Duke of Cumberland, Henley (Duke of Cumberland Arms)


Directions

You want to visit - You have this in

Stunning 15th-century inn nestling against the hillside and set in over three acres of terraced gardens with extensive views. The rustic front bar has scrubbed-top tables, benches and a log fire, while to the rear is a new extension that blends in perfectly with the original pub and offers much-needed additional space, particularly for diners. Outside is a smokers' shelter with its own woodburner, as well as a hireable, heated live sports area with large screen (Table 101). A former local CAMRA Pub of the Year, this is a rural gem.

Two star - A pub interior of very special national historic interest

Listed status: II

Within this eighteenth-century building lies a pub with a couple of simple but truly wonderful linked rooms at the front, looking much as they would have done when the clientele was made up of farm workers. Red quarry-tiles cover both floors, the walls and ceilings are cased in boarding and there is bench seating throughout. The counters in both rooms have matchboard fronts and curved ends although their date is hard to ascertain (perhaps interwar?). Some of the panelling between the two rooms is evidently quite recent. The farm workers may have gone and the pub is now renowned for high-quality food yet it still has a welcoming, true pub atmosphere. Beer is drawn from casks stillaged behind the servery. Outside gents’. There is a modern but attractive timber garden pavilion to increase the undercover customer accommodation. The restaurant area at the rear does not impact on the historic rooms. Delightful gardens in which a pond houses trout for the pot.
