September Walking Break – Yorkshire Dales

Sunday 19th to Thursday 23rd September

Mike and Paula Chadderton invite you to beautiful Wensleydale for a Walking Break in the Yorkshire Dales. Spend four nights at Eastfield Lodge, Collett’s charming guesthouse just 250 yards from the picturesque market square of Leyburn, the principal town of Wensleydale and gateway to the Dales National Park.

Each day after a hearty breakfast we will venture out on a magnificent day walk of an intermediate/hard grade, each one amongst the best in the area. After the walks there is time to relax in the hospitable atmosphere and comfort of Eastfield Lodge, where we have 9 delightful en suite bedrooms, a guest lounge and a spacious dining room.
