The Tan Hill Inn

Birthday celebration! The most wonderful overnight stay at Tan Hill. Cosy double bedroom overlooking rugged moorland. Friendly staff and great pub food classics. Open fires with gales blowing outside, felt safe and warm. There was a wedding celebration and we got invited into the barn for dancing into the wee hours. Thoroughly enjoyed hearty full English breakfast following morning. 5* stay.

Character pub in a unique, isolated, and beautiful location, unfortunately, that all it has going for it. We attended a tribute band act, which was very good and had a meal in the pub which was overpriced and very average quality, the service was also terrible. We ordered 2 steak pies, 1 with mash and garden peas, and 1 with chips and mushy peas, quite a simple order me thinks, but apparently not !!!!! The food arrived and was abruptly plonked on our table by a rude waitress who turned on her heels before we could even realise the food was wrong, both had chips and mushy peas instead of 1 chips and mushy and 1 mash and garden peas. She walked away without asking if we would like any sauces, etc. I had to go to the far side of the pub to get some vinegar. There was no check back to see if all was ok. In summary, it is in a great location, but it's very expensive and serves average food at best with poor service to top it off, we will not be returning and would not reccomend it.

During walking The Pennine Way I planned a stop her. To sleep, drink,eat. Wonderfull place with fireplaces. Nice room for live music thu-sat. Really nice People, good choises of different beurs, good food. I slept in the bunkroom. It was clean, new, good washroom. Will go back for sure if I'm in north England
