We stayed for 2 nights only. One room was spacious the other small, too small really if you had a lot of luggage. Food is quick pub grub. Good range of beers. What stands out is the exceptional personal service. Breakfast very good.

This is a bar review. The best parts of the building are now part of the hotel, the 'public bar' being in what I thought was an uninspiring extension at the rear, totally without soul. There is a decent sitting out area side by the beck. The selection of beers though was good. Don't know if food was available. At... More

Superb hosts, very friendly and helpful staff. Spectacular views from the room, pub and breakfast area. Good breakfast, a variety of foods on offer including vegetarian options. Very good pub food and amazing ales. A great base for walking and a comfortable place to come back to at the end of ones travels.

After a long 10 mile walk a group of us descended upon The Fish Hotel. We immediately had problems as there was a no dog policy. Strange given the locality and amount of walkers with dogs.

However last week was the first time that I experienced staying there. 3 nights of Bed & Breakfast. The room was well appointed, clean and well managed. The staff were very polite and friendly. I have stayed... More

We went in for a drink and a possible meal after a great walk in the hills. First they dont allow dogs, which we can understand where they are serving food, but why dont they have a 'walkers' bar where you can accept dogs and muddy boots? The greeting from the barman was unfriendly, and the bar was akin to... More

We came across this place during our walk. It is the perfect location. The food is great and the the place is clean and well maintained. No dogs allowed though, if you have one the pub next door allows them.

Terrible attitude and very short sighted manager.Never again!Went for a drink with extended family including children.Drinks overpriced,service awful but if you mention it you are made to feelthey don't care anyway.
