The Dudley pub on the doorstep of stunning nature reserve
As pubs continue to battle the cost of living crisis, the Express & Star continues its Love Your Local series which celebrates our local inns.
There are perhaps few better ways of ending a day taking than enjoying the delights of a local beauty spot with a relaxing drink and a bite to eat.
Saltwells Inn, on the doorstep of the Saltwells National Nature Reserve in Brierley Hill, is a real travellers' rest for weary hikers and locals alike. It is also steeped in history.
Owner Dean Pearsall describes the venue in Saltwells Lane as very much food and family-oriented and beer lovers tend to agree as the beer gets a thumbs-up as well.
Described by the Dudley & South Staffordshire branch of the Campaign for Real Ale (Camra) as "a privately owned pub, renowned for its excellent value food".
Camra adds: "It's a very child-friendly pub offering tasty meals for the kids, plenty of outdoor seating plus a garden and play area."
The current building is believed to date back to the 1930s, but the original building dates back even further.
