• Walkers pub with accommodation in the Dales

  After a glorious walk over the moors in blazing sunshine we made our way down a valley to end up in the chocolate box village of Kettlewell. One of those "how amazing is this" moments. A kitten ran down the lane straight to me to be picked up I kid you not. We meandered round the corner and were delighted to find a wonderful pub (with rooms). The sun was blazing so we sat outside and had the chef's game pie with wild boar, pheasant and venison. Lovely. Just what we needed before a four mile walk down the lanes back to Kilnsey.Chicken fillet glazed with Smoked applewood cheeseSet on a pool of tomato and basil sauce £8.9514oz Grilled Gammon Steak (sourced locally)Grilled & served with two free range eggs on top or pineapple slices. £8.25Our Speciality Sausages Of The WeekSee our "Specials Board" for details.
