Celebrate the festive season
It’s not Christmas without a family meal at The Hermit
An Inn for 300 years
The Hermit Inn is an iconic pub. Perched on the edge of Ilkley Moor since the time of the horse and cart, the building itself is well known for jutting into the road - claiming many a wing mirror in more recent times. But whilst the means of arrival has changed over the years, the welcome has remained the same; warm and friendly, with a fine selection of cold beers, individually selected wines and freshly prepared delicious food.
Always the warmest of welcomes
It’s the people that make a pub. George and his team are friendly, courteous and professional, as well as being experts on the food, beer and wine they offer. Take a seat next to the wood burning stove in our 300 year old stone flagged tap room whilst The Hermit staff serve you a perfectly poured pint of real ale and delicious home cooked food.
All walks lead to The Hermit
A quick glance at an Ordinance Survey map shows a very curious convergence of footpaths, bridle paths and farm tracks, all crossing the moors and heading up the valley, whether approaching from from north, south, east or west, they all meet at… The Hermit. As well as showing what an asset to the community this pub has always been it is also an opportunity for a bracing stride out following by a perfect pint and a homemade meal. Check out our list of local walks that all lead to The Hermit.
