Liked: Very friendly staff, availability of clean toilet and shower 24hrs, food in the pub was home cooked and plentiful. It was in a good location for exploring the dales
Disliked: Not a criticism of the pub but the weather! The grass was quite soggy still and not wanting to get stuck we parked in the carpark which was still fine.

Liked: Lovely well positioned pub stop over very close to all the favourite spots in the High Peaks. Great hosts so very helpful and friendly. Nice pub and food. Little on-site shop for basic essentials Good small level site with facilities and available after pub hours. Road was a little busy but site far enough away.
