If you take the idea that the Highwayman inn was an inn in the 18th century, where Lancashire Highwaymen who were notorious in the area used to stay. In times when they were not telling the people who travelled the roads, to stand and deliver, with the pinch of salt, you have to remember that the Highwayman inn at Burrow, Kirkby, Lonsdale has managed to make judges stand and deliver the top UK newcomer inn award to them.
Nevertheless, the story lends a lot of romantic mystery to the atmosphere of this coaching inn, and now that its fame has spread far and wide, you can be sure that people come exploring the charming byways of Nether Burrow to enjoy really top-quality regional food in this quaint and charming inn.
Ribble Valley Inns decided to take up this historical landmark, in partnership with a local brewer named Daniel Thwaites and now, after a renovation, which cost them €1.2 million, and a menu at the pub inspired by Northcote manor’s chef patron, Nigel Haworth, you are in for an experience of a lifetime. Apart from this, you are going to have your choice of drinks, taken from the cellars of Daniel Thwaites, whose family has been in the business for the past 200 years. Therefore, you are going to see a bewildering array of ciders and cask ales, and wines chosen for you by Craig Bancroft of Northcote Manor.
The atmosphere of the pub and the inn is welcoming with stone floors, solid wooden furniture and log fires in the winter, keeping up with the old world charm, with a modern twist.
