Pelican Inn

The Muir area includes a forest and a beach. The forest has limited parking and as we drove towards the beach we saw signs stating that the forest parking was full (it was about 11am). There is a bus service, so if you get there too late you can take the bus to the forest.

Apart from the beach and the forest, there are a few attractions (see also) including the Pelican Inn. The Pelican Inn, as you would expect, has a pub and a few rooms available for people who would like to stay ($200-$300/night). We stopped there for lunch. The restaurant is very "English Pub" with a big fireplace, English menu and a waiter with an English accent. The smokey smell also makes it nice and homely. I had bangers and mash whilst Louise had fish and chips. The sauce was called ketchup and the mustard tasted American, but apart from that it was great.

If we ever stay at the Pelican Inn, room 7 looks like the best. It has direct access to the Snug (private bar for guests) and good views.

The Pelican Inn also had some nice cars in the car park.
