Cleveland Way info/advice needed.....
« on: 22:22:51, 11/02/08 »
Hello,

I am planning on walking the Cleveland way to celebrate my 40th birthday and to raise some money for charity. I would welcome any advice and tips and recommendations of places to stay. I am starting at Helmsley and walking that route.... I am at present trying to find somewhere to stay that is nr Carlton Bank which I aim to reach on my 3rd day.

Anyway, feel free to respond and I will be very grateful for your assistance.

cheers Peter

There is a big thread on this in another section "North Yours Moors".

There is a place called Lord Stones Cafe that have a huge field out the back of it, if you ring up and ask they will help you out.

PS The food at this place is unreal, i was there on Saturday, and check this out, Pint costs £1.

I was at lord stones the other day too.

Yup a pint of Johns for a quid O0
And the hot chocolate goes down real well too, you get marshmallows and everything.

Fantastic place, I plan to stay there too, I think if you use the cafe then you can camp for free

Not that I'm remotely interested in cheap beer, but where exactly is is pub?  I mean, if you could be precise, that would be great.
Not that it bothers me , of course, but I wouldnt want to mess up the navigation on this one.... :P


I'm just curious, thats all.....

Can you camp nearby?


.......A quid!?..   Eck!!.... O0 O0 O0 ;D

the grid reference is NZ524030 matey, precise enough O0

I think you camp actually on the field next to the cafe, not too sure, I meant to ask last time I was there but it was really busy, someone else might know though

Yes its is just off the road when you come down from Carlton Bank. The camping area is around the back of Lord Stones Cafe.

I have seen quite a few posts saying 5 days is feasable for the Cleveland Way, were did people camp at when doing the walk.
