This Grade II listed former coaching inn reopened in November 2022 after a sympathetic internal refurbishment, giving it a more comfortable feel. There is a recessed games area and a very large patio and garden area to the rear. The owner/landlord is a real ale enthusiast and offers interesting guest beers of varying styles. The regular bitter and two guest beers, one of which is often a stout, porter or mild, are now served on gravity from a cool room behind the bar. No food but you are welcome to bring in a takeaway. Dogs on leads welcome and children until 9pm. Free car parks are 200 yards away. May sometimes open beyond stated times. Pool, darts and cribbage available.
