If you’re looking for the ideal country pub for good food, a friendly atmosphere and the perfect place to stay overnight, then the Carpenters Arms fits the bill in every way. With beautiful walks nearby and a dog-friendly bar, they’re ideal for walkers and anyone visiting this iconic landscape.
They’ve been an Arkell’s pub for 136 years, and the venerable Arkell’s brewery can be found just a few miles away. They stock a range of Arkell’s legendary beers. Arkell’s use only the best malted barley and the finest grown hops to produce an exceptional ale. However, wine and spirit drinkers are not left out: they also stock some mellow whiskies and fine wines from around the world.
At the Carpenters Arms, you can eat tasty, home-cooked food every day of the week from their large and varied menu. If you’re just a bit peckish, choose one of their tasty light-bites. If you’re after a filling dish, order from their menu of generously-sized main meals and puddings. Waitress service and a pleasant restaurant area complete the experience, a proper sit-down meal in a convivial pub atmosphere.
The nine en-suite bedrooms are spacious, comfortable and good value. Rooms are situated on the ground floor looking onto a private courtyard and away from the road, everything you need for a peaceful night’s rest. With a traditional pub and great food on your doorstep, they offer a welcome change from the usual corporate chains. All rooms are fitted with a TV, Freeview, hairdryer, free WiFi, tea and coffee making facilities and fresh towels and linen.
