This is a lovely pub with lovely staff and fab food. Breakfast was excellent.
Just a bit out of Brampton than I realised but saying that, the surrounding area was really scenic.

2 night family stay. We were warmly greeted and shown to our comfortable accommodation. There was a wide choice on the menu for evening meals and the food was plentiful and tasty. The staff were friendly efficient and helpful. Breakfast was excellent. The Inn is set in a small quiet village with nice walks nearby

The room was a good size and comfortable. The bathroom was functional. The breakfast was very good and the staff were friendly. The location is excellent. The only area we would change is the dinner menu. The food was reasonably priced with an emphasis on deep fried. Some more healthy options would enhance the offering.

Great staff and a very warm, friendly and efficient check-in. A great touch, much appreciated, was a table was booked for me incase I wanted to dine in.
My room was in a small annex to the Blacksmith Arms. It is generously termed by estate agents as cosy. The bathroom was far larger and included a bath and separate shower. All was clean with a generous application of bleach. The room was very quiet except for the occasional screech of either pheasant or peacock. I couldn't make my mind up which.
Meals were a good portion but not much choice for those growing number of people who prefer not to eat bits of dead animal.
Meal with drink and starter around £25.
Very quiet village with the blacksmith the only real attraction.
