Cafe's
I don't know about you but at the end of a walk, OK and start I need a coffee (& cake)
Osmotherley Coffee shop, North York Moors
Right in the heart of the village, literally on the Cleveland Way. Fantastic cakes & lunches. They bake all their own cakes & the chef smokes his own meats. They are the best. Super friendly & welcome your dog too. Closed Tuesday
4 West End, Osmotherley, Northallerton, DL6 3AA

Dales Bike Centre Cafe, Reeth, Yorkshire dales
A couple of hundred metres North of the C2C, well worth those extra 120 to 140 strides either way. Plenty of seating, a good choice of panni & cakes etc.
Park Barn, Fremington, Richmond DL11 6AW
+44 1748 884908
Joiners Shop cafe, Ingleby Arncliffe, North York moors
The C2C passes the front door. Take advantage of this little gem of a cafe, as the rest of your day, is going to be gruelling if on the C2C.
Hot & cold food, cakes, dog friendly
Cross Lane, Ingleby Arncliffe, Northallerton

Lordstone Cafe, Carlton Bank, North York Moors
On the Cleveland Way, nestled in the valley between Carlton Bank & Cringle Moor - both have paragliders when the weather is right. By personal choice not one of my favourites, but your opinion may be different, so included. Dogs only OUTSIDE

Tim Cain MBE, MedicREC Outdoor First Aid Course (16 hours) – North Yorkshire.
The trainer is a member of the Swaledale Mountain Rescue team, and the courses are the best. In my opinion you would need a good basic knowledge of first aid, before attending one of these courses, as they are quite intense, but for anyone leading groups or doing their Mountain Leaders Certificate, absolutely vital.

Mountain Leader Training
This qualification is aimed at people who wish to lead groups walking in the uplands of the UK, however, I can’t recommend it enough for anyone, who wants to learn the skills for being safe in the mountains. Your navigation skills are paramount! You are required to register. Then prior to taking part in the 6 days training session, you need to have completed 20 quality mountain days.
After the training and before the 5 days assessment, you need to have completed at least 40 quality mountain days, including some of those days wild camping. All the requirements and information can be found in the link.
