Beds and pillows all have protective covering which is wiped down with disinfectant after each stay, and we ask you to bring your own sleeping bags, pillow case and towels please. If this is absolutely not possible, we can hire sheets, pillow cases and towels but these will incur an additional cost.
We also have a drying room for if the weather is a little enclement, we are in Yorkshire after all! You will also find a coin operated washing machine here too. (Please ask for the relevant coins). This room can also be locked if a bike store is required.
Our field can be used for camping (additional minimal cost), as part of your booking if your numbers exceed 50. We also have basic family camping facilities down by the river ribble that are available to book independently by calling 07854383738.
The field can be hired by outdoor groups, for example, guides, scouts, Duke of Edinburgh. We have even hosted a jamboree in the past! Additional showers and toilets are provided for camping use.
Fancy some rest and relaxation, pims on the terrace without the children, or time out to complete that hike that’s too far for them to walk? Then why not let the children be entertained by the Yorkshire Dales Guides, situated across our car park?
They cater for groups of up to 60, offering high ropes, climbing walls, caving to mention just a few of their activities. They can tailor a package for children or families to suit your needs. These include guided walks, ghyll scrambling, high ropes and indoor and outdoor climbling. Check out their website for further information. This particularly lends itself to school residential holidays. We can also provide in-house on site catering if required.
The accommodation is very versatile, even lending itself to being a bar for
those special occasions! The local brewery in Settle sell a variety of
beers which they will deliver and assemble ready for your arrival.
