This pub successfully manages to retain a traditional village public bar whilst having a busy restaurant at the rear. When you enter from the front, you are in a wood-beamed flagstone bar which leads to a couple of cosy snugs, which are completely unspoilt. Separate restaurant entrance to a very comfortable dining area. The locally sourced food is very good value. Outside is a wonderful display of hanging baskets for most of the year. Large garden filled with play equipment.

This is a good example of how to expand a pub (a rear extension for a restaurant in this case) whilst leaving the old layout mostly intact (here, three small rooms at the front). The snug on the left is full of character with its tiled floor, range-style fireplace and fixed seating against panelled walls.
The Bull & Butcher is an example of the correct way to expand a pub to offer a restaurant by adding an extension to the rear but leaving the three small front rooms little-altered. The snug on the left is full of character with its red tiled floor, range-style fireplace with log fire, fitted seating attached to black painted mainly dado panelling with that on one wall more like a high backed settle. The right-hand room is opened up to the quarry-tiled area in front of the bar, which has modern fittings.
This Pub serves 1 changing beer and 4 regular beers.
