A very friendly 16th century pub, situated next to the church, and is the epitome of a typical village inn. The pub serves up to 8 live beers (mainly sourced from the South West) and is supplemented by several real ciders. The cosy lounge bar is adorned with a large collection of Royal Naval memorabilia, whilst the public bar boasts a pool table, dart board and TVs for sports enthusiasts. Acoustic nights on Wednesdays, with meat raffle and karaoke on Friday's. Regular beer and cider festivals are held. The pub is allegedly haunted, by Captain Hinds. Dogs welcome!
