Yorkshire Dales, Richmond, Thwaite

Tuesday September 16th 2025

To Richmond for lunch then an amble around this attractive market town. 

The weather is warm and sunny and everything is very relaxed though we know rain is coming for the next few days.

The walk is Walking World ID:1079 and takes in the banks of the River Swale and east to Easby Abbey. At a little over three miles it begins and ends at the old station, now repurposed as a café and cinema plus a number of small workshops and studios for artists, artisans and bakers.


Kearton Guesthouse


The weather remains fine as we drive on to our accommodation in Thwaite, Swaledale: Kearton guesthouse. The half dozen rooms are comfortable and our evening meal from a reasonably varied menu is very good. 

This is the centre for some very good walking, as the number of holiday cottages in this small community suggests. It must be very quiet in the winter.
