the black lion is great.....its about 10 mile from me...recommend the hot beef rolls!

there is a great camp site "Glencote" just a steam train ride away( the train stops at the pub!!!)....also a good canalside pub called "the boat" 5mins walk from the campsite.

as for sleepy spots.....the whole place is pretty rural...but i cant really say I know of any.

if you highlight one / some on google maps I could give an opinion on them...if it helps.

Cheers Keith, I think I spotted that before, instead of bearing left to the pub car park do you head right and follow the road to the bottom ? (Hope that made some sense :) )
