Week and Weekend Trip – Dufton and the North PenninesWednesday 12th - Sunday 16th June 2024We will be staying approx. 20 minutes drive away from Dufton at Greengill Bunk Barn, in the pretty village of Morland in the Eden valley. It’s quite a luxurious bunk barn with a large central recreation room with comfy sofas, armchairs, pool table, table tennis and darts. It sleeps 16 in two bunk rooms of 8. There’s a fully equipped kitchen, 3 showers and 3 toilets, and free unlimited WiFi. Only 4 parking spaces though!www.greengillholidays.co.uk Greengill Barn, Penrith CA10 3AX I would propose that we eat at the local village pub on the first night, self-cater for two nights and on the final night eat at the Stag at Dufton. This gives a full day each for travelling up and back - though of course we could always find a short local walk on the Sunday if that's what you want! The walks would be 3 day walks, with shorter options for those not so keen on the longer options. My ideal programme for the three days would be: Day 1. HIgh Cup Nick circuit (or out and back for the shorter route, the participants can decide when to turn back once they've had a glimpse of the Nick itself). This would be around 10 miles and 1800ft of ascent starting from the centre of Dufton village where there is ample parking and takes in the marvellous geological wonder of the Nick. Please note the change of dates from the original YHA option. The estimated cost, based on an occupancy of 10 would be around £195 for group travel and £125 for independents, with an £100 deposit per person. Obviously this will go down if we have more than 10 participants. |
