Scarr House

Active Adventure

Go as you please.
The area offers a whole variety of walks - some tough terrain over the fells and across 'the tops', gentler territory by rivers, streams and beck. For most walks, no special skills are required.
Proprietors Syd & Heather Carter keep large scale maps of the area and can advise you and help you to plan your route.

Typical Day

Is up to you. Breakfast at 8.30 am: fresh and dried fruits, cereals, full English or alternatives if you prefer, home-made rolls, honey, marmalade....then head for the hills or head for the lounge to make a more leisurely start to the day.
If you're not in the mood for walking there are many. many places to explore by car: ancient castles at Middleham, Richmond and Castle Bolton, old abbeys, historic houses... You can see traditional rope-making and cheesemaking in Hawes, pottery, painting, glass-blowing, jewellery-making amongst other crafts around the Dales, learn the skills and traditions of the dales farmer at the Dales Countryside Museum, explore caves and landmarks....you will never be short of things to do.
