This Pub is Closed Long Term

Large open-plan pub with a single bar, separate function/pool room and beer garden to the rear. Away from the town centre, in the Newport area of Barnstaple, this friendly local, with its long-serving landlord, has something of the feel of a village pub.

Information for this venue is provided by the North Devon Branch of CAMRA
