Derby Arms

Arrived early for 2 night stay so had lunch in the bar - really good. Also had evening meal in restaurant on second night - again superb food. Staff all friendly. Room was good but no hairdryer provided. Breakfast well cooked and generous servings. Apart from cooked only yoghurt, cereals and fruit juice. Would stay again if in the area

Spent a delightful weekend at The Derby Arms while visiting family in the area. On Friday, we dined in the restaurant, where the shared starters and desserts, along with individual mains, amounted to approximately £50 per person, inclusive of a bottle of wine - all of which was thoroughly enjoyable. On Saturday evening we indulged in bar snacks and a few drinks, another great experience. Heads-up, the full English breakfast served was impeccable! The rooms provided a clean and cozy atmosphere, equipped with all the essentials for a comfortable stay - from a snug bed to a decent shower! You may hear the music downstairs as the rooms are directly above the restaurant and pub... but it's off at 11. The standout feature, however, was the exceptional staff. Warm, professional, and attentive, they truly added to the experience. Having booked a month in advance through the pub's website, the cost worked out to just a little over £70 per night for the room, inclusive of breakfast - providing decent value for the quality of accommodation and service received. Without hesitation, I'd recommend The Derby Arms.

Food was terrible and overpriced. There were more flies than humans, they are trying to serve overpriced food, for the "Mediterranean or Korean" palate than English in rural Lancashire. Far too expensive. We spent the entire ruined meal swatting the flies away. Definitely not value for money. Will never go again.
