The best pubs with beer gardens where you can book a room for less than £40 a night
A UK holiday is looking like the only option this year as travel bans across Europe are enforced.
Thankfully, there are lots of pubs to choose from this year which you can book a night’s stay before heading downstairs for a pint.
Even better, despite gloomier weather in recent days, many establishments in the UK have outdoor spaces and beer gardens to make the most of the rest of the summer.
Out of 47,000 pubs in the UK there are 27,000 with gardens, according to The British Beer & Pub Association.
We’ve rounded up the best pubs you can book a short weekend break in, all for under £40 a night – and they all have a beer garden too.
