This friendly village pub is very much a community affair, housing the local shop run by villagers in outbuildings. A warm welcome is assured in the bar and restaurant, which are both heated by real fires in winter. The beautiful large garden hosts barbecues in summer. Excellent food is locally sourced and home-cooked, and theme food nights are held. Regular events include music jam sessions, quiz nights and tabletop sales. The skittle alley doubles as a function room. A selection of cask ales from local microbrewery Black Bear Brewery is always available.
