The Lion Inn, Blakey Ridge

Highlight • Pub

Spectacularly situated at one of the highest points in the North York Moors National Park, the Lion is a 16th-century inn that serves good food and offers bed and breakfast accommodation. Occupying an elevated perch at 1,325 feet (404 m) on Blakey Ridge, the inn enjoys excellent views of Rosedale and Farndale. It's a marvellously remote objective for any walk on the beautiful moors.

Dale Head Farm Tea Garden

Highlight • Cafe

There is a tearoom here at the farm with stunning views of the area - so your feet get to rest, and you relax your mind too! You will see signs on the side of the buildings here, too, to continue to Great Fryup Dale, if that is your plan.
