There's a new staff member in the window of our shop this month! Settle town runs the annual Flowerpot Festival this time of year and it's well worth taking a wonder around town. Thanks so much to our friends Mel and Vic who kindly made this for us.

One of Yorkshire’s big hiking challenges is right on our doorstep.

For several years now Large Outdoors has been guiding groups around the Yorkshire Three Peaks route, a 25-mile circuit that takes in the county’s highest peaks, Whernside, Pen-y-ghent and Ingleborough.

So what’s it like?

Well, there’s no getting away from the fact that the Yorkshire Three Peaks is a challenge, not just because of the mileage involved but also the 5,249ft of ascent and descent that walkers will need to tackle. Plus there’s a 12-hour cut off point to complete the journey.
