This is a lovely pub with lovely staff and fab food. Breakfast was excellent. Just a bit out of Brampton than I realised but saying that, the surrounding area was really scenic.

Quite village pub in a quiet village

Great staff and a very warm, friendly and efficient check-in. A great touch, much appreciated, was a table was booked for me incase I wanted to dine in. My room was in a small annex to the Blacksmith Arms. It is generously termed by estate agents as cosy. The bathroom was far larger and included a bath and separate shower. All was clean with a generous application of bleach. The room was very quiet except for the occasional screech of either pheasant or peacock. I couldn't make my mind up which. Meals were a good portion but not much choice for those growing number of people who prefer not to eat bits of dead animal. Meal with drink and starter around £25. Very quiet village with the blacksmith the only real attraction.
