if you are after a drink we suggest either the Flying Monk Pub who offer a wide selection of drinks including ales, still ciders and more or the Waverley which sells lots of local ales, ciders and lagers! Both pubs are just a 5 minute walk from the finish line.
All of our recommended places are very dog friendly.
