Charming
Good for special occasions
Great for fine wines

Having always been at the heart of Valley life, the 17th century Shibden Mill Inn was originally a corn and spinning mill, before being converted into a country pub in 1890.

Today’s visitors are welcomed with warm hospitality to enjoy first class dining against an inviting backdrop of open fires, low beamed ceilings and a cosy bar. Eleven individually styled bedrooms make comfortable and luxurious retreats, epitomising boutique country style and featuring lots of thoughtful touches.

And if you can drag yourself away from the Inn, there are wonderful walks from the doorstep and world class attractions within easy reach. For a spot of retail therapy or a cultural fix, Halifax is a 10-minute drive and Leeds is just 30 minutes away.

We have eaten here before and it has been faultless. The french crumpet starter in my opinion just didn’t work - and I was expecting home a made crumpet - not a supermarket one. The sirloin steak was dry and tough not helped by having a blunt steak knife. The accompanying sauce was congealed. My lamb hogget was a tale of two halves - the shredded lamb side dish and pomegranate sauce was amazing - but the rest of the dish was uninspiring with the main lamb meat being quite tough and chewy. £120 for starters mains and a couple of drinks for 2 - it was poor value considering the quality. It was freezing weather outside and the dining area was chilly - bring your coat.

The taster menu plus wine flight was exceptionally good. Very knowledgeable waitresses. Unbelievable value for money. I'd pay at least twice that in Manchester and three times that in London.
