It's heartwarming to know that there are still people with pure hearts who selflessly help others. The lady at the bar went above and beyond by giving a member of our group a ride to catch the last train without expecting anything in return. Additionally, she provided excellent service in a warm atmosphere, being friendly and professional. I highly recommend going and eat/drink there. Plus, this lady she truly deserves recognition for her exceptional kindness.
I would like to say a massive thank you to the lady working in the pub and her friends who helped us last night! We stuck in the area and desperately needed some help to get to our car that was miles away. She went above and beyond to make sure we made it. And took one of us to the train station. The atmosphere in the pub is just great. Thank you again, and hopefully see you again there :)
PS. Guinness was perfect :)
Lovely pub, coal fire made it really toasty inside. Just the one small cozy room.
Beer was kept well, not a lot of choice but can’t expect to much when in the middle of the dales. Cheaper here for a beer than the station inn a few miles further along the road.
The food is amazingly good - tasty and fresh. The only problem you'll have is deciding which of the fabulous dishes to have.
Located at the foot of Ingleborough, its an ideal base for walking.
The landlady is welcoming and very knowledgable about the area.
After getting lost in the fog and clouds as it was getting dark at the top of the last peak of the Yorkshire Three Peaks, I managed to trace my steps back down to the bottom of the mountain. I was worried as I was the only walker about and didn't know what to do as my car was parked in Horton miles away. The pub was closed when I got there so was starting to panic, but saw people in the kitchen window. I knocked on and they told me to come in. The family all came to say hi and were lovely - they ordered me a taxi, got me a drink and chatted to me till it arrived. Lovely people, lovely place and I don't know what I would have done without them!
It was fantastic to return to this legendary pub (now staying in a motorhome), nestled between the slopes of Whernside and Ingleborough. Now much quieter than in its former glory (though it is only January), it has lost none of its character and charm. We received a very friendly welcome by the landlady, who was extremely helpful throughout. It's a basic site, with EHU, water and a toilet emptying point, all for £20. The beer is lovely, unfortunately opening hours and food were limited, as the host was not too well.
What a gem, feels so untouched by the passage of time. Well worth a stop off for a drink and little look around. Sits on between Wernside and ingelbrough mountains if your on an amble over the peaks so a great break spot.
Stayed at the old Hill inn for 3 nights in the glamping pods. From arrival on the Friday afternoon until departure on the Monday morning we had a fantastic time. Nothing was too much trouble from this family run establishment. Bean and her staff were so kind and friendly and made us feel at home. A well stocked bar and food that was out of this world and cooked to perfection makes this a very special place. I would not hesitate to stay there in the future when we next visit the area. Well done to all the staff.
Lovely traditional pub quite but seems like a good place to get around for a meal & a few drinks while walking in the area, will stay one day, as its very near to many walkable mountains & veiw points.
Its in a good position
We stayed in one of the clamping pods, these are behind the Old Hill Inn with amazing views of Inglebrough and the valley. The pod was clean, comfortable and very practical with everything you needed - toilet, shower, sink, fridge, kettle, toaster, crockery and cutlery. The pub was perfect to have on the doorstep, the food here was absolutely delicious and the puddings were amazing 🤩!
We stayed overnight on the camp site and ate in the pub. The food is amazing and they were the best deserts we'd had in our lives - but then the chef is an award winning patisserie!! Camp site with amazing views of both Ingleborough and Whernside with easy access to a mix of walks in both directions - including to Ribblehead Viaduct. Clean. Friendly. Would stay again.
Lovely old pub on the paths to both Ingleborough and Whernside, with very friendly owners who cook like a dream. Food is excellent, but because of staff shortages, only for residents. Well kept Settle Brewery ales. The pub has suffered because of post Covid staff shortages and the owners have had to cut back their offerings accordingly and the pub is not open all hours. The rooms are comfortable but do need a renovation. Nevertheless, highly recommended.
Great place to stay. I was made very welcome by the host who served up the best food for dinner. A great location if you're looking to do the Three Peaks Challenge!
Just wanted to say a massive thankyou. Yesterday after running the 3 peaks I found myself without enough water. Fortunately after descending Whernside I came across The Old Hill Inn. The owner was very kind enough to fill my bottles.
A Couple of people where sat having a meal and the food looked/ smelt great. I'll defo return next time, in not such a rush, to sit down for a meal and beer.
Thanks again!
This is one lovely old pub, with Fantastic owners. Plenty of room for people who want to camp and right on the doorstep of the Three Peaks walk.
A great selection of Gin and the food is great.
Highly recommend this place, and what a view this little place has.
The only time I wish I could leave more than five stars! This place is absolutely great and provided us a great base for our Yorkshire 3 peaks jaunt.
We stayed two nights and enjoyed a few pints in the bar accompanied with food that was perfect in every way! The breakfast was just as delightful and Bean truly couldn't do enough for you to make sure you had everything you needed. If you're reading this and are planning a stay, make sure you ask if you could have a chocolate indulgence dessert... trust me!
Very excited to return here for many years to come!
With limited opening hours and no food available to non residents I can't give 5 stars.
The landlord was really nice and friendly.
Had an excellent pint of Ribbleshead Bitter.
The bar is a really nice place to relax full of really old features and furniture.
Shame due to staffing and location it's not open more.
Stopping for a quick pint when 19 mile into the 3 peaks challenge is a must. A pint of Guinness is a great little calorie addition for the last climb
