There is something special about staying at a pub with rooms, whether it's the exposed wooden beams, the cosy little nooks with armchairs and a roaring fire, or knowing a hearty plate of really good pub grub is just steps from your door.
Good pub accommodation is usually judged by how comfortable the rooms are and how traditional features have been kept– think king-sized beds, antique furniture and a decent en-suite (a roll-top bath is usually at the top of our list). Bonus points go to places with critically acclaimed chefs in the kitchen, local ales on tap, and a welcoming place to cosy up when the British weather inevitably lets you down.
