Erected in 1657 as King's Farm, this Grade II listed building, which backs onto the river and its weir, is the oldest hotel in Hebden. Now partially opened out, you enter a room containing a vast stone fireplace, sadly no longer in use. The bar stands further back at right angles to the front of the pub, with another very old raised fireplace at the end. This area and the cosy space to the right is decorated with pictures and old books.
Beyond, there's a door leading to the chalet rooms by Hebden Water, which provide excellent accommodation, and to a small but pleasant patio garden by the river. To the left of the entrance there's a lovely bright room for diners, lit by a row of windows above the road, whilst the corridor to the right is decorated with interesting old maps and other documents.
This leads to a further room with another old stone fireplace, attractive china on shelves, as well as an ancient window seat. A wide range of wines are available and there's a comfortable and spacious function room upstairs.
