Attractive, 16th century Cotswold stone pub, situated in reputedly Britain's most haunted village. Two bars, one with a dining area (until 9pm). The pub has been newly refurbished and the large rear garden paved with a new permanent covered area. The garden leads to skittle alley/function room called the Pavilion. This has also been refurbished and is for hire with its own private garden.

Popular with race goers, especially during Gold Cup week, being the closest pub to the racecourse, which is reflected in the collection of equine prints. There is free off-road parking opposite.

Beers are from the Butcombe range. The food is primarily home made (notably the desserts) and includes cheeses from a local producer. A cider festival is held in August.

Closest bus is the N but the more frequent A serves the village so a slightly longer walk.

Historic Interest

Grade 2 listed
