Popular with locals and tourists alike, Peak Hotel is a cosy, traditional & bustling pub located in Castleton at the head of its most beautiful area, the Hope Valley. Very olde world pub restaurant/hotel, very welcoming, staff very friendly, food was exceptional, very good menu good selection, good specials board, seating was very comfortable, warm and cosy inside as located in a very bleak part of the yorkshire moors, a bit off the beaten track. If you fancy a trip in snowy weather, it would be wise to call ahead – it is far from unknown for The Lion to get cut off, and previous years have seen staff digging tunnels through drifts to the front door! The pub’s lunch and dinner menus are extensive without being pretentious (if you’ve just rambled the five miles from Rosedale Abbey or cycled on the thigh-sapping, heart-thumping narrow road from Westerdale, it’s wholesome fare and fine ale you crave, not nouvelle cuisine).

Really friendly welcome, cosy pub and lovely food. Excellent service, good beer & the dinner was lovely a proper Sunday lunch, plate was full & the gravy was lovely. Vauxhall main dealers,although I was located on the opposite side of the main showroom in the Bedford van/truck dealership. It’s powerful, beautifully designed and comes with everything you need to engage your visitors and increase conversions. Residents can start the day with breakfast served with a twist, while walkers and visitors are welcomed at lunchtime with traditional fayre that’s both comforting and satisfying.

We went on to do other things but when the sale notice went up we knew the time was right. If I see hogget on a menu I’m helpless. Line-caught Whitby cod turns up with steamed greens and a little pile of cockles – such a simple, beautifully executed dish which gives the fish star billing.

The jazz trio Back Door, formed and played a residency at the pub in the 1970s, with the landlord at the time (Brian Jones), even financing one of their albums. The pub lies on the watershed between several valleys (Eskdale, Farndale, Rosedale, Westerdale), and was located at the site of what is believed to be an ancient hostelry. The inn is known for being subjected to extremes of weather, like Tan Hill Inn, also in North Yorkshire. During the ironstone industry boom in Rosedale, it catered mainly for those engaged in the mining industry.

Here are some local Irish pubs if you’re shy about apps

One of them is The Tides In, which also has a lovely terrace overlooking the beach. The on-site restaurant prides itself on using locally-sourced produce in their menu and can accommodate any dietary requirements. The main attraction at Holkham Park is Holkham Hall, a Palladian-style building home to the Earl of Leicester and his family. The closest train station is at Sheringham almost 20 miles away, so it’s best to drive. Knaresborough is home to picturesque cobblestone streets, lovely tea rooms and attractions such as Knaresborough Castle. It is the perfect day trip from Leeds, as it is a 35 minute drive or a 45 minute train ride.

The mushrooms were spot on as well, with the garlic sauce tasty but not overpowering. The creamy cheese combined beautifully with the sweet cranberry. On ordering we were warned there might be a wait as it was a busy Saturday night but in no time at all our starters – a deep fried brie with a cranberry side and button mushrooms with a garlic dip – were on our plate. If you are ever driving on the roads of the North York Moors and spot people with cumbersome backpacks you might think they are walkers, campers or lovers of the great outdoors.

The Lion Inn seems 100 years from civilisation yet is only half-an-hour from burgeoning Teesside and is one of the main stops on the Coast To Coast leisure route from the North Sea to the Irish Sea. These days, the area is extremely popular with walkers. The mines had petered out by the beginning of the 20th Century but the pub then developed the tourism and day-tripping side of trade to great effect. The building has been extended at various times over its 450 years (it’s believed to have been first settled by the Order of Crouched Friars “to relieve their poverty”), but from the inside, certainly, you can’t see the join between the centuries. The Lion Inn could be described as being in the middle of nowhere, but even on an overcast Wednesday lunchtime there’s a quiet hum of conversation from an impressive – and impressed – collection of customers. Next up for me was a main of T-bone steak with a gargantuan (I’ve still got the thesaurus open) pile of chips, and peas, and onion rings, and mushrooms – and salad.
