The Falcon Inn - Arncliffe

Falcon pub Arncliffe

This photograph shows The Falcon Inn, a pub in the small village of Arncliffe in Littondale in the Yorkshire Dales national park.

I love The Falcon Inn, for many reasons including its location and the fact that it is a nice walk over the moors from Malham. I love this walk, Malham is a very busy tourist hotspot not far from Skipton, but walk over the moor towards Arncliffe and a few hundred yards out and you will see perhaps a handful of people on the entire walk.

Another reason I love The Falcon is that is a really unusual pub not just here in Yorkshire but perhaps nationally also. The pub has no pumps, they serve beer from the barrel via a jug. Lastly the location is very beautiful with the small River Skirfare flowing nearby through Littondale to join the river Wharfe.
