This Pub is Temporarily Closed
Rambling, impressive stone inn in the centre of a picture postcard village. Different areas of the pub have distinct characters. The black and red tiled floor of the public bar, complete with wood burning stove, is home to locals and walkers. Other areas are home to the many visitors drawn by the village and nearby Hever and Chiddingstone castles and Penshurst Place. A secluded and comfortable snug room is available to the right on entering the pub while a separate function room is available off the rear garden. Relax awhile in the secluded courtyard garden or dine in the restaurant. Pictures of bygone village scenes adorn the walls.
Historic Interest
National Trust owned Tudor building
One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest
Listed status: II*
Behind the long tile-hung frontage (with central brick bay), lies a timber-framed building perhaps dating from the early seventeenth century. The Castle has an utterly traditional small public bar with a red and black quarry-tiled floor, full-height matchboard-panelled walls, an old brick fireplace and some simple bench seating. The counter could date from interwar times: the routine bar-back shelves are hard to date. The saloon bar accessed from the left-hand side of the building is in three distinct parts. The centre section contains a bar counter and may date from interwar times. To the left is a small seating are including some old benches and to the right down a couple of steps is a tiny alcove called 'the Confessional' with more basic seating. There is a small dining room to the right of the public bar and another at the rear.
This Pub serves 1 changing beer and 2 regular beers.
