The Alford arms is by far one of the best pubs in the area nestled in the countryside with lots of lovely woodland or scenic walks nearby, food is delicious. They are dog and family friendly and also have lots of outside space. Would be advisable to book to avoid disappointment.

It's a pleasant walk with nice countryside scenery as you head over the rolling green hills. There are plenty of places near for the trailhead to get some refreshments afterwards.
