Swale Farm is a real stay in Muker, 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.

Five and a half miles and about two and three quarter hours down the Swale from Muker, over the swaying footbridge at Ramps Holme and along the riverside to the single high arch of Ivelet Bridge, returning on the walled track along the lower slope of Muker Side; the riverside is flat and easy, the return track stony. Start at the Muker village car park behind the Farmers Arms, which is small and fills by mid-morning in summer. The Swale gives good drinking the whole way and there is a broad shingle bank near Ivelet where a dog can swim, though the pool under the bridge itself is deep and the current pulls, and meadows and pasture are grazed throughout so the lead stays on; the walls between Muker and Ramps Holme are crossed by the same brutally narrow squeeze stiles as the Thwaite path, and a big dog will need lifting through several of them.
Six and a quarter miles and around three and a half hours: flagged meadow paths out of Muker, a riverside track up the Swale past Crackpot Hall and Swinner Gill, then the Pennine Way back over the flank of Kisdon Hill. Park in the village car park behind the Farmers Arms; there is no other parking in Muker and the lane in is single track. The famous hay meadows are reached through a series of very narrow stone squeeze stiles that a broad-chested Labrador or a bull breed simply will not fit through, so this is a walk for slim or liftable dogs; sheep graze the whole route, so keep dogs on the lead throughout and take care above the drops at Kisdon Force.
Nobody has written one for Swale Farm. If you have been with the dog, you would be the first — and the first review is the one everybody reads.
