Heather, steam trains and stone villages. Big skies, big walks, and pubs that have been drying dogs by the fire since long before it was a marketing decision.

Pub DOGS WELCOME

Birch Hall Inn

Beck Hole · YO22 5LE
No reviews yet

A tiny, lovingly preserved timewarp pub in a steep wooded cleft below Goathland: two age-old bars with a sweet shop wedged between them and a terraced garden above the beck. Dogs are welcome, and the landlady is known to make a fuss of them. Food is gloriously simple - local pork pies, butties, scones and the famous Beck Hole Beer Cake.

Livestock — leads on

Acklam has no pub, no shop and no public car park, but it does have a signposted field path north to Leavening, and this two-mile round out and lane back is the whole of the village's walking. Leave by Kirk Balk, pick up the footpath at the sign on the south side, cross two arable fields on a grass headland, and drop into Leavening by Beck Lane. Come back down Whin Hill and Kirk Balk. The lane sections are national speed limit with no footway and hedges to the verge in places, so it is a short-lead walk on tarmac and a longer-lead walk on the field path.

Off-lead allowed Livestock — leads on

A relaxed 4.4-mile loop with only 70 metres of ascent, under two hours, on lanes, field paths and the wooded valley below the abbey where the old monastic fish ponds sit; easy going but muddy along the pond path after rain. Start in Ampleforth village, where there is roadside parking, and the abbey's own visitor car park is available when the tea room is open. The ponds and the beck give water and the field paths take a dog off the lead for good stretches, but the abbey and college grounds are private and working farmland here holds sheep, so lead up at every gate.

Off-lead allowed Livestock — leads on

Five and three quarter miles with 220 metres of ascent and about two and a half hours, rising directly out of the village onto Spaunton Moor to the tall stone cross at Ana Cross and returning over Lastingham Knoll; the climb is steep for the first half mile and the moor path is peaty and wet in the hollows. It starts at St Mary's church in Lastingham, whose Norman crypt is worth ten minutes before you set off, and parking is limited to a handful of roadside spaces so an early arrival matters at weekends. The village springs and the moor becks provide water, and the moor is wide open ground for a dog that will come back, but sheep graze the village and the whole moor freely, and leads are needed on the open moor from 1 March to 31 July for ground-nesting birds.

A short 3.1-mile round with a stiff 190 metres of ascent and about an hour and a half, climbing out of Scugdale to the little sandstone outcrops of Barker's Crags and returning by the bracken slope of Stoney Wicks; short but sharp, and the bracken path is narrow and overgrown by August. It starts at Scugdale Hall at the head of the dead-end lane out of Swainby, where there is very limited verge parking, so if it is full drop back to Huthwaite Green a mile down the valley. Scugdale Beck gives clean water at the bottom, the upper slopes are open moor for a dog to range, but the crags are popular with climbers and have unprotected drops, sheep graze the whole valley and the moor edge, and leads are needed on the moor from 1 March to 31 July.

The proper walk out of Barton-le-Willows heads north-east on the lane past the last farm, then leaves the tarmac at Barton Fields for a green farm track carrying a public footpath most of the way to Crambe. It drops steadily off the Howardian foothills towards the Derwent, with the ground opening out and Crambe's eleventh-century church tower ahead. Crambe itself is a dozen houses, a church and no shop, so bring your own water. Kirkham Priory is a further mile north up the lane from Crambe: English Heritage lists it among its dog-friendly places, entry is free and it is open any reasonable daylight hours, with free parking outside the gate.

Livestock — leads on

Two Howardian foothill hamlets a mile and a bit apart, joined by a single-track lane with grass verges and almost no traffic. The route leaves Barton-le-Willows westward past the pond end of the village, drops onto Butts Lane and then climbs gently south-west on the unfenced lane over Barton Hill to the green at Harton. It is all metalled public highway, so there are no stiles, no gates and no field boundaries to argue with, but it is also unpavemented and used by tractors and milk lorries, so this is a lead walk rather than a running-free walk. The verges are wide enough to step onto for the whole distance and there is a long view north to the Howardian ridge from the high point.

Every listing here carries the date a human confirmed it. Councils change beach rules and pubs change landlords, so when a stamp goes stale we go back rather than quietly leave it up.

Know one we have missed?

Tell us the pub we have not walked into yet.

Local knowledge beats desk research every time. Name the place and we will check it properly — the venue's own policy, confirmed, then stamped and dated like every other listing.

Get the new stamps first.

One short email when we add places or a council changes its beach rules. No noise, easy out.
