Sad to see someone jumping off the bridge, but it was a beautiful place to go and visit on a cold, sunny weekend morning. The food from the van was delicious. A few bikers were there too.

A fantastic meeting place for bikers and families alike. I went on my Harley for the first time, parked with all the other bikes on the hottest day of the year so far. The bridge and surrounding river was packed with families and kids swimming in the Lune. It is well worth a visit. There are 2 vans - one for food and the other for ice cream, great for weather like today. The only downside is the amount of speed cameras on the surrounding roads. Totally overkill in places and designed once again to spoil the fun and ensure everyone complies with the ridiculous government in the UK.

Nice ride out to The Devils bridge on our Motorbikes today, stopped at The Devils Bridge and enjoyed a Bacon Butty and cup of tea, both very nice, enjoyed and very welcoming at food van. Very picturesque, Public toilets too

Great spot for a rest, mess about in the river, especially for the young ones. Bikers meet for a break regularly at this spot, and there is parking with toilets on the other side of the bridge, which is PEDESTRIAN ONLY. The parking by the way is FREE, which makes a pleasant change.Thebridge itself is a very tall one and quite a sight from below. There is a nice riverside walk alongside the island, we saw a couple of herons and watched one catch a small fish. The footpaths leads you to the "Radical Steps" 80 plus steps which take you up to the church and the town, but first at the top, turn right to take in the view at "Ruskin's View". A sign at the bottom of the steps says it was originally 46 steps, but I counted over 80, so they've altered them a bit. Well worth a visit.

Nice walk from centre to bridge. Overlooking river. Good for biker stop. Seating along riverbank.

Beautiful place to enjoy the water, climb the rocks, a little stone beach, wildlife. Free parking and big picnic areas to enjoy. A fun afternoon out

Avona Escapes Biker campsite crew went for a ride out to here, loads of bikes and amazing scenery, the roads are twisty and smooth 🙂

Not far from home, so always worth a trip out at any time of year for us. We tend to visit mid-week out of season, but have already been twice this summer! Kirkby Lonsdale Brewery have been going a few years now & certainly know what they're brewing. Our latest favourite is Dark Side of The Lune. But firm favourites are the Jubilee stout, Devils Bridge IPA, 1822 and Crafty mild. Not had our hands on a Radical for a while - must keep trying.. Staff are always chilled, friendly and efficient. Place is spotless, cosy and welcoming. Lovely cosy place to sit in winter and while away an hour or so with a paddle of beers before heading home for tea.

What a great tap room. Super friendly staff and a good selection of locally brewed beers. The food looked good but the dogs were only interested in the beer!!!! The pub is dog friendly

Outstanding selection of modern and traditional craft beers. Nice atmosphere, wonderful staff and lots of seating. Very dog friendly also.

Great atmosphere and great selection of ales, cider and Lager. A must visit and we'll priced. Recommended!

Easily the best place to visit in Kirkby Lonsdale, either for a few drinks with friends or a dinner date. Soft lighting, a gorgeous interior, and a homely vibe. They serve pizzas, flatbreads and other delicious Italian-style options, and they have an impressive range of beers, wines, and spirits. The one downside is the cost: it was £11.70 for two medium glasses of wine. You can get a beer paddle for quite good value, though, so beers are your best bet if your wallet is a factor! Would 100% visit again, perhaps for dinner and perhaps to sit upstairs on their mezzanine style upper floor.

We visited Kirkby Lonsdale for the day and were on the lookout for a local, friendly and lively pub, and we stumbled across the brewery... And they didn't disappoint. The staff were super friendly, a good selection of local beers, the space was big and bright and had a nice feel. If you're in the area I'd definitely swing by for a couple of crafties.

Superb indeed 😉🍺✌️ After featuring in the latest Hairy Bikers BBC series called Go North I simply had to travel there myself and give it a go -- wow indeed -- wonderful place and fantastic beers -- definitely coming back to make a proper video soon #stayhoppy

Amazing! We came in this morning and we felt welcomed. The chocolates were amazing, definitely worth the price! I will for sure be back.

Lovely little chocolate shop with a surprise in the cellar. 👍. A must visit in this lovely market town. Had 5 delicious ice creams from there too.

Popped in to escape the wet weather. The lady was very welcoming and the hot chocolate was the best I’ve ever had! Much better than big names brands and at a fraction of the price!!

