| We referred to AA Guide’s and several Internet sites before booking to stay at The Bruce Arms, West Tanfield, Yorkshire, on Saturday 5th January ’08, attracted by the pub being owned by a renowned chef and every comment praising the food as some of the best ever tasted. The landlady greeted us with “your early! I’ve got a shooting party arriving shortly!”, we immediately felt unwelcome. The Bruce is under new management. The present owners have two cats, which they feed on the stairs up to the accommodation, so they are littered with cat food and bowls. The stairs and landing stink of dog and cat faeces and urine, sufficient to make you feel sick! There was also a pair of dirty boxer shorts left on the stairs! Our bedroom was clean and tidy, had it been elsewhere we would have happily stayed. Unfortunately it was next to the family lounge and small children appeared to be left unattended as the landlord worked in the kitchen and the landlady was behind the bar. The children were noisy and ran around banging doors, making it impossible to relax. The stench from the staircase wafted into the bedroom. If this standard of hygiene was acceptable to the Landlord/Lady, it certainly was not to us. We could not stay in the room and had no wish to eat in this establishment, so we left. We decided to stay at the Stavely Arms, 2 miles from the Bruce in North Stainley. It was wonderful, with Mike and Elaine being the perfect hosts, the food fantastic and the accommodation being exceptional (£59 for B&B with the most comfortable kingsize bed!)
