Discover the Coast to Coast from The Old Vicarage

Guests at The Old Vicarage are perfectly placed to experience one of the UK’s most iconic long-distance walking routes - the Coast to Coast Walk.

Passing through the heart of Swaledale, this much-loved National Trail offers an unforgettable way to explore the beauty of the Yorkshire Dales on foot, with sweeping views, peaceful valleys and a rich sense of walking heritage at every turn.

Recent investment in the route, highlighted in coverage by BBC News, has brought improved waymarking and signage to the trail, including the stretch close to The Old Vicarage - making it even easier to follow and enjoy.

Whether you’re walking the full Coast to Coast or simply exploring sections of the route during your stay, The Old Vicarage offers the perfect base. Guests can choose to break their journey and enjoy a few days of rest and relaxation, or take advantage of the many nearby footpaths to experience the landscape at their own pace.

After a day on the hills, return to the comfort of The Old Vicarage - unwind in the pool, sauna or steam room, relax in the Jacuzzi, and enjoy the peace and privacy of this exceptional setting in the Yorkshire Dales.

For those seeking a truly special walking escape, we invite you to book your stay and experience the Coast to Coast with the comfort, space and indulgence of The Old Vicarage.
