YRC Huts

The club has two properties fondly referred to as ‘huts’ which can be booked by members and bona-fide guests: one in the Yorkshire Dales and the other in the Lake District.

Lowstern
Low Hall Garth

LOWSTERN is our purpose-built headquarters in the Yorkshire Dales. The cottage is considered to be one of the the finest premises for cavers, climbers and walkers in the Dales. Lowstern is in a secluded position in a small wood surrounded by farmland about half a mile from Clapham village, North Yorkshire. It is ideally placed for access to Ingleborough and its caves and potholes, with the other caving areas of Craven just a short drive away.

LOW HALL GARTH is our hut in the Lake District. Known affectionately as LHG, it is an old farmstead cottage situated above Little Langdale Tarn in a delightful and secluded position. It is owned by the National Trust and leased to the YRC. The Coniston fells can be reached directly from the cottage, as can those around Great Langdale by a rather longer walk across Wrynose Pass.

Hut Booking Terms and Conditions

As with all huts, there are some straightforward Terms and Conditions which each hirer must agree on behalf of all members of their party to before we can accept their booking.

Kindred Clubs and BMC/MS Huts

YRC Members have access to a range of huts across the UK belonging to kindred clubs at reduced reciprocal rights rates. These are listed on the Reciprocal Rights Huts page.
