The Clientele are - a few are in their 30's, a couple of lad's in their 20's and then mainly older people! No Trouble here though. Would be good if they attracted a better mix! You see the odd loud mouth, but they don't tend to stay very long!
The beer garden is nice on summer days and they have a covered smoking area outside and heaters (al ..."

There's excellent real ale, a clientele which provides conversation that runs the full gamut from odd to weird (but always amusing), there's football and rugby on the TV, and as if that wasn't enough, I gather Jon's in high-lev ..."

"The Park Hotel boasts of a great location and a very large building, which the pub seems to be making good use of in the past couple of years and growing from strength to strength. A beautiful beer garden in the back and a smaller one overlooking the main road at the front makes the perfect place to drink a cold beer in the English summer.

"The Collegian is, strictly speaking, a club rather than a “pub”, with a history dating back to around 1933. However, it is regarded locally as a top real ale venue, and was awarded the Lunesdale Camra “Pub of the Year” award in 2003, 2005 and 2006. It also features in the Good Beer Guide, and I understand that CAMRA members are admitted if they sho ..."
