Close to the village green and pond, the Star presents an attractive facade with its part tiled-hung and virginia creeper-clad exterior. Internally, wood panelling, flooring and beams abound and drinkers and diners may choose from seating arranged around the bar, a small flagstone floored dining area complete with wood burner to the left, in the cosy snug or in a spacious rear room which is also available to hire for functions. An inviting paved and decked garden flanks one side while there is a separate garden with a children's play area. Hearty pub grub including signature pies are highly recommended. The staff are friendly and attentive.

A quiz and curry night is held on the 3rd Wednesday of the month and open mic night on the final Thursday.
