Yorkshire - Tough Mudder UK - Mud and Obstacle Course Run

Tough Mudder Yorkshire at Broughton Hall isn’t just tough, it’s the muddiest course on the calendar. Winding through untouched terrain, woodland slogs, and leg-screaming hills, it delivers ankle-deep sludge, scenic suffering, and a healthy dose of northern grit. Set in the grounds of a grand Georgian estate, it’s as brutal as it is beautiful. Easily accessible from northern cities, but once you’re out there, it’ll test you every step of the way.

Sunday Roasts

Served every Sunday.Bookings recommended. Walk-ins always welcome where we can. Our roasts are all about the classics done properly: generous cuts, crisp potatoes, seasonal vegetables and proper gravy. Whether you’re in for a long lunch, a post-walk plate, or a pint that accidentally turns into a roast, this is pub food the way it should be – comforting, well-cooked, and worth coming back for. Book here.
