Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Stokesay Inn

Traditional pub and now a Bed & Breakfast establishment as well, retaining a twin bar interior. The main one at the front has a dining room attached, with the other having a pool table. Three real ales on handpump: Ludlow Gold (£4.20, but 'end of barrel') plus HPA and Butty Bach from Wye Valley.

Will Larter left this review about Stokesay Inn

This is a red brick pre-war hotel, presumably designed to attract tourist trade and bearing a name associated with the main tourist attraction, though it's oddly placed in an obscure corner of the the back streets of this small town, one of the very few to have been named after a pub. The front bar is fairly basic suburban hotel standard, and there's also a public bar at the back, which is accessed by a door on the village side. Interestingly, there's still an off-sales hatch in the entrance to the latter.

The three hand pumps are on the front bar, with just Wychwood Hobgoblin and Wye Valley HPA available at the time of my visit. I had the HPA, which was OK, though I'm not a huge fan of this very pale beer. The landlord was very friendly and chatty, telling me about another cyclist who had stayed here after bad weather had cut short her day's journey between Lands End & John O'Groats, leaving her to do extra the next day to maintain her eight-day schedule; she was 87 years old...
