Two roomed, cosy village pub -- one containing the bar and a welcoming fire, the other more of dining area (alothough food yet to be introduced after village buyout, see below). In the meantime, food trucks, such as a horsebox serving pizza, make occasional visits. Set in a pleasant garden and in an area with extensive views of the Chilterns and Aylesbury Vale.

Pub reopened in December 2024 having been bought by the Ashendon Community Pub Society Limited (a Community Benefit Society) in September 2024. Currently being run by local people, they are looking for a tenant to run the pub on a permanent basis. It is a vital local asset for local villages such as Winchendon, Westcott and Dorton, which have all lost pubs in recent years. There are plans for the food offering and the B&B rooms.

Information for this venue is provided by the Aylesbury Vale & Wycombe Branch of CAMRA
