding up there when they were filming. Some dishevelled woman with a hat crossing the road in front of me. Approach from Kirby Stephen, Swaledale or Reeth. Beware a westerly when travelling from Reeth. The climb can take over an hour & be grindingly tough |-<

Situated on the southern slopes of Swaledale, YHA Grinton Lodge is surrounded by stunning scenery and exceptional views of the Yorkshire Dales, and just a 10 minute walk from the village of Grinton.
