The Strickland Arms is just the place you want to stay after a hard days cycling. The rooms and the Yurt were immaculately clean and of a very high standard. The food was brilliant and extremely good value for money, everything was homemade especially Penny's pies they were great. Both Anton and Penny couldn't do enough for us were great... More

We stayed at the Strickland Arms for a couple of nights whilst the gang were doing the C2C. Anton and Penny could not have made us feel more welcome, food was excellent, pub is very cosy and inviting. The guys stayed in the Yurt which they loved and we are hoping to return for a girly weekend very soon. Strickland... More

If you want friendly on a whole new level, this is for you. Cosy log burners, great bar with real ale and excellent selection of whisky. Great pub food, well priced wine and very, very friendly. The owners are extremely friendly, as are the staff and locals. Comfortable rooms. To sum up, In three words - friendly, cute, quirky

Stayed in... More
