9.6/10 Exceptional! (231 reviews)
What we loved the most is that the hotel is dog friendly! They really made our fur baby feel at home by bringing a dog bowl to our room and a dog bed so that felt really special! The hotel in general has such a cosy vibe, the staff are extremely friendly and the location is in the central of everything! I highly recommend this hotel and will be staying again in the future.

Pike O' Stickle is the site of a Stone Age axe factory. Archaeologists have found discarded axe heads strewn on the scree which descends into the valley below. A kind of prehistoric rubbish dump for axe makers. Years ago people used the scree as a quick descent route to the valley floor. It's very much frowned upon nowadays and the scree is much depleted. I wonder how Stone Age man returned to the valley without walking boots to keep dry and safe.
