Directions

You want to visit - You have this in

"Hound and Heather" is the new name for the bar of the Devil's Punchbowl Hotel. Architecturally interesting rather than attractive, the hotel was originally built as a country residence for the son of Lord John Russell, Britain's last Whig Prime minister. The separate bar area is smart, long and shows sports on TV - and, though comfortable, it doesn't feel particularly "cosy". Those with mobility problems should avoid the main car park where there is direct access to the bar via steps, and instead use the smaller car park where there are disabled spaces and level entry to the hotel.

Historic Interest

The hotel was originally built as a country residence for the Hon. Rollo Russell, whose father, Lord John Russell, was England’s first Liberal Prime Minister. Sometime during the early 1900’s the house known then as Thorshill was leased to a part time minister of the local congregational church. He and his wife ran Torshill as a private guesthouse up until 1949. The building has been a hotel ever since.
