See more about this pub on CAMRA's national web site
Situated in the countryside between Bristol and Bath this attractive multi-roomed 18th-century coaching inn has retained many original features, such as the rare cash register handpumps, flagstone floors, open fires and settles. After an unexpected closure, the pub reopened under new management in September 2026. A slope at the side of the pub gives access to the large garden, where there are also toilet facilities. The car park is the other side of the busy road. Buses stop directly outside. The kitchen is temporarily closed for renovation works so currently no food available (as at 1 October 2026).
