Our first stay on a CL and we loved it at West Leas Farm. Friendly welcome from Catherine and all we needed for a restful three night stay. We struggled a bit with the local footpaths but enjoyed a long walk into (eventually) Ripon. Nice pub there on the river called the Water Rat. Back at the site, all quiet with lovely open views across cow fields, fab sunsets. Free wifi and only a mile to the nearest shop for basics and newspapers. Tried the Galphy Arms and the pub in Kirkby Malzead. Both friendly though limited opening hours. Enjoyed an afternoon in Masham with a pint in the White Bear. The sun shone all weekend. Thanks!
