The Clachaig Inn, Clachaig

A retro rate, I visited The Clachaig on Aug 30th 2014 after climbing Bidean nam Bian, and heading back along The Lost Valley, a long hot day! We nipped in here for a well earned pint on the way back to Glen Nevis. It was quite quiet, just a few folk in the large bar, a good atmosphere tho! I enjoyed the pint of Trade Winds, one of the many handpumps available that day. The staff were friendly and asked where we'd been and recommended other local walks. I'd definitely return!

Little Chester Ale House, Derby

A cracking wee pub, constantly changing range of well kept realales. No telly or other electric distractions, a must visit!

Furnace Inn, Derby

Visited on a Tuesday evening. There were a few customers inside, and a few sitting in the garden at the rear. The staff were pleasant, the pub itself was clean and comfortable, the loos were clean and well maintained. A large board advertised the available beers, listing them from lightest in colour to darkest, as well as the ABV, it also listed the beers due to come on. The main reason for visiting the pub is the beer, it's the home of the Shiny Brewery, and the beers are superb, well, the ones I tried were! The guest beers are also well looked after, a "must visit" for that reason alone! A few other good pubs nearby, Little Chesters Alehouse, a micro pub, on Chester Green is well worth the short walk.
