Little Town Farmhouse

Highlight • Cafe

Many thanks for the kind hospitality.. we basically had ran out of water, got to this place which is closed on Mondays and despite this, the owner let us fill our water bottles and with no persuasion at all, served us cold draught Moretti.. not sure if it was because of the long miles and really hot sunny day but they were the best 2 pints we had ever tasted.. I can't really comment on the food but i will definitely be going back to try it out. A beautifully kept farm house on a popular hiking route, what more could you possibly ask for.

Swinside Inn

Highlight • Pub

This was an excellent pub stop when we visited in June 2021. When we returned in August 2024 it was disorganised, understaffed and we were unable to get food, so very disappointing. Maybe it was a temporary glitch but we won't visit again.

Newlands Church

Highlight • Historical Site

This quaint grade two listed church is nestled beatifully in the picturesque Newlands Valley. On a visit to the region, William Wordsworth was so taken by the image of the church through the leaves that he wrote the poem 'To May' to immortalise the moment. The church is popular with both hikers and tourists and makes for an opportunity for mindful or spiritual pause during a hill day.
