A 16th-century country inn perched on the hillside above Rosedale Abbey with panoramic views across the dale. The bar and outdoor terrace are dog friendly, staff keep a jar of dog treats behind the bar, and there are dog-friendly bedrooms for walkers doing the Rosedale round. Moorland and railway-trackbed walks start straight from the door.
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 fire, the snug, the water bowl by the door.
A few dishes and what they cost, so people arrive knowing.
Can the dog actually sleep here, and what does it cost.
Which rooms, which times, whether the whippet gets a biscuit.
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 tea garden on a working hill farm at the very head of Rosedale, reached up the dale road from Rosedale Abbey, with homemade cakes, loose-leaf teas and sausage rolls served against a sweeping valley panorama. Well-behaved dogs are more than welcome in the garden. Arguably the most peaceful cuppa in the National Park, and handy for the ironstone railway trackbed above.
A Flower of May countryside park in the middle of Rosedale Abbey village, ringed by moorland, taking tourers, motorhomes, tents, glamping pods and cottages. Up to two dogs per pitch are welcome by prior agreement, kept on short leads around the park, though they cannot enter the reception, shop or facilities blocks. Chimney Bank and the ironstone railway walks start from the village.
A level four-mile out-and-back from Bank Top car park at the head of Rosedale Chimney Bank, following the trackbed of the Victorian ironstone railway past the monumental ruined calcining kilns, with uninterrupted views down the dale for the entire length. The compacted stone path has no significant gradients, but this is a permissive route across grouse moor: dogs on leads at all times for the sheep and ground-nesting birds. Bleakly beautiful industrial archaeology at its best.
Nobody has written one for The White Horse Farm Inn. If you have been with the dog, you would be the first — and the first review is the one everybody reads.
