The Rock is a beautiful rural pub located in Tockholes village, 2 miles west of the town of Darwen. The pub boasts impressive countryside views and benefits from many walkers, cyclists and visitors to the area.
The pub is situated on the main road leading into the village just before the local primary school. It has a large car park and an attractive outside area used for drinks and dining. The interior of the pub is made up of 3 seating areas, either side of the main entrance and a raised area at the rear served by a central bar. The commercial kitchen is well equipped and has a preparation area and wash up space. The pub is beautifully decorated and a roaring open fire instantly gives a warm welcome.
Living accommodation consists of 4 bedrooms, kitchen, bathroom, lounge and a dining area.
Visitors come from the local village and surrounding areas. Currently the food offer is home cooked with a Mediterranean twist. There is a weekly pub quiz, themed food nights, live entertainment and seasonal events.
