Thousands of Telegraph readers voted for their favourite pub and the overall winner The Cartford Inn was chosen by the newspaper’s editors for its authenticity, warm welcome and quirky take on a countryside pub.
The judges commented that: “This quirky inn is full of its own delights; stylish interiors, fabulous food and helpful staff. This might explain why it was named Telegraph & Sawday’s Pub of the Year in 2020, a richly deserved award. It’s a mecca for locals, who come to eat, drink and gossip. Outside, views stretch across to the Trough of Bowland. Inside, delicious food waits and the pub now runs a takeaway service for locals, Taste of the Inn at Home”.
The Cartford Inn is just two minutes walk from Merlewood Country Park, so well worth a visit!
