Originally a cottage built of stones from the beach, it has been an inn since 1860 and in the same family since 1921. The public bar at the front was two small rooms until a partition was taken away in 1980s. The combined room contains two sections of possibly Victorian fixed seating and a bar back fitting from the late 1950s but the present bar counter dates from the 1990s - previously it ran around the door to the rooms at the rear, as indicated by a drawing on the wall. Note the Lichfield City Brewery Co. mirror. As you walk towards the rear of the pub note the former off sales compartment on the right. The rear bar is now 'Sarah Pugh's Gallery’ but it still retains a 1960s bar with Formica top and a bar back fitting of a similar age, also a 1920s fireplace with tiles at floor level. Through a widish gap is the family room with a table tennis table (£1 to borrow the bats and ball!).

Upstairs is Above Stairs Antiques, a well-stocked collectables/bric-a-brac shop open for purchases from 11am to 5.30pm in summer and by appointment in winter.
