Nestled on the edge of Exmoor National Park in the beautiful village of Upton, Lowtrow Cross Inn is a quintessential country pub with fantastic bed and breakfast accommodation to boot. The building dates back to the 17th century when it operated as a working farm, and the present-day pub retains its rustic charm, complete with roaring open fires and exposed wooden ceiling beams.
Those visiting can expect a friendly welcome from staff and regulars, creating a warm and friendly atmosphere that puts you at ease from the moment you step through the door. If it’s a bite to eat you’re after, you’ll be more than satisfied with the food on offer at Lowtrow Cross Inn. Start with the likes of farmhouse pâté, homemade Thai crab cakes with sweet chilli dipping sauce, or beer-battered squid rings. To follow, there’s a brilliant selection of dishes to choose from, including steak and ale pie, tender slow-cooked lamb shank and pan-fried Newland cod served atop champ mash with mussels and creamy leek sauce. You’ll also find a selection of tasty burgers and succulent grill options, and food can be ordered to take away. If you fancy a weekend away, why not make the Lowtrow Cross Inn your base? Each of the three newly refurbished en-suite bedrooms has all the amenities you could need for a comfortable stay, along with thoughtful touches that make for a memorable experience. Well-behaved dogs are welcome too, so there’s no need to leave your pooch at home.
