This 1745 former farmhouse was converted to the licensed trade in 1812 and still has a regionally important historic pub interior. Family owned since 1910, the pub has three quality bars adorned with a veritable treasure trove of 19th and 20th century maritime memorabilia. Fully residential, the pub offers an interesting menu of fish, fresh crab meals and snacks.
Two star - A pub interior of very special national historic interest
Listed status: Not listed
Dating to 1745 and close to the harbour, the pub has developed into a small hotel which has been in the same ownership since 1910. The public bar was once the two original rooms but has altered little in the last 70 years except for part of the cellar being converted into the 'Bar Deck' at the back. The counter, bar-back, fireplace and panelling are all of a good age and supplemented by an amazing collection of nautical artefacts collected over many years. In 1954, the former commercial room became the 'Cabin Bar' and is untouched since with its ply-panelled walls, counter with Formica top and other period fittings. Part of the former private quarters are now a reception and dining rooms.
