Jonbag, the post is still there and he didn't say he stumbled. Now stop clogging this thread with rubbish.

The Old Poet's Corner, Ashover

This pub just has everything right! A beautiful building, great range of beers well-kept, real fires, great traditional English food at reasonable prices, superb atmosphere.

Unfortunately for us, kids only allowed in the restaurant area. Not too much of a problem as it's got a really nice atmosphere, but it meant we couldn't sit by the open fire in the bar area.

They make their own sausages but, disappointingly, only about half the range was available. I'm a big blackpudding fan but the pork and blackpudding sausages were not to my taste. It wouldn't put me off going back as the food generally was very good.
