The room seemed quite basic. Its decor looked dated. a thorough update would improve things considerably. i also had an issue with the shower. It dripped constantly throughout the night. the experience wasn't terrible, but some attention to detail would make a big difference.

pleasant pub stay
friendly staffcozy roompoor flow
the staff were friendly, and the pub food was great. the room was cozy, clean, and comfortable (it was like a home away from home). i especially appreciated the separate entrance to the hotel rooms, so i didn't need to walk through the pub.
the shower had poor water flow. i also wish there was a notice clarifying that breakfast is not served on weekdays.

Comfortable stay near West Pennine Moors
great locationample parkingfantastic food
I found the location excellent, especially its proximity to the West Pennine Moors. The atmosphere gave off a friendly, local village vibe. Parking was ample, and the food was fantastic. Victoria, the pub manager, stood out as cute and accommodating when I arrived late due to traffic.
The family room bed was a 4ft bed and a single bed, and the room itself felt quite cold.
