Fresh home cooked meals are served daily in
the bar with traditional roasts being served on Sundays.
The newly constructed 'Swinden' room, with views over the Langsett
moors is ideal for families wishing to visit
the Dog and Partridge. This is also available for less formal
private functions and business meetings.
Entertainment is provided most nights throughout
the week.
The Dog and Partridge has been famous for over 30 years for
its traditional sing-a-longs that take place
every Saturday and Sunday evening. The resident organist accompanies
these and all newcomers are welcome. |
Situated on the old medieval salt way route,
this isolated inn, with a history that can be traced back to
the Elizabethan period, was originally a farmhouse and alehouse,
supplying shelter and refreshment to travellers crossing the
hostile moors of the Pennines.
Originally known as Border Hill House and owned
by the Gothard family, the inn became known as the Dog and Partridge
upon the receipt of its first licence in 1740.
Since that time it has been under the ownership of many of the
local prominent landowning families such as the Payne's of Frickley
Hall, the Bosville's of Gunthwaite Hall and the Pilkington's
of Chevet Hall who still own the surrounding grouse
moors to this day.
Today the Dog and Partridge is a family run inn
and hotel, which is open all year and offers a warm
and friendly service to all who visit.