Awesome shop. We went for coffee and ended up finding the mine. The kids loved the mine what a gem of a find

Received a lovely box of 18 chocolates but I have no idea what each one is...looked on website recognised a few....not complaining but menu enclosed would be great x just a suggestion x

Lovely quaint clde world shop nestled in Kirby Lonsdale! Fantastic chocolate of ALL types for every palate!😜 and a visit to the "chocolate mine" in the basement....WOW...a must to bring out the inner child! Brilliant...well done!😁😁

Must visit for a chocolate lover, huge range of chocolate, confectionery and even local coffee! Two floors and every bit of space is filled with a different delight. Friendly staff and a surprise downstairs! Great for gifts for those back home or just a pick-me-up.

Built in the 12th century, St Mary’s Church is one of the oldest buildings in Kirkby Lonsdale, its Norman arches and stone walls quietly telling stories of nearly nine hundred years of faith and community. Later Gothic additions in the 14th and 15th centuries give the church its distinctive mix of architectural styles, each age leaving its mark. Inside, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. A corner has been transformed into a small café area, while another area overflows with toys for children—a true community space. Chairs are stacked in corners and although it looks cluttered, it also tells a story of the role it plays as an important family village hub. The church itself remains modest but full of character. Just beyond the entrance stands a large stone font, its surface smooth from centuries of use. It dates from the 14th century, originally from the chapel at Killington, before finding its home here in the 1800s. Other treasures reveal themselves as we wander slowly through the nave: the stained glass windows on the east wall, installed in 1863, casting soft coloured light across the stone floor; the pulpit from the 17th century, and a beautifully carved 13th-century piscina, once used for washing sacred vessels. Banners hang gracefully from the arches, each one representing a sister church in the surrounding When we step back outside, a light drizzle has begun to fall. Umbrellas up, we wander through the pretty shops that line Kirkby Lonsdale’s Main Street—bookshops, galleries, and gift stores filled with small treasures. After a comforting lunch in a cosy café, we can’t resist one last stop at the old-fashioned sweet shop, a place that always seems to belong to another time. With bags of treats in hand and the sound of church bells faintly echoing across the valley, we head back to the car—content, refreshed, and quietly grateful for the simple beauty of the day.

Such a beautiful church and grounds. When we visited, there were fields of daffodils all around, which made for a picturesque visit.

A beautiful old church with parts of the building dating back to the 12th century. The building is often used for local events such as art shows and festivals, the grounds include walking paths, a graveyard and access to the Ruskin’s view path and Radical Steps.

Beautiful church with fabulous views a few minutes away. A place of quiet contemplation.

A beautiful church with parts from the norman era right through to the present day. Well worth a visit.

Traditional church at the heart of Kirby Lonsdale and a stunning view overlooking the river Lune.

12th century church. well looked after and a lot of history, also leads on to Ruskins View and the Radical Steps. Amazing church and grounds

Great little 9 hole golf course with some really good holes and great views. Fantastic under foot considering all the rain recently. Ball wasn't really plugging that much. Greens and fairways in great condition for this very wet year we've had upto now. Facilities are great there's a driving range. A really good 9 hole par3 course and a good cafe with pro shop. Great value for money £22 to play 18 holes . Food was great too a decent menu at fair prices . The 9 hole golf course has 2 par 3s and 1 par 5. For a par of 35. There aren't different tee's or greens for you if you go round twice. But some of the holes are great big dog legs. Not an easy course. I'll be going back. Well worth visit. Good for a day trip. Also has football golf if you're into that I didn't look at this so can't really comment.

My sister & I took our football loving boys to play foot golf. They loved it, lots of laughter, & we enjoyed walking round with them, watching them play, & enjoying the scenery. Nice refreshments in the cafe afterwards, & although we just had drinks & chocolate treats, the food on the menu was a very reasonable price. All the staff we saw were extremely friendly & also the people around playing golf. A fab afternoon, absolutely recommend!

Wonderful little place. My daughter came for her 15th bday with a few friends to play footgolf and have a pizza. Very reasonably priced and the cake (homemade) and coffee was very good :) Friendly staff.

Came across this while out walking in the area. Stopped off for a drink and sat outside in the sunshine 🌞 and stunning views. Members and staff very friendly and made us feel so welcome. Prices very reasonable and we hope to visit again 🙂

The service was alright but didn't really seem to care they gave us 4 clubs to rent and one was broke. There were also two dead birds on the course. The main course was beautiful and some amazing views

This is a great site to play. The par 3 is a lovely introduction with fabulous views. The greens on the par 3 got a bit attacked over the winter by rabbits and birds, but they've worked hard to sort them out and it's back to it's usual standard. It's also true that the course drains very quickly - we've not had an issue yet.

Only visited the cafe as we walked past but so glad we did. The food was lovely as were the staff. We will definately be visiting again on future trips to the area.
