Camping (and drinking!) in the Shropshire Hills
A camp site that’s only 10 walking minutes from Bishops Castle that has 6 pubs (2 which are attatched to their own breweries) – pretty ideal. The car was parked upon arrival and didn’t move until we left the campsite 2 days later.
Rob enjoying the view
Only had the opportunity to visit 2 of the 6 pubs – and we chose the ones which brewed their own stuff, Yum!
The 6 Bells, had a large selection of their own beer (all quite smokey tasting) but after a tasting session we scarpered when we looked at the food board it seemed to be pretty average but not cheap (approx £9 up) The lunch time menu seemed better and looked really nice.
The favourite for us was The Three Tuns –
Rob loved The Three Tuns - Hic!
was apprehensive about this as we’d read that they had recently had an extensive make-over . The final result is really nice, there is a small bar round one side, which leads round to the ‘snug’ and then a larger area which appears to be the main food area (although we ate in the snug area) The food was delicious and original (approx £10 -main course) The beers were lovely - would recommend giving this place a try if you’re in the area.
Rob was happy to leave after a couple of days though, his robot legs were tired from exploring the hills and his robot tummy was growing round from snaffling too much beer and food, everything in moderation Rob, even when it’s lovely.
