This used to be a basic climbers' boozer, but it's been, sadly, updated. It still provides a welcome to all who come off the hill. A real fire in winter, good beer, with extra guest beers in summer, and open for breakfast and flask-filling in the morning. The old verandah, which was open-fronted, with a corrugated plastic roof has, alas, been incorporated into, the main body of the pub. How I long for those heady summer nights when, after a day of heavy rain, you could drink there outside, with the river roaring below. All good things etc.......but out of the ashes the phoenix awakes, and unless you knew the old Scafell you wouldn't complain. It's just been tarted up a tad. |
