The falls can get really busy with people mooching. Try and avoid weekends and holidays if this bothers you. Would recommend starting a walk away from the falls and adding them to the walk , then you can utilise the cafe

Redmire Force Waterfalls

Highlight • River

A fabulous series of three small cascading waterfalls. Easy to look at right there from the south bank of River Ure; places like this are a sustenance for the soul. There are easy spots here to sit down on the grass or rocks to enjoy this spectacle and slow the life down.
