Fiddler's Green


The Fiddler's is a fabulous place for trad music, with live bands every weekend and impromptu sessions that get the whole bar joining in. The Guinness is pretty good, and you'll find one of the 10 Game of Thrones carved doors from the Dark Hedges here. In the upstairs B&B, comfortable guest rooms start from £80.
