Returned to being the Royal Oak after a spell as the John Cabot, this two bar pub underwent a major refurbishment in 2009. The decor has a modern feel to it, with pine wood and plush carpet prominently featured. There is a surprisingly large rear garden children's play area for those balmy summer days that we all wish there were more of. The two changing real ales come from local breweries.
