About Keld...
Keld is a small village in idyllic Upper Swaledale located at the crossing point of the Coast to Coast, Pennine Way, Herriot Way, Pennine Journey & Swale Way long distance walks. Keld is half way on the 24 mile Swale Trail circular mountain cycle path. https://cyclethedales.org.uk/swaletrail/ Keld also has a tearoom, community orchard and heritage centre.
There are six spectacular waterfalls just five minutes walk from our guest house, with seating to enjoy picnics or just take in the views. There are also numerous walks, including a hike to Tan hill, the highest pub in Great Britain (4 miles) or the Yorkshire Shepardess who serves cream teas in summer (2 miles) https://www.yorkshireshepherdess.com/stay-or-visit/cream-teas/ Our particular favourite is the circular walk along the River Swale to Muker. We enjoy a pint and pub lunch in the Farmers Arms before walking back http://www.farmersarmsmuker.co.uk/
