A summer break isn't the same if you have to leave the pup behind 🐕

Our Shepherd’s Delight sits right near some of the best walking routes in the county. It’s simple, it’s cosy, and most importantly, your dog gets to enjoy the views right alongside you.

Found in the archive, we're taking it back to 1945 with this photo.

Eight decades of good food, good drink and a good night's sleep - and we're not stopping now.

We think that's something worth raising a glass to. 🥂
