History here flows as powerfully as the River Wye alongside the pub, particularly in vigorous weather when the Cistercian abbey, just across the road, provides a shelter almost as welcoming as this family-run pub. This building has its origins in the 12th century and is a scheduled monument and listed cider mill. The monks used the main bar as a cider mill and left us their massive stone press, right next to the bar with up to four ales at peak times and one cider (usually Westons). A separate restaurant and several seating areas include a capacious garden room. If seeking to dine in atmospheric surroundings, see if there's space in the Ferryman's Cottage dining room, the oldest part of the building.

Bus stops near the entrance to the Abbey site.

Note winter opening times are more limited so it's best to check before visiting.
