  • Historic Interior

An outstanding black and white half-timbered hotel and bar dating back to the 1590s - with direct links to the Civil War. Various comfortably-furnished seating areas, with discreet nooks and corners, surround a central bar-servery facing a splendid fireplace. The restaurant, with its superb wood-panelling, offers affordable fine cuisine using locally-sourced ingredients, while conventional bar snacks are also available in the bar.

One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest

Listed status: II*

The old dining room is the star attraction here, featuring some of the finest oak panelling in the country. There is a heavily carved frieze plus a number of pilasters while the east wall fireplace has a richly carved Jacobean overmantle. Two bullet holes in the panelling are said to be from the civil war whilst an officer's sword caused a slice in one of the beams.
