Fabulous place, very friendly, lovely landlady and nice chatty man (sorry didn't get your name) with his beautiful black lab. Great ales and fantastic food (Steak Pie is lovely). Very welcoming pub and set in a beautiful village with it's own microbrewery ... very good. Really worth a visit (and have meal - Steak and Ale Pie). Interesting setting and pics to look at around the place too. Fab.

Oh boy, what a great Pub that we found by coincidence. Nicely decorated and very kind service 🥰. The food was really good and also the crumble was very Yummi 🤤 always nice to be surprised by something that special when you don’t expect it. Also did we meet great folks there and had a chat. As this was our last evening in the UK 🇬🇧 it made our last night very special to us

Great pub run by the locals . Beers served are from the Hesket Newmarket Brewery located next to the pub. A nice unspoilt inn within a lovely fellside village. Check the opening times as they have been closed over lunch when I have passed by over the last few years.
