Trawden Arms Community Owned Pub

Comfortable place to stay, good...

Liked: We chose to stay at The Trawden Arms after learning of its history and the fact that it was community owned. The standards all round were excellent - friendly and professional staff, comfortable accommodation and delicious food - good value breakfasts and lovely evening meals. On the Saturday evening of our stay, there was a live band and the pub was buzzing. We were made to feel welcome and were chatting to other customers who were shareholders in the pub and who were very rightly proud of what the community had achieved, not only with the Trawden Arms but also in with the other community facilities they had all worked hard to create. We would happily stay there again as there is much to explore in the local area.
Disliked: Our room was beautifully and tastefully decorated and furnished, fabulous shower. The only area that we felt could be improved was the main lighting. The vintage style bulbs meant that the light levels were very low and given our room was on the ground floor and near some outdoor seating, for privacy we needed to have the curtains closed most of the time we were in the room (perhaps a voile or venetian blind would help negate that). But that is a very small concern and did not impact at all with our satisfaction for the venue overall.

Great place to stay.

Liked: Everything - the room was perfect, clean, fresh, good size and separate from the pub itself with good sound proofing. There was a welcome tray, fridge and bathroom with bath and a powerful shower. We ate dinner and breakfast- there was a good selection on the menu for both and quality was great and portion sizes were generous. Everyone we met was friendly.

Absolutely wonderful.

Liked: Breakfast was excellent our room was amazing far exceeded our expectations. It's situated in a picturesque area a bit of a challenge to get to but well worth it. Would definitely stay again. The back story of the community clubbing together to buy it to save it adds to the charm.
Disliked: Perhaps checking in. We arrived on a Friday night after a very long journey. The pub was very busy and people were clamouring at the bar to order food and drinks. We had to wait with them. Perhaps a bell at the end of the bar for accommodation guests to ring when they arrive to alert the staff to the fact you are there could be considered.
