This pub/restaurant, just off the A380 as you approach Kingskerswell from Newton Abbot, was previously a listed farmhouse. The restaurant specialises in locally sourced fresh food. Externally it has a large car park and a patio area with 3 bench tables outside the main entrance. There is also a large garden with further bench tables, which is accessed to the right, through the bar and restaurant.

Historic Interest

Originally Aller Barton Farm, the land was sold to Devon County Council in 1976 for the building of a new road, (which only took 41 years!) The farm buildings, dating from the 17th century and Grade II listed, were bought by Mr & Mrs Bird, and became a licensed pub called the Birds Nest. It passed through several hands before becoming part of Lionheart Inns of Exeter, then Eldridge Pope before they sold their chain to Hall and Woodhouse. It is now in private ownership. In the left hand room is a late 17th century plaster ceiling.
