Walking

Walkers will be well occupied with all the lovely walks in the area. OS maps 72 and 73 are the ones for this area and the cottage has a selection of books of walks. Of course you can just step out the door and walk on the estate without even getting into your car. Walk up the Mendick hill, walk to the Covenanters grave, do a two hour circuit on the old drove roads to West Linton and back or just walk to the pub (an hour and a half ) and get a taxi back!)
