Superbly situated overlooking the Lune estuary: the road here is flooded by the highest tides, but the pub is raised up to avoid them, and the car-park is even higher. Sitting at the front, you can study the bird life, watch the water-skiers (sometimes) or enjoy the view across to the hills. Inside the early 18th-century building, a small bar lies at the centre of three low-beamed rooms which are now decked out in a modern bistro style. In 2012, the floor area was doubled by the opening of a modern extension with picture windows, a balcony and easy wheelchair access. The old part is quite unaffected (the extension is upstairs).

Historic Interest

Main building 1710, extension 1790. Owned by Mitchells 1910-2011. New extension 2012.
