A Victorian building with impressive gables, and stone window surrounds and mullions. The part wood-panelled interior is divided into three distinct areas (for drinkers, diners and games-players), and has a small display of cricketing memorabilia. The pub has fishing rights on the Avon, and offers accommodation for up to eight in a lodge. Nearby are the Elizabethan Breamore House and its Countryside Museum, the Anglo-Saxon St Mary's church and, a mile's walk north-west of these, a mizmaze. Live music and quizzes feature monthly. The pub serves a house beer 'The Bat & Ball'.
Before Covid the pub also served a couple of guest ales but we heard in November 2021 that the range is now just the two Ringwood beers.
This Pub serves no changing beers and 2 regular beers.
