The Anglers Rest, Hope Valley

Village pub given a new lease of life as a community enterprise, now incorporating a Post Office and the daytime Rest Café within the multi-room interior, with the more traditional bar and two seating / dining areas to the left of the front entrance. Also has some garden seating at the side and back of the car park. A better selection of cask ales that I expected, with a pair each from Abbeydale (Daily Bread and Moonshine) and Neepsend (Asar and Helhest, and both in fine form) - from the five handpumps. Overall, a decent place to stop if walking in the area.

Good Beer Guide 2019 - but I expect its more to do with the community efforts in keeping it going (attache is a cafe, shop and a post office) rather the quality of the beer. The Chatsword Gold was in average condition. The pub was nice and busy, with bar and separate dining area. Could do with some comfier seats - but I had been walking 16 miles.
