Greystones is a place to stay in Buckden. It is listed here so you know it is there, but we have not yet established whether dogs are welcome — so there is no verdict on this page and no stamp. If it is your business, claim the page and tell us, and we will stamp it.
Greystones is a real stay in Buckden, and it is here so you know it exists. But we have not been able to find a dog policy for it that we would stand behind, so we are not going to guess at one. No verdict, no stamp, no date.
If this is your business, tell us whether dogs are welcome and we will put a stamp on it — free, and it stays free. Tell us your dog policy. Want the whole page — photos, prices, your own words? Claim this listing.
If you have been and you know the answer, tell us and we will go and confirm it.
Photos, a sample menu and prices, any room details and the venue’s own house rules will appear here once the business claims this listing. Until then, what you see above is what we’ve checked and verified ourselves.
Claiming lets you add all of that and reply to reviews in your own name, right underneath them. £12.99 a month, no contract, and it never changes the verdict — the stamp stays ours.
Seven miles and some 500 metres of ascent, five hours or so, up Buckden Rake and the old lead mine track to the 702-metre summit, south along the wall to the Polish airmen's memorial cross, then down to Starbotton and back on the Dales Way. The top is peat bog and can be genuinely wet and featureless in cloud; start from the National Park car park in Buckden, the last reliable parking in upper Wharfedale. This is fell walking with sheep on every part of it, and the summit plateau is open access land where dogs must be on a short lead from 1 March to 31 July; there is no water on the ridge at all, so carry your own for the dog and top up at Buckden Beck on the way up.
Seven miles and about three and three quarter hours, climbing the old Roman line of Buckden Rake to the waterfalls at Cray, then following a three-mile limestone terrace west to Yockenthwaite before coming back down the Dales Way along the young Wharfe through Hubberholme. Park in the National Park car park in Buckden, which is the only sensible parking in upper Wharfedale; the 72 bus from Grassington terminates here on the days it runs. Cray Gill and the Wharfe both give excellent water and there are safe shallow pools for a swim at Hubberholme, but sheep are on the Rake and the terrace all year and there are cattle in the Langstrothdale fields so the dog stays on the lead; gates handle most of the wall crossings, though the riverside path near Hubberholme has two tight squeeze stiles a broad dog will need lifting through.
Five gentle miles in two and a half hours along the floor of Langstrothdale on the Dales Way, past Hubberholme's Norman church to the Bronze Age stone circle at Yockenthwaite, returning on the opposite bank of the infant Wharfe. Almost flat, on grass and stone paths, and one of the few upper Wharfedale walks that stays sensible on a hot day; start at the National Park car park in Buckden. The Wharfe here is broad, shallow and clean with gravel bars every few hundred yards, which makes it the best dog-swimming water in the dale, but the fields are grazed by sheep the whole way and the wall crossings are Dales stone stiles, several of them tight squeezes without a dog gate.
Nobody has written one for Greystones. If you have been with the dog, you would be the first — and the first review is the one everybody reads.
