A large, solid-looking, half-rendered building on fringe of village. Cosy, with a mixed clientele of varying ages enjoying the well-appointed surroundings - plenty of dark wood, traditional fittings, fireplaces, Toby jugs, old bottles, and snug corners to nestle in. Low-ceilinged in part to add to that feeling of homeliness. Welcoming home-cooked food from a varied menu, including salad bar is served most days (carvery Sundays). Much used by the community who enjoy the weekly quiz and curry nights. What was a heated outside drinking and eating area was converted in late 2024 to a multi-purpose room, in that it serves as an additional room when the pub is busy at weekends; a function room; and in good weather, the retractable roof can be pulled back leaving an outside area..
