With no shelter from the prevailing wind, no matter what its direction, it can easily be cut off during extreme weather conditions.

Downe Arms Inn"Superb pub with friendly staff and service, all home cooked food and beautiful accomodation. All locals vey friendly, real ales and very high quality, great atmosphere, would strongly recomend a visit, …" More If you’re looking for a fun, cosy, eccentric ale house with a twist, in the heart of the stunning Peak District, with award-winning cask ales and a fabulous menu, then look no further! With beautiful surroundings, a welcoming atmosphere, and a genuine passion for great service, The Downe Arms Inn is the perfect place to eat, drink, and stay. In Summer – well, at any time if you’re brave enough – there are camping facilities outside, and in fine weather a tent pitched here can make a marvellous and inexpensive base for walkers. On a wintry day walking into the bar, which somehow seems made up entirely of snug, cosy low-beamed corners is such a delight that one would be tempted to nip back out and do it again if the atmosphere and warm aromas of excellent cooking had not already hooked you. The food is always lovely and Blakey chips are the best for miles around.

We sat down and talked it over, and were reassured by a lady who worked here, who said her sister in Farndale had two children of the same age, and that it was a lovely area in which to bring children up. “We saw some lovely ones, but there was always something that put us off. A 100-seat restaurant is being built on to its Farndale side, together with ten letting bedrooms to add to the present four, and new living accommodation for the family. Five years after uprooting themselves from city life, the Crossland family are still living with their heads happily in the clouds – running one of Britain’s highest inns, 1350 feet above sea level, in one of the wildest parts of the North York Moors. In one of the most picturesque spots on the North York Moors, it provides the perfect setting to walk off that Sunday lunch…just remember to wrap up warm! A day spent rambling the fells, a hearty dinner and two or three pints in front of the fire, with or without the grand piano accompaniment – does anything come closer to heaven?

All along this stretch of coast, the UK’s largest Atlantic seal colony can be spotted swimming and hauled up on the beaches, but Horsey is the best place to see the seal pubs. This small hamlet just north of Great Yarmouth is one of Norfolk’s hidden gems and has a lot to offer visitors. To find Cornwall’s best beaches, head off the beaten path, to those that require a bit of a hike to reach, like Nanjizal Beach in West Cornwall.

We offer private hire and catering services for a variety of special occasions. Come join us and find out why The Mill is the perfect spot for a day of fun and relaxation. The ‘Giraffe Cafe’ is a particularly great spot for adults to bask in the sun while the kids play in the sand pit.

But there is, happily, no longer a coffin room, at The Lion Inn on Blakey Ridge, some 16 miles into the walk from Osmotherley, instead it is now quite literally full of life. Whilst there are still thousands who traverse across the moors in stout boots and weather-wary clothing, and many who continue to retread the footsteps of the corpse-laden over the route known as the Lyke Wake Walk. Vegetarian offerings are good and original, as is the fish, and fans of traditional puddings will be pleased by the presence of jam and treacle roly-poly on the menu. Going to Blakey was a great way to end a lovely day and I’m just relieved that we ate after going for a walk. There was lots of chicken in it and an abundance of sauce, which can sometimes be lacking in other places and the plate was piled high with the rice and chips.

They are right next to each other and at low tide it is possible to walk for over two miles across the white sand from one beach to the other. Step back in time and experience Neolithic history at Skara Brae, the Ring of Brodgar, the Standing Stones of Stenness, Maeshowe, and the Knap of Howar. The more popular option is to take the ferry – either NorthLink Ferries from Scrabster to Stromness or Aberdeen to Kirkwall, or Pentland Ferries from Gills Bay to St. Margaret’s Hope. Flights to the main airport is Kirkwall are available with Loganair from a few cities in Scotland.
