A belated Happy New Year to you all! New Years Day seems a distant memory! I hope whatever you got up to during the break was relaxing and enjoyable.
We always try and get out between Christmas and New Year. This time we headed to Brimham Rocks near Harrogate, North Yorkshire. I had never been before but Mr D has suggested going on more than one occasion. When it was mentioned again with the addition of how dog friendly it was, a date was set.
Brimham Rocks is a fairly accessible place with a path going through some of the rock formations to the visitor centre (unfortunately closed on our visit). After that there are tracks to some of the outlying rocks. There was still snow on the ground which meant that both ourselves and Fizz remained fairly mud free. We walked around, throwing snowballs for Fizz, before heading to one of the outer formations to escape the many families who were also taking advantage of the bright day.
After a couple of hours exploring we headed back into Harrogate where Mr D treated me to a Morrisons cafe lunch. He knows how to treat a girl!
p.s. We seem to have lost our camera charger between leaving our holiday cottage on the Isle of Lewis and home. These and subsequent posts are using photos from our phones until a new charger is purchased!
I'm jealous, I love Brimham Rocks. It was one of my favourite day trips when I was growing up (we lived in York).
ReplyDeleteI can imagine its a great place to go when young! There were loads of families who were exploring and climbing on the rocks.... a proper adventure!
DeleteIt looks a fab place to explore and you had a lovely day for it too. :-)
ReplyDeleteIt was bright but with nice nip in the air! Took a flask of coffee and a biscuit or two to drink in the car for before and after.
