Halfwat stop of from Devon to Scotland Glen Coe
Horrendous journey to the Fox and Pheasant. Worried we would miss the dinner cut off time we called through. Been traveling for over 10 hours! No problem arrive very tied to a lovely bowl of soup. Feel in to bed and had an amazing sleep. Set off next morning after a fantastic breakfast and a lovely packed lunch. Defo stop off again

Stop over
Welcoming helpful staff, very approachable. The room was clean and well presented had everything we needed. However, it was extremely hot and one of the windows didn’t open. I feel they should have prepared for this and provided a fan. However saying that they welcomed the dog and provided a bed and for him. Dinner was very nice and an excellent breakfast.

Stopped here on the way up to Scotland and was terrifically impressed. The venue is sited in a small village around a 15 min drive from Penrith, surrounded by green, picturesque countryside. There is a riverside path close to the pub which is ideal for walking your dog. The pub is very dog friendly and serves great food. The room was extremely comfortable with a tv, modern bathroom and tea/coffee making facilities. Breakfast was served by Steve (the owner) at 0800 who was very chatty and friendly. Overall a great place to stop and hope to return at some point in the future.

Dog friendly accommodation. Clean dog beds, dishes and towels were provided. Very friendly and helpful staff. The woods behind the property provided a lovely setting to allow my hounds to run off lead. Lovely, clean room for humans, as well.

A very comfortable stay in a beautiful old coaching inn. Bed was very comfortable and all amenities supplied. We had an evening meal there which was delicious using locally sourced ingredients. Breakfast was also very good.

Worth the effort of getting to.
The Fox and Pheasant is accessed by a single lane road about 10 minutes drive from the A6. The drive is worth it for a lovely river view over pastures and the delightful food. The ambiance is of a large country Inn.
