“Whether you are looking to stay with us for just one night or you are looking for base [sic] to explore the Yorkshire Dales for a few days, we offer a wide range of accommodation to suite [sic] all types of parties. Stay in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales next door to the strange [sic] place in the world!” That last sentence has to one of the oddest advertising pitches we’ve come across so far, but perhaps it’s an oblique reference to the region’s reputation as a raptor persecution hot spot and antiquated attitudes to killing the local wildlife: North Yorkshire is after all blighted by grouse moors and is consistently named as the worst county in England for crimes against birds of prey? But, no, The Saddle Room has no issues with shooting, as a page devoted to the ‘Shooting Party‘ (a truly grim coupling of images) reveals. And with its pitch for ‘whatever your budget’, The Saddle Room makes clear that as long as you’re here to kill, you’re going to be welcome…
