Cyclists' cafe and cakery at Fremington, a five-minute walk from Reeth across the Swale. The cafe is dog friendly and people friendly, with upwards of twenty-five home-baked cakes on display most days and seating inside, in the courtyard or on the lawn. Open daily; note dogs cannot stay in the accommodation pods.
These are the parts only the business can add. We check the dog policy and stamp the date — photos, prices and their own words are theirs to put in, and this listing is waiting for them.
The room, the terrace, the table the dog fits under.
A few dishes and what they cost.
Can the dog actually sleep here, and what does it cost.
Inside or terrace only, and whether that changes at lunch.
Claiming fills every box above, and lets you reply to reviews when they open. £15 a month, no contract, and it never changes the verdict — the stamp stays ours.
A big ten-and-a-half-mile day with 339 metres of climbing, four and a half hours over open heather moor scarred by old lead workings, then farmland and a mile of riverside back to the village. Start on the cobbled green in front of the Black Bull and the Kings Arms in Reeth, where there is free parking and the Little White Bus serves Richmond. The moorland is open access land, so dogs must be on a short lead from 1 March to 31 July for ground-nesting grouse and curlew, and sheep are on the moor and the in-bye all year; the Swale at the end is the best paddle on the route, but it runs fast after rain.
Reeth's oldest surviving inn, dating from 1680 and looking out across the great sloping green towards Swaledale. Flagstones, beams and roaring fires, with dogs welcome in the bar area and in most bedrooms. The house rules are clear: short lead, on the floor, not on the seating or your lap.
Coaching inn dating from 1760 at the top of Reeth's sloping green, a favourite with coast-to-coasters crossing Swaledale. The bar is busy and reliably dog friendly, food is served all day in the bar area, and dogs are welcome to stay in the en-suite rooms if flagged at booking. Fremington Edge and the Swale swing bridge walks start nearby.
Nobody has written one for Dales Bike Centre Cafe. If you have been with the dog, you would be the first — and the first review is the one everybody reads.
