Friendly stone-built free house in the heart of the village, run by the same landlord since 2007. With the bar towards the back, the pub has a welcoming feel and a coal fire. Attracts local trade particularly on Monday and Wednesday quiz evenings and is popular for the home cooked food. Accommodation is available in three ensuite bedrooms.
