Your Stay at The Willows

From the moment you arrive you will feel like a family member. Johanne and Steve are keen to ensure that you feel at home at the Willows.

PLEASE for Your Safety and Enjoyment: Make sure you prepare and pack for the unexpected, as thecurrent severe weather in the Yorkshire Dales can be unpredictable, even on the sunniest days. A list of recommended equipment etc can be found in any good walking book or the internet. Please use a check-list and tick off as you pack. Horton village is very small and it only has one shop and the Pen-y-ghent cafe. These do not carry a great deal of walking gear if you forget anything.

The Horton-in-Ribblesdale village pubs provide great dinners for all creatures great and small. For famous TV, film locations and historic sites, see our Attractions page. Breakfast at the Willows is what you expect from a quality bed and breakfast that caters for walkers, climbers, travellers and others with healthy appetites.

We also do a tasty, substantial and healthy packed lunch. (£6 p/p)

Bag Forwarding Service and other Facilities:
For those of you on long walks or cycle rides such as the Pennine Way, or Land's End to John O'Groats, we can deliver your bags on to the next local destination if required. (£6 per bag - min 2 bags)

We also offer a small item laundry service if required. (small fee)

There is a secure lock-up where motorbikes, bicycles and other equipment can be safely stored.

A sports / holistic therapist can visit in-house for treatments and to aid your recovery. Soothing pamper massages are also available for ladies who just want to relax and enjoy a touch of luxury at The Willows.

Parents with young children are very welcome. There is an excellent large playing field and swing park just across the road, with swings and a zip slide, that have been tested and enjoyed by previous children who stayed at The Willows. Sorry, we do not permit any dogs.

**NB You can contact the nearby Langcliffe Kennels and Cattery**

Please let us know if you have any special requests or requirements.

Free Wi-Fi Internet in All Rooms

Allergies - Please note, we have a dog and cat on the premises.

Why Rush It?

If you are traveling along the Pennine Way, please try to avoid arriving in HOT-SPOTS like Horton-in-Ribblesdale during weekends. You may find it difficult to book accommodation, as the Yorkshire 3 Peak people and those having fun on the Settle Castlebergh Crag / Castleberg Crag will usually have pre-booked week-ends well in advance.

For those of you who are attempting the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge and drive here, we would recommend that you sleep here the night before your challenge, that way you will be able to start early, without having to race to Horton from your home.

Previous guests also recommend that you recover at the Willows before you drive home. The walk is very strenuous and unless you have a very short drive back home, or have a non-walking designated driver, your tiredness may impair your driving. The next morning you can drive back alert and refreshed.
