“We are based in a truly stunning little dales town, Richmond, which is very popular with walkers,” says Wendy Patch, who has worked here for almost 30 years. “People often call in as they pass by on the coast-to-coast walk, and we publish the invaluable coast-to-coast accommodation guide(coasttocoastguides.co.uk). We stock a wide range of maps and co-run an annual walking and book festival.”
